Daniele Gambetta (Italy) with Microsoft Voices

$17.50 Presales

Daniele Gambetta is a student from Italy on a 6-month research period in Pōneke. Over the last 5 years he's been playing with live coding (aka 'Algorave'), which is a set of techniques to play electronic music using programming languages. He uses scripting tools (Foxdot, Python, Supercollider) to create synths and sample patterns and will start the evening with a workshop about his methods.

Microsoft Voices is a punk laptop trio of Nell Thomas, Daniel Beban and Jonny Marks. They use only the text-to-speech function of Apple Mac's very basic 'Text Edit' software to create multi-layered machine vocalisations, exploring the distant hinterlands of non-meaning and unvoiced speech sound.

$17.50 presales available via UTR
