(Xchange) deleuze conference + electronic music performances
Announcing two forthcoming events at Tate Modern:
Immanent Choreographies: Deleuze and Neo-Aesthetics
A conference at the Starr Auditorium, Tate Modern
London, UK
Friday 21 September
10.30 - 18.30
Saturday 22 September
11.00 - 18.30
The writings of Gilles Deleuze, and his collaborations with Félix Guattari,
have had a major impact on theory and practice in many disciplines. This
two-day event, a series of presentations and performances, will bring
together an international range of contributors to consider some of the
ways in which Deleuze's thought has been taken up and put to work in
different media and art forms. It sets out to explore the power of
Deleuzian neo-aesthetics, and also its limits. To what extent has it
transformed the production and reception of contemporary art practices?
What is at stake, artistically, politically and philosophically, in the
adoption of Deleuze by such practices?
The conference is divided into six sessions: Manuel De Landa, Andres Kurg
and Helen Stratford on architecture; Alain Badiou, Alexander Garcia
Duttmann and Iain Mackenzie on politics/ethics; Cristina Caprioli, Kim
Cascone and Pascale Criton on music/dance; David Rodowick, Astrid
Soderbergh Widding and Peter Hallward on cinema; Rosi Braidotti, Ian
Buchanan and Dorothea Olkowski on gender/sexuality/performativity; Robert
Fleck, Hans Ulrich Obrist and John Rajchman on visual arts.
In collaboration with Staffordshire University

Oval + Scanner + Kim Cascone
A concert at the Starr Auditorium, Tate Modern
London, UK
Friday 21 September
19.30 - 21.30
Performances by three major contemporary electronic musicians, Oval,
Scanner, and Kim Cascone complement the conference, 'Immanent
Choreographies: Deleuze and Neo-Aesthetics'.
Scanner - British sound artist, Robin Rimbaud - creates absorbing,
multi-layered soundscapes that twist technology in unconventional ways. His
controversial early work used scanned mobile phone conversations which he
wove into his soundscapes, thus focusing on the split between the public
and the private. As well as producing compositions and recordings, Scanner
has created soundtracks for films, performances, and radio plays, and
creates multimedia installations.
Oval - German sound sculptor, Markus Popp - explores the process and
systems behind the design of electronic music. Popp has developed his own
software, Oval Process, which manipulates looping sound samples. Oval
Process also exists as a CD and a sound installation, which enable
listeners to be involved in generating Oval music.
Both Scanner and Oval have recorded and released many CDs, and featured on
the compilations, Folds & Rhizomes for Gilles Deleuze (1995, Sub Rosa) and
In Memorium: Gilles Deleuze (1996, Mille Plateaux), tribute albums to
Deleuze.
American electronic musician Kim Cascone works at the intersection between
academic computer music and contemporary digital listening. He has worked
with David Lynch as Assistant Music Editor on Twin Peaks and Wild at Heart,
and founded Silent Records, the premier electronic music label in the
U.S.A. Cascone has released more than 15 albums of electronic music and has
worked as a collaborator and producer on numerous projects. He also writes
for Computer Music Journal and Artbyte Magazine.
In association with The Wire magazine
