The Audio Foundation

According to its homepage The Audio Foundation is
a networking and resource database hub for the representation, facilitation, support and promotion of innovative and experimental artistic development in NZ Audio Culture.

It's a pretty neat site, put together by Zoe Drayton, and it has a gig guide outlining up-and-coming events such as Alt.Music.3 at Artspace.


An artist index is also included on the site; it's fairly sparse now as the site is new, but this promises to develop into a valuable resource.

On a related note, two interesting gigs in the next few days here in Wellington:

Friday night/City Gallery/9pm to 12pm/free: Dino Karlis [HDU], Bevan Smith [Signer] and Andrew Thomas.

we'll be playing some live instruments and making our laptops make some noises too.

Saturday night/Adam Art Gallery/7pm/$10,$8 unwaged,$5 Friends and Members: New Voices A collaboration between Rosy Parlane, Richard Francis and Campbell Kneale.

This event brings together three of New Zealand's most exciting and dynamic sound artists. All three have been actively creating phonic works for the past decade and have participated in sound festivals and exhibitions throughout Europe, the U.S.A and Australia. This event represents an ideal opportunity to witness collaboration between three of the most innovative sound artists currently practicing in New Zealand.
