The inaugural 2018 Audio Foundation Performance Residency artist is Wellington based musician, musicologist, organiser, and sound artist, Daniel Beban. Daniel will spend a week in residence at the Audio Foundation from May 22, performing each night alongside an array of local and international collaborators.
This programme is inspired by similar series run by the likes of New York's legendary venue The Stone, where for up to two weeks at a time, a single artist is invited to present work in different combinations each night.
For his performance residency Daniel will present some of his longstanding bands and projects (Orchestra of Spheres, The Stinging Nettles, Microsoft Voices) alongside new improvised collaborations with colleagues such as Stefan Neville, Beth Dawson, Chris O’Connor and Paul Buckton and first time musical meetings with guitarist Kathleen Tomacruz and visiting Italian musician/composer Luciano Chessa.
Each night presents a different facet of Daniel Beban’s artistic repertoire and promises a fascinating and compelling overview of one of New Zealand’s most prolific and significant sound artists.
