Nicholas Bullen will stage the new performance piece ‘I Am Here: Where Are You?’ as part of the event ‘NOISE + NOSTALGIA – A First Response Salon‘ at Vivid Projects, Birmingham on Thursday 12 May 2016.
Nicholas Bullen will present I Am Here: Where Are You?, a performance piece for voice, fixed media sound and electronic processing.
Working from a composed text, the artist will exercise extended techniques for voice and involuntary vocal utterances within a network of fixed media sound (composed of recordings of the artist’s voice, acoustic instrumentation and field recordings) to explore re-presentation and disruption in the act of performance as potential strategies for critique of the nostalgic impulse.
The piece will also include a screening of a section of the film ‘The Inverse Heliograph’.
