sub jam is proud to announce the release of the first full-length album of the one and only ake.
ake is a typical self empowered avand-garde artist of today's china. she start to play music with her totally unskilled violin and a desire of being exist and a planty of still time, as the only valuable propoty of many people, in around 2016. she is part of the new/no wave of performance art and the newly reflourishing fluxus spirit.
this album is mostly a collection of her recent spontaneous performances/recordings, plus one earlier live recording which fits as a foundament of these works. they are personal, basical, universal and always supported by a firm concept.

quotation from zhu wenbo's words (full 13 friends' word about this album can be downloaded with digital purchase):
It's a hybrid, and it could become a model of contemporary experimental music. It's music that anyone can make. It's music that anyone can come up with. But this is music that no one else wants to come up with.

What do knowledges look like? Who produces them? And how are they distributed? Through sound, film and text, as well as radio shows and publishing, Simnikiwe Buhlungu asks; how are knowledges encountered? Previous works have included theremins, cassette tapes and research with honey bees, to navigate the boundless potential answers that unfold and reshape as we - and our non-human counterparts - move through the world. Chisenhale Gallery will present a major new commission and first solo exhibition in the UK by Buhlungu. Traversing disciplines from microbiology to genealogy, and locations from London to Johannesburg, Buhlungu's commission takes the 'puddle' as both model and methodology to uncover the ways knowledges, histories and ecologies circulate and pool. A new publication, continuing Buhlungu's interest in forms of distribution, will be developed as part of the commissioning process.

TACO! launches Resuscitator, a pamphlet by Hesse K., connecting to the Gusty Ferro exhibition Hello Neighbours. Come for an evening of readings from Hesse K., Ⓐ DUDLEY Ⓔ, Enya Ettershank and exlruth.

Resuscitator is a text run through by gutters, all leading to a burned-out wreck. Language, quivering in an alley, fills these spaces like smoke and says "There are no private streets just as there are no private bodies."

Resuscitator is the first in a series of commissioned pamphlets that connect to the TACO! exhibition programme.

Sholto Dobie puts forth '23' on Infant Tree, his debut solo LP. A wildly accomplished document of practice. After many years spent working with pipes and air, '23' offers us his current developments. Recorded in a year in which the artist worked in Lithuania, Vietnam and Sweden, the record distills a broad approach to sound, using a wide net to gather recordings from performances, gatherings, walks and personal life. Sholto carefully leads the listener between distinct environments and the intimately documented network of compressed air, tubes, reeds, flutes and timers which he works with. In these recordings, life is welcomed in, interiors are heard and felt, obscured voices, insects, forests drift in and out of focus, as we are transported through an unfamiliar landscape.

Sholto Dobie was born in Edinburgh and lives in Vilnius, he performs with self-constructed wind instruments, using a frankenstein-like set up which has evolved over many years. An air pump is attached to a series of reeded and metal pipes from various sources - organs, bagpipes and khene - which are brought to life by an interrelated system of timer modules, valves and swinging microphones. '23' captures the rich world of pulses, beatings and breaths that have emerged from Sholto's performance settings, whilst weaving them into a distinct and unique audio work.

For anyone more familiar with Sholto's work you will no doubt be warmed by recognisably delicate and evocative styles reminiscent of previous solo recordings such as 'Nevery' and 'The Ringer' as well as influences from friends and collaborators such as Judith Hamann, Malvern Brume, Ahti & Ahti, Rie Nakajima and Shakeeb Abu Hamdan.

The 12" LP comes with beautifully matched artwork by Zoë Annesley and printed on reverse board, pressed by Monotype Pressing. Limited to 300 copies.

A listening, instrument-building and performing workshop led by Rob Shuttleworth.

In the evening Rob (as - Haddow) presents an evening of live performances , including with invited guests Ariela Fisher, Phil Swan, and members of the Electronic Audio Club.

Join us to learn the basics of building, playing and improvising with a unique rudimentary stringed instrument. Side-stepping restrictive barriers to making music - too expensive, too complicated - in this workshop we will learn how to build a unique instrument.

We will begin with a deep listening walk around Thamesmead, engaging with TACO!'s sonic environment and foraging for scrap wood. Focusing on process not outcomes, we will learn to use piano wire, tuning pins and a few simple hand tools to create our own weird, stringed things. Then, with contact mics, effects and amplification we will explore ways of improvising together, learning to play and perform as we go. The workshop will conclude with a public live performance, with participants guided by Haddow.

Booking essential. Tickets on a sliding scale here.

Rob Shuttleworth/Haddow is a London based artist working across illustration, composition and performance. He makes work that thinks about place and time, using accessible materials and techniques to draw attention to material or personal details and experiences. He composes and performs under the depersonalised alias Haddow, improvising with varying sound sources, directly or indirectly, to create soundscapes as a kind of crystallised memory.

A linear timeline-based exhibition of works by the two Lebanese artists and longtime friends Mazen Kerbaj and Jana Traboulsi, as a response to the ongoing devastating war on Gaza

Don't Stop Drawing - Visual diaries of solidarity with Gaza is a linear timeline-based exhibition of works by the two Lebanese artists and longtime friends: Mazen Kerbaj, living in Berlin, and Jana Traboulsi, living in Beirut. As a response to the ongoing devastating war on Gaza, the two artists started drawing and posting on their Instagram pages. The works expose Israel's injustice towards Palestinians through bold and anchoring imagery. The artists draw as a coping mechanism, as their only way to remain sane amid such humanitarian catastrophe. The works have been widely shared on social media, allowing thousands of people worldwide to express their own solidarity and to identify with the artists' feelings and positions. Though the artists are living in two different cities, their hearts are in sync. Their works carry a hidden dialogue between two people who lived the wars in Lebanon and today witness, on their phone screens, the daily unbearable violence towards Palestinians. These drawings are the artists' way of demanding equality, peace and justice for Palestine and to counter their helplessness towards the inhumanity that this genocide has exposed.

Citizen Scientists (local researchers) from Ramallah, Beirut and London, working with University College London's Institute for Global Prosperity (IGP) have been asked to respond to this work.

Curated by Mona El Hallak and Mayssa Jallad, the exhibition is part of the Lebanon Week conference at the IGP, running from March 19th to 22nd and entitled: "The Politics of Decolonial Investigations and the Ethics of Solidarity".

The exhibition will be on view from 19 - 29 March at the P21 Gallery in London. The opening reception will be on Tuesday 19 March from 2-4pm.

Mazen Kerbaj is a Lebanese comics author, visual artist, and musician born in Beirut in 1975. He also works on selective illustration and design projects and has taught at the American University of Beirut. Kerbaj is the author of 15 books translated into more than ten languages and his work has been shown in galleries, museums and art fairs around the world. Mazen Kerbaj is widely considered as one of the initiators and key players of the Lebanese free improvisation and experimental music scene. As a trumpet player, he pushes the boundaries of the instrument beyond recognition.

Jana Traboulsi is a visual artist, designer and academic. She is an Assistant Professor of Graphic Design at the American University of Beirut where she teaches design and illustration studios, as well as theory and history. She is the co-founder and creative director of pan-Arab quarterly Bidayat and the artistic director of Snoubar Bayrout publishing house. In 2014, she co-founded Sigil, an art collective based in Beirut and New York. Her artist book The Book of Margins (2017), shortlisted for the Jameel Prize 2021, has been exhibited at the Victoria & Albert museum, London, and has been on show in Chile, Argentina and Dubai in 2022 and 2023.

Mona El Hallak is a Beirut-based architect and heritage preservation activist. In 2017, she joined the American University of Beirut as the director of the Neighborhood Initiative whose aim is to promote critical citizenship. She led several heritage preservation campaigns and succeeded in saving the Barakat Building, now Beit Beirut, a museum of memory and a cultural urban center. She is a member of APSAD (Association pour la Protection des Sites et Anciens Demeures au Liban) and ICOMOS (International Council on Monuments and Sites), a founding member of IRAB for the preservation of the Arab world's musical archives; and of ZAKIRA for the promotion of photography and its role in documenting and preserving memory.

Mayssa Jallad is a researcher and Citizen Science Coordinator with PROCOL Lebanon since January 2019. She has trained close to 75 Citizen Scientists in fieldwork and survey co-design on prosperity, vulnerabilities and livelihoods. She has advised researcher-led interventions that involved several and diverse communities. Jallad is also a singer/songwriter. She writes research-based music and her work investigates the violent transformation of cities, just as her 1st album "Marjaa: The Battle of the Hotels" (Ruptured/Six of Swords, 2023).

Archiving from Below

Since its inception, MayDay Rooms has been built on the principle of archiving from below, challenging the conventional institutional methods of gathering, shaping, and disseminating the history of struggles.

As we enter our tenth year, we are launching a reading and discussion group to address the practices of archiving from below and strategies of activating the histories of resistance .

The group is open to archivists, researchers, historians involved in both past and present organising, and anyone interested in radical archives. Our aim is to share our own approach, learn from each other, and collaboratively develop counter-archival practices that extend beyond mere critique.

The artist and participants will read an extract from Peggy Phelan's book Unmarked: The Politics of Performance, 1993. The book is a critique of visibility as a political act and the assumption that greater visibility leads to enhanced political power.

This reading group forms part of the artist's ongoing research into the ways human history is intertwined with communication and support. This is explored in his current exhibition at Site Gallery, Sheffield which continues until 18 February 2024.

“I believe art re-ritualizes the everyday to reveal something fresh about our lives. This revelation is a vitality and it is a power to change the world.” – Pope.L

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
Pope.L, Eating the Wall Street Journal (3rd version), 2000 performance. MoMA, New York, NY, USA.

Pope.L's wide ranging practice spans writing, painting, performance, installation, sculpture and video, which will be explored across both the SLG's Main Gallery and Fire Station. Hospital is the artist's first solo exhibition in a London institution.

With roots in philosophy and theatre, Pope.L's career since the 1970s has centred on society, politics and contemporary culture. The work often reveals contradictory and provocative themes in language, gender, race, economics and community.

It brings together a set of installations and interventions, all of which are reconfigurations of previous works. In the Main Gallery three large-scale wooden towers are in states of gradual collapse. They are a reworking of the towers on top of which the artist, wearing only a jock strap and covered in flour, sat on a toilet and  consumed newspaper pages in  his performance, Eating the Wall Street Journal , 2000. For this latest reworking Pope.L has removed the live performance element, shifting the focus to the dynamic of the toppling tower structures and viewers' capacity to imagine what might have happened or what is still to come.

Further installations across the four galleries in the SLG's Fire Station explore ideas of  memory, decay, forgetfulness, convalescence or mourning. The artist describes them as " sites where personal and institutional metaphors of care metastasize into scenes of spills, shelves with holes, fallen towers, broken bottles, dripping liquids, always something ongoing, always something undone and wanting fixed with dust or stains or trampled flowers. Hospital is that sensation of lying on your back on a stretcher in a hallway staring at the veins in the ceiling above while it stares right back ".

Artist biography

Pope.L (also known as William Pope.L; b.1955, Newark, New Jersey) is an artist best known for his provocative performances and public installations. While centering on themes such as gender and race, his works explore the systems, conflicts, and beliefs inherent to our society and culture. Pope.L studied at Pratt Institute and Montclair State College, where he received a BA in 1978. He also participated in the Independent Study Program at the Whitney and received an MFA in 1981 from Rutgers University. His works have been exhibited at many significant institutions, including the Anthology Film Archives, Franklin Furnace, Artist Space, Museum of Modern Art, New Museum, Performa, The Sculpture Center, the 2002 and 2017 Whitney Biennials, the Carpenter Center in Boston and the Geffen at MOCA Los Angeles.

about

'Turning in Space,' a new cassette box set by Áine O'Dwyer, compiles a series of sonic choreographies conducted at the artist's living and studio space in suburban East London. Since summer 2015, O'Dwyer has been a resident of the Lady Helen Seymour House, a former hospital, in a building-wide unit that gives the artist a stereophonic impression of the auditory surround. Inspired by the "natural musics" of the house's structure (its acoustics, creaks, and room tone) and the community that holds it (sirens, bells, the weather, pedestrian murmurs), O'Dwyer live-mixes multiple vantage points-an extension of her search for Klangfarbenmelodie, a melody split between instruments, which "binds together both the intrinsic and extraneous in real-time." These three tapes, recorded between 2019 and 2023, capture an array of post-collagist techniques, in which splicing, over-dubbing, and dissolving are performed live, and O'Dwyer's subtle compositions for found-tune piano and synthesizer blend seamlessly with the environment, keeping true to her belief that listening is "both an instrument and a compositional element" in her work.

'Turning in Space' is produced in a limited edition of 200, with an art edition of 25 featuring a hand-drawn insert by O'Dwyer. Only available directly through Blank Forms.

O'Dwyer is a multidisciplinary artist whose work is informed by both the conceptual concerns of sound art and traditional composition techniques, embracing the broader aesthetics of sound and its relationship to environment, time, audience, and structure. She has created works for large-scale and intimate settings that allow for both planned and chance compositions to co-exist in live situ. Recent works include 'Poems for Daedalus' (2018), a series of site-specific performances developed in Athens; the book 'Poems for play' (2018), a collection of scores for a Jesuit monastery; 'Accompaniment for Captives' (Open Ear Festival, 2019), a performance for two fishing boats; 'Performance for Live Stream' (Cafe OTO, 2021), an audio-visual work; and 'Song of Place' (2022) a street opera staged in Bristol suburbia.

Editing / composing / manipulation of "original" and sampled sound material

Paul Richardson Mastering

A certain, often reactionary mode of thinking decries the explicit linkage of music to politics: somehow, in its necessary concreteness, the latter "vulgarizes" the former, draws it out of the realm of shadowy abstraction and into the supposedly finite, discrete, plain and simple-dessicated, dead on arrival. But what is finite, discrete, or simple about the endlessly shifting contingencies of history as reflected in politics? Is this not actually the terrain in which concreteness and abstraction are constantly flowing into-becoming-one another, in which both our analytical skills and experience are tested to their utmost limits? Is there not something to be said for attempting to capture this swarming network of contradictions in sound? Perhaps this is already moving far beyond a conventional description of "political art." But regardless: in Cacophony I hear sonified the fragmented, scattering, elastic contents of my brain and heart at this moment, weeks into Israel's ongoing genocide in Palestine-jagged, molten, crusting over and erupting. This is not merely a subjective whim: this particular politic is objectively embedded into the music; it is woven into its very fabric and wrapped around its alien bones. Just as the Palestinian resistance has acted as a mirror of truth to the world, exposing hidden structures, forces, weaknesses, points of entry-perhaps that same resistance has exposed, and shattered, preconceived notions about "political art" and what classes and social forces such art serves: an opening.

NEW NOW: CO-CURATED BY ELL PENNICK AND BRYNLEY ODU DAVIES

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
Guts Gallery is excited to present NEW NOW, a two-part group exhibition in collaboration with Brynley Odu Davies which showcases the next generation of artists working in the UK today. Since 2020, Brynley Odu Davies has been travelling the country photographing and documenting over 200 contemporary artists in their studios. The result is a remarkable and diverse archive of the UK's emerging arts scene. NEW NOW is the culmination of Bynley's project as it brings together and platforms the work of some of the exceptional artists that Brynley has photographed over the course of the last three years.

In 2020, faced with the fact that his career as a music photographer would have to be put on hold due to the Covid-19 pandemic, Brynley decided to start taking pictures of local South London-based artists. Brynley's distinctive style drew the attention of artists across the UK and soon enough Brynley was travelling up and down the country documenting artists in their own environment, surrounded by their own work. Brynley's photographs are taken with the central focus of being as natural and real as possible. Often taken in natural light with little to no editing, Brynley's portraits are clean and classic; they aim to capture the absolute essence of their subject. In this way, Brynley's photographs are empowering - they tell the story of an artist in that specific moment in time, both in their life and their artistic career.

In NEW NOW, Guts Gallery celebrates the work of a wide and diverse range of artists documented in Brynley's project. Looking beyond just capital cities, NEW NOW fosters a sense of nationwide artistic community as it platforms the boundary-breaking artists who are shaping the UK's emerging art scene. Despite constant cuts to arts funding, cuts to arts education and the threat of the rising cost of living; there remains a vibrant and unwavering creative spirit that thrives in the UK. NEW NOW captures a snapshot of this spirit and presents the work of the exceptionally talented individuals who will come to define the future of art in the UK.

NEW NOW will also be accompanied by a new publication which will feature a range of Brynley's studio portraits. Acting as a record of some of the best young artists working in the UK today, the book will be Davies' first ever publication.

Gray Wielebinski: The Red Sun is High, the Blue Low

Gray Wielebinski: The Red Sun is High, the Blue Low

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
Expanding Wielebinski's exploration of the boundaries of private and public spaces, with references spanning sci-fi, Cold War legacies and games, The Red Sun is High, the Blue Low transforms the ICA into an investigation of constructed worlds within worlds. In doing so, Wielebinski responds to our neighbours on The Mall: Buckingham Palace, St. James's Park, and the Admiralty Citadel. The exhibition's title is taken from a 1978 essay by science fiction writer and critic Samuel R. Delany. Delany uses the sentence as an example of the corrective and revisionary process of reading science fiction, in which 'each new word revises the complex picture we had a moment before.'

In Wielebinski's installation environment, overlapping worlds feel both familiar and strange. A large electronic basketball scoreboard signals to visitors their unknown role in some mysterious, surely unwinnable, game. The sun appears in multiple and sequential instances across the space, mapping a potential collapse of temporalities. Now a dark, absurdist bunker, the ICA's smaller reading room stands in contrast to the light-filled gallery visible to those who place their eye on the aperture of a telescoping peephole connecting the two spaces. In its privacy, surveillance and exclusivity, the bunker also speaks the language of illicit spaces where separating oneself leads towards community formation rather than isolation.

Wielebinski's commission could be viewed as a processing of terminal capitalism and the omnipresence of a collective low-grade anxiety. In the wake of a pandemic that forced the tilling of our social ground, exposing our governing systems and conventions to scrutiny they could not withstand, this exhibition imagines how we might position our individual and public selves anew. And with it comes an unexpected playfulness and optimism, the ineffable condition of living in a time in which apocalyptic precarity feels realistic and maybe also revelatory.

In conjunction with The Red Sun is High, the Blue Low Wielebinski will take over the Selfridges' Orchard Street Windows from September to November 2023. Further, the commission Exhibition by Wielebinski is currently on display at the Selfridges Art Block.

Zhao Cong is an experimental musician living in Beijing. She has been playing improvised music through her own approach since 2016, before and after she plays bass in rock band. When making music, Zhao Cong uses a variety of everyday objects, amplified by pickups from a variety of microphones, to bring out unfamiliar and heterogeneous sounds.

55355 is a recording that is both outdoors and in-outdoors at the same time. It is "electric" music, but not electronic music at the same time. Recorded on 9th April 2023, it consists of four sessions, which were excerpted after without overdubbing. This may sound cryptic, but would make clear once you hear it.

Three Things is a new full-length album of pieces conceived, performed and recorded by long-term collaborators Luciano Maggiore and Louie Rice. The pair are known for multi-pronged activities as artists and organisers which have quietly but surely informed the shape of the United Kingdom's experimental audio underground for many years. Under the guise of NOPAON, they developed a series of events and performances in which they realised scores by Alvin Lucier, Robert Bozzi, Ken Friedman, Emmet Williams, Walter Marchetti and of their own creation. These outputs, described by the duo as 'unrewarding task-based actions' or simply 'two people in a room, doing something' have resulted in an ongoing performance practice based on prompts actions and scenarios which they continue to explore.
A persistent quality in Maggiore and Rice's work is a wilful embrace of humour and the acknowledgement of their performances as a basis for absurdity. This element runs throughout Three Things, starting with Hissing for White Shoes (#6), where an otherwise unremarkable recording of a drive around London is punctuated by loud hissing whenever their vehicle passes an unwitting participant in the street, their footwear acting as a prompt for the vocal intervention. The same sense of humour looms large in Pocket Fascinator (#7) where audio derived from EMS Stockholm's Buchla synth is played back and re-recorded via mobile phone speakers in the duo's pockets as they attempt to walk in sync with its pulses. Phone Work, the first piece realised outside of the project's typical real-time approach, is a sequence of voice recordings exchanged via WhatsApp where they mimic each other's contributions until all memory of the original has been lost. The results are set to synthesiser in a nod to the duo's long-standing interests in electronic music as solo artists.

Like everything Maggiore and Rice turn their hands to, the maddening audacity of Three Things is fundamentally driven by sincere observations of the historic avant-garde. At the heart of these recordings lurk conceptual strategies recalling the core methodological projects of Fluxus, classical sound poetry, field recording, electronic music, movement-based performance and contemporary composition. Their willingness to direct such methods toward nakedly silly outcomes whilst poking subtle fun at the emergent tropes of these cultures reinforces an entirely serious inquiry into the modern-day application of avant-garde technique in sound creation. When accepted in full, Three Things is a challenging, amusing assertion of genuine commitment to experimentation and aesthetic stress-testing.

Reading Group is thrilled to release Contradictions (plays 4 writers), the new LP by legendary musician and poet Yan Jun. Yan Jun has been a central figure in the (non-)music, noise, sound, and experimental performance scenes both in his native Beijing and in the global subterranean community for decades. He founded the Beijing-based experimental label Sub Jam in 2000 and has since collaborated with Lionel Marchetti, Axel Dörner, Toshimaru Nakamura, Torturing Nurse, and many more.

On Contradictions, Jun "plays 4 writers"--interpreting, across five pieces, the formal, conceptual, and linguistic challenges of literary and theoretical figures as constraints and guides for sound composition and experimental performance. On tracks A1 and A2, Jun "plays" Lu Xun, the early twentieth-century Chinese literary critic and associate of the League of Left-Wing Writers in the 1930s. These two iterations of "behaviors in environment" explore Lu Xun's contradictory descriptions of sound and silence, forming two seemingly "empty" field recordings as containers for the full silence of non-intentional action. The following track, uses "acoustic mechanisms" to interpret a provocation from post-Marxist theorist Slavoj Žižek about the mechanization of sexuality and desire in expanding global capitalism, resulting in a noise sequence indexing the battery-operated commodification of eroticism. On the B-side, Jun "plays Jean Baudrillard" by exploring the "hyper-real" of audio feedback without a manual interface. The final track recalls Jun's work for voice and speech, interpreting Samuel Beckett by reading through the Chinese translation of Beckett's Texts for Nothing silently--except for the enunciated floating signifier 我 (I, my, me). In the extensive liner notes by the artist, he sums up this piece in language that provides a clue to the record as a whole: "How about colliding and annihilating everything through the voice of this 'I' then we deal with the limit of the form?"

Reading Group is very happy to announce the release of Blue Monday, a new LP from Zara Joan Miller and Ute Kanngießer. The LP is the result of the first live collaboration between the poet/artist Miller and the cellist/improvisor Kanngießer, recorded at London's Cafe Oto in January of 2023. Kanngießer's searching, intensive cello lays an amorphous terrain beneath passing fragments of Miller's poetry (from her 2022 book of the same name from JOAN Publishing), billboards dotting the interior freeway of liminal perception. The micro-world of spectral and textural details within the cello sound seems to dramatize or mirror the micro-world of unspoken implications left unsaid in the gaps between threads of language. At times, these worlds produce a dull anxiety or a quiet fervor, only to be scattered by the occasional swerve to a poetic delivery reminiscent of slow-motion jokes ("I once saw a sign on the side of a road it said SLOW DUST"), a fortuitous error ("a seagull shitting on my face is home"), a mysterious interruption of domestic boredom ("someone's girlfriend called to say don't answer"). Occasional dates progressing through time give the sense that we are being driven through a year of blue Mondays, the cello wandering as if seasonally. The live set having been accompanied by a literal slideshow of some cumulative, fictive vacation adds to this sense of the year in review. But the imperceptibility of (tonal and narrative) space between these entry/fragments bring us beyond the stark view of the calendrical and into something less measurable: the space of a syncope: "to witness your life unfolding she said / is the key getting stuck."

"Yesterday I watched Blue Monday performed as a dialogue between voice and cello by Zara Joan Miller and Ute Kanngießer. A series of images shown on a 35mm slide projector triangulated this conversation, and the darkness of the room protected us all from the terrible blueness of a January afternoon. Images of scarecrows in smiling fields flash by slowly as the solidity of the projector's mechanism creates a soft thunk against which the sound of the cello is a knife's edge, the bow moving across a cluster of nerve endings, somehow this unpeeling feels good." (Bella Marin for Map Magazine, January 2023)

The NID Tapes' presents a collection of early Indian electronic music uncovered at the archives of the National Institute of Design in Ahmedabad. Recorded between 1969-1972 the compilation chronicles electronic works from the previously unknown Indian composers Gita Sarabhai, I.S. Mathur, Atul Desai, S.C. Sharma and Jinraj Joshipura who worked at the nation's first electronic music studio founded at the NID during the utopian years following India's independence - a radical period of visionary experimentation and artistic free-thought.

The studio was founded with support from the New York composer David Tudor who personally set up a Moog modular system and tape machine in the autumn of 1969, and The NID Tapes also includes an excerpt from Tudor's work discovered amongst the collection of tapes. The release developed from a long-term research project by the British artist and electronic musician Paul Purgas who travelled to Ahmedabad over many years to explore the origins of electronic music in India. This resulted in the discovery of the electronic music archive at the NID and its eventual restoration and digitising, which featured in the acclaimed BBC radio documentary Electronic India.

The compilation presents excerpts from the 27 reels of archive tape spanning the three years of the studio's operational history, showcasing work from the pioneering electronic composers which included the musician and poet Atul Desai, NID teachers and technicians I.S. Mathur and S.C. Sharma, Gita Sarabhai who had previously studied with John Cage in New York in the 1940's and the young architecture student Jinraj Joshipura who was just 19 years old at the time of first composing with the Moog synthesiser. The audio showcases their various visions for electronic music production, exploring analogue synthesis, tape collages, voice experiments and field recordings revealing a meeting point of Western and Indian avant-garde traditions, and offering a unique insight into South Asia's post-colonial sonic imaginary. The vinyl and digital is a collaborative release by Strange Attractor Press and State51 and has been mastered by Hari Shankar Kishore (HVAD) with design for the release and a vinyl etching created by Shreya Aurora a recent graduate from the National Institute of Design.

Launching at the same time through Strange Attractor Press will also be a book titled 'Subcontinental Synthesis: Electronic Music at the National Institute of Design, India 1969-1972'.

This album is a compilation featuring two new works by Ryu Hankil and Michael Speers. This digital record includes a PDF of the PP-04 zine containing writings by Ryu Hankil, Michael Speers, Vijay Masharani, and Stefan Maier. Riso printed hard copies of the zine are available in the "Merch" section of this page.

-------

Envelope Demon - Ryu Hankil

Ryu Hankil does nothing less than conjure the voice of a demon: it is one that inhabits our words, shaping the sound and content of all our speech, and thus thinking. By extracting these demons and focusing on their auditory energies, Hankil imagines a newfound freedom from the oppressive form of light.

-------

For David Stockard - Michael Speers

Every impact of a drum necessarily produces some amount of friction. And with this friction comes some small amount of electrical charge. Michael Speers' For David Stockard pursues the synthetics native to the drumhead, seemingly giving voice to the electrical currents that stream from each articulation of his instrument.

released October 6, 2023

Petronn Sphene and Sunik Kim both performed amazing sets at Counterflows 2022, spilling their overflowing, amorphous sounds off the Glue Factory walls on the Friday and Saturday nights of the festival. After performing, they met for the first time and found they both had a rapport and equal fascination with each others work. We decided to ask them if they would be interested in continuing this conversation. Through the magic of zoom they recorded this fascinating discussion just a week after the festival.

The conversation was transcribed from zoom by Sarah Lawson.

A film by Duncan Marquiss and Kimberley O'Neill

When we asked composer Tom Mudd to work with The Gorbals Youth Brass Band to create a new work in collaboration for the festival we thought it would be an exciting opportunity to also create a short film about the process behind the collaboration. We asked artists and filmmakers Duncan Marquiss and Kimberely O’Neil if they would be up for the challenge. Through 4 or 5 rehearsals and the final performance on the opening night of Counterflows 2022 Duncan and Kimberely have created a wonderfully intimate reflection on the project highlighting through the voices of the young people involved and Tom the very nature of collaboration.

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
This project brings together a real brass band and a physics-based simulation of a brass band.

The Gorbals Youth Brass Band are master synthesists: they coax and shape a range of tones, textures, blasts and percussive sounds by propagating pressure waves through a collection of pipes, all set in motion by vibrating their lips against a metal mouthpiece. With these absurd brass synthesisers, they navigate a labyrinth of metastable states through chaotic turbulence, coupled resonances, and other nonlinear phenomena.

The NESS Brass synthesis environment digitally simulates many of these behaviours, with instruments of arbitrary size and shape that can be played with settings for breath, lips, and valves. My work with this environment is necessarily experimental as I don't have the skill, insight or experience that the band have into how to navigate the eddies and flows within the instruments. This opens up a perhaps even more bizarre way of making music: writing algorithms that attempt to play these algorithmic simulations of already complicated musical instruments. The results spill across the gulf between algorithmic computer music and brass band playing.

The band and the software are connected through a series of rituals that attempt to foreground this complexity and absurdity.

Tom Mudd, 2022

Hugely excited to present a very special three day residency with musician, performance artist and noise theorist, Mattin, marking the publication of his new book, Social Dissonance by Urbanomic.

If John Cage said there is not such a thing as silence, I will argue that there is noise. A mental state of noise arising from what I call social dissonance: If cognitive dissonance is often understood as the mental discomfort one feels when two or more modes of thought contradict each other or because of the incongruity between what one thinks and one does, then social dissonance is the massive cognitive dissonance that exist between what we believe in liberal societies and in a lot of experimental music like in free improvisation (individual freedom, equality and democracy) and what we do (reproduce a system based on unfreedom, inequality, and oppression). This inevitably causes a general mental state of noise and a sense of discomfort. During this residency we will address this mental state of noise and its different repercussions by examining practically and theoretically our understanding of noise in the 21st Century and what do we mean by capitalist totality today.

EmissionControl2

October 2020

The Center for Research in Electronic Art Technology (CREATE) at the University of California, Santa Barbara (UCSB) has released a new software app for sound granulation: EmissionControl2 for MacOSX, Linux, and Windows. EmissionControl2 is a granular sound synthesizer. The theory of granular synthesis is described in the book Microsound (Curtis Roads, 2001, MIT Press). Granular synthesis is one of the most important methods of sound design.
PRESS RELEASE PDF

CloudGenerator

Cloud Generator synthesizes granular sounds in units called "clouds" and also "granulates" stereo sound files. The program uses the AIFF file format.

(Note: After downloading the zip file, only open with MacOS9 Classic.)

PulsarGenerator

The program, developed by Alberto de Campo and Curtis Roads, generates sound particles called pulsars. The theory of pulsar synthesis is explained in the March 2001 issue of the Journal of the Audio Engineering Society.

(Note: After downloading the zip file, only open with MacOS9 Classic.)

EmissionControl

EmissionControl (EC) is a prototype granulation program written by David Thall (MS, Media Arts and Technology, UCSB 2005, updated 2008) in consultation with Curtis Roads. EC is an interactive real-time program for granular synthesis and sound file granulation, with many novel features, including modulation of synthesis parameters, multiple sound file input, and variable-Q filtering on a grain-by-grain basis.

(Note: After downloading the zip file, only open with MacOS 10.4.X PowerMac G5.)

METHOD 1
Hardware
Iphone + Apple camera adapter (or clone) + Zoom H1 (or other recorder that works as a USB audio interface) + Primo microphones + Windscreen + Battery
Software
Locuscast - mobile app for iOS and Android by Locus Sonus
Notes
You can make a windscreen with a circle of synthetic fur gathered at the base with a reusable cable tie or a thread.

METHOD 2
Hardware
Android phone + adapter + Zoom H1 (or other recorder that works as a USB audio interface) + Primo microphones + Windscreen + Battery
Software
Locuscast mobile app for iOS and Android by Locus Sonus
or
Cool Mic streamer for Android (may work better for some models)

METHOD 3
Hardware
Laptop or desktop computer + soundcard (or a portable recorder that can provide an input / interface) + microphones
Software
Broadcast Using This Tool BUTT is a simple and good cross platform streamer - it's free. Contact us for settings.

METHOD 4
Hardware
Raspberry Pi (up to and including model 3 B) + USB soundcard (Focusrite Scarlett 2i2 for high quality stereo or Soundblaster for cheap and vivid mono) + power source + data from a phone, 4G router, WiFi or wired connection + microphones (you might have some or you can buy or make excellent microphones with Primo capsules) + Weatherproof housing.
Software
Download a disk image (FEB 2020) by Locus Sonus, Soundcamp et al for use with USB soundcards including the Focusrite Scarlett 2i2 2nd Gen (for Pi 3 Model B *not* Pi 3 B+).
or
Find the latest disk image from Locus Sonus, for use with USB and other soundcards and all versions of the Pi (up the Pi 4).

METHOD 5
Hardware
Phone + Windscreen (sock, beanie) + Battery (maybe)
Software
Locuscast mobile app for iOS or Android by Locus Sonus
or
Cool Mic streamer for Android (may work better for some models)
Notes
How this sounds depends on the phone and the sounds around - varying from very good to not really useable. Experiment and listen to find a good location and reduce wind roar.

METHOD 6
Hardware
Phone + audio adaptor cable + Primo microphones + Windscreen + Battery (maybe)
Software
Locuscast mobile app for iOS or Android by Locus Sonus
or
Cool Mic streamer for Android (may work better for some models)
Notes
A TRS - TRSS adaptor cable such as the Rode SC4 can work well. It gives a dual mono input via the headphone jack. Some phones (possibly newer ones) can give interference (seemingly from the strong signal broadcast to the mobile network). There is no substitute for testing..
Some adapters from IK Multimedia, including legacy adapters work well, eg for providing a mono interface between iOS or Android devices and XLR microphones requiring phantom power ( iRig pre).

Sign up for the broadcast, so we can confirm when we will pick up your sounds. This will usually be around first light (civil twilight) on Saturday 4 May in the Western hemisphere, or Sunday 5 May in the Eastern hemisphere. The length of the segment will depend on how many other streamers are active in your timezone.

Set up a page for your stream, to give some context for listeners. These pages will be archived at soundtent.org.

Set up an account at Locus Sonus so your stream joins the server and appears on the soundmap.

We can provide advice and tech support. We can sometimes provide equipment. Tell us what you are planning.

See the 2019 Call for Streams.

IN DEPTH

For setup and assembly of the latest steambox designed around the Focusrite USB soundcard, see this guide: Streambox (Focusrite version) . Or come to the London soundcamp and join a workshop.

To walk through setting up a Raspberry Pi streambox with the (now hard to find) Cirrus Logic soundcard), see these Pi Workshop Notes thanks to Balance Unbalance and V2 Lab for the Unstable Media.

Contact us for advice / support.

NOTES

This project is about live sound, rather than recording. (To share field recordings, explore the soundmap at radio aporee.)

Choosing a site, you may want to bear in mind the link with IDCD; but birdsong does not have to be a focus. Streams to date relayed sounds of wild boars, weather, VLF radiation, owls, self-noise, shrimps, cuckoos, air vents, hydrophones, radio intercepts, clocks, frogs. For more on soundcamps's broadly ecological concerns, see contexts.

Consider joining or setting up a dawn chorus event. IDCD for more information.

Once you're planning a stream, it doesn't take much to turn it into a soundcamp - which could be very small. For information, see the call for soundcamps.

1 to 2 May 2021

Soundcamp 2021 will head out-side, bringing together events at different scales at points of listening around the earth.

SC in London will organise the 8th edition of the long form radio broadcast: Reveil, as a frame for these autonomous activities.

See the call for streams, soundcamps, radios.

The call for live environmental streams is still open. We especially welcome proposals for streams in Pacific and Atlantic timezones, and from the global South. If you have questions, let us know: contact@soundtent.org.

To contribute a stream to the broadcast with a phone, laptop, Pi, see the
Streaming sounds guide.

Please set up a profile page for your stream and let us know your plans: contact@soundtent.org.

Reveil tracks the sounds of sunrise from 5AM UTC+1 on the first of May, travelling West on live audio feeds from streamers on the Locus Sonus soundmap. It tunes to the sounds of weather, machines, migrating birds, air traffic - creating a collective soundwork lasting one earth day.

Reveil 8 will be mixed live by Soundcamp in London UK (Grant Smith, Hannah Kemp-Welch), Valparaíso, CL (Fernando Godoy, Tsonami) Sunshine Coast, QLD (Leah Barclay, Biosphere Soundscapes) and Crete GR (Maria Papadomanolaki, Soundcamp).

Many of the live streams come from soundcamps - small or larger gatherings set up to supply a feed and as a way to be outdoors on Dawn Chorus Day. Sites for soundcamps have included inner city green spaces, remote cloud forests, swamps and rooftops - anywhere things sound interesting. They have ranged from audiences of hundreds to soundcamps of one or two. You can use a laptop, phone or Raspberry pi to send a live stream at daybreak from your location.

After the hiatus of 2020, SC London will be at Stave Hill, the UK's first urban ecology park, with a programme of Far Away Dance (ATOM), off-grid listening structure (PITCH2 - Public Works), the Acoustic Commons Study Group (WIND STUDY - Ella Finer, Flora Pitrolo), plus a collection of walks, talks, workshops, live and remote performances from parallel events in Ljubljana, Tokyo, Aix-Marseille, Barrow-in-Furness, Sunshine Coast, Black Forest.

To sign up for activities happening at Stave Hill Ecological Park, Rotherhithe, Channelsea Island inter-tidal zone, Hackney Marshes, and on-line, please follow links in the programme.

REVEIL SC 8 is a project of Soundcamp with the Acoustic Commons network: Full Of Noises (Cumbria UK) · Locus Sonus (Aix FR) · Radio CONA (Ljubljana SLO) · HMU (Crete GR) · Cyberforest (Tokyo JP).

In collaboration with Deptford Albany, Stave Hill Ecological Park, Russia Dock Woodland, Voices That Shake!

Broadcasting Partners: Resonance FM/Extra (UK), Wave Farm/WGXC (Acra, NY), Soundart Radio (UK) , NAISA Radio (Canada).
Tune in on Wave Farm (US), Resonance Extra (UK) and participating stations.

Follow the extended radio event on the Reveil Platform from 05:00 London time UTC+1 on 1st May to 06:00 on the 2nd.

With the support of Southwark Neighbourhoods Fund, Arts Council England and the Creative Europe Programme of the European Union.

Contact@soundtent.org to be in touch

Soundcamp CIC is a not for profit arts organisation. Events as part of SC8 Reveil are free. Please consider if you could support this project by making a donation. Thank you!

Oscillators

3 oscillators per scene, with 12 versatile oscillator algorithms: Classic, Modern, Wavetable, Window, Sine, FM2, FM3, String, Twist, Alias, S&H Noise and Audio Input.

Classic oscillator is a morphable pulse/saw/dual saw oscillator with a sub-oscillator and hard sync.

Modern oscillator is a mixable saw/pulse/triangle oscillator with an optional sub-oscillator mode for triangle (which can also change to sine or square) and hard sync.

FM2/FM3 oscillators consist of a carrier and 2 or 3 modulators and various options.

String oscillator uses two filtered waveguides to emulate plucked or bowed string sounds.

Twist oscillator is based on a very famous Eurorack macro oscillator, and it offers a myriad of synthesis options in a very simple and quick way.

Most algorithms (except FM2, FM3, Twist and Audio Input) offer up to 16-voice unison at the oscillator level.

Oscillator FM in 3 different configurations and ring modulation between oscillators 1-2 and 2-3.

Most oscillator algorithms (except FM2, FM3, Sine and Alias) are strictly band-limited, yet still cover the entire audible spectrum, delivering a clear, punchy and clean sound.

Noise generator with variable spectrum (available directly in the oscillator mixer).

Tom Mudd's max-based Gutter Synth standalone software (free)

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
A Max-based synthesis program exploring a set of eight coupled Duffing Oscillators.

Standalone versions of the synth can be found via these links:

Gutter synthesis is a purely digital synthesis process that creates very physical, acoustic-like sounds using a network of resonant Duffing oscillators. The software was created specifically for this project, and is included with the release as an equal part of the creative output. This version uses an interrelated set of eight Duffing oscillators and associated filter banks.

The synth was used for the Entr'acte release of the same name

Troubleshooting

For more recent operating systems, you may need to copy the gutterOsc.class file out of the gutterOsc for Java1.6 folder, and overwrite the existing file of the same name on the top level
