Practice #38 Sid Frank
Sid Frank creates slowly evolving drones that combine electronics with field recordings of daily life in an urban setting. The drone backdrop provides a different way of hearing what might otherwise be considered harsh or distracting street sounds, revealing a hidden musicality. The simplicity of the music, the repetition, and the deliberately measured pace of change leaves space for the attentive listener to notice what may or may not be imagined, and to generate their own internal composition.
Free entry.
About Practice
Practice is an investigation of the capability of sound to induce different transcendental states of awareness and being. Through a series of noise sets, practice explores the experiential application of theories underpinning the transformational properties of sound, such as cymatics, music therapy, sound healing, brain entrainment, and binaural-beat perception.
Each session features a noise artist, who, informed by their own knowledge of sound, creates a immersive set intended to bend consciousness. listeners are encouraged to embrace a receptive, meditative attitude during sets.
We don’t mind if you’re new or old to noise or meditation.
If you’re curious to be engaged, to open yourself to new experiences and to hear some noise, then join us.
