Details
Onward to PS, it’s time to wipe the tears away and sink into a world of high-definition rattles, crackles and wild sonic phenomena made by strings.
Silvia Tarozzi & Deborah Walker, in their first of two festival performances, present Pyrocumulus. Composed by the big dog of electroacoustic rigour on this continent, Anthony Pateras, Pyrocumulus deals conceptually with the aftermath of bushfire, using processed field recordings, instrumental sounds, and spoken word. In the foreground is the violin, cello and singing of Silvia & Deborah, sometimes engaged with radical timbral possibilities on their instruments, and other times sounding tuneful, even mournful. Originally written for a bonkers amount of speakers, we’ll hear it in quadrophonic (4-speaker) surround sound.
Eduardo Cossio launches Citadels, the newest release on Tone List. Eduardo has been entering increasingly unfathomable territory with his now-iconic setup of two zithers, harmonics and small electronics. Few know how he is making the sounds he is making, but the vast sonic depth and nocturnal beauty he’s been achieving is turning heads nonetheless. Off the back of tours of Europe and Taiwan, and releases with Josten Myburgh and Ross Bolleter, Eduardo’s solo record is a big moment in the trajectory of one of Boorloo’s most prolific, dedicated sound explorers.
If you’re rolling on from Laugh of Medusa and don’t need a dinner break, feel free to head straight to the PS bar, which will be open from 8.
