Joker Nies, circuit-bending performance and discussion, with Gino Robair, percussion

Joker Nies (Cologne, Germany) has presented workshops and performed his energetic improvisations on re-built electronic toys all over Europe and the U.S. He will be joined by well-known local percussionist Gino Robair, with guest appearances by vocalist Amy X Neuburg and instrument designer Rob Hordijk (Netherlands).

Joker will also give an explanation of circuit-bending and talk about his work, and Rob Hordijk will discuss his hand-made synthesizer the Blippobox — one of Joker’s featured instruments.
