Known for her energetic presence in punk bands Autor and Gomme, and the icy minimalism of her solo synths, Todt’s creative range reaches a new dimension with this flute project, wholly recorded using an array of steel tubes. Adapted into a modular installation, these tubes allow fragments of flute notes to be played collectively - each mouthpiece activating a separate resonant voice, yet forming a single unified organism when brought together live.​

For One and Many Flutes, Todt recorded alone, drawing attention to the process of gradual, physical activation and breath. In performance settings, however, the instrument becomes a collaborative entity as a group activates the installation, embodying Todt’s fascination with shared gestures and the intersection of body and sound. This approach recalls the human voice’s similarities to wind instruments - where air and resonance form a dynamic, living channel for sound and meaning. The modular nature of the instrument echoes Todt’s interest in fragmentation and recombination: each element holds its own, yet reveals new possibilities through collective action and attentive experimentation.

The album is packaged in a sleeve designed by Jeroen Wille, featuring silkscreen details and images of the installation. Listeners are invited to encounter music as both art and artifact—the experience extends beyond passive listening, activating slow, ritualistic motion, and echoing the aesthetics of Annea Lockwood, Albert Mayr, and traditions of Japanese flute music. Todt’s practice is grounded in the potential for every object to become a site of play and encounter, dissolving distinctions between creator, performer, and participant. At its core, One and Many Flutes offers a contemplative yet playful meditation on resonance, accessibility, and the generative possibilities of community—a journey through sound that prioritizes tactile discovery, subtle transformation, and the gentle, insistent force of breath set free in metal and space.​
