AMPERSAND & NGUYEN TRI MAI
London based improvisers of industrial ambient noise, Ampersand are an
improvisational sound ensemble who have performed across Europe over
the last nine years. They produce an experience of sound to envelop
the audience in the act of the moment and the art of the moment. This
uniquely pan-generational group utilises found objects, engineered
metal, deconstructed traditional instruments and audio toys. Ampersand
performances are always improvised, they arise thus from the moment,
the place, the atmosphere, the occurrences of that day. The sound, and
the experience of that sound, are imposed on all the senses, to share
with the audience a charged and superlayered emotional state.
Ampersand are Brian Bushell, Paul Wells, Joseph Oldfield and Stephen
Oldfield. Nguyen Tri Mai is a Franco Vietnamese dance artist. For the
last 20 years, she has drawn her inspiration from the waters, back and
fro between Brittany coasts, salt marshes and the river, pools and
canals of the East End of London. Mixing her Butoh dancing spirit with
her passion for improvising with live music, Mai loves to express her
intense movements in the moment, bring light to a space with her
explosiveness. Mai has collaborated with musicians, film makers and
photographers and specializes in site- specific and outdoor
performances.

- MICHAEL CLOUGH / JONNY MARTIN
A new duo. Clough is ex bassplayer of
experimental/prog/kraut/space/improv-rock band Rancid Poultry, also
bothering mini-disc players in sound-exploring trio Klunk, and now
producing analogue stretched-acoustics (mainly) under own name. Martin
works as a bass player, and in drone/noise as laughingstock101. He
asks: can dream-like states be induced, a place be created where
reality and time are held in suspension?

- HARMERGEDDON
Harmergeddon = Nathan + Fae Harmer || audio/visual/performance art
duo.
Their improvisations focus on the serendipitous, working with live
electronics, obsolete consumer electronic devices and the drifting
periphery. Their work resounds around atmospheric and meditative
soundscapes, forming kinetic pulses, drifting textures and undulating
drones paired with manipulated visuals and performance. In November
2014 they released their debut EP, 'Both Sides of the
Conversation' alongside Warren Schoenbright and Charles Hayward in
an abandoned HMV near Leadenhall Market. This was done in association
with Platform-7's Waste.Agency project. The EP is available as a
limited edition audio cassette and digital download.
