About Voices in Buildings

Voices in Buildings brings together artists and musicians: a continuous soundtrack running throughout the event, with musicians dropping in and out as a backdrop to a loose schedule of performances.

Among rituals of soundtracking, repetition, influence and coercion, this event seeks to assemble a sonorous body with a dissonant communion of voices.

Featuring
Han - Sounds and voice
Fraser McPhail - Drums
Simone Seales - Cello and voice
Peter Ross - Voice
Jude Browning - Voice


Han is a DJ, producer, performer, sound designer, healthcare worker, and ex-biomedical engineer. She is a resident DJ at La Cheetah, runs Events Research Programme(An events series that focuses on experimental musicians), and edits radical healthcare magazine The Guts of It. She likes to make weird music about institutions, informed by her commitment to political asceticism.

Peter Ross, is an Ear Nose Throat (ENT) consultant for Tayside NHS. Peter has been working with Voices in Buildings through a series of conversations exploring amongst many other things, the physiology of voice over time.

Jude Browning runs At Practise (David Dale Gallery) an event series offering an experimental testing ground for the rehearsal and delivery of written texts. With support from Copy Press, they are developing a performance looking at the Ranters, a 17th-century disorganised group of religious radicals, analysed through mystical deviance, feminism and anti-fascist black metal.

Fraser McPhail is a drummer who plays predominately with Glasgow's death metal band Coffin Mulch. (Previously of bands Acid Cannibals / Droves / Public Service)

Simone Seales is a cellist, poet, and performing artist. They focus on free improvisation, both tonal and atonal, and devising music for theatre. Their creative influences come from Black feminist leaders such as Audre Lorde, Assata Shakur and bell hooks. Within Simone's creative work, they centre Blackness, sexuality, intersectional feminism and anti-racism. They believe Western Classical musicians are capable of making meaningful social change.
