Distance Anatomy presents an experimental format of networked dance and music performance, bringing together sound artists based in London and dance artists from the USA to an evening of unique audiovisual experience. Curated by Skopetur, and provided with low latency network technology developed by Hybrid Live research project from Goldsmiths & Standford University, Distance Anatomy transmits audio and motion capture data in real time between IKLECTIK and a satellite location for each improvised live music set and dance performance, with visual artists Vytas Niedvaras reinterpreting the moving bodies on the screen in humanoid forms.

Moa Pillar

Moa Pillar is the project of Fedor Pereverzev, a music producer, sound designer and teacher from Moscow. Beginning his music career with organic beats and broken rhythmic patterns interplaying with wooden folkish sounds and neoclassical tones, his sound later evolved into grand, majestic experimental techno/bass – heavy monolithic rhythms, lush ethereal soundscapes, mesmerizing vocals, choir-like grandeur and spiritual calmness. Fedor’s collab with Helm, paired with footage from Siberian towns and Altai Mountains, was one of the highlights of the Unsound Krakow 2016 festival. He also co-founded the Monoleak company, which has recorded music for companies such as NASA and Samsung.
