This is a strictly invite only gig, and I’ve procrastinated too long and they’ve closed the invitation list. Still, I’ll let you know what’s going on and hopefully I’ll get a nice recording of what promises to be quite an improvised set.

When: 24th November 2007
Doors 10pm o’clock

Where: Foley Street, Dublin 1

Price: Donation € 8,00 if possible

The Alphabet Set Collective presents:

A night of collaborative art, sound, movement and visual experimentation.

Bluefood with Emma Martin

As a classically trained dancer Emma Martin has over the past few months been attempting to tap into the memories and impressions that classical movement has imprinted on and in her physical being. With Paul’s soundscape performed live, Emma will use this to scratch the surfaces of instinctual movement to explore and experience the patterns of movement
memory.

Emma Martin and Paul Rowan have worked together previously on a Theatre Dance performance of ‘Play3sum’, by Jeff Gormley, in association with the Soulgunwarriors which was presented with great success at the Electric Picnic 2007. This is Emmas second time to collaborate with Bluefood.

Enagh Farrell with Ebauche

Especially for Passages, multi-disciplinary artist Enagh Farrell is teaming up for the first time with Alphabet Set’s Ebauche, who slowly builds layers of textured noise giving way to ambience while Farrell performs, slowly altering the audiences view, revealing and unravelling to create something unexpected. The collaboration is at once dark, yet strangely beautiful.

Kavi

Kavi will artistically build a visual environment with the musicians, fine artist and dancer involved. The conception lies in projecting real time feed as well pre-filmed material, that have been prepared with Emma and Enagh. real-time feed will build up existing mood of performance while being mixed with other video samples which will resolve much deeper
story of people involved. The video footage is very interpersonal and specially created for this particular performance.

Projections will be streamed on multiple screens and manipulated live with a midi controller.

Both of these collectives have impeccable taste in music and the music will be running from 4pm until midnight for the bargain price of €5.

This gig is also signalling the launch of Fringe’s new ABC Net EP - “Chairs” - which I recommend you check out.

So get your costumes on and head on down to Anseo on Sunday.

It’s gonna be mega!

Well, after a long break, the Force 10 crew from the North are presenting another of their excellent parties on the windswept rock of beauty that is Rathlin Island.

This year the Audio Terrorists are pulling out all the stops, bringing the Cyan Eyed marquee with a brand new sound system and, on top of this, a whole mess tent with a full kitchen and a truckload of delicious foodstuffs. We take immense pleasure in eating better in a field on this remote Island than we do at home.

We’re teaming up with Tí­r na gCasta and Deviant this year and you can find a complete line up on the Audio Terrorists website.

Can’t wait to hook up with all the Force 10 crew again!
