about Sôftìç:  Sôftìç plays improvised music accompanied by  
improvised visuals. The music ranges from electronic noisescapes over  
free-jazz to what sounds like improvised classical music. The band is  
inspired by the impro-scenes in New York, Berlin and Tokyo, i.e.  
people like Paul Bley, Jimmy Guiffre, Ikue Mori, Keiji Haino,  
Burkhard Beins a.o. The visuals are created on a computer using home- 
made software with quick and intuitive controls that has an abundance  
of visual possibilities. Besides a lot of "manual" effects/ 
manipulations, the dynamics in the music can control the picture  
directly using microphones. Live-video from cameras on stage can also  
be used. This allows for a closer dialog with the improvised music  
than could be accomplished by just playing videoclips in random order.
