"Saturday March 14th, LIFE, 2-4 Old St, EC1V 9AA, 9pm-2am, £4
This Saturday we are hosting a number of concerts which will be powered entirely by prototype models of the new E-MU PIPEline wireless system. The prototypes have been sent directly from the factory in Japan, where they were constructed a few days ago. Musicians will transmit to each other via wireless, and a mix will then be broadcast live to the audience, equipped with wireless packs and headphones. The venue is LIFE Bar on Old St (Nearest Tube Barbican!), which resides in the basement of an excellent Japanese Sushi restaurant.
Unboxing pictures of the PIPEline units, just taken, can be found here

In the second room of LIFE bar, which doubles up as a shop selling all manner of Japanese goodies and gizmos during the day, we are teaming up with Shook magazine to host some very special Silent Concerts. Between 9pm and 12am a number of very special guests, including experimental touch electronics specialists Oscillatorial Binnage, will be performing to audiences of 20 at a time, streaming audio direct to headphones via wireless. Formed in 2005, Oscillatorial Binnage is a London-based electroacoustic improvisation trio with a neo-primitivistic approach, composed of Fari Bradley, Toby Clarkson, Chris Weaver and Dan Wilson. They work with homemade instruments, video projection, biofeedback, just intonation, gestural interfaces and destabilized equipment responsive to touch.
Some pictures of the instruments they use can be found here
If you drop in, come and say hello, I am Benjamin and I edit the music tech section for Shook Mag, amongst other things.
Facebook event listing is here.
Cheers,
Benjamin
