DESCRIPTION:A/V performance in which percussion and artificial language for
	m an imagined\nbody of rhythm and exhaustion\n\nOn the Thursday of ADE\, t
	he multi-talented artist presents a special A/V\nperformance at Paradiso f
	or the first time\, titled Umzimba.\n\nZimbabwe-born and Amsterdam-based D
	J and producer State OFFF is rapidly emerging\nas a standout name in the i
	nternational club scene. He blends influences from\naround the world\, inc
	luding São Paulo’s baile funk\, Baltimore club\, London bass\,\nand Durban
	’s gqom \, an energetic South African dance style known for its raw\,\nsyn
	copated rhythms. Fans know him for his productions\, including his debut E

	n this work\, heavy\npercussion from live hardware sequencers interacts wi
	th a language model that\ntranslates sound into visuals. The piece explore
	s a kind of “phantom experience”\nof a body under strain: sweat\, fatigue\
	, and exhaustion\, even though no physical\nbody is present.\n\nThe result
	 is a dialogue between analogue rhythm and digital intelligence\, where\ns
	ound becomes image and rhythm transforms into fragmented\, poetic language
