Francisco Lopez & Stephen Cornford

All Around You

With regular events throughout the autumn and into winter, All Around You is a season of sound performances, installations, talks, workshops and film events, featuring artists and musicians who utilise and respond to space and surroundings.

All Around You brings together some of the most respected international practitioners of sound art, locally based sonic adventurers and a group of Bristol venues and groups, with the aim of pushing deeper sonic experimentalism and awareness of the sounds of human surroundings.  Presenting a broad range of activities and performances, the season also provides a context for discussion and learning with talks and workshops.

One of the major figures of the sound art and experimental music scene, Francisco López has developed an absolutely personal and iconoclastic sonic universe, based on a profound listening of the world. Destroying boundaries between industrial sounds and wilderness sound environments, López proposes a blind listening, freed from the imperatives of knowledge and open to sensory and spiritual expansion. Hear him discuss his practice at The Cube on 17 Sep in prelude to this live performance.

Referencing a history of tape music including both musique concrete and process music, Cornford performs SSCD_6.2, his home-built cassette delay machine assembled from discarded tape recorders, constructed in homage to obsolete technologies such as the Dynacord Space Echo.
