Notebook & Fountains present a night of live experimental audiovisual performances with MIRA新伝統 (Live/ FR+JP), Vora (Live/LA-US), and Gamelan Bike Bike (Live/CA) at the Roundhouse MIRA新伝統 was founded in Tokyo in 2018 and relocated to Athens in 2024. MIRA新伝統 (pronounced MIRA SHINDENTO) is the ongoing live performance of electronic musician Raphael Leray and performer Honami Higuchi. Weaving theory-fiction, music and performance art, the duo build ritualized audiovisual works that envision non-capitalist, post-anthropocentric mythologies. MIRA新伝統 performances are a continuous work rather than a fixed piece, mutating from one edition to the next as its music, sculpture and staging evolve. What a given audience encounters is always the current state of an ongoing metamorphosis. VORA was raised in and by the mountains and waters of Los Angeles. Part experimental electronic and part contemporary performance, VORA uses electronic production, cello, and channeled vocals to explore mysticism, ecology, and the intimate connection between body, land and emotion. Since 2021 VORA has performed nationally and internationally, touring their live A/V work The White Snake across Hong Kong, Taipei, and Singapore, and performing for designers at New York Fashion Week. VORA is a Rising Artist Grant recipient mentored by Nicolas Jaar, and founder of Water&Power, a music venue and community space in South LA centering queer and BIPOC artists. They curate VISCERA, a hybrid experimental performance night bridging DIY and traditional art. Gamelan Bike Bike draws its musical inspiration from Bali, Indonesia and its raw materials from the scrap metal bins of Vancouver. Since forming in 2012, the group has built unconventional instruments as a means to spark creativity, foster community, and generate new forms of contemporary gamelan. The ensemble has commissioned works from Balinese composers I Putu Gede Sukaryana (Balot), I Putu Swaryandana Ichi Oka, and Ni Made Ayu Dwi Sattvitri, among others. Their recent album Teka-Teki, released by label Insitu Recordings, is a series of intricate, puzzle-like works bridging sonic imaginaries between Bali and Vancouver. The ensemble regularly offers introductory gamelan workshops to the community. ࿐ ࿔*:･ﾟ♩ ♪ ♫ ♬ ♩ ♪ ♫ 𓇔 ♬ ♩ ♪ ♫ ♬˚ ⋅:*༄࿐ Notebook ♪ ♫ ♬ is a live experimental music and performance art platform and incubator; a community initiative celebrating both local and international BIPOC and 2SLGBTQIA+ talents through performance, mentorship, and workshops.
