Noise & Capitalism (anthology) with editor & contributor Mattin (SP)
Mondragon Bookstore & Coffeehouse, 91 Albert St. | 5:30 – 7:30 ‘Noise’ not only
designates the no-man’s-land between electro-acoustic investigation, free
improvisation, avant-garde experiment, and sound art; more interestingly, it
refers to anomalous zones of interference between genres: between post-punk and
free jazz; between musique concrète and folk; between stochastic composition
and art brut. – Ray Brassier
Noise & Capitalism, is a tool for understanding the
situation we are living through, the way our practices and subjectivities are
determined by capitalism. It explores contemporary alienation in order to
discover whether the practices of improvisation and noise contain or can
produce emancipatory moments, and how these practices point towards social
relations, which can extend these moments. **Noise

2011 | Tue - Sat 12 PM - 5 PM “Zimoun breaks the distance
we think exists between structure and chaos. Ordered, structured, and
temporal-minded work enables the organic creation of noise by pared-down
elements that evoke a Minimalist ethos. Though the works are by definition
noise, they involve quietening in order to listen. They are gentle reminders
that when you stop to listen, you hear what you might have missed. Planned and ordered mechanisms enable minimal materials to make the
noise they happen to make. This causes us to think about what structure means
for creative production. Does creative freedom benefit from planned
organisation?” -

Benjamin’s ‘silent’ radio broadcast conjures an all-encompassing void. The
Eiffel Tower radiates the first coordinated time beacon signaling an
electro-acoustic temporal control of empire and colonial coordination. An
abstracted time suffuses daily life. Dead Air considers experiential outcomes
