What does Singleton sound like? Part of Singleton’s Living Laneways project, Singleton Sounds Like... is a sound installation artwork that will transform Tre Bella lane into a playful sound-filled space, using your field recordings from Singleton.

Presented by Singleton Council and FASTLab with Nicole Carroll and Jon Drummond. A Collaboration between Singleton Council, FASTLab, and The University of Newcastle. Proudly funded by NSW Government.

THE WIRED LAB is an artist led organisation evolving interdisciplinary art practices in rural Australia. We create opportunities for the research, production and presentation of projects that connect international and local artists with communities in new ways. Our curated programs and projects involve artists working from a regional context whilst producing outcomes of local and global relevance. Our activities range from skills development for young people, seniors, emerging and mid career artists, to the creation, presentation, publication and promotion of new works and major live arts projects.

A Sydney-based duo formed in late 2012, Covalent is composer-guitarist Zane Banks and saxophonist-composer-technologist Ben Carey. 

Ranging from the fringe of contemporary classical, through to free improvisation, drone, noise and interactive electro-acoustics, Covalent use digital technology to both reveal and obfuscate the inherent qualities of their instrumental resources. 

The Australian Art Orchestra has built an unparalleled reputation over nearly twenty years for the breadth and quality of its output. Initially conceived as a contemporary jazz orchestra the group was soon recognised as a serious commissioner and interpreter of new notated works. It also developed a reputation for cross-cultural collaborations that were more ambitious than anything seen in Australian music previously and it delved into hybrid forms well before the terminology for such approaches became commonplace. 

The AAO’s work constantly seeks to stretch genres and break down the barriers separating disciplines, forms and cultures. It explores the interstices between the avant-garde and the traditional, between art and popular music, between electronic and acoustic approaches, and creates works that traverse the continuum between improvised and notated forms.

In January 2013, the AAO entered a new period of artistic leadership under the guidance of Artistic Director, Peter Knight. Knight is an internationally acclaimed composer, trumpeter and sound artist who has toured extensively throughout Europe, North America, Asia and Australia, garnering wide acclaim for an eclectic approach that integrates jazz, world music, and experimental traditions.

With its multi-faceted programming initiatives, the AAO fosters and supports a strong and vibrant local contemporary music scene drawing inspiration from Australia’s cultural diversity. Central to this is an ongoing dedication to nurturing and deepening its dialogues with Australian indigenous cultures as well as maintaining strong connections with artistic collaborators in India, Korea, China and Indonesia. The Orchestra has a record of commitment to the notion of a future in which truly new music that integrates Asian and Western influences is part of the cultural fabric of our region.

The Australian Art Orchestra regularly tours both locally and internationally with recent cities including Paris, London, Brisbane and Chennai.  It has won numerous awards for its work including two Australian Jazz Bell awards, a 2010 Sidney Myer Performing Arts Awards (Group Award), the H C Coombs Creative Arts Fellowship (2010), a Helpmann Award (2004), and a 2009 Classical Music award for ‘Outstanding Contribution to Australian Music in a Regional Area’.


Triangulate is a collective of three emerging new media artists and composers, who work both individually and collaboratively to create experimental electro-acoustic works which explore the qualities of sound, interactivity and immersion.

Triangulate are:- Karin Senff, Andrew Bluff and Sarah-Leith Izzard.

KARIN SENFF
Graduating from the University of Technology Sydney with a Bachelor of Sound and Music Design in 2013, Karin has complemented her studies with twelve years experience as a production professional in the theatre and live sound industry and time writing and performing with Sydney metal band One Dead Madam.

Inspired by soundscape ecology, bioacoustics and spatial audio practices, her previous work has involved using correlated microphone techniques to create immersive multichannel surround sound electroacoustic compositions and sonifying three-dimensional boidal-flocking simulations to trace the beauty of naturally occurring patterns.

Karin also has a strong interest in interactive design, incorporating Max MSP, Arduino and electronic circuit design in a range of projects; creating a custom Midi controller, an autonomous art display using muscle wire (Nitinol), circuit bending to produce sound and light sensitive ‘insects’ and developing a sound-responsive ferrofluid installation controlled by electromagnets.

ANDREW BLUFF rollerchimp
Rollerchimp (aka Andrew Bluff) is an emerging new media artist with 15 years of software development experience in the creative media industries. Recently completing a Bachelor in Sound and Music Design, Andrew pushes the boundaries of creative and interactive technologies to explore new sonic territories and performance modalities. 

Including interactive theatre, mobile computing, concatenative synthesis and new music instrument design – his work simultaneously employs technology as a compositional tool, instrument and performer while examining the intersection between order and chaos.

Recent collaborations include developing interactive iPad apps for Chicks on Speed's latest exhibition/extravaganza at Artspace in Sydney, and providing hands on technical know-how for Stalker Theatre's performance 'Encoded'.

SARAH-LEITH IZZARD
After graduating from the Elam School of Fine Art at the University of Auckland in 1995, Sarah-Leith Izzard relocated to London where she worked in the creative industry for 8 years. Sarah-Leith is now based in Sydney, and has recently completed the Bachelor of Sound and Music Design at the University of Technology Sydney.

Her work explores composition, spatialization and interactivity in a way which both challenges and extends perceptions of ‘reality’.
