Forthcoming Disinformation events...
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
A Goldsmiths "Thursday Club" presentation on the ideas and work of the electronic music and art project Disinformation takes place in the Seminar Rooms of the Ben Pimlott Building at Goldsmiths, at 6pm on Thurs 5 Feb 2009. The presentation focusses on Disinformation's use of electromagnetic and radio noise phenomena as raw material for various forms of kinetic and sound art productions, and features a live demonstration of high-voltage "Circuit Blasting", also featuring Mark Pilkington (of Strange Attractor). Definitely NOT to be missed...

"Tuning down into the lowest reaches of the radio spectrum, particularly in night's shadow of the solar wind, the listener encounters a range of diverse phenomena, opening a window on a world alive with electrical activity. Whistling atmospherics from lightning and thermonuclear EMP ricochet along field lines of the magnetosphere, bouncing between hemispheres of the globe: storms crackle: biostatics whisper, hiss, and sigh: televisions scream: pylons and power loops drone and roar: military signals, the musical pulses of navigation systems, timecodes, and coded data broadcast deep beneath the sea. Time and space divided, live ‘vivisection of particle physics, voices, map lines, weapons, mirrors hidden by the illusion of quiet." - Disinformation "R&D" CD sleevenotes © 1996
"Through nights black depths in danger's garb arrayed..."
John Clare (1793-1864)
