Event: Unsound Adelaide. Tim
Hecker & Daniel Lopatin (aka Oneohtrix Point Never), Robin Fox, Raime and
Trinity (Biosphere, Lustmord, MFO)
Queens
Theatre, Thu Mar 14
It
began without introduction or fanfare. Two shadowy figures huddled over
keyboards, mixers and other assorted gadgetry launched an electronic fanfare of
their own that enveloped every square centimetre of the Queens Theatre. It was
quite literally an assault on the senses: volume was something you felt not
just heard. Often quite beautiful ethereal sounds were disturbed by sonic
rumblings that seemed to come from deep within the earth to shake the building
and vibrate your organs. A sound and light show followed that just took the
concept to a new level. Sound driven beams, waves, arcs, and swirls radiated
above and around us in a science fiction fantasy. Except of course it is not
sci-fi - it is now. Much excitement lays ahead for those who dabble in the
digital arts. *Unsound Adelaide part
1 was a stunning, if a little scary, entree into a field that could blow
peoples' minds.
