conceptsandmeanings


friday - another faster than sound at snape and quite possibly the most sublime so far - called Spheres & Splinters – a collaboration between Tod Machover who together with cellist Peter Gregson, ambsonic sound designer Ben Bloomberg and United Visual Artists http://www.uva.co.uk/latest created a multi-layered 3D soundscape with stunning yet wonderfully reserved and considered visuals - the walk back to Iken Cliff afterward in the dark was truly awe-inspiring – the whole evening was something that i am still thinking about – did i witness the beginning of something truly new? http://www.fasterthansound.com/ today has seen me giving a presentation and running a workshop for the Eastern Region Textile Forum around the idea of concepts and meanings http://www.ertf.org.uk/ it was a successful event with much thinking and many starting points for the members to go away with – along with a simple yet loaded small book that was made in the workshop. it was also nice to catch up with last some of years MATC students. here is a link to the presentation in two parts - http://www.slideshare.net/l.bicknell/lecture-dragon-hall-part-1
