Soundasaurus Festival (Calgary)
Sunday, 16 January 2011 00:34
We're pretty psyched about visiting Calgary, Alberta (Canada) less than a week away! No, it's not because we love way-below-freezing weather -- but because of the Soundasaurus Festival! Best of all, it will be our rare Nosferatu soundtrack show (aka Reels Of Steel) which we've done just once in the last six years. We'll also participate in a group Q&A. There's also sound installations and other events, all at the Epcor Centre for the Performing Arts.
Soundasaurus - Evolution Control CommitteeJanuary 20, 2011EPCOR CENTRE's Soundasaurus Festival presents Evolution Control Committee: Reels of Steel and guestsThursday, January 20, 2011 at EPCOR CENTRE's Engineered Air Theatre Doors open 6:30pm | Show starts 7:30pm Evolution Control Committee What happens when you make a movie soundtrack using only soundtrack albums of other movies? The Evolution Control Committee composes a score to the silent horror classic Nosferatu resulting in a fun collage of familiar tunes, DJ’d live. In Reels of Steel a tightly-composed soundtrack is spontaneously created using only vinyl records, pushing the limitations of copyright. Followed by a Q&A with the artists. Guest: Ivan Reese Mary Everest Boole is a narrative performance of stochastic musical cybernetics featuring a unique software program which allows a computer to listen to its environment for sounds and resynthesizes them into musical phrases. Festival installations by: Luba Diduch I saw you drown...in the Sargasso Sea, is an installation piece employing a microphone and sound booth where environmental sounds and vibrations are recorded and remixed with underwater recordings. Dr. Thomas Lawrence Three Songs of a Green Eucharist is a soundscape based on spiritual music compositions recorded over three years. |
Live in Berlin @ NK - TOMORROW!
Monday, 03 January 2011 04:59
Our final public stop in Europe: Berlin.
Now that our time in Warsaw is over, we've arrived in Berlin to enjoy Silvester and one last chance to share The ECC with the EC. We'll set up the VidiMasher 3000 and to jam at the DIENSTbar event tomorrow, along with Hilot Lilanth and Semerssuaq. Not in Berlin? Listen online! The event will be broadcast on FM radio and internet from midnight to 2am (that's 3p-5p in California) ending with a blind date, pitting The ECC on a duet with a mystery musical date!
This is your ONLY chance in Berlin to see what an ECC show is like!

VidiMasher set at Przetwory (Recycles) 5
Monday, 06 December 2010 08:53
Poland may not be the first country you'd imagine to be green (in the recycling sense of the word), but this weekend marks the 5th year of their international Przetwory (Recycles) Festival. Artists will spend a few days remaking unwanted materials into amazing works of art and design, to be judged by an international jury of fine arts movers & shakers. Hosted in a giant warehouse in the Praga district of Warsaw, the event will draw an audience of thousands.
The ECC will represent at this Maker-Faire-style event with the VidiMasher 3000, using it to create something more than a DJ set, but short of a full performance. This is your best chance in Warsaw to see what an ECC show is like!
PRZETWORY/RECYCLES 5OPENING TIMES [...] After four-year struggle related to organizing RECYLES event we can easily position ourselves on the radical other end of the rainbow towards mass production. We are promoting totally different approach to the product by supporting D.I.Y. idea and by endorsing unique design solutions. This year we are willing to go one step further by asking the artists a provocative question: HOW TO SURVIVE? |
ECC RadioLab @ Open Studios/Studio Otwarte (Warsaw)
Thursday, 25 November 2010 12:45
As you probably know The ECC is currently enjoying time abroad living and working in Warsaw, Poland as part of the artists-in-residence program at the Centrum Sztuki Wspólczesnej (aka the Center for Contemporary Art) in Ujazdowski Castle. And being one of the eleven artists who are currently working here, we are participating in the upcoming open studio exhibition. So if you are located here in Warsaw, we invite you to join us LIVE at the Castle to experience our ECC RadioLab in person. Since this is an open studio, not only will you have the opportunity to observe and chat with the ECC doing a live radio experiment, you’ll also have the opportunity to meet and witness all of the other artists who are working here in a myriad of different mediums from sound to film to dance to live sculpture.
But even if you aren’t able to come to the Castle, you can still experience the open studio live by tuning in to our radio broadcast stream which will air on multiple stations during the entire 3-hour long event. Live event too early for your time zone? Don’t fret because we will be airing highlights and exclusive segments from the show on the next episode of The Sound of Plaid -- tune in as you normally would, or via podcast, or download from The Sound Of Plaid Archives.
