Sustain-Delay’s “YOU ARE THE INSTRUMENT” featuring Dafne & Accla

23 October, 2024 | 8:00 pm - 9:45 pm

As part of MSA x ACM Performing Arts Programme 2024 – Sustain-Delay series of music events

Sustain-Delay – YOU ARE THE INSTRUMENT featuring Dafne & Accla

The body electric, literally.

Join us for “You Are The Instrument”, a night of groundbreaking adventurous music that touches upon the human body’s potential to create and interact with sound.

This unique event will feature performances by:
Dafne (Daphne Sammut): Known for her innovative use of brainwaves to craft music, Dafne will take us on a journey into a techno-infused soundscape that pulses with energy and emotion. An invitation to experience the raw power of the body in motion, every beat and rhythm echoing the life within us.

Accla (Adrian Camilleri): Delve into the world of humanist experimental noise with Accla, blurring the lines between performer and instrument. A visceral exploration of sound, using the body’s electricity, thumbing cables, and raw energy to create a captivating and unpredictable sonic experience.

Come ready to engage with music in its most primal form. Feel the vibrations, sense the electric current, and discover the sound of your own being.

This event forms part of the Malta Society of Arts’ Performing Arts Programme 2024 which is done in collaboration with Arts Council Malta.

[ About Sustain – Delay ]

Welcome to a year-long programme of adventurous music at the Malta Society of Arts, mixing electronic music with sounds further afield.

Bringing together musicians from near and far, in 2024, Sustain-Delay presents a year-long programme of acts experimenting with sound: from organic materials to the rhythmic sway of drum machines; mediaeval instruments to ethereal ambient music. Join us as we fill Palazzo De La Salle in Valletta with music previously unexplored by the Malta Society of Arts.

This project forms part of the Malta Society of Arts’ Performing Arts Programme 2024 which is done in collaboration with Arts Council Malta.

Kurt Buttigieg – Biography

Kurt Buttigieg is an “occasional artist and unwavering tinkerer”, with a perpetual organisational streak.

He read for a Master’s degree in Sound Art from the University of Barcelona and previously worked at the museum of the European Parliament in Brussels as curator for temporary and permanent exhibitions, and also planned spin-off museums in other EU capitals.

He organised numerous concerts, workshops and exhibitions in Malta and Belgium, as well as founding a small label called Complex Holiday documenting “inside-out ambient and sound art tomfoolery”. He is also a writer for several specialised magazines, including The Wire and New Noise.

As an artist and musician he released several works over that past twenty years, under his and other names, and created Malta’s first dedicated sound art installation in 1999.

A strong believer in community, Kurt is a committee member of the Banda Immakulata Kunċizzjoni (Ħamrun), Ħsus, Arsha Our and is active in other social, cultural and environmental projects.
