Erratum #4 / Sound Review / Art + Noise + Poetry

An errant and irregular noise/art/poetry CD compilation.

Poetry of sound / sound of poetry.

ERRATUM# series, 53 artists

Erratum brings together personalities both atypical and unclassifiable : outriders, stalkers, survivors of the sonic crash zone, those transgressing the strictures and clichés of unimaginative sound habits.

Visual and sonic artists, bards, iconoclastic noise makers come together to create a subtle, hybrid, ever-changing, disseminated collective sonic psyche. From the time of Marcel Duchamp’s Musical Erratum and Luigi Russolo’s Art of Noises in 1913 to the latterday recuperation of software bugs, crashes, along with the eclectic array of contemporary poetical noise praxis, there is a rich, complex and poorly understood history.

Erratum’s aim is not so much to associate poetry and music as to seek out their potential to merge : the crossovers, the openings, the interzones, meetings and fault lines, the ineffable yet tangible open fusion, that blends the different vibrations of voice, noise and electronics.

Erratum weaves a lively and diagonal concretion, an alternative to restrictive and mechanical technological visions and it stands out as a realm of a possible Utopia of the indivisible that leads towards active questioning.
