mediating meditations

The 2006 Australiasian Computer Music Conference took place in Adelaide last week.

I presented an artist talk, Sonic Gesturing, about wearable control interfaces and sound, and gave a lunchtime performance as ID-i/o with the live improvised work [re] - utilising accellerometers.

MetaSense - the duo I'm invloved with - also presented a discrete channel multichannel work, Tourist x2 composed from ambisonic field recordings in Barcelona last year.

The modification of these laws have many artists concerned - and rightly so - about the potential impact on freedom of speech and how this relates to their artworks.

as part of metasense, i submitted a work based around some graffiti found on a footpath in redfern...
