SOUNDSET SALUTATIONS


Suzanne Thorpe
Flautist Suzanne Thorpe breathes life into her improvised music and navigates sure-footedly through cycles of feedbacking sound. From her Buffalo extra-currular experiments in the psych outfit Mercury Rev to her current electroacoustic explorations with collaborator Philip White in thenumber46 she has pushed forth sonically, expanding the role of the flute in contemporary music. Hers is balancing act between breath control and electronic chaos...air attack and feedback systems create walls of sound both organic and unpredictable.
Suzanne also organizes events for the Electronic Music Foundation and the recent Ear to Earth 2009 festival saw her role as conductor for the Olivia Block composition Biome, to be performed by a 12-piece ensemble.

Francisco Meirino/Phroq
Based in Luasanne, Switzerland and working under the moniker Phroq, Francisco works both with programmed and improvised architectures. Utilizing both broken analog devices and state of the art digital signal processing his electronic soundscapes explore shifting clouds of machine noise and offer windows onto how entropy can be utilized to create new structures.
Recent collaborators include Scott Arford, Zbigniew Karkowski and Tim Olive.
http://www.phroq.com/

Richard Garet
Born in Uruquay and currently based in NYC, artist Richard Garet works at the intersection of audio and visual culture taking an interdisciplinary approach. He has been a member of the ensemble ea, has an ongoing long distance collaboration with boston-based sound artist Brendan Murray and also produces video work as well as paintings.
Currently his solo performances involve working with custom built detectors and oscillators. He manipulates light into sound and maps out the electromagnetic signatures of each environment he is in.

Pekka Airaksinen

Pekka Airaksinen's 40 plus year journey in sound has established him as an innovator both in his native Finland and points worldwide. His is a world of alternative acoustics and life as a path learned living.
Pekka's work first gained notoriety for his role in the underground performance group The Sperm {1967-70} which offered a humor filled post-dada critique of conservative north European politics of the time. An early embracer of psych noise and free jazz, he later expanded his cosmology by releasing numerous compositions based on tibetan buddhism. His current work embraces psychological and filmic soundscapes via his restless explorations in electronica and noise.

Alexei Borisov and Anton Nikkila

Muscovite Alexei Borisov first created dissonant ripples in the Russian consciousness as a member of the 1980's new wave band Center. He continued as a proto-industrial provocatuer and his live shows more often approach theater-of-the-absurd performances rather than than a typical band gig.
His current work with Finnish sound-sculptor Anton Nikkila is entitled Typical Human Beings and offers deliberate arhythmia along with wry vocals which betray psychological observations of Russian urban life and the post-soviet cultural corpus.

NY Phonographers Meeting II_102009


Fotofono in conjunction with Das Kleine Field Recording Festival presents:

NY Phonographers Meeting II :
Patrick McGinley / Ben Owen / Richard Garet / Gill Arno

This Meeting follows the an earlier Meeting presented Oct. 17, 2009 at the Schoolhouse Loft in Bushwick, Brooklyn. The NY Phonographers Meeting works with a format originally presented at Engine27 by Christopher DeLaurenti and supported through the years by Ben Owen and others. The Meeting has convened each year to present approaches to field recording both raw and manipulated, both documental and composed. Each phonographer presents found material in an overlapping sequence with the other presenters. First and last moments of recordings overlap creating both fractured and seamless soundscapes.

This year the phonographers meetings were organized by Gill Arno of Fotofono and are in conjunction with Das Kleine Field Recording Festival organizer Rinus van Alebeek. Das Kleine Field Recording Festival is based in Berlin and this year also links together events in Leipzig, Montreal, NYC and Washington D.C.
