Mykkä has been presented live during Cartes Flux Festival, in CARTES, in Espoo, Finland, in Octobre 2010.
Mykkä has been and wish to be presented as a sort of performative / live video and sound installation, since the audience is asked to experience it with a start and end, and in a specific sound environment.
The sound level will be set in purpose very loud or too loud, so that the audience is then invited to wear noise breaker headset from start to end.

Photographs are printed on liquid emulsion, frozen into ice blocks. They get destroyed by melting process. In result, time lapse video of the process are created, and edited for a dialogue in a triptych screen.
MUTE has been first presented at Cartes Flux Festival 2010, in Octobre 2010, in Espoo, Finland, as a performance (original as large HD 1 screen video projection, sound system and sub bass, noise breaker, ice, light), which combines Mutel’s ice videos with Murtomaa’s music.
The work enables the audience to spend a moment inside ice.
The audience is asked to wear noise breaker.
(the work can also be shown as a video single projection on screen, but better as a data HD video). This works is also based on and is a variation from video installation “In Cryo Video” (3D relief- 3 screen -2006)
