2TOMS PROCESS 16.00 - 16.20 GMT

2TOMS aka Thomas Behuret & Thomas Fontin are a French A/V partnership 
par excellence. They have worked together for over two years in various 
multimedia exhibitions and will be performing together remotely from 
their homes in Paris & Lyon.

Thomas Behuret is a Paris based photographer working for musical 
magazines such as Vibrations & R&R.
He's artistic work is centres on the city and the influence of urban 
architecture on the people who live there. His starting point is 'The 
human in the city' and deals with notions of absorption, anonymity and 
standardisation of lifestyle that is reflected in city living. He has 
shown his work in exhibitions in France & Canada the most recent  being 
a multimedia
photographic installation "Eautopsie" for the event "Eaux arts el 
ectroniques " and  "Extension d'un vide" in collaboration with Thomas 
Fontin for the exhibition "Desert", both organized by Champ Libre, in 
Montreal.

Thomas Fontins' introduction to electronic music goes back to the free 
party movement of the late nineties while he was studying musicology at 
Paris University. After finishing his MA he decided to specialise in 
sound and video game design and is currently working as a sound 
designer for Eden Games, a video game development studio based in Lyon. 
He explains his compositional process as simple and pragmatic starting 
with the manipulation of concrete audio and textures. "Chaos, 
improvisation and chance always hold a central place in my compositions 
leading to a process that is both humorous & experimental. My principal 
inspirations are multiple but I remain easily influenced by the city 
and urban deserts, which are like a mirror of our present society".



John Kannenberg 16.30 - 17.15 GMT

John Kannenberg creates quietly reflective works in both image and 
sound that blur the boundaries between intention and accident. 
Incorporating techniques derived from free improvisation, musical 
composition, field drawing, minimalism, cubism and abstract 
expressionism in their construction, his works deal with a variety of 
themes including primal natural forces, spirituality and mindful 
contemplation, melancholy and nostalgia, abstracted narratives, and the 
confluence of sonic and visual art.

John's work has been presented in the United States, Europe and 
Australia, including appearances at the John Cage Musicircus at the 
Museum of Contemporary Art Chicago, the so.cal.sonic festival in Long 
Beach, ISEA 2004 in Tallinn, the Biennale of Electronic Arts in Perth, 
the Version Festival in Chicago, the Placard Festival in New York, the 
MAXIS festival in Sheffield, and several broadcast appearances on 
Resonance 104.4 FM London. He has released recordings on Crouton, 
Topscore, Grain of Sound, Retinascan, Earlabs and Cohort, and has been 
a co-presenter of the Something Else radio program on WLUW 88.7 FM 
Chicago.

Since April 2002, John has served as the creator, designer and curator 
of Stasisfield.com, an experimental music label and interdisciplinary 
digital art space presenting works by a diverse collection of artists 
from around the globe.

General Mixing 17.15 - 18.00

The Studio will re-open again for general mixing from 17.15 and 
participating artists will be available online to discuss their work. 
We would also encourage people to upload and mix their own sound and 
visual files as we end the session in an open net jam.

Furthernoise.org is hosting a series of monthly live A/V net events and 
is interested to hear from all audio and visual artists who feel that 
they could create interesting A/V performances in Visitors Studio.
