The creators will be in discussion with OCEAN performers The Vonnegut Collective. There will also be the premiere of two new works: ‘Vial’ by Elizabeth Ditmanson for ensemble, video and electroacoustic sound, and ‘DIIN’ by Robert Corrin for ensemble, networked laptops and electroacoustic sound.
geode is a collaborative practice encompassing multimedia installations, mixed-media performance and sound art. The Vonnegut Collective is a chamber ensemble based in Manchester, formed in 2014 by two members of the BBC Philharmonic.
Elizabeth Ditmanson is a composer, sound artist and amateur photographer who has worked with Trio Atem, Psappha and the Manchester Confucius Institute.
