Speak Percussion UK/Australia Tour 2022
2022 Performance TourSpeak Percussion tours two works to the United Kingdom in November 2022.
Systems of Control at the Wired Lab
2022 PerformanceSet amongst the sweet lanolin infused surrounds of the old Rosemount shed, Speak Percussion will activate the site through a participatory percussion event.
Taking shearing and the unique and weathered properties of the shed as both the site and sound for the work, this performance piece uses vibration, attack and repetitive percussive movements to conjure a sound harking from site-specific practices of percussionists and sheep shearers.
Scream Star
2022 PerformanceA triptych featuring leading compositional voices in the experimental and conceptual music world, responding to all-too-familiar tropes of the live music and visuals format.
“Scream Star is many things: absurd and funny, moving and creative, precise and demanding. It is, in short, seriously good music-making. It is performance art and theatre, and new music-making at its finest.” – Limelight
A clearing at Melbourne International Film Festival
2022 PerformanceThe residual remains of erasure; almost imperceptible traces on the landscape and psyche.
