Next AV Social 26 September

The AV Social returns with another magnetic program of audiovisual works for its next event scheduled at the British Film Institute. This again is a special one because The AV Social will be included in the BFI's long weekend of celebration for it's 75th anniversary.

Our lineup for this edition will feature DVJ extraordinaire Dan Tait, playing for us a newly updated version of visual IDM, initially shown at Sonar 2008. MTV + OneDotZero award winner Quayola also headlines with his latest edition of Path to Abstraction a multi-screen sound and vision piece, delivered from a single laptop. Likewise, Oli Sorenson will launch his latest DVD album Subject Zero, with an extended live remix of this work. But look out, do make sure to come early and catch the unsigned talents of 8bit artists Steve and Pikilipita, warming up with an AV set performed exclusively from games consoles. The AV Social, a social networking opportunity for London’s audiovisual community.

27 09 08: Noise of Art presents 'Deep Space Disco' ! + special live AV performance of 'Subject Zero'

As part of this year's Elefest, this Saturday sees a cracking line-up of audiovisual entertainment at the unique Roxy Bar & Screen. Featuring music from Ben Osborne, live DVJ performance from one of the world's leading VJs Oli Sorensen, plus intergalactic disco queens! And all for FREE!

Starts 8pm with Subject Zero, 9pm Deep Space Disco.

Open till 2am

A cross platform clubbing event with music from Ben Osborne (Slipped Disco / NME Radio), visuals by Overlap and Funkcutter and performance artists, including aliens, comic book characters and intergalactic disco queens. This is a mini version of a new Noise of Art production that has been specially adapted for Elefest. It features space characters and visuals made up from exclusive rare training footage of cosmonauts and early Soviet space missions, all against a backdrop of deep space disco music and lots of extraterrestrial disco dancing...

Subject Zero is a live DVJ performance project, produced to mark VJ Anyone's passage to working under his new artist name - Oli Sorenson. As well as drawing closure on the artist formerly known as Anyone, Subject Zero draws a loose narrative on the dissolution of the ego, within a playful fusion of audio and visuals. The soundtrack from Subject Zero was exclusively selected from tracks on the Multiverse label, and results in a dark and eclectic mix between minimal techno, dubstep and ambient music. Musical artists include October, Pinch, Moving Ninja and more. Oli Sorenson is currently touring the Subject Zero performance in many festivals, and has just released a full length DVD of the same name.

I'll be down sometime between 10-11pm

see you all there...
