Fort Process Festival
22 September
Newhaven
Fort Process is a one day sound art and music event that utilises the extraordinary resonant spaces of Newhaven Fort. This third edition of the festival will feature performances, installations, talks, workshops and live art.
The line up includes; Rhys Chatham, AJA, Grischa Lichtenberger, KYOKA, Testsuya Umeda, Rie Nakajima, the Automatic Writing Circle and many more.
Thomas Gardner will be performing Fortress for 3 musicians, with the Automatic Writing Circle (AWC). The work will be played on a ‘Ouija instrument’ – that utilises the shadows of the performers hands to trigger field recordings, control sound synthesis, and re-process the performances of the acoustic musicians. This in turn acts to mediate between the world created by the score and the world created by the Fort.
