Mesmerism Summer Festival
Whether you’ve had a tough week or are just an avid fan of meditation, Mesmerism is the art festival you're well in need of.
Overview
Clear your weekend, because local art guru Luke Jaaniste is bringing to the Judith Wright Centre a festival like no other. Mesmerism Summer Festival is a unique art- and ideas-based, Diplo-free festival that focuses more on ambience than beat drops.
Part hypnotic, part-meditative and totally relaxing for all, Mesmerism is a collection of sonic immersions, aimed at mesmerising the body, mind and soul. Promising the comfiest cushions in the universe, it welcomes you to lie down, sit or simply pace about while letting your body listen and float through gorgeous clouds of undulating sound.
Friday night will features Involuntary Strings by Sydney sound artist Michaela Davies, and Luke himself will be performing Trance Piano on an amplified, thunderous grand piano. Prepare to tremble.
Saturday is set to deliver a full spectrum of audible throbbing, featuring a Tam Tam Solo by renowned percussionist Vanessa Tomlinson and electric guitars and basses from local rock and experimental musicians Chris Perren (Nonsemble, Software of Seagulls, Mr Maps), Seamus Kirkpatrick (King Colossus), Adrian Mauro (Machine Age) and James Scott (Tesla Coils).
