Somehow it all just keeps going. A night of music by friends / collaborators / comrades.
Sunik Kim is a musician, writer and filmmaker currently based in Los Angeles. Her recent work attempts to unfold problems of perceptual and temporal distortion through computer-generated sound. Her writing on subjects ranging from Korean communism to Conlon Nancarrow has been featured in The Wire Magazine, Pitchfork, Bandcamp Daily, Tone Glow and elsewhere. Her latest album, Formenverwandler, was released in 2025.
Drawing from her extensive research on composer Conlon Nancarrow, Formenverwandler sees Kim exploring the time or tempo canon, which can pull and project the listener's senses, melting the temporal and spatial perception of presented sounds. As in previous works such as 2022’s Raid on the White Tiger Regiment and 2023’s Potential, Kim deploys patches and tools she has designed for SuperCollider, which take raw, utilitarian General MIDI notes and multiply and spray them into frenetic webs and networks of spiraling sound.

"Mark has had his ear at the grindstone since 1986, releasing through myriad legendary noise labels such as Broken Flag, No-Fi, MSBR, RRRecords, Harbinger Sound and more, collaborating with the likes of The New Blockaders in his time. His recordings deploy an array of homemade devices and environmental sounds in immersively textured electro-acoustic compositions. What separates Mark from the Noise masses is an appreciation of an equilibrium between sound and silence, and a tendency towards using highly ornate, detailed blurts of noise, rather than bold blocks used for overwhelming shock value. [PAN] compare him to sound poets of old, despite their differences, but he's most suited to a lineage of improvised Musique Concrète stretching back to the original GRCM lot, creating tenacious, yet subtly playful arrangements of acousmatic sounds whose quietude sucks you into their fabric and meshes you in." – Boomkat
