New Music Collective presents Philip White on the Redux Stage

The NMC is proud to present a concert by one of its originators! Electronic noise artist and New Music Collective co-founder Philip White will perform works for sound and video at Redux Contemporary Art Center. The concert will feature the world premiere of the video work shut(d)er as well as a solo performance on homemade electronics. The first is a sound and video work designed to disrupt your brain’s ability to perceive patterns. The solo performance primarily features sound that is generated through feedback. The concert will be preceded by an informal lecture by the artist at 6pm on his compositional techniques and the conceptual underpinnings of his work.

About Philip White:

Philip White’s performances center on a non-linear feedback system, which consists of a mixer and several homemade circuits. In addition to his work with analog and digital electronics, White has written extensively for chamber ensembles and created a large body of inter-media pieces that explore meaning in information transmission.

In 2008, Philip received his MFA from Mills College where he studied with Chris Brown, Hilda Parades, Helmut Lachenmann, Roscoe Mitchell and James Fei. His works have been exhibited in galleries across the US and Germany. He currently performs with Suzanne Thorpe (thenumber46), Chuck Johnson (with chuck johnson with philip white) and Charity Chan (Cat on a Wire). Recent performances/exhibitions include The Stone (NYC), Sonic Circuits (DC), Redux New Media Festival (Charleston, SC) and Neurotitan (Berlin). Thenumber46’s forthcoming debut Bleach and Ammonia is being released in cassette format on Tape Drift Records. Philip also writes about music, contributing to the Wire magazine and SEAMUS Journal.
