Electric Umbrella #13

Never mind the number 13: we are SO lucky to be hosting some of the best artists from the Netherlands Coding Live Community, to join energies with top-notch acoustic musicians. Remember: improvisation in music is a state of mind and has nothing to do with the type of instrument you play. It is a radical approach towards musical structure and human communication. All you need is an open mind, curiosity for mind-altering encounters, but also the discipline needed to make sense of unpredictable processes in group playing. As a visitor, all you need to do is leave your expectations at the door.

This Live Coding Special is curated by eerie_ear, aka sound designer and digital artist Sebastian Pappalardo.
He is known for his virtuosity producing textures and patterns with Supercollider. Pappalardo: "All systems can be pushed to a limit. On the fringes of those limits exist dimensions of beauty and darkness. A universe to be explored with the heart and the mind."
