[Apologies for crossposting]
OUTPOST is back for 2010 with a brand new spanking venue, a
reinvigorated format and a crew of core artists to help facilitate these events
and keep the good times rolling.
WHERE AND WHEN?
WEDNESDAY FEBRUARY 24 @ DJ WASABI'S new creative space
TETRIS - 36 Phoenix St, Brunswick (2 minutes walk from
Brunswick Railway Station)
8 p.m. till 11:59 p.m.
As always, entry is free, and it's a great opportunity to meet some
like-minded artists, see/hear/participate in some great new work and
even try out some of your own new material.
So...BRING YOUR GEAR AND HAVE NO FEAR!
SPICY FORMAT CHANGES FOR SHARE OUTPOST 2010
Feature Artist Performance and Informal Q'n'A: We have at least
one scheduled feature artist each month.
This year, we thought it would be great to also have artists talk about
their processes, their gear and find out a bit about what they have been
checking out.
This informal Q'n'A will be hosted by our own Byron Scullin.
THIS MONTH'S FEATURE ARTIST IS..
DJsqgl (DeeJay Sqiggle) is venturing down from the serene surrounds of Lake
Macquarrie, NSW to give us a mashup set and talk about his a/v set up on
Tracktor.
Sqgl (a.k.a.
Joe Koan) was an active part of Clan
Analogue in the 90s performing with
Signal-to-Noise and
the improvising techno trio
DoSE (Department of Social
Engineering).
Prescribed Stimulus Jam: This may be a key word/style/type of
material to be used.
The topic for extemporization by performers will be posted on
http://shareoutpost.org a few weeks out. It will also be
included in the OUTPOST mail-out the week before the monthly event.
THE THEME FOR THIS MONTH'S P.S.J.
IS MY FAVORITE WAVEFORM
More
Impromptu Shorter Sets: whether you want to give a tasty snack sized
version of something you are working up or if you just feel like performing
something more spontaneous - this is the arena for you.
Variation In Performance: We love it when things are less
predictable, lets mash up different numbers of players, maybe try a round robin
tag team type of affair?
