London based Artist and musician Anneke Kampman presents Her-Modulo, an evening event that forms the first public event of Anneke’s ongoing research into music technologies and their shaping of culture and desire.
Anneke will perform All Fidelity, a new performance featuring a performance using voice, live sampling, collage and amplified CD players.
“The soft aspirations of a synthesised female voice resonate from a Muji wall-mounted CD player in a kitchen in the Bunkyo-ku district of Tokyo, Japan, 1999. Modelled on a kitchen extractor fan and created by industrial homeware designer Naoto Fukasawa, the device was intended to trigger an instinctive or unconscious response without operating instructions....“
Combining synthesised voice and sound, All Fidelity takes apart the frequencies of a new wave-formed body, an economy of feminised sound, re-imaging a new sensorium from its collaged parts.
After the performance writer and lecturer Paul Rekret will present Future Music Infrastructures - a talk examining the relationship of ‘the home’ to recorded music. Taking Muji's wall-mounted CD player as a starting point, Paul will trace a trajectory from the idealised domesticity for which the player-piano and gramophone stood as emblems - to the frictionless mobility of Bluetooth speakers and playback technologies that have played a central role in shaping the experience of ‘place’.
To see out the evening Louis Digital (Louis Moreno) will play special selected DJ set.
Anneke Kampman is is a London-based artist and musician working at the intersections of writing, performance, music, and the moving image. Her works draw from her own experiences as a musician alongside the methods and arguments of critical theory re-staging the techniques of the cultural industries in an “immanent critique” of pop.
Recent video and performance works explore the politics and multivalent histories of popular music’s global circulation via visual media such as music-video. She completed a practice-led PhD at the School of Fine Art in 2023. Anneke was an associate artist at Open School East (2016-2017) and resident artist at Somerset House (2018-2021) with the artist collective Common Study, where they facilitated a regular research programme.
Her work has been presented at San Mei Gallery, LUX Artist Moving Image Festival, Pump House Gallery, South London Gallery, Glasgow International Festival, Jerwood Space, Somerset House, La Monnaie De Munt, Café Oto, Mayday Rooms, Chapter Arts Centre, and BBC Tectonics Festival.
Paul Rekret is Lecturer in Media Industries in the School of Media and Communication, University of Westminster. He is the author of three books: Take This Hammer: Work, Song, Crisis (Goldsmiths/MIT Press, 2024), Down With Childhood: Pop Music and the Crisis of Innocence (Repeater 2017), Derrida and Foucault: Philosophy, Politics, Polemics (Rowman & LIttlefield 2018); and editor of two volumes: George Caffentzis' Clipped Coins, Abused Words & Civil Government (Pluto Press, 2021) and Robert Linhart and the Circuitous Paths of Inquiry (Viewpoint, 2022).
His book Monopolated Light and Power is forthcoming. His writing on art, media, and culture has appeared in The Wire, Frieze, Art Monthly and he is regularly invited to programme for or speak to audiences at international cultural institutions including Camden Art Centre (London), BAK (Utrecht), CTM (Berlin) and UnionDocs (New York).
Louis Moreno (aka Louis Digital, Unspecified Enemies)is a musican, producer and DJ. Louis Moreno is also an urbanist and theorist based in London whose research examines the socio-spatial ramifications of finance capitalism.
