Julia Kent + Parallel_°41




Naples-New York. So far apart. Parallel_°41.

Parallel_° does not exist. It is a broken line, never drawn all the way but only thought.. dreamt perhaps like in a mountebank's dream maintaining a precarious balance on a chimerical wire..."lived and forgotten".
Actually this line does exist on the maps. It indicates an illusory path without a point of departure, without a point of arrival.
Music arises out of the cues that landscapes suggest to us accidentally, like a spice surprisingly added to our usual ingredients.
Improvisatory performances therefore; the audio/video each time identified with the space and the atmospheres of this or that latitude, in a constant dialogue with the environment and the shapes that characterize it.


Parallel_°41 are:

Julia Kent: cello, looping
Barbara De Dominicis: electronics, voice, field recordings
+
Davide Lonardi: visuals, photo/video reportage, graphics

Activating The Medium XIV




Each year, 23five curates Activating The Medium around a specific theme that seeks to underscore the connectivity between artists working with various methods and materials. Previous festivals have explored field recording, mimesis, the architectural impact from sound, and many other concepts and themes.
The 2011 festival explores the use of radio through composition and new media presentation. Looking back to the seminal works of Stockhausen, Cage, and Tenney through the culture jamming theatrics of Negativland and into the psychological minimalism of John Duncan, radio has served an invaluable and expressive tool within the continued history of avant-garde composition.
Hence, 23five will present works including Richard Garet's grey-noise constructions mined from radio interference and electromagnetic disturbances and Byron Westbrook's multichannel diffusion of live transmission and reception of radio signals.

Live/Film





Live/Film: Richard Garet with Kamran Sadeghi + David Linton


New York artist Richard Garet presents an evening of sound and light works by himself, Kamran Sadeghi and David Linton.
The three make audio-visual art using analog and digital means to create both music and video simultaneously, presenting pieces that contrast while complementing each other.
According to Garet, this will be a night ‘with a strong emphasis on process, light as material, concreteness, kinetics, and physically of both sound and light.’
