GLI.TC/H BIRM preview: Screening part 1

GLI.TC/H has started and on Saturday November 19th it’ll be making its way to VIVID in Birmingham, UK! The full programme is available here, and as a PDF. Over the week I’ll be providing a bitesized overview of the upcoming events.

Screening: Jeff Donaldson – Pin 1/12 effect

Bio

Jeff Donaldson is a multimedia artist, guitarist and composer of electronic and acoustic sound. An active member internationally in micromusic as the audio/visual project Notendo, solo work and collaborations as Odea Duo Vii, HD and Wzt Hearts, JeffÕs work encompasses a broad spectrum of audio/visual composition and improvisation. In 2001, with the intent to create animation entirely with his own hardware modifications, Jeff began creatively short-circuiting NES consoles. There is no new code involved, only raw, machine logic. This work has led to international recognition in new media art and has inspired people world-wide to pursue similar expressions.

Screening: Ben Baker-Smith and Evan Kühl (Vaudeo Signal) – Unsound

Bio

The creation of Ben Baker-Smith and Evan KŸhl, Vaudeo Signal explores synaesthetic experiences through the rudimentary interconnectivity of sound and light. Analog signals passing through complex, interconnected networks of archaic audio and video hardware result in complex visual and auditory feedback. The system incites change through the manipulation of its inherent noise. Ben and Evan have been performing Vaudeo Signal since their debut at the 2010 Gli.tc/h festival. For 2011 They are excited to have the opportunity to make an appearance at both the Chicago and Amsterdam Gli.tc/h events.
