Soundweaving

Kerrtih Livengood (Illionois) and Richard Garet (Miami)

Experimental Electronic Music Encounters

Saturday, August 31, 2024

8PM

Edge Zones Center for Contemporary Art. 3317 NW 7th Ave. Miami, FL 33127.

Free admission/Donation. Reserve a spot here.

In this hour of experimental electronic sound, we are featuring two artists in solo sets and joint improvisation, exploring the contemporary music practices.

Soundweaving techno-wizard Kerrith Livengood will present several shimmering chains of sounds to delight and tantalize you. Her musical language evokes the classic sounds of analog synths, the vastness of the echoing cosmos, and the glitter of ‘90s anime magical girls. “punish me with love” from her 2024 album In The Name of the MOON summons the spirit of Sailor Venus, represented by AM distortion and erratic noise injected into a shifting field of white noise. Following that, she will make a whole lot of blips and bloops and some fluting with live processing, and you will be astounded at her musical inventiveness and humorous versatility.

Richard Garet’s approach to working with sound focuses on interacting with materials’ sonic properties as both source and instrument. Such materials are amplified EMF emissions, modified audiocassettes, dysfunctional tape players, circuit boards, sonification of light, and computer processing, among other explorations and with no particular hierarchy. Over the years, his work has evolved from laptop playing to a more active hands-on approach by embracing tactile malleability and establishing durational concrete methods and less digital playback.

Meet the Artist: TROY ROGERS

Meet the Artist series features Troy Rogers and his Weaving the Mesh artist talk.

Monday, February 12, 8-9 pm EST on Zoom

With support from the FETA Foundation and a 2023 McKnight Composer Fellowship, Rogers recently completed a six-week artist residency in Miami. His artist talk, “Weaving the mesh” will touch upon various ways in which his work designs, fabricates, and tends to mesh networks of several types, from a 3d-printed body suit and interspecies music making with dolphins, both of which were aspects of his residency, to HEXAS (Hexagonal Exta-territorial Aquautonomous State), a standardized series of regular hexagonal floating platforms stitched together by community members to create a floating stage and platform for research in underwater music making—a subproject of the underwater music festival SubSuperior, which weaves together artistic communities in Duluth, Miami, Detroit, and beyond.

About Troy Rogers:

Troy Rogers (Duluth, MN) is deeply involved in the creation, performance, and dissemination of early 21st century semi-nomadic robot herder’s music. His Robot Rickshaw was a human-driven cart full of musical robots designed for all-terrain performance scenarios ranging from guerrilla drive-by rapid-fire black-MIDI-burst-spewing dadaist street interventions to extended duration post-human dronecore therapy sessions. His instruments and performances joyfully teeter between mind-bending wonder and catastrophic failure, underscoring both a skepticism for the chances of contemporary civilization surviving its technological adolescence, and yet an unwavering belief in the power and potential in humans as amplifiers of low probabilistic states.

$20 at the door

The iconic Dutch poet, performer and electronic musician Jaap Blonk visits Miami. He is joined with a troupe of Miami-based poets and performers curated by Benjamin Shahoulian. The opening DJ set will feature Miami own Jose Hernandez Sanchez.

As a vocalist, Jaap Blonk is unique for his powerful stage presence and almost childlike freedom in improvisation, combined with a keen grasp of structure. He has performed around the world, on all continents, including Miami several times. With the use of live electronics and interactive visuals the scope and range of his concerts has acquired a considerable extension.

Jaap Blonk will introduce his work, placing it in the context of its roots: sound poetry, improvisation and new music. He will present both historic sound poetry and his own work, in the form of snippets of live performance, projection of texts and scores, sound examples, including his work with other musicians and / or with electronics, and video fragments. Jaap will then present his set Dr. Voxoid’s Next Move filled with poetry and electronics.

Benjamin Shahoulian is a poet, comedian, mc and event host from Miami Florida. He is a high caliber spoken word artist of many talents and has an eclectic approach to his craft. He touches upon the great poetic movements of history and reinterprets forms, concepts, and syntax through a modern, sometimes romantic and often ridiculous lens. He has produced events and collaborated with Miami’s most treasured creatives for many years and will introduce some of them at this event. He himself will be reciting brain breaking poems and spitting tongue twisting rhymes over mind boggling beats.

FETA in collaboration with The Bridge Miami present a festival of participatory experiences in which the Multicultural Nomadic Piano requests your presence as a creator of its physical and sonic pathways. You will construct, create, perform and observe.

Once upon a time, there manifested a piano navigating outdoor spaces over land, under water and in the air. This summer, Troy Rogers engineered a platform with an upright piano for The Committed Duo (Jennifer Beattie and Juraj Kojs) to perform while floating on the Lake Superior during the exquisite Sub Superior Fest in Duluth, MN. During the performance, the piano wished to be partially submerged, bathed and celebrated.

On December 2, 3 and 4, the Multicultural Nomadic Piano designed by Rachel Weiss is beginning its travel on land. Developed by Rogers, a wheeled platform will carry the piano to its desired destinations. The Committed Duo and friends will co-voice a serenading odyssey Allapattah, Wynwood and Miami Beach neighborhoods.

But first: on November 30 (1-5PM), Troy Rogers will lead an outdoor platform construction workshop, including mechanical and electronic designs at the Bridge Miami.

On Friday, December 2, you are invited to a full day multidisciplinary experience in which you will create for and with the Multicultural Nomadic Piano. During the day, you will be guided by the piano and mentors from a variety of disciplines: Rubens Sales and Da Jin Kim (pianists), Troy Rogers (music and electronics), Rachel Weiss (voice), Nicole Martinez and Juraj Kojs (audio-visual electronics and the garden), Rodrigo Arcaya (visuals) and Pioneer Winter (movement). Whether individual or group project, the fresh creations will be presented at the event at 8PM. Includes music by Tim Watson, Craig Peaslee, Edward Shilts, Armando Torrealba and Joshua Muetzel. Water and snacks will be provided to the participants. Water and snacks will be provided to the participants.

Then, on Saturday, December 3, the Multicultural Nomadic Piano will travel with music through Allapattah and Wynwood in the afternoon led by the Committed Duo (Jennifer Beattie and Juraj Kojš). Meet us at the Bridge Miami at 2PM, or catch us when on a move.

About Alba Triana:

Alba Triana is a Colombian-born sound and intermedia artist. Through immersive installations, sound and light sculptures, and vibrational objects, Alba’s work explores the relationship between our human condition and the essence of the natural world. Delving into vibration, energy, interconnectedness, and nature’s self-organization, Triana’s oeuvre probes how the vitality of everything, the alive and inert, greatly determines who we are and what emerges from ourselves.

Alba has received the Civitella Ranieri Fellowship (Italy/US), South Arts State Fellowship (FL, US), and was the winner of awards in Colombia such as IDCT National Composition Contest, National Electroacoustic Music Contest, “Otto de Greiff” National Contest, and Alliance Française Best Exhibition 2008.

Her work has been shown at 104, Biennale des Arts Numériques de Paris (France), Orange County Museum of Art (CA, US), CMMAS (Mexico), International Symposium of Electronic Arts, and Museum of Modern Art of Bogota (Colombia), among others. It belongs to art collections in Europe, Latin America, and the US, including the Otazu Collection and the Banco de la República de Colombia collection.
