noting alva.noto

went to a gig at the performance space on sunday night - Carsten Nicolai aka. alva.noto - who performed a medium-scale av show. the grasp this man has on the control of both sound and visual, and his indepth understanding (or perhaps it's feel) for what he's creating; weaving together a delicious detroit/berlin mix of b+w posttechno sound/screen-scape.

it's as if the work emerges direct from his pores.

it did remind me of Ryoji Ikeda's performance of C4I at the Melbourne international arts festival last October.

what is it that draws me to the german/japanese aesthetic?
