Liverpool on the 15th April. Was really good. Quite different to other gigs usually play was at the Blue Coat center a exhibition space, art studios and performance space. The gig itself was in an auditorium, a sit down affair with great equipment and technical guys. Very professional and friendly. The gig was full and featured a good mix of artists/musicians.
I was experimenting with my visuals playing a mixture of things i’m working in Modul8, Isadora and Quartz Composer using new and old footage and clips. I was the only person doing visuals and this worked well, the feedback was very positive and I had quite a few people come and talk to me after which was nice.
I also met a really nice girl who was filming the event and we chatted about how nice it was to see other women working in this indusry as is mostly men. She runs a smal cinema project in Liverpool and we discussed the possibilities of working together in the future.
In short it was very inspiring and very experimental, the acts were so different, Wrongbot a Leeds based duo played using modified childrens toys, Jacques Malchance played some lovely electronica and Tim Exile and Sarah Nicholls were playong a very experimental set with live loop recording with a modified piano. I came home and my mind was buzzing with ideas, in a way I think I prefer the ‘sound art’ gigs to the rave ones, there’s just so much more purity and experimentation and it all goes in, its like a synesthsic exhibition. Thumbs up.
