Kinetica Performance Event: Village Underground

Kinetica Museum, the producers of the annual Kinetica Art Fair, present a series of spectacular kinetic sound performances at Village Underground in Shoreditch, London.

The performances feature new work by Ray Lee, and Stuart Warren-Hill / Ivan Black, and have been uniquely designed to suit the vast interior of the Victorian warehouse at Village Underground.

Ray Lee is best known for his international hit Siren, and has been producing innovative sound art performances and installations for the past 25 years. He creates spinning, whirling, and pendulous sound installations that explore the invisible forces around us. This performance will be a unique combination of his new larger than life “Sirens” in conjunction with two enormous theremins played by giant robots that are controlled by the artist.

Stuart Warren-Hill and Ivan Black will present a new Holographic kinetic experience using the unique skills of these two ground-breaking artists. AV pioneer and innovator Stuart Warren Hill (Holotronica / Hexstatic) combines live electronic music with realtime visual synthesis delivered using the latest Holographic and 3D technologies. Ivan Black creates complex kinetic sculptures with physical forms that expand and contract like fractals stretching from the infinitesimal to the infinite. Stuart and Ivan have together produced a new ambient, evolving and captivating performance that is viewed using a combination of stereoscopic glasses and a giant Hologauze screen, to create an effect that is both holographic and immersive.

Kinetica artists will also be installing work inside Village Underground, including a new site-specific installation by David Ogle, whose sculptural work aims to take the fundamental properties of drawing and transfer it into new spatial situations. Physical space is intersected by line and form as if a virtual object is dragged into a physical space.
