The MIUC's 15th birthday celebrations kick off this Tuesday with five
suitably diverse groupings - traversing the inaudible to the deafening,
the organic to the processed, the tonal to the textural - all the while
celebrating the sheer joy that is improvised music! A tip of the hat
to MIUC's free jazz roots with the old-and-new-garde grouping of Ren Walters, James Mclean, Scott McConnachie, Brett Evans and Christopher Young kicks off proceedings; with the speaker-shredding aural violence that is Death By Cones quickly following to ensure you know for sure it's 2013. Two of the most beautiful extended voices in Melbourne, Carolyn Connors and Emma Albury, as well as two of the most terrifyingly grimm extended voices in Melbourne, Emma Albury and the entity known as Voidhanger, team up with the terrifyingly beautiful guitar of Alex Garsden for a cult collaboration of the most brutal/beautiful/brutiful kind. Bum Creek and Wife
revive their awesomely confusing and confusingly awesome battle
royale/collaboration for those unfortunate enough to have missed it at
MIUC in early 2012. Finally, renowned French turntablist and 'musical
travel agent' Philippe Petit goes head to head with Canberran guitarist Shoeb Ahmad
for a world-class set of improv that should prove to be as deep, dark
and immense as the Indian Ocean that usually separates the two.
