Llanrwst - Accretion Entropy @ AGORA, National Eisteddfod of Wales 10.08.10`9
Accretion Entropy @ AGORA, National Eisteddfod of Wales Llanrwst Maes
3pm 10th August.
Performing as 1 third of Accretion Entropy
Experimental electroacoustic trio consisting of Charles Gershom Spendlove, Dr Ed Wright and Rob Spaull. Through performance grounded in improvisation; a gradual accumulation of sounds is used to coalesce and transform a blank canvas from a state of maximum entropy, into structures of ordered textures and rhythms.
An eclectic mix of electric violin, modular synths, custom hardware, and digital workstations are used in a number of unorthodox ways to create an ensemble that reflects the mixed backgrounds of the performers. Sparse cinematic soundscapes to chaotic high energy percussive pieces are all represented in the performances.
