MINI-FORUM ... live electronica jam in the midlands (UK) ...

[WoJ]

vurt, I'm looking forward to the possibility of you joining!

ooer...
and that possibility got even more possible tonight

despite me missus goin to see christina aguilera the same night, she reckons we can get her folks to sit for the boy(darent leave him home alone, he might be a pyromaniac like his dad Lo )

just need to see about some kinda transport i guess then sort out what the hell id be doing

would be great if you could come vurt! the more the merrier.

[vurt]

received the brief, thanks carlos.

so far sems interesting and concise enough, perhaps after attending i may feel i have something to add but so far sounding coolio.

all i need now is a driver

[carlos]

all i need now is a driver

as in asio4all or ford mondeo?

I'm going to email the other performers with the guide and I'll look for anyone from Manchester way, I'm going to ask for confirmation of names by the 13th November so that we can plan the technical side of it and maybe have a few names on print.

I'll keep everyone posted, as yet the people involved are scattered across the web, different forums, Myspace accounts and local contacts, I'll try to get people to come to KVR because of the resources etc.

speak to you soon...

[vurt]

suppose i should come out and ask now...

whats the facility like for smoking?


as for gear im looking at the moment at possibly reaktor/laptop...
or maybe kaoss pad with some field recordings on minidisc and some other bits on other inputs to hopefully cover all my needs?
the idea for me is to travel as light as possible but with as much power as possible noise wise

[carlos]

will check out 'smoking policy' and pm you asap, backpack size gear sounds efficient, I like the idea of field recordings through the kaoss. I'll probably abuse FM7 et al, process a few samples and live sample that through my kaoss (12 seconds is a wonderful restriction!)

'smoking policy'...

Hi carl, just wondering if the venue/date has deffinetly been confirmed. Where is the venue exactly? and what time would i need to get there? just need to book my train ticket is all.

cheers,

WoJ

Thanks pHz I'll have a chat with Ben who's sorting the posters out, any ideas for a name to the event?

The venue was a lapdance club if that helps?

[carlos]

bitjam!!! Thats the fellow! Cheers!

[carlos]

Done a google search seems clear of any copyright, fits a1 with type of event, jamming from 24 bit right down to 4 bits! BITJAM

[carlos]

The Bitjam event will hopefully be a regular event and will feature artists performing their own solo sets as well as live improvisation. Therefore the live imrpovisation performers (as a collective) will be called Audio Congress (Bitjam presents Audio Congress).

Posters are now on their way to completion, local media will be contacted again, can all those interested contact me for details on what time to meet up etc?

[vurt]

'smoking policy'...

i guess i mean would security follow my every move or is there a secret corner somewehere i could have a wee smoke

[carlos]

What security?

The owner may have an idea! I guess it's only respectful to enquire, I'll get back to you on that!
