further investigation
Electric Indigo’s nomadic style of existence and creativity speaks to me for some reason.
As an individual I thoroughly crave stability, but I have quickly come to learn that as a self proclaimed ‘sonic and visual artist’, such needs are extremely unrealistic. The idea of moving to and from country with equipment and tight budgets/grants (whilst probably a little more strategically difficult due to Brexit) seems to evoke a different kind of nervousness within me, it is perhaps tinged with curiousness and a little bit of desire, but until I am placed in such a situation it will be hard to know.
There seems to be quite a lot of depth and artistic agency within a practice such as Dj’ing, but with their sonic techniques, each set is interesting and unique in its own way. Their founding of ‘female:pressure’ is really inspiring too, as I have recently taken on ‘eyesinmyart’, a less certified, sonic version of a production company. I one day hope for it to be as special as Indigo’s community.
