Traverse, 2009, World Premiere
In today's connected world we have many new methods of collaborating,
and many technical and artistic problems that arise in the process.
These two artists bring this chasm into focus and explore the
possibilities given by these constraints.
This project intersects i8u's minimal yet powerful sound sculptures and
CHiKA's geometric minimalist patterns to create a work that expresses
the examination and limitations of itself.
France Jobin aka i8u is a sound/installation/web artist whose work has been released on ROOM40 (AUS), nvo (AU) and recently, a collaboration with Tomas Phillips on ATAK (JP). She has worked with
Goem, Martin Tétreault and David Kristian.

Nocturne2
The many factions of dub converge onto one large stage to showcase just
how far Jamaica’s roots reggae templates have evolved toward new genres
in the hands of some of today’s hottest names.
None other than Skull Disco co-founder APPLEBLIM comes to Montreal for his
Canadian debut and a DJ set that showcases the many point sof fusion
between UK dubstep and Berlin techno. A seamless blend of echoes, bass,
and delays leads us to the heavily anticipated collaboration between
Canadian dub-don DEADBEAT and Berlin’s master vocalist of all things
dub, PAUL ST. HILAIRE . The collaboration is something of a natural
selection for MUTEK, given Deadbeat’s longstanding participation with
MUTEK, and the fact that St. Hilaire has also performed at MUTEK events
several times over the decade.
Next up, MODESELEKTOR and APPARAT join forces for the Canadian premiere of
MODERAT , a stunning live audio-visual production accompanied by the
striking video work of PFADFINDEREI . Again, MUTEK has a long history with
both acts, as Apparat first appeared here in 2005 and Modeselektor
performed here in 2006 and 2008.
And finally, the night winds to a tailspin with the breakneck dubstep
assault of the Digital Mystiks’ MALA , in town for a Canadian debut DJ
set.
Meanwhile, the SAVOY ROOM fills with the ambient soundscapes of EZEKIEL
HONIG , CLINKER , I8U , NOVI_SAD , and AUN .
