A night of techno and electronica offset by experimental noise and soundscapes in room 2, including an interactive, experimental drone session:
Explanatory excerpt - http://www.bordercommunity.com/borderbooking/wpblog/?p=1509 At this month’s event, Corsica’s Room 2, usually a place of bumping, percussion and song, will take on a new sonic character. Among other things, we will attempt to conjour a Communal soundscape where as many folk as are present sit on the ground and join in a rousing drone by darkness. Beginning with a hum, each droner aims to heighten the collective drone, keeping to the same initial frequency. Slight deviations from the frequency will occur and enrich the tapestry. This is the sort of configuration that readily draws drawls of cynicism from critics perceiving hints of the new-age, forced interaction, experimentation-at-expense-of-enjoyment, or some other miserable assessment. For those, Room 1 will rumble on. And for us in search of alternate sounds and experience, we will meet in the second. [Drone will be amplified live, with a Max MSP patch in place to, hopefully, reduce feedback to manageable level] General night info: http://www.bordercommunity.com/borderbooking/wpblog/?p=1498 Sample material: http://anunexpectacle.com/drones-small.jpg
