Bent Frequency presents CONCUSSION at the Atlanta Contemporary Art
Center on Saturday June 5th, 3 - 7pm, at the Atlanta Contemporary Art
Center. Admission will be $10.

 

CONCUSSION  will mark the conclusion of Bent Frequency's
enthusiastically lauded inaugural season. Dubbed by the Atlanta
Journal-Constitution as "...a suddenly indispensable part of Atlanta's
music scene" (05/14/03), Bent Frequency presents CONCUSSION, a daylong
celebration of creation through the destruction of a contact-mic-riddled
car by sledgehammers, baseball bats and other implements. The demolition
itself will be carried out by those in attendance, who will be
encouraged to step up and play the 2-ton vehicle as a percussion
instrument. These attacks will be amplified, recorded, processed, and
played back live as an interactive musical performance. Recordings of
the destruction will also serve as the basis for a future composition by
Bent Frequency member Nickitas J Demos.

 

Throughout the event, Bent Frequency will choreograph Atlanta-area
musicians from all over the musical map (improvisers, classical
musicians, electronic composers, etc.), as well as visual artists
(videographers, welders, etc.) to react, in real-time, to both the bangs
and clangs of the destruction and to the music that will be going on all
around them. Although the event will revolve around the destruction of
an unsuspecting auto, the final product will be a 3+ hour spontaneous
composition of creative collaboration between Atlanta's various,
fragmented art/music/technology communities.
