Carving A Void

| Sound Installation |

Summoning the primal energy of rock music’s “wall of noise”, George Chua tap into the influences of his teenage years listening to bands like Jesus and Mary Chain, My Bloody Valentine and Velvet Underground for his latest sound installation work: Teenage Ancient. Stripping bare the embellishment of rock music of its performance to present the core of its psychogeography in the form of an experientially immersive sound art. To present a “new wave” that is primal and ancient yet psychedelic and full of audio colours and tones. The secret history of rock and roll lies in the drone.

Silent Agreement II consists of two nights of music performances on laptop computers by Li-Chuan Chong and George Chua. There will be two solo sets and one duet improvisation set for each night.

Silent Agreement is a series of concert presented by George Chua with The Substation Arts Centre as a platform for presenting sound art performances for small audiences with a small selection of artists for each concert. The focus of this concert series is on the unique practice of each individual artist with the materiality of sound and their dedication to the form as an expansive and uncompromising approach to the experience of listening.
