This semi-autonomous process aims to revoke the tendency of stasis informed by the performer, often impeding the immediacy of improvised computer music - thereby maintaining a state of flux throughout the show. The Bristol Laptop Orchestra (BLO) is a collective that uses code, custom software, and digital interfaces to build improvised, intense, chaotic pieces in real time (sometimes beautiful drone soundscapes). It was born out of Bristol’s underground and experimental scene; it can be described as a high-tech jam session. David/David: A duo exploring the intersections of glitch electronics and free jazz percussion. David/David works with processed textures and live instrumentation, creating structures that are fleeting yet intense. Expect a mix of playful volatility, with acoustic and digital sounds colliding in unpredictable ways. Closing the night with BAMBI REDUX. This isn't artificial intelligence; this is real stupidity.
