micromattic video

Nikolay and I have been working sonically for 2 years, convinced that eventually we’ll find a fun and exciting way to make live dance music. I think that moment has arrived so I’m very proud to present micromattic’s latest video!

sound and movement performance

This Friday 14th November I’m performing with Jenny Hill. We’re doing a sound and movement duet – with me creating the sound using my voice and live performance rig.

Jenny Hill and Matthew Venn. Jenny is a dancer and choreographer who has recently been focusing on improvised performance. Her performances are quirky, mercurial and expansive. She creates an imaginative, multi-textural world, drawing on different parts of the psyche. Tonight she is performing with Matthew, an electronic engineer and musician.

Shahar Dor, an internationally acclaimed improvisor from Israel is coming to London. Shahar is known for his character driven and cinematic approach towards the body.  He shows a remarkable degree of humour, sensitivity and freedom in the communicative aspects of spontaneous performance. http://www.artness.org/

Kate Hilder. Kate’s performances have an innocent, spacious quality, with unexpected shifts from pedestrian to caricature to the poetic – watching Kate perform is like riding a space hopper through an emotional landscape.

Artmospheric 2008 – performance

Artmospheric was great! I got to meet up with all my Bulgarian friends and also rock the party with my crazy live setup! Hopefully some photos will follow soon… Meanwhile here is a recording of my 4th performance that was mostly solo with some contributions from the audience (voice, bells, recorder, whistle).

I really like this style of performance – very live and improvised. Spontaneous and responsive with the audience.

Comments much appreciated!

Artmospheric 2008!

Artmospheric is a festival in Bulgaria, from the 1st of May till the 4th. It is is going to be cool electronic music and art during the day and night!

I’m performing with Nikolay (as Microwave) and also running a workshop on improvisation for performance with computers. I’m going to be doing stuff with linux, pure data and the wiimotes.

Here is a pic of my live setup…
