Deep Immersion: Keith Netto + Electric.Music.Group

1997

The second online residency of the 'deep immersion: creative collaborations' project to develop SonicForm, a web based sound project.

The second residency in this program was for Keith Netto to work with Electric.Music.Group [EMG], an experimental web project which has been online since 1995. It was set up as an outlet for artists working in a range of technology based areas who wanted to extend their work to the Internet. More recently, the site has focused on an exploration of online sound.

The site contains a diverse range of experimental web projects and performance related archives such as Denis Beaubois' surveillance documentary archive: In the event of Amnesia - the city will recall, and soundworks such as areasi, phases and the ridiculous toydeath web site.

SonicForm, will develop a platform for web participants to become involved in the project by inviting them to go out into their local environment to source sounds for submission to SonicForm. These sounds, will be combined with those sourced from others in the SonicForm 'community', to become part of the online environment: this is a project premised on collaboration.
