Colin Black - Sonophobia (version 3)
Sonophobia explores the impact of field recordings, synthesized sounds, sonically animated physical objects and media elements collected during the performance, as constituents of a sometimes distraught soundworld that conceptually reflects our increasing levels of engagement with a fracturing media landscape.

"Your piece for alpha waves was exceptionally good. Insightful, clever, provocative, beautifully structured and paced and very witty. I was subjected to an act of sublimated murder and I loved it. … More please!” - Deborah Robinson (Sydney)

Antez - The Continuum
After 6 years to practice this solo performance The Continuum the sound challenge of the beginning progressed toward an conceptual sound process using the circumambulation. 3 essential elements work in "correlation" (relation and dependence):
- The architecture volume and his resonance, the atmospherique space condition
- The quality of leveling of the floor and his nature
- The specific audience presence

My Continuums have unusual sonic textures, they escape traditional registers. They test the limits of our perception: from infra to ultrasonic, by playing phase shifts. They insert themselves into the intimacy of sound matter, through micro sounds, and we are presented with an audio saturation by noise density. The flow of these sounds evokes both restraint and excess, immersion and timelessness. - Antez

Antez is a sound sculptor who explores the sound and the matter by interviewing the physical perception of sound, his relation with the space and the kingdom. He is convinced that the capability of sonore experimentation of acoustic instruments are without limitl. He call his instruments a device, he diverts the objects of their use.
