As part of the Kou Records Festival at the new Blank Forms Performacne Space in NYC, JG Thirlwell will be leading a discussion with Oren Ambarchi and Randall Dunn after their performances. The discussion will concern the artists’ practices and approaches to their work and where they place it aesthetically and existentially.
Oren Ambarchi is an Australian multi-instrumentalist and musical polymath whose practice centers on the extended possibilities of the guitar. A prolific solo artist and consummate collaborator, he has performed and recorded with a diverse array of artists across three decades — notably with the Ghosted trio alongside Johan Berthling and Andreas Werliin, and his ongoing trio with Keiji Haino and Jim O’Rourke.
Randall Dunn producies records, composes scores, and directs sound for film. He has worked with Sunn O))), Earth, and Boris among many others. In 2017 he founded Circular Ruin Studios in NYC. He just released Manifold of Partially Actualized Realities on Kou Records.
