Saturday 21 February 2009, Sonic Arts Research Centre, 1-3pmThis event forms part of "24 Fragments - 24 hours of music, neuroscience and performance at 24 sites across the UK".
Sound artist Paul Stapleton, violinist Gascia Ouzounian and improvisers Pedro Rebelo and myself will be teaming up for a feast of sonic explorations during the 24 Fragments event, a 24-hour festival funded by The Wellcome Trust, including 24 sites of The Fragmented Orchestra, which are linked up by microphones that pick up sound at each site.
The four of us are all academic staff at Queen's University Belfast’s School of Music and Sonic Arts. What unites us improvisers is our penchant for contemporary, intermedia, improvised, and electronic musics as well as our shared theoretical interest in networked music, virtual environments, social web technologies, the body in performance, performative research methods, and sound art.
