Tonight hosts a selection of artists we've been wanting to work with for some time now at WORM, poured into a programme format we usually run in our 'dependance' artspace in Vienna's MuseumsQuartier - the WORM Detour.

Detour is a monthly evening of variable dimension, multiformat performances, highlighting artists who take sonic action using the world wide web and/or the urban environment as medium and/or material. Detour accentuates sonic artforms which in some way consider our existence in networked urban spaces as their resonating context.
Detour is hosted by WORM in Vienna's MuseumsQuartier/QDK, and is curated by Bernhard Garnicnig in close collaboration with the moddr_lab.

Loud Objects
As of recent we already had Tristan Perich' amazing '1-Bit Symphony' available in the WORM_shop, so we're triple glad to have the full Loud Objects group with us tonight ::
Tristan Perich, Kunal Gupta and Katie Shima create electronic noise with minimal components: microchips, a power jack, an audio jack, and wire. The group solders custom audio circuits live, creating audible fluctuations of electricity with these bare elements. The New York City-based trio stage their lush noise constructions with soldering irons on top of overhead projectors, slide projectors, fluorescent light towers, and remodeled guitars.

SoundWWWalk
With Constant Dullaart, Peter Moosgaard and Will Schrimshaw
In tonight's localhosted_WORM Detour we present three Soundwwwalk performances, an emerging genre of live browser-based performances using <embed> improvisation, plugin sound-collage and multitab mixing, shamelessly blending the traditions of pro-surfing, Soundwalking and laptop music.
Constant Dullaart, Peter Moosgaard and Will Schrimshaw will take the audience on a sonic Detour through the World Wide Web. A Soundwwwalk considers the act of surfing the World Wide Web as form of sonic action.

The artists will perform their Soundwwwalks themselves on stage or transmit their notation, sometimes in real time, to a localt interpreter operating the browser.
All performances follow the Soundwwwalk One-Line-Manifesto: "All sound sources must be played in a browser, must not be self-produced and must to be publicly accessible."
