Konserten avholdes i samarbeide med Musikkteknologidagene, MUSTEK, NTNU. --- KK NULL http://kknull.com/en/ (real name : KAZUYUKI KISHINO) was born in Tokyo, Japan. Composer, guitarist, singer, mastermind of ZENI GEVA and electronic wizard. One of the top names in Japanese noise music and in a larger context, one of the great cult artists in experimental music since the early 80's. In 1981 KK NULL studied at Butoh dancer, Min Tanaka's "Mai-Juku" workshop and started his career by performing guitar improvisations in the clubs in Tokyo. He continued by collaborating with MERZBOW for two years, and joining the band YBO2 (with Masashi Kitamura, the chief editer of "Fool's Mate" magazine and Tatsuya Yoshida, the drummer of RUINS) and starting the improvised noise/rock trio ABSOLUT NULL PUNKT (with Seijiro Murayama, the original drummer of Keiji Haino's FUSHITSUSHA), and also GEVA2 (GEVA GEVA) with Tatsuya Yoshida (RUINS) and Eye Yamatsuka (BOREDOMS). In 1985 he established his own label NUX ORGANIZATION to produce & release his own works and subsequently the bands such as MELT-BANANA and SPACE STREAKINGS. He also produced the series of "Dead Tech" (compilation albums by Japanese bands) which heralded Japanese alternative music boom internationally from the early 90's to date. In the early 90's he gained world-wide recognition as the mastermind, guitarist and singer of the progressive hardcore trio ZENI GEVA with their extremely heavy sound, releasing five albums produced by STEVE ALBINI (two on Jello Biafra's Alternative Tentacles label) and a few more on other labels such as NEUROSIS's Neurot Recordings. Also ZENI GEVA recorded twice for JOHN PEEL SESSION on BBC, and immensely toured throughout Europe, USA, Australia, New Zealand and Japan, playing hundreds of concerts. All the while, KK NULL has worked on his solo career and collaborated with other musical innovators such as Z'EV, CHRIS WATSON, DANIEL MENCHE, KEIJI HAINO, SEIICHI YAMAMOTO, JON ROSE, BILL HORIST, PHILIP SAMARTZIS, ALEXEI BORISOV, MATMOS, FRED FRITH to name a few, and has been invited to perform at international festivals such as "Sonar" in Barcelona (Spain), "Beyond Innocence" in Kobe/Osaka (Japan), "Exiles" in Berlin (Germany), "International Sound Art Festival" in Mexico City (Mexico), "Sergey Kuryokhin International Festival (SKIF-6 & 8)" in St.Petersburg & Moscow (Russia), "X-peripheria" in Budapest (Hungary), "Totally Huge New Music Festival" in Perth (Australia), "Avanto Helsinki Media Art Festival" in Helsinki (Finland), "All Tomorrow's Parties UK", "International Festival Musique Actuelle" in Victoriaville (Canada), "Electron" in Geneve (Switzerland), "Presences Électronique" in Paris (France) and more. After playing the guitar as his main instrument for some twenty years, KK NULL has gradually moved towards a more electronic approach. In recent years he has concentrated his efforts on his solo & collaborative recordings, exploring the outer territories of electronica, creating intense clashing wave of noise, structured electro- acoustic ambience, broken down rhythmics, scattered pitch sculptures, droning isolationist material which could be described "cosmic noise maximal/minimalism". At present KK NULL has more than 100 titles of recordings released (inc. solo, bands, collaborations, compilations). JULIEN OTTAVI http://www.noiser.org/ http://www.myspace.com/julienottavi A mediactivist, artist-researcher, composer / musician, poet and tongues destroyer, experimental film maker and anarchitect, founder and member of Apo33, Julien Ottavi is involved in research and creative work, combining sound art, real-time video, new technologies and body performances. Since 1997, he develops a composition work using voice and its transformation through computer. Active developer of audio/visual programs with Puredata, he has also developed since many years DIY electronics (radio transmitters, oscillators, mixers, amplifiers, video transmitters...etc) in the perspective of knowledge sharing on technological development. Main developer for the Gnu/Linux operating system APODIO for digital art and A/V & streaming diffusion. His practices is not limited to the art spheres but crosses different fields from technological development to philosophy / theoretical research, biomimetic analysis & experimentation. Since many years he reflects on the relations between experimental practices and collective practices within the creation of autonomous collective groups, putting in question the authorship strategy of the “art ideology”. Regular collaborators of reconized artists : Jenny Pickett, Brandon Labelle, Keith Rowe, Kasper T. Toeplitz, Jerome Joy, Ryan Jordan, Joachim Montessuis, Christian Galarretta, Achim Wollscheid, Elpueblodelchina, Zbigniew Karkowski, Randy Yau, Ilios, Philippe Roux, Dominique Leroy, Dion Workman, Yvan Etienne, Mike Bullock, Phill Niblock, Seth Cluett, KKnull, Jean-Louis Costes...etc. Julien Ottavi has exhibited, performed and presented his work extensively over the last 15 years : STEIM – Amsterdam, Junctions/Verbidingen Festival – Brussels, Piksel festival – Bergen – Norway, Knitting Factory Old Office, NYC, Art museum of Nantes – France, DEAF (V2.nl) Rotterdam, Salon Bruit - Berlin,, TWEAK FESTIVAL- Limerick/Ireland, PDCONF09 - Sao Paulo / Brazil, Subtle Technologies Festival - Toronto / Canada, MAL AU PIXEL - Paris / FR, Goldsmiths College / London - UK, Riam Festival - Marseille - France, MobilFest III - Sao Paulo / B&razil, Bandits-mages Bourges - France, RadiaLx2008 - Lisbon, European Sound Delta - Bulgaria/Roumania, Architectones & Nuit Bleues - Arc & Senans/France, Aloardi todo es chevere!!

While at art school, he organized a series of concerts, bringing international artists from the experimental scene to Nantes, drawing touring musicians to movements happening outside of Paris. This became not just a destination but a nexus for collaborations. This resulted for example in the group Formanex to perform graphical scores of electro-acoustic music, and in Apo33, an artists collective to facilitate, nurture, and disseminate creative audio practice. In this way, Julien represents the energy and initiative of a present day artist – activist through practice, organizing as performance, publishing as networking, open source and open aesthetic. This fluidity of working across boundaries of style and role are seen in his music, physical with computer, performative and reflective. (introduction by Atau Tanaka) GISLE FRØYSLAND http://www.220hex.org 220hex / Gisle Frøysland has for over a decade been one of the keyfigures of the Norwegian electronic arts scene. He is a founding member of BEK - the Bergen Centre for Electronic Art, initiator/maintainer of the FLOSS videoapp MøB, and main organizer of the Piksel festival in Bergen, Norway. Since the early 80s he has been working as a musician, VJ and visual artist. "Frøysland's work is an inquiry into what he himself calls the "hype traps that the computer and media industry wants us tobelieve in". In pieces like "Dodonews" and "the FaceBot", he turnsthese traps into dialogic scenes, thereby revealing hidden powerstructures and presumptions. The dislocations of Frøysland form a media critique that questions not only the cybernetics of the net but also its utopian claim; neither browsing nor digital interpretation can free itself from contextual references.

Video link: https://vimeo.com/166030181 Ruin Porn is an intense sensorial journey into the future past of a dance as a ritual and of a theatre as a site. Four personas that are gradually materializing out of the cloud of light and sound, are both pathetic ruins of what was before and a never fulfilled promise of what is yet to come. They are creatures forever caught in between departing and arriving into the present moment of the performance.

I have investigated three key areas of extension: the physical structure of the Harp and its internal resonant spaces, mimicry as an exploratory tool useful in better understanding the Harp in relation to the Australian environment, and improvisation both free and structured used to challenge the vocabulary of the Harp in solo performance and collaborative contexts.

  • In Search of Japanoise Globalizing Underground Music
    16 In Search of Japanoise Globalizing Underground Music David Novak In 1990, I had just returned from a year of teaching English in Japan, so I was surprised when I came back to college in Ohio and started to hear about “Jap- anese Noise Music.” Some cut out the “music” idea altogether and called it all “Japanese Noise,” and others just compressed it to “Japanoise.” The name was supposed to identify a specic Japanese type of “Noise,” which was already a pretty vague genre name. Some friends added that its top artists mostly came from the Kansai region and the cities Osaka and Kyoto where I’d been living. I’d run into some noisy punk rock and experimental music in little under- ground record stores and small clubs around Japan … but Japanoise? I had never heard of it until I was back in the United States, when the Boredoms’ LP Soul Discharge found its way to the college radio station where I was a DJ, and tapped into the emerging independent music scene. At the time, the ow of underground cassettes, CDs, and vinyl into the station was increasing on a daily level. But dropping the needle on Soul Discharge released the most spectacularly dissonant racket I’d ever heard, tog- gling through a spectrum of styles and sounds. Sometimes Boredoms sounded like a hardcore band, sometimes a random Dada cutup of popular culture: it was desperately heavy but also funny as hell. You couldn’t possibly take it seriously, but, at the same time, it demanded your full attention.

    Third Annual Conference December 5-7, 2008 Improvisation and Identity: Discovering Self and Community in a Trans-Cultural Age ISIM promotes performance, education, and research in improvised music, and illuminates connections between musical improvisation and creativity across fields. Keynote Address: Roscoe Mitchell Featured Performers and Speakers: Joëlle Léandre and India Cooke isim INTERNATIONAL SOCIETY FOR IMPROVISED MUSIC THIRD ANNUAL CONFERENCE About ISIM Mission Statement ISIM promotes performance, education, and research in improvised music, and illuminates connections between musical improvisation and creativity across fields. Narrative Reflecting the melding of diverse cultures, ethnicities, disciplines, and ideas that shapes society at large, today’s musical world is increasingly characterized by creative expressions that transcend conventional style categories. Improvisation is a core aspect of this global confluence, and in recent years the phrase “improvised music” has emerged as a kind of an overarching label for much of this eclectic musical activity. Initially used to describe jazz and its offshoots, the phrase now encompasses a broad spectrum of formats—from computer music and multi-media 1 collaborations to string quartets, bebop quintets and multiethnic fusion. Enabling spontaneous interactions between musicians from the most disparate backgrounds, the dissolution of boundaries between performers and listeners, and access to the transcendent dimensions of creative experience, improvisation is at the heart of a new musical paradigm that is uniquely reflective of contemporary life. Musical improvisation may also shed light on creativity in a wide variety of fields, as corporate executives, educators, athletes, medical professionals and other practitioners recognize an improvisatory core to success, progress, and fulfillment in their respective disciplines.

Laser: “Light Amplification by Stimulated Emission of Radiation” The catastrophe is not coming, it is here. We are already situated inside of it. When the world is holding itself together through the infinite management of its own collapse it is useless to wait for a breakthrough. In fact, to go on waiting becomes madness. That we are deriving pleasure from the repetition of our habits in the midst of the catastrophe is what makes this repetition into a ritual.

  • Some Proposals for Reclaiming the Practice of Live Music
