A meeting > point, highly receptive to the pulse of the avant-garde, that offers to a > varied public the formats of a sound laboratory, a leisure area, a museum, a > conference and professional convention hall. Music, audiovisual arts, > digital creation and thought converge in this absolutely essential event. > > As in previous editions, SÓNAR once again anticipates and offers a detailed > scan of avant-garde creation of our times and opens the way to proposals > that have a specific and seminal impact on electronic culture. The programme > is open, rich in nuances and for another consecutive year embraces different > artistic manifestations (music, film and electronic art), patent testimony > to the ever increasing promiscuity amongst disciplines. > > Sound manipulation and rhythm research, the new forms of landscaping and a > spirit for experimentation are the defining characteristics of a new > generation of artists whom SÓNAR BY DAY has opted for. The repertoire of > artists -Cex, Dntel, Lali Puna, Donna Regina, Static, Isan, Wobbly, Balago- > come from fields such as indie, pop, experimentation or contemporary music, > and coincide in their use of digital tools with which they produce pieces > beyond classification by means of microscopic sounds, glitches and abstract, > highly emotive melodies. > > Within the music programme of SÓNAR2002, the showcases and SONARLAB standout > once again as presentation formats for the work of record labels and > artistic collectives. In this editions SÓNAR will offer an overview of the > productions and latest releases of renowned international labels -Morr > Music, City Centre Offices, Staalplaat, Karaoke Kalk- with special emphasis > on the Californian electronic scene represented by Musork, Tigerbeat6 and > Plug Research. Special mention must be given to the participation of record > labels from countries that normally have limited resources for promoting > their national production such as Escuadrón Sudaca (Venezuela). > > Convinced that leisure and experimentation are not necessarily antagonistic, > SÓNAR BY NIGHT once again opts for a programme full of stylistic nuances > that go beyond the usual club context. Its three stages -SONARCLUB, > SONARPARK Y SONARPUB- will offer very adventurous proposals such as Andy > Votel or Sirconical as well as great names of dance music such as Richie > Hawtin, Carl Cox or Óscar Mulero. Other highlights are the appearance of the > kings of techno-pop Pet Shop Boys, the live soundtrack from the film by > Jean Painlevé "The Sounds of Science" which will be interpreted by Yo La > Tengo, and the dj set performed by the British Alison Goldfrapp. > > Although SÓNAR dedicates most of its programme to concerts and Dj's, the > rest of its activities are directly linked to musical creation either > through their implicit subject matter or because various artistic > disciplines coexist in the same support. All the activities combined in > their diversity, and especially SonarMatica, the multimedia area, are > fundamental ingredients that endow the festival with character, variety and > a differentiated personality. > > After having previously presented the creative realities of Barcelona, > Berlin and London, SONARMÁTICA2002 now turns its eye to Helsinki. A guided > tour through the most breakaway and original activities that take place in > the Scandinavian capital, with a special emphasis on the area of digital > creation and new technologies. In this section, some of the highlights are > the installations of Tommi Grönlund and Petteri Nisunen as well as the works > of the Katastro.fi collective, one of the most influential and innovative > multimedia art platforms on the European scene. > > > SÓNAR 2002 PRE-LINE UP (14.03.02): > > CONCIERTOS > PET SHOP BOYS (UK) > YO LA TENGO (USA) > TUXEDOMOON (MEX) > LAMB (UK) > RADIOBOY (UK) > ANTI-POP CONSORTIUM (USA) > S.I.
