Sonic Rituals at Cakey Muto

 

Last Monday, I took part in a live performance in East London entitled Sonic Rituals. The event, the first of many to come, was an improvisation night with five musicians playing experimental electronic sounds.

 

I was asked to come in and provide the visuals. I made my drawings on the spot allowing myself to be directly affected by the music and then draw what I felt.

 
What you see here are the fruits of these experiments in front of an audience. I like doing these because it feels direct, unmediated, and utterly liberating to try my hand at live experimental performance as a change from illustration. And as a complement to the more commercial pursuits.
