[spectre] Neanderthal electronics meets Biophysical music - summer events in Estonia

[Marco Donnarumma]

(sorry for possible x-post)

Dears,

hope to find you well.

Here to inform you about this humble and exciting Estonia tour Derek Holzer
and myself are starting today and the ways you can join us.

The tour includes an artistic residency in a remote spot, a one-day bus
tour to play music in abandoned villages, and a double workshop on
Soundboxes and Biophysical music performance.

\\\\\\\\\\\ Artistic Residency at MAAJAAM
Valgamaa, EE.

- The residency will serve to develop new writing towards the realisation
of a new musical performance for body technologies to be premiered at
Spectrum, NYC, this October.

MAAJAAM is a project space in an old farm in Estonian countryside where art
meets technology. Substituting the urban environment with a hilly rural
landscape allows us to observe technology in it’s pure form and analyze
it’s connections to us and the nature.

\\\\\\\\\\\ Olematute kylade projekt / Project for Non-existent Villages
Võru, EE.

- One-day tour playing electro-acoustic and biophysical music across
several abandoned villages in the Estonian countryside.

Expect some modular and visceral sounds resonating crackling walls:

Audience, curators and artists travel together on a bus throughout a whole
day of sound, silence, ghost houses and unexpected acoustics. Those
villages are considered as null pointers; those points existing on maps and
in cultural memory but which have lost the objects being refered to.
Participating artists excavate embedded meanings in these culturally
changing environments and search for intersections of traditional and
contemporary cultural practices.

Book a spot for on the bus for 1 Euro by emailing to buss at taavisuisalu.com.


\\\\\\\\\\\ Soundboxes + Xth Sense workshops
Tallinn, EE.

Intensive two days crash course on building and making noise with the
Soundboxes handmade electronics, and the Xth Sense biophysical wearable
instrument.
