Presented by the Sonic Circuits International Electronic Music Festival, Leonardo Electronic Almanac, American Composers Forum and the Walker Art Center, a commission of the Jerome Foundation 
       Friday, November 3, 8-11 pm CST

TELEMUSIC #1
Networked Live Performance
With Telemusic #1, the demarcation between physical and virtual space, between on-line and local proximity, between the self and the network, converges and blurs into a shared, participatory experience through sound and our attention to its spatial and transformational qualities.
There is a long history of the distribution of sound in space through a variety of orchestrational and electronic techniques. Here, the source for the distribution of sound is the live presence and interaction with the network, communications technologies that have brought about the dissolution of temporal and geographic boundaries since the invention of the telegraph.
In Telemusic #1, superimposed on the hyper-dramatic telematic stage are statements concerning the network and its potential for social and aesthetic transformation as voiced by an Artist-Evangelist, and challenged by an Artist-Antagonist. The on-line and on-site audience in turn collectively confront and celebrate this assumption by forming their own identities such as the Idealist, the Cynic, the Lurker, the Capitalist, and the Anarchist. Together they join as an ensemble of disparate voices brought together by collapsed geographies and fractured ideologies concerning the impact of telematics on the human condition.
You can participate in the performance of Telemusic #1 by accessing the on-line performance site: http://www.telemusic.org during the evening of the performance on Friday, November 3, beginning at 8:00 PM CST. Information will be available at the telemusic.org site beginning Monday, October 30th.
Telemusic #1 is a collaborative performance work by Randall Packer and Steve Bradley, along with John Young (Network Design), Gregory Kuhn (Sound Design), Christopher Styles (Web Design), Jorge Castro (Web Design), Andrew Bruntel (Web/Flash Design), Geoff Janjua (Software Design) and Jason Corso (Software Design).
