Glitch Tonic #3 / Sound & Art Meetup: Drakh, RBNX, Darina Žurková (+ concert)

entry: free entrance

Every month we dedicate a space for an informal gathering of a community of artists creatively working with sound, experimental music and new media art. An ideal opportunity to share ideas, exchange experiences, get to know people and build a community around original approaches to making. During the meetup, invited guests will show us their concert setups or reveal behind-the-scenes of their creative methods, and open discussion about current or work-in-progress projects is also welcome.

This time, well-known figures of the Bratislava experimental scene will come to share their working methods: Ľubo Panák (Drakh, Vrtačky po desáté hodině) and sound and noise master Tobiáš Potočný (RBNX, Ružoví kovboji, Urbsounds Collective). From The Hague, we will also have a special guest – sonologist and Czech artist Darina Žurková, who will play a concert set on modified piano and electronics after the presentation at 21:00.

Edges: Prepared Piano & Electronics

Delving into the rich and unobtrusive inner soundscape of the piano, revealing the most delicate and raw sounds and blending them with electronic progressions – these elements combine to create a remarkable sonic environment within this project.

Darina Žurková is a composer, performer, pianist and sound artist based in The Hague, the Netherlands. Her work includes electroacoustic compositions, performances, fix media, live sets and sound installations and has been presented at venues and festivals in Europe, Indonesia and the United States. She is deeply fascinated by exploring imaginary sound ecosystems and revealing their inner fragility. Darina holds a PhD in composition and composition theory from the JAMU in Brno, has worked as a researcher at the Institute of Sonology (2018 – 2023) and is a member of the iii (Instrument Inventors Initiative) workspace and the STROOM platform in The Hague.

Dear visitors,

The leadership of the Ministry of Culture of the Slovak Republic is taking steps that are destroying Slovak culture! Their power interventions and changes in laws threaten our functioning as well as freedom and diversity of art. We protest against this course! The cultural centers associated in the Anténa network call on you, our audience, not to stay indifferent. We call on you to follow current events, visit our cultural spaces and discuss.

Stay with us and let’s fight together for free culture.

Part of the international cooperation project New Perspectives for Action within the Re-Imagine Europe partnership, co-funded by the European Union.
