9:00 . karmafarm with visuals by Nodefilms . Returning from
Hamilton, Steven Sauvé finally brings his karmafarm ambient-
systems project back to the PiNG for another fine evening of
minimal yet cinematic soundscapes. Although Steven has
regularly appeared with Geek Weekend and at drone and loop
nights since, this will be the first karmafarm set at the PiNG in
nearly a decade. Picking up where they left off a decade ago,
Calvin Grant of Nodefilms will once again be providing
Steven with luscious and striking visuals.

10.00 . Hybrid Frequency with General Chaos Visuals .
Hybrid Frequency seeks to find that connection between the logic
and non logic sounds by experimenting with different sources,
mostly natural and organic. Including Latin-American folk
instruments such as “quenas” and “ocarinas” among others to
give color and texture to the subtle soundscapes that overlay the
noisy walls made by many different tools such as synthesizers,
made electronic devices, computer software, effect pedals and
field recordings. Sometimes harsh and sometimes drone,
ambient or sometimes experimental, Hybrid Frequency
expresses the anxiety of the artist in search and exploration
of the dualities of life and the struggle of human beings to survive.
Live performances include not only noise, but some experimentation
and improvisation, performance and some audience interaction.
It is always the new, the unknown, the unexplainable and finally …
a surprise outcome.

. Thanks to Jeff Howard, we'll have the PiNG STREAM flowing on
