‘Continuum Attic’ feat: Darren Adcock, Nicola Singh, Pascal Nichols & Sam Weaver
Darren Adcock’s “Continuum Attic” is an ongoing experiment in making, synthesisers, motorised sculptures and sensors which talk to each other. Multiple signal loops are overlayed to generate long form or pseudo random compositions.
A night of continuous music in which we invite sound-artist & singer Nicola Singh, percussionist Pascal Nichols & synthesist Sam Weaver to interrupt separate sound paths and make the intrusions central to its form.

Darren Adcock‘s practice incorporates drawing, sound, self-taught electronics, mechanics., sculpture, interaction and installation.
Different disciplines interconnect, emphasising a number of key tropes and themes including: scale and detail and their relationship to compulsion and detachment; disability rights and issues; improvisation or interruption; and modular approaches to bodies of work.

Nicola Singh (b. 1986, Newcastle, UK) works across performance, dance, visual art and experimental music. Her work reflects an interest in the performative role that language, movement and sound play both in reflecting on reality and in shaping our understanding of that reality. Nicola’s work is generated from research and structured improvisation, often in collaboration with others.

Pascal Nichols is a multi-disciplinary artist working mostly in ceramics, sound and illustration. He lives and works in Manchester. He is one half of Part Wild Horses Mane On Both Sides alongside Kelly Jones and his work has been exhibited, commissioned and sold worldwide.

Sam Weaver, who uses his studio as a laboratory for sonic investigation and production, re-routing instruments into abstraction and deliberately misusing his equipment. Sam’s work exists between acousmatic music, free improvisation and experimental electronics, seeking to explore dynamics of sonic harmony and chaos.
