music concert:

A concert
Starr Auditorium, Level 2
Tate Modern, Bankside
London, UK
http://www.tate.org.uk
Friday 21 September
19.30 - 21.30
Performances by three major contemporary electronic musicians, Oval,
Scanner, and Kim Cascone complement the conference, 'Immanent
Choreographies: Deleuze and Neo-Aesthetics'.
Scanner <http://www.scannerdot.com> - British sound artist, Robin Rimbaud
- creates absorbing, multi-layered soundscapes that twist technology in
unconventional ways. His controversial early work used scanned mobile phone
conversations which he wove into his soundscapes, thus focusing on the
split between the public and the private. As well as producing
compositions and recordings, Scanner has created soundtracks for films,
performances, and radio plays, and creates multimedia installations.
Oval - German sound sculptor, Markus Popp - explores the process and
systems behind the design of electronic music. Popp has developed his own
software, Oval Process, which manipulates looping sound samples. Oval
Process also exists as a CD and a sound installation, which enable
listeners to be involved in generating Oval music. Artforum comment that
Oval's music "? hums, crackles, vibrates; quavering analog tones pulse and
feed back on themselves. It's a dirty music made from digital translucence ..."
Both Scanner and Oval have recorded and released many CDs, and featured on
the compilations, Folds & Rhizomes for Gilles Deleuze (1995, Sub Rosa) and
In Memorium: Gilles Deleuze (1996, Mille Plateaux), tribute albums to Deleuze.
American electronic musician Kim Cascone <http://www.anechoicmedia.com/>
works at the intersection between academic computer music and contemporary
digital listening. He has worked with David Lynch as Assistant Music Editor
on Twin Peaks and Wild at Heart, and founded Silent Records, the premier
electronic music label in the U.S.A. Cascone has released more than 15
albums of electronic music and has worked as a collaborator and producer on
numerous projects. He also writes for Computer Music Journal and Artbyte
Magazine.
Kim Cascone also performs at the Sprawl Club event, Wednesday 19th Sept,
Global Cafe, 15 Golden Sq, London W1. 7.30pm.
