LOOP >>60Hz: Transmissions from The Drone Orchestra

Two fearless innovators, musical pioneer John Cale and technology storyteller Liam Young, transformed the Barbican's Theatre with a brand new audio-visual collaboration. A film by Bevis Bowden about 'LOOP>>60Hz: Transmissions from The Drone Orchestra', a work by John Cale and Liam Young, commissioned by the Barbican and The Space as part of Digital Revolution. The performance took place on 12 & 13 September 2014.

"LOOP>>60Hz offers an unprecedented experience as John Cale and his band perform music from across his catalogue, expressly adapted to durational forms, unusual tunings and unorthodox audio delivery. Liam Young’s collection of drones escape their associations with surveillance and the military, becoming instead choreographed, disembodied instruments which take flight in the auditorium to create a profoundly immersive live music performance."  https://www.barbican.org.uk/music/event-detail.asp?ID=16737
