ABOUT THINKBOX | http://www.thinkbox.ca
Founded at the end of the 1990s, Thinkbox is a multimedia collective
whose interests lie in the exploration and the development of the new
modalities of audiovisual diffusion in the context of live
performances. The collective is comprised of six members who reside
on both sides of the Canadian-American border, dividing their time
between Windsor and Detroit. Thinkbox was recently selected as one of
URB Magazine's "Next 100 Artists for 2004". Collective and/or solo
member performances have occurred in the past year at the following
venues and festivals: Movement (Detroit's Electronic Music Festival),
USA / Cranbrook Museum of Art, USA / New Maps Festival, Montreal /
Deep Wireless Festival, Toronto / Vancouver New Music's Dangerous
Currents Festival / and The Ann Arbor Film Festival, USA.
ABOUT THINKBOX @ MUTEK 2004 | http://www.mutek.ca
While they remain a close-knit group, Thinkbox appreciates diversity.
With the free reign given to them by MUTEK, the collective presented
a series of solo performances that culminated with a full ensemble
collaboration. Their presentation strategies vary: certain pieces
were microtonal in nature, others more cinematographically and
musically oriented, while others revolved around electro-acoustic
structures built upon field-recording passages, generating minimalist
moments throughout a powerful, definitive rhythm. The results
combined the cerebral, the visceral, the organic and the power of
digital. For images of T/B @ the festival, see...
