[microsound] MELB: environ presents Company 21-87, Feb 6th at Loop



environ sunday february 6th at Loop :::

After the early January mega-production that was TALULU, where over 20
artists collaborated on a 4 hour fully improvised concoction, Environ
returns with it's monthly slot, exploring spontaneous AV interactions.

This month, Environ presents Company 21-87, an ensemble gathered by ex-USA,
ex-Belgium based David Shea, who now resides in Melbourne. Taking influence
from Derek Bailey's Company free improvisation events, Company 21-87
combines five musicians and two video makers in a sequence of discrete
events over three hours.

The combination of players either visual or musical will be pre-arranged
with all of the choices of material decided by the players and not discussed
before getting on stage. Each piece will be a separate and discrete
improvisation, with a focus on the clear and direct connections between film
music, collaged films & images, and iconic musical references and film sound
design with a few tributes most likely appearing to some of the classic film
composers.

In true Environ tradition, the performances can be viewed in the back room
as a cinema event or in the front space amongst the players.

Playing from 8.30 to 11.30, Company 21-87 is:

Michael Farlie - Video collage
Kristi Monfries - Live and collage video
Steve Magnusson - Guitars
Joe Talia - Percussion and electronics
Aaron Choulai - Keyboards
G'resh Makwana - Tabla
David Shea - Sampler

Mixed by David Ashton (SBS Radio)

Alongside sonic selectors bP (Zonar, Uber_Lingua), Jools (Fong Kong Bantu
Sound System, Sth Africa) and the Talula Archive.
