Audio Foundation presents an evening of experimental music, dance and audiovisuals from Australia, France & Wellington featuring:
Jostyn Myburgh & Daisy Sanders (Perth, Australia)
Anthony Pillette (France)
Jonny Marks (Wellington)
Josten Myburgh and Daisy Sanders have been collaborating on various productions since 2018, including large-scale durational improvisations with ensembles of musicians and dancers, and patient creative developments towards large-scale works for theatrical settings.
Their duo collaboration is the rawest expression of their shared interest in deep presence in the moment through improvisation, with great comfort in silence and rest, but no fear of reaching more intense (or silly) emotional registers.

Daisy Sanders (Aus)
Daisy Sanders is a Perth-based independent artist, a graduate of WAAPA (2013 BA Dance, 2017 First Class Honours) and a proud company member of Sensorium Theatre. She creates, performs and produces immersive choreographic works (Status Room 2014, PACES 2015, Choice Velocity 2016, A Resting Mess 2017-23) and is a rigorous, playful artist working across a variety of cities and contexts.

Daisy’s lived experience of illness (Endometriosis and Chronic Fatigue Syndrome 2015-19) enabled her to generate a unique and enduring dance research approach: she explores sustainability in bodily and social ecologies via a somatic focus on cycles of rest, activity and waste.

In Auckland, he is in residency at AUT University, where he is working on a scanner synthesizer device that produces sound from scanned images and projects them in real-time, somewhat like a reversed spectrogram.
