The Programme
This month we feature spoken word for the first time with Edin Suljic @sylviusse collaborating with @floodedaccess. We also have a serious dose of academic prowess on show, with PhD @dushume and PhDs to be @si_paton and @philmaguire_ . In this edition we feature sets from
Flooded Access and Edin Suljic
Flooded Access is the performing name of sound and visual artist Martin Lau. His sound work involves the creation of improvised noise/soundscapes, largely using electronics and flute. He created and runs Ealing Extranormal. Solo performances often involve live scoring NASA footage, silent movies and other public domain visual material.
Edin Suljic is a published writer, poet and artist based in London. His work has been exhibited at Tate Modern, and he performs internationally. Edin grew up in the multicultural, multinational society of former Yugoslavia, moving to the UK at the onset of the tragic Yugoslavian war in 1991. He likes a good story; telling and making stories about people in all their diversities is the best way of bringing people closer together.
Martin and Edin first performed together at the Whitechapel WriteIdea Festival and continue their conversation between words and sound tonight.
