He has been composing and performing improvised music for over 25 years, producing, performing and recording with artists such as Evan Parker, Twinkle\u00b3, Edward Barton, Clive Bell, Olaf Rupp, David Ross and Grutronic. He studied improvisation with John Stevens, saxophone with Elton Dean and Steve Lacy, action theatre improvisation with Sten Rudstrom and electroacoustic composition with David Berezan and Ricardo Climent. &#8211;\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/richard-scott.net\/\">http:\/\/richard-scott.net\/<\/a><\/p>\n<p lang=\"en-GB\" style=\"padding-left: 30px;\"><strong>Live: Erik Dower (USA)<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\">After graduating from Berklee College of Music in 1998 Erik Dower returned to California to further develop his skills working in recording studios and at music technology companies. Frustrated with traditional compositional methods, in2004 he began writing his own sequencer and audio processing software and then collaborated with DSPaudio to realize the first non-linear commercial sequencer. It has been used by notable figures in the experimental electronic scene including Daniel Miller (Mute records boss) and John Tejada (Palette recordings).\u00a0Realizing the need for more tactile interfaces, in 2008 he began designing performative modular systems and is currently exploring the role of modular synthesizers in modern culture. Electronicpresskit will be playing an experimental set on his custom performance modular serving up fresh bizza with feedback and drone toppings. &#8211;\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/electronicpresskit.bandcamp.com\/\">http:\/\/electronicpresskit.bandcamp.com\/<\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>Quakmonster workshop (solder your own theremin)(4PM)<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft\" style=\"margin-right: 20px;\" title=\"Quakmonster Circuit\" alt=\"\" src=\"http:\/\/www.koma-elektronik.com\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/10\/DSC06640-300x168.jpg\" width=\"300\" height=\"168\" \/><\/p>\n<p>As designed by KOMA&#8217;s head of production Felix Obe\u00e8 the participants will build a Qu\u00e4kmonster in the KOMA Elektronik workshop.

Participants need to bring 3 &#8211; 4hrs of time, a stuffed animal or something similar, a fitting speaker if they can find one and a soldering iron.
