Hi guys, im new here but this seems like the right place to do this...
Im looking for anyone located in or near london who has experience with circuit bending, experimental music, electronics or creating 'sound art' pieces and would like to collaborate with some chill dudes to work on a performance-based art/design exhibition that will happen on the 19/20th Sept in Deptford, (South East London).
We have some more detailed information on the event at
http://24hrdesignandmake.co.uk which will tell you about the dates, space, who is involved and so on.
I am in charge of the 'sound' aspect of the event and currently we only have two guys including myself - im hoping to have 4 or 5 really. My own personal sound work comprises of a lot of circuit bent stuff, feedback loops, distortion, modifying computers/programming and magnetic tape mayhem. Examples of the things id hope to experiment with for this event would be modifying the speakers/mics on mobile phones and creating very large-scale tape loops that will stay recording/playing throughout the whole event. But the whole ethos of the event is experimentation and improvisation - which is why circuit benders fits in so well...
In terms of volunteers we're not looking for any particular skills or qualifications, just enthusiasm and a bit of experience.
Its kinda hard to describe what we hope to achieve with this event - but if you think you might be interested or have any questions then ask away.
I think it will be a lot of fun and with any luck will produce some interesting work at the end!
thanks for reading,
Tom
