for example - Moscow Laptop Orchestra (aka Cyber Orchestra or CybOrch) at one of our events - the Third Festival of Sciences of Moscow State University (2008)
Oleg Makarov. First in Russia performance of live circuit bending.
Victor Chernenko - playing with real-time sampled resonances and stochastic mathematical algorithm, using no-name self-built laptop.
Borisov Alexey - playing with destroyed guitar pedals, circuit-bent gear, small theremin and radio. Video - VJ Poloka.
Kuzin Evgeniy (aka kuzinea) - rhythmical improvisation at KGB-yard with 50 Hz, feedbacks, tape-heads and vehicle tickets, junk-punk electronic gear, piezo elements, old remote controls from VHS-players.
Vladimir Ratzkevich - circuit bent boxes live set. Video - VJ Poloka.
Sergey Kasich - "Destroy the System" performance. Demonstration of one of the techniques of an Artificial Destruction - so called "Aggressive Plugging In".
Pavel Zhagun (aka PIEZO) - self-built algorithms computer set. Using Max/Msp and Reactor. Video - VJ Poloka.
First Russian Live Interactive Forum for live performance and D.I.Y. approach in different fields of
experimental technological arts (mainly experimental electronic music, video-art, interactivity etc.). Founded by several free
composers and scientists on a base of the Theremin-Center
(www.theremin.ru) in 2008. The Theremin-Center - is the first and the oldest studio of electronic and electroacoustic music in
Russia. It is situated in Moscow State Conservatory and is an official part of it. It bares the name of Leon Theremin, who was
working at the studio, at the time it was just a laboratory of electroacoustics, and then till his last days.
LoveLiveElectronic (aka LoLiEl) community does regular live events, where artists perform experimental
electronic music and video-art often using computer algorithms, programmed by them-self, or hard-equipment, built by their
own. We also consider it good to modify any commercial soft and gear in a HACKING-paradigm with a purpose of creating
something new and unpredictable. LoLiEl also supports so-called "aesthetic of false" which core is in misusing everything,
what you can misuse. And of course we are fond of old soft-wear and old hard-wear, which is now became outside of the commercial market, as well as free-soft and linux-based developments. We insist on performing live, when AN ACTION PRODUCES EFFECT. We feel bad about using prerecorded
samples, but really appreciate REAL-TIME SAMPLING. We insist on NOT using phonogramms at all. We also produce free
work-shops on bending electronics and programming in PD, Max..MSP, CSound, etc.
We celebrate originality and pray creativity. We feel pulsating spirit of innovational revolution.
SELF-programmed, SELF-built, SELF-destroyed.
Special thanks to Jon Appleton for
good ideas of logo-design.
Spiritual thanks to Andrey Smirnov (head of Moscow Theremin Center).
Special thanks to Patricia Thompson (the doughter of Vladimir Mayakovskiy) for encouragement of the futuristic event in the
museum of Mayakovskiy.
All our events are supported by first russian "Electronic
Music" magazine.
this ". . ." means that we are allways open for contacts: loliel{the sign looking like a}ya{little black spot}ru
the next video - is a small slide-show about our live event, performed at Justo club Theatre on New Year's night 2009 together with the Justo fast Theatre actors. The audio fragment was occasionally recorded on a voice-recorder.
My first official album "Static" has being released on "Far away records" label. The experimental work was totally performed by handmade machine "RoboSynth".
На лэйбле "Far away records" вышел мой первый официальный релиз - альбом "Static". Экспериментальная работа полностью выполнена на самодельном синтезаторе "RoboSynth"
