JAPANESE & AUSTRALIAN ARTISTS CREATING NEW CULTURAL EXPERIENCES

JOLT Arts is returning to Japan to showcase a range of leading Japanese and Australian cutting edge sound and video artists.

Exciting and unique cross cultural and cross media collaborations make this one of the truly avant garde evenings of the year. Legendary Noh Singer Ryoko Aoki has created new imagining of the 14th Century Noh play Hagoromo in collaboration with The Amplified Elephants – Australia’s leading neurodiverse electronic music ensemble. The great start of Akiko Nakayama rises further as she collaborates with the Australian composer/performer James Hullick (Director of JOLT). Japanese duo Paracollider (Takashi Makino & Cal Lyall) bring their remarkable visceral sounds and vision to the people. Noise Scavengers collaborated with Australian performance artist pioneer to create interactive midi bracelets.

Jonathan Duckworth, Shigenori Mochizuki and Ross Eldridge have forged new ground as audiovisual interactivity technologists and their work appears in Hagoromo and Disruptive Critters.

Buckle up for a journey into the future of sonic and visual culture.
