Get It Louder

This weekend is the Beijing edition of the Get It Louder Exhibition, featuring artists and designers from around the world. Of interest for us is the Sound Art Performance, featuring Sun Lei (aka 718), Wang Changcun, Li Jianhong, and Fu Yu and Jia Haiqing (together known as 8gg).

Regular readers already know Sun Lei/718; the electronics wiz played at the Dashanzi Art Festival, and has released two albums already this year. Li Jianhong was also at DIAF - the Hangzhou resident worked up a dense music incorporating, among other sources, a TV with a contact microphone over the static. The others are new to me - Wang Changchun, from Harbin, will have a CD out on Belgium label Sub Rosa, and 8gg are a audio/visual duo working in "multimedia art, web art, interactive art, visual/music installation, interactive music, aleatory music, experiment (sic) theater." Aleatory! Yeah!

The show is a bit untraditional: it's a free event, but tickets must be reserved in advance.

Please send your Name, Gender, Age, ID number, Occupation, E-mail, and which events (presentation or/and sound performance) you want to attend and why to getitlouder@163.com.

Deadline: June 9

We will announce the list on June 10 at our website.

Sounds a bit strange to me, but they've reserved a place for me, so why not?

Get it Louder: Sound Art Performance. Tango Club (near the South Gate of Ditan Park), Sunday (2005-06-12), 2:30pm-5:00pm.
