✦ MERYLL AMPE ~ Experimental electroacoustic
A sculptor by training, Méryll Ampe is a sound artist and composer who weaves connections between matter and vibration. They conceive of sound as a medium shaped in real time using synthesizers, modular systems and drum machines, generating raw, cutting materials that they dissect, refine and arrange into compositions rooted in musique concrète and noise improvisation.
They have performed at various venues and festivals in France and internationally, including Instants Chavirés, Présences Électroniques, Palais de Tokyo, LUFF, AURAL and Cave 12, and regularly collaborate with artists, choreographers and video artists. Their compositions are released by the labels CROUX, Misanthropic Agenda and Tsuku Boshi Records. @meryll_ampe
✦ TURNER WILLIAMS Jr.: Shahi baaja + FX improvisation
Turner Williams Jr. plays the shahi baaja, an electrified string instrument in the zither family, whose strings are modulated with typewriter keys. Invented in Japan, developed in India and sold second-hand in Alabama, this instrument is a transcultural mutation, fusing Asian, European and American roots with modern mechanical interventions. Turner explores and intertwines these roots through a raw, embodied practice that brings together the physical and the narrative through improvisation. His work reflects hybridity through an uninhibited, intuitive practice that is as haptic and cybernetic as it is frenetic and syncretic. He has performed at European festivals such as Le Guess Who? in Utrecht, the Kraak festival in Antwerp, Improtech in Uzeste, as well as in Tokyo and Paris, and regularly collaborates with the European ERC REACH project at IRCAM. He has given concerts and undertaken residencies at all four national centers for musical creation in France (IRCAM - CENTRE POMPIDOU, GMEM, GRAME, ATHÉNOR CNCM). @turndady
