August has been a little more of a quiet month with lots of tying up loose ends on existing projects and preparing for upcoming ones. It’s been mostly housekeeping, and there was plenty of it to do. I’m not going to bore you with the details. Instead, here’s a little taste of what’s on the cards coming up over the next few months:
Daniel Crooks – still from Intersection #5
- A new music/sound work for Daniel Crooks. He’s installing a large work in a new building down in Melbourne’s Docklands precinct. See image above.
- Sound design and music for a new Australian feature film, again riding shotgun with Mr J. David Franzke.
- An album of soundtrack fused rock for post-pagan power rituals hosted by the power elite. David Thrussell has something to do with this as well – naturally.
- A live show with Mr. Jeremy Dower where I’ll be breaking out the MIDI sax to add some snuffly colour to what I can only describe as hi-fi down-tempo jazz for the 8-bit generation. Mr. James Cecil will also be taking a deck chair and MIDI hand-drum out onto the jazz patio with us.
- A return to contemporary dance land with the ladies and gentlemen of Chunky Move. Ben Frost will be hanging about bringing his experiences of making love to Icelandic glacial forms to bear on some sonic architectures for the dancers.
- A bit of a snazzy PA and live performance with Dr. Philip Brophy. He’s still a punk ass bitch and he’s opening a video installation next to a body of water in downtown Melbourne. It’s for a festival, don’t you know?
- A fair bit of live sound for the return of the What is Music? festival, in both Sydney and Melbourne.
And more besides….
C’mon daylight savings! I’m ready for you now.
