Bring Your Own Beamer (part of the Flat Pack Festival) on the 16th April was a resounding success. Organised by Antonio Roberts and Pete Ashton; a wide range of artists participated making Vivid a kaleidoscope of colour, light, movement and bodies. The space transformed from white box into a multimedia assault on the senses.
I was lucky enough to be adding some musical accompaniment to the event following Bobby Bird from Higher Intelligence Agency / Modulate and managed to cram a wide range of electronic tunes (inspired by the visuals) into the hour and a half slot as possible. My mixing skills were rusty (having not aired them for some time) but people were responsive to what I was putting out and forgave some of my ham fisted mixes as the tunes were more important than how they were diced together.
I’m looking forward to playing more out with my iPads and mixer and hope to catch you at some in the not too distant future.

Bring Your Own Beamer (BYOB) hits Brum on the 16th March 2012.
The free event invites digital artists with projectors to show their original works in Vivid as part of the Flat Pack festival. I’m also pleased to announce that I have been invited to provide some digital audio accompaniment to the proceedings.
I’ve dusted off the laptop, got the Launchpad launching and am chopping up audio in Ableton Live in preparation.

One of my more experimental boundary and enveloping pushing tunes has recently been selected for the equally left field compilation “Compound Fractures” on the recently formed Dislocated Tones net label. I initially heard about the formation of the label through the ever informative www.getlofi.com and after a couple of weeks and months of effort I am pleased to announce that the comp has hit the virtual shelves of http://www.dislocatedtones.com/compound-fractures/.
No money need change hands as all tracks are freely downloadable and share-able with the entire world.

I thought it a top idea to set up a facebook page given how widely this is used throughout the world by the great and the good. To make life easier FB includes the ability to like and see who else likes the page. So far I have sent this on to my musically inclined friends and hope to get more followers over time so that I can set up a short URL.
