PERFORMANCE EXCHANGE

Date: 12 Jan 2018, 8pm

Venue: Goldsmiths, University of London

We were invited by London-based artists Yarli and Juls to participate in an experimental performance that explored sound, movement, electric matters and calligraphy.

Technical Support: Andy, Pete Jardine

Several daily objects were randomly selected and then deliberately re-considered and re-constructed to deliver a set of sound device. The electric station, formed by a mixer, an oscillator and some other acoustic components, not only amplifies the resonance but also interferes the presentation of percussion and calligraphy improvised by the body movement. The demonstration challenges the accustomed appearance of ordinary things and transforms them into a tool, a platform, or even a new artefact with an alternative definition.
