Join us for an experimental sound & art event to explore the intertwining between sound, time, and space. Eight sets of emerging London-based sonic artists will present a immersive sonic journey through multiple temporalities, from the finest micro-sounds to the most expansive cosmic soundscapes, and reveal portals to macrobiotic, liminal, and even fictional spaces. Bold sonic experiments will take place to challenge your perception of time and space, and explore the hidden connections between duration, places, and memories.
Warning: Some performances might use strobes and/or flashing lights.

Zhao Jiajing
Zhao Jiajing (b. China) is a composer, sound artist, and new media artist. Zhao Jiajing works across multiple disciplines, including spatial sound, new media, performance, and installation. Key themes of his work include time, consciousness, chaos, and surveillance. He approaches sound as spatial-temporal portals leading to many possible worlds. With extensive use of field recordings, sound collage, and granular synthesis techniques, he creates sonic experiences that trigger cross-sensory imaginations. Probabilities and uncertainties are the kernel of his practice. He employs chaotic algorithms and cultivates generative systems for his artistic creations to sprout into unforeseen variations autonomously.
