Plug N Play Melbourne

Last month went so well, we’re doing it again.

“All VJs will play half an hour each, and follow that by playing half an hour of their favourite music – for the next VJ to play pixels to.

This should be fun for all with curious eyeballs~! ( and curious ears too – VJs tend to have great taste in music ; )”

It’s almost SPRING-TIME IN MELBOURNE~!!

And for the last Thursday of August – a celebratory explosion of colour with 6 VJS in 3 hours…

All VJs will play half an hour each, and follow that by playing half an hour of their favourite music – for the next VJ to play pixels to.

Zeal = 25 year-old ex-Adelaidian audio visual artist Robert Jarvis now living in Melbourne. Robert earned his jazz degree from the Elder Conservatorium in 2006 which he has been misusing ever since, creating eclectic indietronica in his bedroom studio and animated music videos about cats in space on his bedroom floor.

Tracks from his album “With the Moon Alongside Racing Us Home” and his debut EP “This is how I hear your voice” have been aired on community and national radio, featured in compilations by Cyclic Defrost and others,  he’s toured nationally and has been a feature artist on Triple J Unearthed.  His solo live show’s are a quirky and intimate affair featuring melodica solos, self oscillating delay pedals and a laptop driven by a hacked guitar hero controller.

More recently, he’s been developing a live audiovisual performance, and building his own a set of video plugins for ableton live (VIZZable).

10-11 : Jean Poole : Recent short video experiments , accompanied by a headphone jack straight into James Blake’s washing machine.
