OPENSIGNAL is a collective of artists based in Providence RI concerned with the state of gender + race in experimental electronic-based sound and art practices. We host technical skillshares, critical discussions, and events featuring artists pushing the boundaries of thought and practice in electronic performance.
OPENSIGNAL compilation records are now available – limited to 100 copies.
There are 8 artists on this coke-clear 12″ vinyl record: Asha Tamirisa, Wilted Woman (cc Eel), Caroline Park, Blevin Blectum, Claire Kwong, Bridget Feral, Lucy Lewis, Akiko Hatakeyama.
It occurred to me that not everyone is on Facebook and often there are interesting news items that come up on the Feminatronic Connect Facebook page that not everyone can see. So I thought that I would have the occasional posts that grouped together some of these items and hopefully bring them to a wider audience.
This post is a little longer than usual due to being occupied with my other life but I think it is a varied and interesting set of articles.
Organized by Molly Smith in collaboration with The Kitchen, Women’s Synth Workshop is the first event in a continuing series focused on inspiring women to learn about the technical aspects and ideas behind modular synthesis and experimental electronic music. Led by various prominent wom…en in the field—including Alice Cohen, Rose Kallal, Delia Gonzalez, Lori Napoleon, Abby Echiverri, and Liz Wendelbo—the event will feature daytime discussions, lectures, and interactive demonstrations before transitioning to performances. Floor model synthesizers will be provided by the Williamsburg synth shop Control. All visitors welcome regardless of gender.
Created in 1971, The Kitchen is among the oldest non-profits in the country, whose legacy in electronic and experimental music is especially strong. Among composers and performers who presented some of their earliest and seminal works here early are Maryanne Amacher, Laurie Anderson, David Behrman, Harold Budd, Philip Glass, Pauline Oliveros, and Steve Reich. Today the organization’s board features such composers as Bryce Dessner and Nico Muhly.
