This year I was fortunate enough to get intimately involved with Electric Spring 2016 and given the opportunity to run tech for the festival’s final night.

A number brilliant artists presented their work over the week, with projects ranging from audio/visual experiences to surround sound immersion and interactive installations; all of which was enabled by the University’s HISS equipment.

This week I took the opportunity to mix the amazing Jah Wobble, and got to play with the university’s new DiGiCo SD8 digital desk.

Tonight I have been involved with the setup of an 8 channel surround sound system for experimental violinist Mieko Kanno and a number of the university’s postgraduate students. An exciting display of live sounds mixed with digital audio processing, all running through the analogue Soundcraft Ghost.
