Experimental sound collective 'ways towards something' will be collaborating with Radio Stall to produce a live improvised sound performance in celebration of Vivid Projects' time in their current location ahead of their move to a new space.
About
Join ways towards something as they sound Vivid Projects out of Minerva Works and celebrate the practices held onsite since 2013 with their final ever event in the space.
For Sound Out the collective are joined by Radio Stall, who will be recording and broadcasting the work that manifests live onsite. This is a durational performance and you are welcome to drop in and respond to listening prompts developed by the group at any point.
'ways towards something' are a collaborative group led by Emily Warner, Sam Owen and Laura Fox, who have been convening on a monthly basis from Jan to July 2024 with support from Vivid Lab. They produce experimental sound that harnesses the spirit and aesthetic of DIY, with a focus on providing a safe and open environment which encourages women, trans, non-binary and gender expansive people to engage with new sound making processes. They work with open-source software and low-cost tools and instruments to research what manifests when creative momentum is given time and space to evolve through noise and sound-making.
There will be a second spart to this performance taking place this Autumn at Vivid Project's new site, so keep an eye out for more info.
For a taste of what's to come, listen to the ways towards something + Radio Stall broadcast that took place at Vivid Projects on the 13th of May here.
