Akaihirume and Carl Stone
Experimental, soundscape, sound art
This show is a big deal. Carl Stone and Akaihirume are big names in the experimental music world, and it is rare that they ever even perform in North America! This WECC show is one of a handful of North American dates. Are we lucky or what? Special thanks to our friends Send and Receive Festival for co-presenting this dream of a show!
Carl Stone returns to Winnipeg to present his evening length composition Re:gendo. Stone will perform live computer-based electronics with sounds distributed throughout the space, utilizing field recordings of the urban soundscape in Tokyo combined with his unique take on music from Japan as well as other parts of Asia. The music shares the immersive space with multi-channel video using specially commissioned drone footage shot over Tokyo. Featured as part of the performance will be Japanese vocalist Akaihirume.
