ENJOY ‘Yes, wouldn’t it be nice’ by Emmy Twigge.

-

Taking piece’s from her recent exhibition at South Square Gallery, Emmy Twigge offers a re-interpretative installation exploring the evolution of her art works. Twigge sees showing at Enjoy as an opportunity for experimentation and relinquishment of her normal parameters.

Accompanied with a sound work by Bijan mosavi, inspired by the exhibition’s theme ‘‘Yes wouldn’t it by nice’.

-

Emmy Twigge’s current practice is concerned with her felt sense of being using visual signs and metaphors. The works have a physical immediacy making them felt rather then merely seen; sometimes pleasing, sometimes uncomfortable. Not to be misunderstood as an attempt at expression of feelings. Her work quite literally aims to translate her felt experience into the object. At times touching on or articulating the viewers own private experience.

Icarus UK & EU Tour April / May 2011

Icarus , Quip & DJ Missaw

Wednesday 20th April @ 7pm

In 2011, after a long hiatus, UK electronicistas Icarus set out in search of their first complete studio album in over 5 years (since The Leaf Label‘s “I Tweet the Birdy Electric“), only to emerge for a short tour throughout April and May. Icarus issue forth their barrage of sculpted hyperrythms and microtonal flutter in select locations throughout the UK and Europe.

Recent work By Icarus

Inch-Time – Of Times Past (Icarus Wow and Flutter Mix)
Caribou – Bowls (Icarus Remix)
Eclectic Method feat. Chuck D – Outta Sight (Icarus Remix)
Icarus Live @ The Empress, Melbourne, March 2010
Icarus/Badun – Flensburg EP (promo excerpts)
Icarus’ “Not Applicable Recordings” Showcase DJ set online @ The Liminal

-

So far this year, Icarus have produced a flurry of remixes for the artists Inch-TimeCaribou and Eclectic Method featuring Chuck D. Imminently forthcoming is their collaborative limited-edition vinyl EP with Danish electronica duo Badun, with whom Icarus‘ musical affinity is clearly audible.

Icarus‘ major project, the forthcoming album, Fake Fish Distribution, due towards the end of the year, is a peculiar undertaking, taking the form of a 1,000 limited-edition digital release in which each version is different from the last, each track interpolating through vast variations in structure and content as the versions are downloaded, to form a huge tapestry of variation from a single body of music. The album is being created new techniques using the software Max for Live, developed by Icarus during a residency at STEIM in the Netherlands.

“Bown and Britton are craftsmen when it comes to building condensed and intricate sound formations, and while it is difficult to isolate the various sections of a piece, they collate them with precision.”The Milk Factory

“Picking up Kamikaze for a buck in the clearance bin of Amoeba Records back in 2001 was one of the best decisions i’ve ever made!”Last FM commenter

enjoy an exploration into things that aren’t what they are

Opening: 7:30pm, 6th April, 2011

A series of work produced by Joe Morris and Rian Treanor throughout the period of 14:18 hours, 11th January until 19:30 hours, 6th April,  2011.

How many facts or propositions are conveyed by a photograph? None, an infinity, or one great unstatable fact? Bad question… A picture is not worth a thousand words, or any other number. Words are the wrong currency to exchange for a picture.

In this exhibition the two artists use a process of ‘literal expression’ to call into question assumptions about objects and the environment and present these as misnomers. The artists examine how our conceptions of the world not only inform but also distort a view of reality.

Open 7:30pm, 6th April, then by appointment until 16th April,

Attack Space Decay Time

ATTACK SPACE DECAY TIME
by Mark Fell at Enjoy Artspace, Leeds.

Open 7:30pm, 26th February

For his new show ‘Attack Space Decay Time’ Fell extends his recent work with geometry, time and sound using a process called ‘convolution’ to combine acoustic fingerprints of actual spaces with real-time sonification of mathematical functions. Over the past year Fell has collected impulse responses from hidden, underground and utility spaces. In addition to his recordings, several notable artists—including Florian Hecker and Christophe Charles—have submitted impulses from around the world for this project. An impulse response refers to the reaction of any dynamic system in response to some external change; it describes the reaction of the system as a function of time. However, an ideal impulse is a mathematical construct and cannot exist in reality, as it would have to be infinitesimally narrow in time.

Open 7:30pm, 26th February, then from 1pm to 5pm,
Wednesday to Friday, 2nd to 11th of March.
ENJOY Artspace. Mabgate, Leeds LS9 7DZ.
