More Reconstructions in Brass
This is what you might have heard if you happened to be walking your dog in Barrow Park last Sunday… Noise Club performing a 2hr set as part of the FON AIR series for the Park bandstand.
Reconstructions in Brass by Noise Club
Established in 2003, Noise Club is a sound art group based in Liverpool and Edinburgh. Straddling the divide between stage performance and interactive intervention, the group creates dynamic soundscapes using homemade electronics, specially-constructed sonic sculptures, found objects, toys, plants, and even smells.
For this commission from Octopus, they have created a new work that mixes interactive installation and performance piece. The work explores the creative possibilities of brass instruments refashioned to new purposes, bent, twisted, and reconstructed in ways that they were never meant to function: from a sawn-off trombone to a circuit-bent tuba.
