LEMUR NIGHT à l¹ATELIER FRANKFURT, Friday 8th of April 2005.

O.blaat, Laurent Dailleau, Jeremy Bernstein, Guillaume Largillier and Franck
Stofer will gather at Atelier Frankfurt on 8th of April to present an
atypical touch panel controller: the LEMUR. It will be the first time these
experienced artists use this new device as a live performance tool.
Scheduled OFF the MusikMesse (where the JazzMutant* company has its own
stand**), this free event is a collaborative and interactive world premiere
set in a very convivial environment.

O.BLAAT (Lemur, laptop w/Max/MSP, Japan/USA)
"Art of Disappearance" continues. Based in Brooklyn, New York, sound artist,
composer, [electroluxe] event schemer, core member of SHARE
(http://share.dj), o.blaat (Keiko Uenishi) is known for creating various
interactive audio environments such as 'beat piece (with Ping-Pong game)' or
'audio coat check'. All of which were resulted from her ceaseless pursuits
of ways to erase the performer's presence and ultimately alter the listening
situation altogether.

LAURENT DAILLEAU (Theremin, AKS, Lemur, laptop w/Max/MSP, France)
Trained as a classical organ player, he started playing theremin in the
nineties. Performing on a theremin/laptop computer system, he has written
several compositions for the theater, working with French choreographer
Michel Schweizer in the late eighties. He often performs solo and
collaborates on a regular basis with other performers (his latest project
being S.S.S/ Sensors_Sonics_Sights with Cécile Babiole (video/sensors) and
Atau Tanaka (BioMuse, computer)).

JEREMY BERNSTEIN (Video, Lemur, laptop w/Jitter, USA/Germany)
Jeremy Bernstein splits his time between making audio and video works, and
developing the software he uses for making them. By chance or design, his
sound- and image-based projects and collaborations have been presented
throughout Europe and North America. For several years, he has worked with
the software company Cycling '74, and is a co-developer of the Jitter
multidimensional processing environment. He lives in Berlin, Germany.

GUILLAUME LARGILLIER (Lemur, laptop w/Max/MSP, France)
Born in the late 1970s, the first years of Guillaume Largillier were not
particularly fruitful; his early artistic endeavors included drawn-out
studies, the painful acquisition of guitar techniques, felt-pen drawings and
modeling clay figurines. The following decade was also not that productive:
he spent years fighting with his mouse desperately trying to make his laptop
sing. But in 2000, he decided to throw away his mouse and started, together
with his friends Pascal Joguet and Julien Olivier, the JazzMutant company.

FRANCK STOFER (Drumpad, Lemur, laptop w/Reaktor, France/Japan)
Punk hardcore drummer in the late nineties, he started is own record label
Sonore (www.sonore.com) in 1998 with a taste for experimental music,
releasing artists such as: Ruins, Hoppy Kamiyama, Fuzzybunny, Chris Brown,
Carl Stone, Yuko Nexus6, Satoru Wono, and Satanicpornocultshop. Expert in
Japanese music, he published the "Japanese Independent Music" ressource book
(ed. Sonore, 2001) and naturally relocated to Tokyo in 2003.
