The Fornax Experiment

I've been working on a new collaboration recently, a site specific performance using sound and visuals, for the Quiet Music Festival. It will be performed in an old incinerator-turned-arts-centre this Sunday.

THE FORNAX EXPERIMENT
A hauntological work by Jim Batt, Anastasia Russell-Head and Gus Weate, investigating the residual atmospheres of the incinerator site through evocative manipulation of sound and video. Combining live harpsichord and archaeoacoustics with subtle visual projections, the performance creates a space that entices the audience into their own imagined recollections of the past.

The project has been getting quite a bit of attention, including an interview with The Age 'Recovering The Music Of Ashes'.

Here's a moody photo from a late night tech run, calibrating the lab equipment.
