2009 release ** "„Cooks & Devils“, a single track culled from a performance at the Kunstverein Göttingen in Summer of last year, shows just how far Ignaz Schick has come. The „Snake Figure Arkestra“, the latest formation to flow from Schick's fantastical fluidum, is centered around an enduring partnership with Marcel Türkowsky but, needless to say, again open to external input and to debate, discussion and critical discourse: The Arkestra has already joined forces with Drone-Surrealist Christoph Heemann and Sound Artist Michael Northam in the past and looks intent on continuing this creative exchange with likeminded souls and dissenting voices. As proficient as both Schick and Türkowsky (whose projectology is almost as extensive and eclectic as his friend's) have become in joining the most diverse sources into a fluent continuum, one can still hear the sympathetic „childish curiosity“ which ignited their passion for working together in the first place."
