Jon Rose – solo tenor violin and interactive K-Bow
Since 1987 Jon Rose has pioneered the exploration of interactive electronics through a series of violin bow powered MIDI compositions.
Now utilising the latest in violin bow technology, surround sound, and media, he puts his virtuosic violin technique to the test in a new series of challenging interactive environments. Central to this performance is the use of the new fibre carbon K-bow fitted with accelerometers, an antenna and emitter that gives precise positional information, a force sensing resistor that measures bow hair pressure, a bow grip sensor, and bow gesture recognition software – all sent wirelessly via Bluetooth to computer.
PLEASE NOTE, VERY LIMITED PLACES AVAILABLE, AND ENTRY IS STRICTLY BY INVITATION ONLY !!
FOR INVITATION AND VENUE DETAILS, PLEASE EMAIL nshimmin AS SOON AS POSSIBLE.
As with every Home Concert evening, the performance will be followed by an informal screening of a short experimental film. For this first event, Jem Cohen’s LOST BOOK FOUND (1996, 37 minutes) will be shown.
