Corpora Aliena

Next Corpora Aliena at Iklectik!
Saturday 13th July, 2019 - doors 7pm / music 7.30pm - £8 adv / £10 otd (fees apply)
IKLECTIK - Old Paradise Yard - Carlisle Lane - SE1 7LG -London... Corpora Aliena is pleased to present a concert of diverse experimental music performances featuring leading international and pioneering musicians and composers.
For this Corpora Aliena event, the Russian artists Pavel and Elvira Zhagun will be making a rare visit to London, and will give a live performance of ‘Digitalizm’, an A/V generative acousmatic composition that uses custom-made generative computer programme. This is a rare opportunity to see two of the pioneers of the Moscow experimental music, poetry and video art scenes.
Also included in the programme are:
Avsluta (Lucie Stepankova), whose new composition ‘Ripple’ was produced utilising metallic instruments and objects as the main sound source. This work is a contemplation on the sonic potentiality of these materials and objects and their extended sonorities arising from their interaction with human body and digital technology. As in most of her works, her focus will be on meticulous investigation of physical and phantom sound creation and detailed inquiry into their flow, development and interrelationships.
Kate Carr will create A performance featuring field recordings, objects, and instruments.
Bernhard Living will be performing a live version of his ‘Composition 2019/06’, which is a continuation of his explorations with tonality - interference patterns - and phases shifting. The music is sparse with glacial movement - maximal repetition and minimal variation.
In addition to the music performances, there will be a screening of two experimental videos by the artist Rebecca Salvadori. The videos are ‘Exercise A and ‘Exercise B’, which Salvador describes as being synchronized and non-synchronized exercises of arrhythmic empathy. - and present a series of animated shapes and colors, assembled together according to constantly evolving combinations of intentionalities. The combinations never repeat; the arrhythmic evolving movements attempt to break free from a mechanical, predetermined outcome. The videos have been commissioned by composer Sandro Mussida for his Ventuno Costellazioni Invisibili limited edition vinyl release.
The Corpora Aliena concert is an exciting opportunity to see and hear some of the leading international musicians and artists who are an important part of the contemporary experimental arts and music scene.
Corpora Aliena is curated by Dasha Birukova and Bernhard Living

Corpora Aliena presents ‘Eclectic Electronics’ Saturday 25th May, 2019
Saturday 25th May, 2019 - doors 7pm / music 7.30pm - £8 adv / £10 otd (fees apply)
... IKLECTIK - Old Paradise Yard - Carlisle Lane - SE1 7LG -London Corpora Aliena is pleased to present a concert of diverse experimental music performances based on the theme of ‘Eclectic Electronics’ - and features leading international and pioneering musicians and composers. Included in the programme are;
Graham Dowdall (aka Gagarin) will be performing a selection of pieces from his recent Phenomenology EP and Corvid album projects, and using these as the basis for improvisation. The performance will also make extensive use of field recordings manipulated alongside electronic sounds, beats and rhythmic patterns - and triggered from hardware samplers, drum pads and iPad, creating a mix of evocative atmospheres and noise;
Liz Helman will perform her new digitally-based composition ‘Amorphous’, that explores ambient textures with nuanced and meditative drone elements;
Bernhard Living will present a live performance version of his ‘Composition 2010/01 (Object World)’, which consists of sparse and slow moving sinewave-based sound textures - glacial movement with maximal repetition and minimal variation;
And Bill Thompson will be performing a new piece for Moog guitar, electronics and found objects. Previously performed and honed over the past year in several live performances, the new work is scheduled to be released in late summer 2019.
In addition to the music performances, there will be a screening of ‘Una Película Recroda (A Film Remembered)’ (2015) by the Spanish experimental filmmaker Andres Duque, and with music by Morten Chrone. Using the materiality of the film process Andrés Duque has created a mysterious and dream-like film made from TV captured images of ghostly figures coming out of a black screen.
The Corpora Aliena Eclectic Electronic concert is an exciting opportunity to see and hear some of the leading international musicians and artists who are an important part of the contemporary experimental arts and music scene.
