Mira Mohsen - Digital World

The author says: "I have been practicing digital painting for 3 years, which is very different from the technique of pencil and brush. I experiment constantly in search of the different, through the expression of shapes and colors. Basquiat is my great inspiration with the unmistakable charm in their paintings."

Audiovisual performance by Mikhail Goleminov

Yet another event from the Special French Focus edition starts in Kapana - Audiovisual performance by Mikhail Goleminov (life electronics, video, original genre software)

Electronic, musique électroacoustique and musique concrète are a typically French phenomenon inspired by Futurism, whose father is considered to be Pierre Henry. The exceptional composer passed away quite recently, and this is another reason for him to be honored with a sound monument inspired by the spiritual heritage he left.

The scheduled performance has the potential to make the Bulgarian audience acquainted with an unfamiliar aspect of the French-speaking music avant-garde from the middle and the second half of the twentieth century.

The project sheds light on the personality, creative work and impulses to the future of music, in the context of the phenomenon Pierre Henri - a French composer who created and affirmed the notion musique électroacoustique and musique concrète. Today, these definitions are often used, but few are familiar with the roots of this music, which are in the Club d'Essai - the studio of the French Radio and Television in Paris.

The performance is in the form of an audiovisual collage with works by Pierre Henry, a combination of visualization and generative audio
environment, created in real time by a computer programme, specially designed by Mihail Goleminov as well as through the usage of virtual instruments.

Mixology #9 guest bartender Seslav Petrov + music by Jun Yoshida

Seslav Petrov is dedicated to his work behind the bar, and his favorite activity is the preparation of cocktails with seasonal products. He works as a chief bartender at the newly-opened SiPi bar, but in the recent past, you may have spotted him in The Happy Pig or in a variety of bartending competitions.

The ninth Mixology will be impressive because, besides a guest bartender, there will be a guest behind the console, in the face of the ubiquitous chef and huge music lover Jun "Disco Pigg" Yoshida, who has repeatedly shown his skill in mixing musical cocktails predisposing to dance.

The Atelier - annual exhibition

The Atelier is the place for all who have dreamed of becoming artists and, even though their life has gone in a different direction, their hands are nagging for pencils and brushes. Their attempts, even when they are incomplete or timid, show that painting is another means of expression that everyone has the right to... When there is desire, there is work, there is a result.
