Colour
Out of Space at a Distance
International
Festival of
Experimental Sound and Art
Safe and well
or sinking further into that void of anxiety and despair - just
like every UK winter? Either way with COOS's Plague Time
Television you can now experience how lockdowns have affected
your favourite soundmakers from around the globe. All five episodes,
with almost 150 artists, are online now (see below) for further
viewing and future study. A big hug to everyone who’ve shared
their shut-in moments, and to those airing performances from our
last festival (via Live
in your Head). Colour Out of Space is back in 2021. We're
willing it. Stay well - we’ll see you there!

UNIA
LOIMUSSA + WHAT WAS MUSIC?
Two exhibitions ran throughout the festival; in ONCA we were honoured
to present Unia Loimussa (Dreams inside a Blaze) -
the first ever UK exhibition from visual artist, musician
and all round Finnish underground lynchpin Jan Anderzen.
While over in the Jubilee Library What Was Music? featured
twelve sound-collages created by local schoolchildren using samples
sent from artists around the world. Organised by Ian Murphy (Hobo
Sonn) workshops were led by Murphy and Duncan Harrison. Listen in
below to all recordings (or open in new
window). Read more from both exhibitions here
LIVE FROM
LUBBERLAND
Ash Reid & Ali Robertson were in residence at Phoenix Brighton
over the weekend with ‘In The Future
You’ll Be Able To Get All The Expensive Designer Wallpaper That
Your Heart Desires For Free: Live from Lubberland’ -
a radio series for and from the future. Working with audience members
and COOS artists, it was recorded and edited daily and broadcast each
night by Resonance Extra. Visit all three Lubberland excursions
here.
SONIC
ARTS TRAIL


The
weekend saw the first COOS daytime sonic-arts trail, featuring installations
and site specific performances in Brighton landmarks including The
Pepperpot (top) with Ian Helliwell, little known
Follys such as The Tarner Tower (above) with Alice Kemp,
and London Rd’s bustling Open Market with Ryoko Akama.
Sights and sounds from the streets, alongside Resonace FM's Free
University and Seymour Glass's Gonk Summit, will be online soon.
