Tuesdays Post : Live Progressive Ambient

Tuesdays Post : Live Progressive Ambient

This will be a fully immersive event with 3 composers writing integrated spatial pieces especially for this unique and state-of-the-art space hosted by Southby Productions. The technology for dissemination around the venue is designed and built by D&B Audiotechnik.

Tuesdays Post has been creating immersive events for many years, but only in the last few years has precise and user friendly technology been more broadly available.. We are absolutely delighted to have been invited to present our music in this amazing space.

This concert night is to showcase pieces that explore the capabilities of the positional sonic rig. The specific compositional tool which develops spatial themes in music – the movement of sound in space – is a musical device which is independent of rhythm, melody, harmony or timbre. Without an immersive concert space, exploring the sonic dimensions of sound in space is not possible.

Our 3 composers are:

Merkaba Macabre

Merkaba Macabre is a multimedia project by Steven McInerney, operating across musical performance, installation, audiovisual, and experimental film. McInerney’s work draws upon dichotomous energies, meditating between the sacred and profane. His cinematic work explores psychospiritual tropes and altered perception, often blurring the lines between science and fiction. His live performances utilise real-time feedback systems to exploit the audience’s awareness within time-based media; pushing the boundaries of perception and the medium itself. McInerney is the founder of Psyché Tropes, a film company and label exploring the synaesthetic intersections between sound and its visual counterpart. Other collaborative projects include: IOME, Post Coma and Flying Disks.
