Title Description:
The musical work of @c (Pedro Tudela and Miguel Carvalhais) is developed in the cross-section of complimentary approaches to sound aesthetics and electronic music. If on one hand it's immediately perceptible that there's usually a very strong rhythmic pulse, it's also common that they integrate several elements that are free from these structures. Very often these are generated algorithmically or based in field recordings or sampling, contributing to the setting up of strategies of deconstruction.
The improvisation, or real-time composition, in dialogue or discussion is the key to their performances, as is the will not to create closed compositions but rather to digitally amplify sound realities, creating cross-links between referrals and memories, playing with the balance between reconnaissance and abstraction.
@c perform either as a duo or, when @c + Lia, as an audiovisual trio, developing algorithmic compositions in which audio and visual elements are integrated. The images in the @c + Lia performances are much more than a merely decorative factor, or an accessory element to sound, rather being regarded as an essential part of the experience.
@c + Lia have already performed in some of the major venues and festivals in Portugal and perform abroad regularly, having already played in Germany, Austria, Spain, The Netherlands, United Kingdom and Chile. In spite of the sharp audiovisual integration proposed by their performances, these regularly admit the collaboration with other musicians, as it is shown in "v3" with Andy Gangadeen, Vitor Joaquim, Jo‹o Hora and Manuel Mota, besides Pedro Almeida that was part of the project from 2000 to 2003.
