Cybersonica Social at Kinetica Art Fair

Cybersonica Social creates a little slice of Cybersonica - London's annual celebration of music, sound, art and technology - for a brief but enjoyable two hours this Sunday evening at the Kinetica Art Fair.

The seventh in a now somewhat irregular night, it features a select line-up of new and previously featured talent including the idiosyncratic granular textures and analogue rhythms of Threep accompanied by the minimalist visual waveforms of Vent Media; the edgy electronic grooves and live, gutsy vocal FX of VC Kristi with the evolving and surrealist imagery of Oddscene; and the old-skool electro to 8-bit freakouts to drum n' bass mentalism of Steve Nosurname with the kinetic and potent visuals of moving image artist Barry Gene Murphy.

On Sunday the 1st of March from 20:00 - 22:00 hrs at P3. Check out the Cybersonica website for all information.
