Black-clad with an ominous aura created by their distorted guitar epics, burnt-out ballads and raucous mantric jams.
Jean-Luc Guionnet will be giving a talk as part of the music department’s ongoing series of colloquia.
Sean and Taku share an interest in structure, space and time. A spartan, abstract, considered and surprisingly musical set.
A chat with Rashad about the communist, conceptual methodology that informs his ground-breaking synthetic music—a form of speculative sonic fiction writing to produce hyperreal non-representational auditive experiences.
