As well as producing the excellent ‘Yarcade’, sound artist Stuart Bowditch also recorded a selection of performances during YARMONICS.
Whole performances can be listened to at Stuart’s Soundcloud page here.
A selection of recordings made of some of the performances at Yarmonics sonic arts festival in Great Yarmouth 2018. The performances were either outside (beach, jetty, street) or in the minster and I placed my recorder (a Marantz PMD561) somewhere in the vicinity of the musicians whilst also enjoying the performances myself.
On the 30th November Norwich gallery LOWER.GREEN will host ‘YARMONICS on tour’; an exhibition showcasing performances, installations and artworks created for and during YARMONICS.
The purpose of the event is to ‘tour’ the festival to a new audience and give existing audiences that may have missed the festival the opportunity participate in it.
Artworks and performance, including:

'Stones (And Other Objects)'.
This performance was the culmination of two half-day workshops with 10 participants, led by electronics improviser David Ross. The group collected materials from around Yarmouth before exploring electronic and acoustic sounds and techniques to create a pointillist, improvised electroacoustic performance at the Hippodrome.

''Yarcade is a collage made only from raw and processed field recordings made inside Great Yarmouth amusement arcades during the hot summer of 2018. A wide variety of holiday makers and seasonal workers generously agreed for their leisure activities to be recorded by Stuart. He also recorded David Perry the ‘Puppet Man’ and extracted MIDI data from his performance to trigger some of the sounds in Max for Live patches.''
Throughout the Saturday of YARMONICS sound artist, Phil Mill accompanied audiences around Yarmouth with his electromagnetic antenna.
This special electromagnetic receiver is designed to pick up VLF signal. As the listener walks a path, fragments of radio and unidentified transmission can be heard, almost like peering into another (noisy) dimension.
Phil recorded many of these occurrences whilst audience members were using the device, he has made an edit of some of the most interesting findings.
Please be aware that due to the signal strength, some of the audio appears very quiet, but still full of detail.
