PRESENTATION AND Q+A: Robin Fox
-------------------------------

Robin Fox is a Melbourne based sound artist
currently working with live digital media in
improvised, composed and collaborative settings.
He has submitted a PhD in composition, at Monash
University focussing on the development of
multi-channel performance ecologies and the design
of interactive electro-acoustic situations that
explore the dynamic between performer, space and
computer.

He also creates audio-visual works for the cathode
ray oscilloscope which have been released on the
dvd  =91backscatter=92 (synaesthesia records). The DVD
has recently screened at the Rotterdam
International Film Festival and the Mittwoschule
in Berlin and live audiovisual performances have
taken place across Europe in 2004, at the Netmage
festival, Bologna, the Wien Modern festival,
Vienna and the Transacoustic festival, Auckland in
2005. This work, in constant development, is
currently being realised with a high-powered,
audio controlled laser system.

He has performed with some of the world=92s leading
improvisers including Jon Rose, Tony Buck, Clayton
Thomas (album Substation released by Room40
records 2005), Erkki Veltheim, Natasha Anderson
and Sean Baxter among many others and has an
ongoing collaborative duo with composer/performer
Anthony Pateras. This duo is documented on
Coagulate released through synaesthesia in 2003
and Flux Compendium released on eMego in 2006. He
is also a member of Beta-erko, a quartet recently
released on Berlin based Quecksilber label.

Fox is a regular performer and speaker at
Festivals around Australia (What is Music, Liquid
Architecture, Electrofringe, SOOB, NowNOW, Big Day
Out) and performs regularly across Europe.

All releases available through Synaesthesia:
