Ewa Justka: New Music New Functionalities
Join electronic artist Ewa Justka and Yuri Suzuki in this salon and performance exploring new forms of instrument-making and sound practice.
What to expect
Curated by the sound designer and electronic musician Yuri Suzuki, discover the work of creative practitioners breaking new ground within music and sound design.
This two-part session includes a presentation from Yuri Suzuki on aspects of sound design engineering and electronics followed by an experiment where participants will test electronic devices to reveal hidden sounds and frequencies. After a short break, electronic acid-technoise artist, and self-taught instrument maker, Ewa Justka will discuss her unique approach to electronic instrument-making and conclude with an experimental sound performance.
Those attending should bring a small battery-powered domestic electronic device with them – i.e. a clock, a handheld whisk, a radio etc.
New Music New Functionalities is part of a wider series of performances and talks curated by the quarterly design journal Disegno to celebrate Suzuki’s Furniture Music exhibition at the Stanley Picker Gallery in Kingston upon Thames.
