Hemispherics: Performance / Talk / Discussion
Saturday 28 April , doors open at 7pm-starting 7:30pm | £5 (suggested donation)
1+1=3 (oneplusoneisthree.org) is an interdisciplinary international collective working on
an interface between performative art, music and neuroscience. Their research addresses
the history of brainwave music, finding new ways of introducing contemporary neuroscience
techniques and artistic concepts in a mixing of thoughts and ideas that originated in the
late 60s with Alvin Lucier’s Music for Solo Performer. As part of their research,
the group has developed the EEGsynth (eegsynth.org) with which they can use
live brain measurements to interface with analogue modular synthesizers,
creating increasingly complex feedback loops between performer, audience
and the sonic space. 1+1=3 will be hosted at IKLECTIK for a short residency
during which they will begin the development of a new performance using
two performers interconnected via modular synthesizers, creating consonance
and dissonance, change and order, in a push-and-pull of conscious and unconscious brain processes.
