Dear Share Festival friends, in this second special newsletter the spotlight is on the performances that will be accompanying the Festival at its various venues. *PERFORMANCE <http://www.toshare.it/?page_id=313&lang=en>* /*SHARE PRIZE*/ /ORCHESTRA MECCANICA MARINETTI plays Nag Hammadi <http://www.toshare.it/?page_id=1124&lang=en>/ – *Angelo Comino aka Motor * 3rd & 5th November, 6.30 PM, Regional Museum of Natural Science The orchestra consists of robot drummers that play steel drums “live”, under the direction of a performer. The interactive rhythms of the OMM sound out the movement, work and machinery of Turin industry. The subtext moves along the lines of the /Nag Hammadi/, the third-century AD Gnostic text, before plunging into contemporary mythologies through pieces inspired by the works of Ballard and Burroughs, exploring the relationship between, and the fusion of, human and machine. / / /*Squatting Supermarket *//DIGITAL ORBIT NOCTURNE/ <http://www.toshare.it/?page_id=1103&lang=en> Friday, 6th November, 10 PM Sala Espace, via Mantova 38, Turin powered by Club To Club, Share Festival & VIEW Conference – in partnership with Musica 90 Share Festival will be featuring the international collective for synesthetic media,* OPTOFONICA*, created by Maurizio Martinucci aka Tez, who lives and works in Amsterdam.

The /OSC (Optofonica Surround Cinema)/ will also be a feature of the night. Club To Club will be presenting: *Jon Hopkins*, composer, pianist and self-taught recording technician. Hopkins shows no disdain to working with the most diverse artistic forms – adding to his movie soundtracks is his recent score for Entity, the latest production by choreographer Wayne McGregor; *Teho Teardo* is an Italian composer and musician. After having released a fourth album with Meathead and having worked with Mick Harris (Scorn, Napalm Death) and Lydia Lunch, Teardo now composes music scores for film and television. VIEW Conference will be presenting* ITALIANMIX*, a showcase of the best in independent Italian video production and creativity. An occasion for young filmmakers, digital artists, graphic artists, designers, audiovisual technicians, studios and production companies that are not on the ‘official circuit’ to strut their stuff before an international audience. /*MARKET FORCES*/ ANDREA VALLE/3quietman – /LA TERRA GUASTA / <http://www.toshare.it/?page_id=1151&lang=en> 7th November, 7 PM – Allegretti Contemporanea Art Gallery /La terra guasta/ is an installation based on motorized sound sources controlled by a computer, and is part of a broader project focused on building and using computer-controlled sound sources. Taking an ecological perspective, each piece in the ensemble is a percussion instrument built by connecting a small direct current motor (typically recovered from abandoned electronic goods such as CD/DVD players, mobile phones, and toys) to a resonator. As customary, all Share Festival 2009 – MARKET FORCES conferences will be streamed live on our website. _______________________________________________ NetBehaviour mailing list [email protected] http://www.netbehaviour.org/mailman/listinfo/netbehaviour
