RVCH + infimensions (live AV)
RVCH
‘’Pounding waves of rhythms blending into astral clouds in the horizon, in pursuance of the primordial sounds that vibrate in eternity…Translating the unseen into the language of air, the vibrations in synchronicity…Through the alchemical transmutation of elemental frequencies, a tribute to the dance of all-pervading cosmic energy…’’
RVCH is a musical expression of Tolga Çokdeğer (Toll Tres), a visual artist / musician based in London. He has been active in Istanbul’s underground music scene for the past ten years, releasing/ performing with the psychedelic rock band Pitohui and the techno duo Neonderthal. Inspired by ambient music producers such as Steve Roach, Vir Unis and deep atmospheric techno.

REALITY: Entimology
A new project by the artist duo Reality (Daniil Alexandrov and Zhenia Vasiliev) brings live video mixing, creative writing, electro-acoustic sound performance together with empathy in the context of collective intelligence on contemporary digital networks.
Entimology, a project engaged with language and swarm mentality, is an exercise of multi-modal
translation: translation of bodies into texts, texts into visions, social behaviours into symbolic forms, speech of insects into our speech and back. Which possibilities, Reality asks, the study of communication in insects, particularly those ones living socially, could bring into our understanding of connection between users in the digital domain? The duo approaches critically the idea of collective action, arguing instead that users are involved on the level of the individual, rather than collective, action frame.

THAT'S IT
About 10 years ago I started looking for ways of turning my obsessive drawing habit into a transient performative process, a process which has no goal or creative product in the end. Eventually I came across Tagtool which was back then an open source DIY software and hardware solution. It fits my needs perfectly, and I have been using it at various events and venues ever since. I draw, animate and project in real time, usually to and in response to music. Sometimes good image pops up, and that makes it worth it.
