Join us for the first in a series of live events taking place across London this summer! FIELDNOTES Live is a new programme bringing together artists and writers working across sonic and textual terrains. We will be presenting ideas that are coming-into-being, poetic excavations and aural interventions.
The evening will include performances, readings, film, fragmentations, soundscapes and stereo fields.
Performers:
Titus Barker
Knee Gnaw
Yan Wai Yin
Rouzbeh Shadpey
There will be publications on sale and drinks!
Titus Barker uses abandoned obsolete technology to create an improvised and exploratory moment.
Knee Gnaw blends distorted violin drones, fragmented melodies and found sounds. Recorded in Hackney, his forthcoming debut album, Downtuning, responds to a noisy urban environment, where passing bus engines and subwoofers shake the windows in their frames. With his immersive, improvisatory solo show, he regularly appears in grassroots spaces around London.
Yan Wai Yin is a filmmaker based in London and Hong Kong. Her recent works are presented at M+ Museum, Blindspot Gallery (HK), AAA in A (US), Videonale, EMAF (DE), IFFR (NL), EXiS (KR), and TFAM (TW) among others.
Rouzbeh Shadpey is an artist, writer, and musician with a doctorate in medicine and indefatigable fatigue. He is currently a resident at the Jan van Eyck Academie in the Netherlands.
FIELDNOTES is an artist-run publishing project based in Newham in east London. We produce an annual print journal alongside a public programme of workshops, mentoring opportunities, radio broadcasts, screenings and readings. Founded in 2020, FIELDNOTES aims to promote and support non-conforming creative practices that pioneer new cultural forms. We seek to challenge the systemic inequalities that limit opportunities in the arts by working with individuals and communities who may not find support elsewhere. Our purpose is to provide a test site for poetic innovation, a place for new voices and collaborations, a venue for experimental modes and fresh departures between disciplines. We are interested in the third thing between two known things; we are looking for the spaces between translations and transitions.
