e Q is an installation curated by r a d i o q u a l i a  of four concurrent
sound projects by the following artists:




-> Ephemera :: Greg Peterkin

-> Tranception :: Matthew Thomas

-> Redundant Noise :: elendil

-> ovalmaschine :: r a d i o q u a l i a

-> vision system :: zzkt


                                   

-> Ephemera :: Greg Peterkin

The audience becomes composer in an integrated electronic media environment
utilising state-of-the-art light and movement sensors to initiate
fluctuating patterns of sound stimulation and composition. Ephemera enables
the audience to collaboratively construct music sequences through their
body movements.

Greg Peterkin is an electronic musician and new media artist, who creates
soundscapes fusing the aesthetics of ambient and experimental genres. He
has released CDs independently and through the Zonar Recordings label.

 



-> Tranception :: Matthew Thomas

Radio transmitters and receivers form the basis of a work which traverses
FM frequencies, in an exploration of unintended, or serendipitous 'audio
art'.
Tranception encompasses pre-rendered broadcast static and the random hum of
the airwaves, which is remodulated, remixed and rebroadcast live in the
gallery
through an antiquated transmission system. This audio material is broadcast
and received, alongside purpose driven radio content, and the audio relayed
from the
three other e Q installations. Transception enables the 'listener' to be
the musician, tuning in and out of transmitted material, revealing
complexity, density or silence.

Matthew Thomas is a musician and sound artist who has performed as part of
the mesm.eon sound collective, under the name Aquila, and under his given
name. His
releases have included Architecture (electronic sound inspired by the
architecture of Adelaide), ReModulation, and P3.

 

 

-> Redundant Noise :: elendil

Employing the mechanics of a former technological era, Redundant Noise is a
battle between exhumed aestheics, presented and authored on a Macintosh SE,
now threatened with retirement from the otherhood of technology, to a fate
as a novelty fishtank. Exploring the relationship between the utility of
lo-fi interaction, and the trash aesthetics of the retro-fetish techno
artefact, Redundant Noise re-evaluates the perceived 'obsolescence' of a
tool which was once responsible for changing the face of computing
(Macintosh SE's precipitated the desktop publishing explosion of the 1980s).

elendil is a sound and media artist who has worked collaboratively under
the name insect22, with many other artists, sound agents, designers,
engineers,technicians and robots. Sometimes known as mindfluX, insect22 are
responsible for the Mindvirus infozine and various other interactive
intrigues.


 


-> ovalmaschine :: r a d i o q u a l i a

The ovalmaschine connects the gallery audience with a global audience,
using the internet as a mode of transmission, reception and
experimentation. In a simultaneously physical and virtual sound
installation, the listener recomposes arbitrary fragments of decomposed
sound, folding and fusing live net.radio transmissions from around the
world, into a personal audiophonic creation.

r a d i o q u a l i a, is an online audio project aiming to open an
electronic portal into the eccentricities of antipodean radio space.
Informed by the discrete discourses surrounding science, art and
philosophy, the project creates the latitude for musicians and artists to
explore distances between understandings. The nucleus of r a d i o q u a l
i a, Honor Harger and Adam Hyde, are format artists interested in the
integration of different types of media within creative, communication,
technological and art contexts.


 


-> vision system :: zzkt

The vision system uses the simple mechanism of the slide projector to
dissect and depict ephemeral technical processes. e Q 's temp.mecha-droid
of distance zzkt, captures the incidental by-products of technological
curios in various states of deconstruction and deterioration, repurposing
these moments into a tangled optical substrate.

Visual and audio manipulator, zzkt, specialises in entropic treatments of
traditional form and function. He has been implicated in the experiments of
collaborative entities, insect22, mindfluX and farmersmanual.

He is currently based in Hamburg and works with the design group,
sprayrazorfish.
