Bonambi Records & Haekem Theatre are very happy to share an evening of live concerts full of drone layers, noisy guitars, mesmerizing Ambient/Post-Rock vibes and improvised music.

20h: Zemlya
21h: Stereocilia

Stereocilia is Bristol, UK based composer John Scott. 

Through his guitar, analog synths and live looping techniques he creates dense and rich atmospheres of sound resulting in a cinematographic and cathartic experience.
Over the past 10 years he has performed all over Europe and has shared a stage with acts including Ben Frost, William Basinski, Gnod, Nadja, Daniel Lanois, Noveller, Acid Mothers Temple and Josef Van Wissem.
He has also presented work for live radio broadcasts, and regularly composes for Short Film, including the Channel 4 award winning documentary “The Boy With The 8-Hour Heart”.
His 5th album “Crystalline” will be out in April 2023 on Drone Rock Records.

Zemlya’s “earth, land” is formed by spherical drone layers, distortion and crashing cymbals, from which their own meditative, metallic sound world arises. Through their live performance, Geraldine Vanspauwen (Lazzaro) and Maan Methven enter into an energy-driven dialogue between drums, bass guitar and voice, that connects clarity and distortion, finds intimacy in feedback, and explores both rough noise and uplifting silence, soaking in the deeper fields of imagined landscapes, inspired by the sounds and rhythms of their inner bodies and surroundings.

SIMON HALSBERGHE /BE
(electronics, experimental, dance, techno)
SIMON HALSBERGHE improvises his music, constantly exploring new possibilities and offering a unique and evolving electronic sound. Like a scientist, he focuses on the concept of time, creating an intriguing rhythm that defies traditional dance tempo. He achieves this by blending hardware machines with computer music, resulting in a sound that transports listeners to new and unknown territories, which Simon often discovers at the same moment as the listener, causing both to face the present and immerse themselves in the experience.
In addition to his solo work, Simon has composed music for theatre productions. He was awarded the prize for Best Soundtrack at the Angers Film Festival in France for his work on the animated short film "Kitten Instinct" by Liesbet Eeckman. Simon has also worked as a DJ and composer for the fashion industry, creating tailor-made shows for top designers such as Gianni Versace and Christopher Kane.
Previously, Simon released music under different names, including Pitch & Hold (Love Triangle Music), Simon Hold (Vlek Records) and Habergeon (Gentle Tapes).

Haekem: We Earth Neurons - April Thur 20th AND Frid 21th

@Haekem Theatre Lakensestraat/rue de Laeken, 66 - 1000 Brussels 

on April 20th & April 21th, improvised music, electro and expos

2 days Event: We Earth Neurons

More than 20 years ago I created and developed with my team AI driven medical training courses. "AI Patients" were able to speak, have and show emotion, suffer or recover and be happy or not!

MDs were able making their own diagnosis and treatment entering all the physical, exams and could prescribe additional tests if deemed necessary.

AI was able to manage patient life in all aspects, following medical guide lines and Experts experience. AI drive what will happen.

Were we a bit in advance? No. 

AI progresses are really slow!

This expo is dedicated to AI progresses. Music, visuals, writing, speaking have never be so fluent, so creative. Poetry appears.

Long life to AI! And thanks to Rinus, Omar, Vladimir and all the artists present these two days for their amazing work.

You are welcome.

April 20th AND April 21th
Installation 1: *The New Interactive Womb*
The "Interactive Womb" is an art science project created by a team of artists and researchers at the University of Leuven, Belgium. The project aims to provide visitors with a simulated experience of being in a womb, using multisensory technology to create a fully immersive environment.
The project involves a large, translucent, foamy biological structure rising the long-lost memory of the Womb, which visitors can enter. Once inside, visitors can interact with a range of sensory stimuli, including light, sound, smell and touch, that simulate the experience of being in a womb.
The creators of the project hope that it will provide visitors with a new perspective on the meaning-of-life and encourage discussion about the role of technology in the immortalization and rejuvenation of the human body.
Overall, the "Interactive Womb" project is an extremely innovative and thought-provoking combination of art and science that has the potential to induce a positive psychosis in human subjects or Alternative State of Mind.( Session 19' more or less)



Installation 2: "NeuReunion"
Installation 2: "NeuReunion" by omiCrobe, a collection of 333 animated contemporary works of art: a playful exploration on the fusion of biology and technology, produced with AI assistance and published on the blockchain as nft. (mp4, 768x768)

We delve into the mysteries of the mind, exploring the depths of consciousness and the intricacies of thought, illuminating the human experience through the lens of art. In this age of artificial intelligence, we are forced to confront some of the most profound questions about what it means to be human. AI forces us to think about intelligence, consciousness, what is identity, what is an individual, what makes us human. Through our art, we explore these questions and seek to deepen our understanding of what it means to be human. We believe that art has the power to inspire and challenge us, to open our minds to new possibilities and to unlock the full potential of human creativity. By engaging with these questions and exploring the mysteries of the mind, we seek to create art that is both meaningful and transformative, inspiring others to join us in this exploration and to contribute their own unique perspectives and insights to the conversation. Our art reflects the richness and diversity of the human experience, and it is through this diversity that we can embrace this visionary future.

& more surprises!
