TENORI-ON Nights
Worldwide launch in London and Manchester
4th & 5th September 2007*
(*please note date correction)
Futuresonic is excited to co-present the worldwide launch of the
TENORI-ON by Toshio Iwai and Yamaha. TENORI-ON is a unique AV
instrument - a cross between intuitive performance instrument and art
object. Toshio Iwai's TENORI-ON show at Futuresonic 2006 was an
undisputed highlight of the festival, and the positive audience
response in the UK led Yahama to stage the worldwide launch in London
and Manchester. The TENORI-ON has been showcased and refined at major
music events and media art festivals; Sonar (Spain), Futuresonic
(UK), Ars Electronica (Austria), SIGGRAPH (USA) and Art Futura
(Spain), with the first fully realised live show produced by
Futuresonic in Manchester as a part of Futuresonic 2006. Toshio Iwai
will be joined by Robert Lippok, Capracara and Secondo on 4th
September at Phonica in London and by Robert Lippok, Secondo and
Graham Massey on 5th September at Mint Lounge in Manchester.
