Physic3 - sound art performance and installation::: homemade and
hacked electronics and programming
this 3rd annual event held at Beyond Baroque in Venice will be
happening this year sometime in April. it is a smorgasbord of
experimental music and sound art, and features 6-8 performers and 2-4
installations. i've had live video in the past and would consider it
again though i don't have the resources to provide projection
equipment.
the focus is on custom interfaces for sound-making in the acoustic,
electronic, and digital realms, with an emphasis on live performance
of physical processes. you can interpret this widely (and wildly),
the only thing i know for sure is i don't really care for straight
laptop performances (glorified tape music) but i can be swayed if the
material is - how shall i say - really good and conceptually engaging.
i'm looking for proposals for 5-15 minute performances and
single-evening installations (small to medium in size that can be
set-up and taken down in one day). please email me first with your
ideas and URLs, and then we'll coordinate getting recorded samples.
(((there are too many refugee CDs in the world.)))
there will not be any fees paid to the artists, but there will be
pizza, soda, and beer. mmm mmm, what a good time will be had by all.
send your proposals to physic@halfnormal.com. please forward this
email appropriately, and remember to be safe && insane
thanks
