Immersion is a free-entry experimental music/sound-art event featuring a

experiments and tones/drones.
Immersion is an arena for new and established artists performing live
experimental electronic music partnered by stimulating projected visuals
processed live and tailored for each performance.
The Flea-Pit is a unique cafe-bar/arts venue with comfortable retro
furniture - and a gallery/performance area, in the heart of east/central

Gareth Mitchell:
Using primarily voice and prepared guitar, live work is based around
reinventing songs, improvising and augmenting sound with loops, effects and
laptop electronics.
He has released five solo albums of experimental music on various labels
such as Kranky and ERS/Staalplaat and performed at numerous venues such as
The Knitting Factory in New York and festivals around Europe such as Nozart
in Cologne and EARational in s'Hertogenbosch, Holland and OFFF in Barcelona.
Collaborations include those with Stefano Giust, Thomas Kumlehn, Rediffusion
and We Have Information. He has worked on several commissions, most recently
for the National Theatre ("Next Generation"), Resonance FM's Radio Gallery
series and the Arts Council ("speaksong" for the Lit Up festival in Kendal).

Map 165:
There is a rich history of providing soundtracks for classic silent films
and in this way discovering something new about the pieces. This is
especially true of the work of the early 20th century Surrealists. Their
extraordinary and pioneering work still amazes and provides a wonderful
opportunity to marry creative sound to their startling images. To this end,
Map 165 will be providing new soundtracks for a selection of short
Surrealist films by Leger and Man Ray. Using their usual 'planned
improvisation' method, Martin A. Smith and Tim Hooper hope to unearth new
meanings and deeper complexities within the films.

Orfeus 9:
Orfeus 9 melds electronic music with samples including space debris, poetry
and natural sounds to create ambient soundscapes, big beat and IDM. An
eclectic sonic crucible.

SS_R:
Presents a series of sound experiments created by building upon
non-programmed minimal repetitions of static noise and rhythmic feedback -
processed through multiple filters and defined by accidental and reactive
parameter interactions.

Suero:
Suero is not looking for an electronic-perfect-label to describe what it
does. Suero does not use computers. Suero builds a real time sound-noise
sculpture based on his own sounds, to drive the listener to an analogue
extreme and dark field, rather than a "cliche electronic happiness".
