A new collective will learn and develop a language of hand signals for conducted improvisation. It is an opportunity for musicians to become fully immersed in the environment of a large ensemble. Musicians from many different worlds of sound are involved in the project, and they hope to expand on what is seen as possible when it comes to composition, spontaneous composition and sound exploration. The emphasis is on the 'group mind' creation of the compositions and spoken narrative, which is rare for large ensembles. Using group imagination and improvisation they will create a variety of made up locations in their universe which they will guide the audience through when they perform live. The spoken narrative, and descriptions of these contrasting environments will also be sonically represented through conducted improvisation and a few loosely composed ideas, along the way. The ensemble includes members from Waxmachine, keg, the new eves, yumi and the weather, Daisy Rickman, hill, Mu quintet, Amon ra collective, MC4, yellow door, Ancient infinity orchestra, the Jed cutler band, and many more... + 'Safehouse' regulars.
