Saturday, 7 April

Kepla is the alias of Liverpool-based electronic composer and sound artist Jon Davies. Harvesting salvaged audio from a vast range of secondary sources, he crafts elaborate, seemingly dystopian sound worlds that are at once rooted in an earthly ecology and reflective of a distinctly alien lifeforce. Over the past three years, he has produced a self-released EP, co-created the acclaimed Absent Personae with media theorist DeForrest Brown, Jr. and video artist Chris Boyd, and composed the soundtrack for post-human play, ‘The Happy Jug’, with author Nathan Jones.

In addition to his performance, Jon Davies will also join us for an Artist Talkexploring underground music in the digital age on Saturday, 7 April.
