About The Artist:

Sima Kim

Sima Kim was born in South Korea and grew up in Europe. He started studying music at 18 years-old and did a degree in musicology after being influenced by western classical and contemporary music. After visiting Germany and India, he started composing music and has had his music released on several labels - Rural Colours(UK), Twisted Tree Line (UK), Cathedral Transmissions (UK), Stuk Label(JP), and Twice Removed Records (AU). His work has also appeared on some compilations, such as future sequence, mu-nest and mizukage records. His main interest is on the sounds, notes and silences within a state of mindfulness.

La'bridge

La’Bridge Music Project was born in Canton and becomes more mature in Hong Kong.

The music of La’bridge cannot be simply categorized as typical technos or instrumentals. Its unique performance unites these two territories with subtle and psychedelic visual effect.

Here is La’bridge, a voyage of the musical imagination of a Chinese girl.

Yellow Crystal

An experimental guitar and electronics duo formed by Sherman and Heivard.

Sherman plays electric guitar and effect pedals. His debut solo work “Politely We Grow Old” was released by Lona Records in 2006.

Heivard is a musician / sound artist based in Hong Kong. An experimentalist who shapes Ambient, Glitch, IDM and other sonic arts into unpredictable forms. His works have been released by Fwonk*, Inside│Outside and other net labels under creative commons licenses.

adeō

adeō happened like an accident... but it goes like a coincidence... everything came into play without acknowledging too much... a matter of sound and the amount of air that pushes through the speakers... "to there" we hailed ... and here comes adeō.

adeō consists Alok (A Roller Control, 31G), Sin:Ned (No One Pulse, After Doom), e:ch (Forget the G) and oetzi.p (31G, A Poison Tree). Raging low ends turn a dull room into a vibrating object, where the guitars splice ... while the air get sliced.

6.29 Kill The Silence Festival @ LMA Macao


 



Kill The Silence Festival

破殺死寂。這是個必須的實行的計劃。徹底地。

有這樣的必要,與死寂對決。我所指,是我們之間的死寂。

所以我們以聲音來破殺死寂。我們選擇的,是衆聲喧嘩的破殺:從最甜美的搖滾、尖端電音以至最極端的實驗噪音(對!我們從不相信界線與分類!)。兩個舞臺,十八個澳、港、日演出單位,十二小時的馬拉松式破殺,還有實時的聲影互動及不停站的獨立短片放送(對!我們是瘋狂的!)。

這一切都將發生在系統以外。因為死寂來自系統,我們必須殺之於系統以外。

你要付的代價,由你作主!(所有聲音,都必須由聽聲者來完成!)

你的選擇:在系統之內継續死寂,或,在系統以外,破。殺。死。寂。

We have to Kill The Silence. We have no other option. Nothing in between.

The dead space of silence, between us.

2 stages!! 18 performing units from Macao, Hong Kong & Japan!! 12 hours of non-stop killing!!

All these insanity will be happening outside the system. The silence comes from the system, and we can only kill it, outside the system.

You Pay : What You Want!!

Your options: Stay inside the system to be rotten by silence, or jail break and Kill The Silence!!

數位電子音樂的世界對你來說是否遙不可及?又是否真的很難才可以製作出一張唱片呢?由香港資深實驗數位電音達人黃仲輝為你一一解答。

黃仲輝是以Sin:Ned名義創作的即興實驗及噪音演奏家,前樂評人,同時亦是No One Pulse、After Doom等樂團的核心成員。他是香港實驗音樂廠牌Re-Records的創辦人之一及現任聲音藝術團體「聲音掏腰包」的顧問之一。

亂章取異。零點壹陸: 黑狼暗夜行路那卡西

 
 
RE-RECORDS & CIA PRESENTS
亂章取異。零點壹陸: 黑狼暗夜行路那卡西


《暗夜行路》是日本「小說之神」志賀直哉 (1883-1971) 唯一的長篇小說,前後篇發表相隔十五年。作為小說家的投影,主角獨自走在暗夜中的山路上,自然的景色感動了他、安撫了他。「暗夜行路」那卡西呈現出來的心境,迥異於同名小說主角離奇的家世背景與始亂終棄的婚姻生活,剩下的只有一個人在自然中不斷前進。把一個人丟進大自然裏,他必須判斷前面的路要怎麼走;把一個「零餘者」丟進大自然,如果要尋求抒發心情,固然可取,但是尋短不成,必將心生恐懼,想早點離開這個鬼地方。黑狼暗夜行路那卡西的假想故事背景,正是富士山腳的「青木之原」樹海,所謂陸上的百慕達三角洲。黑狼的暗夜行路越走越暗,一路上看見各種如地獄遊記般的景象,足以使人忘記疲憊的身心與泥濘不堪的衣服,究竟何者是幻?何者是真?

ABOUT CULTURE INDUSTRIES ASSOCIATION (CIA)
Through our regular programs of concerts, art exhibitions, film screenings, seminars and workshops, it is our hope to bring to you not what have we seen already, but rather how we perceived these ideas, their contexts, and how these seemingly abstract concepts can affect and relate to our everyday lives. To prompt changes, renew our senses and debase our previously fixated point of views, this is the only way to a future – any future away from here. According to Plato, we live chained inside a dark cave; all we can see is the back wall and the shadows that move there. Carl Jung called this his shadow work. That what we in fact seeing are aspects of ourselves that fall over one another. Shadows. Projections. Our associations - of the culture industries.
