Liquid Architecture 10: Festival of Sound Arts will be a landmark occasion for the festival and for sound culture in Australia.

Celebrating its tenth consecutive year, the Liquid Architecture sound festival returns to Cairns with an exciting program of contemporary sound arts. With a decade of experience to draw upon, the diverse program features live events and installations showcasing the highest quality sound work in an intense focused listening environment, privileging our most unsung sense, listening.

The breadth of diversity of artists and artistic practices includes meticulous recorded work, spontaneous improvised instrument performance, new sound for screen work, radical uses of digital technology, inventive self-made sound making devices, historically informed practices, and established artists appearing alongside emerging artists.

The Cairns program features the vibrant line-up of Perlonex (Ger), Soddell/Caddy (Melb) and Submerge 3 (Return Return, Nigel Perera & Bitcloud).

The electro-acoustic trio Perlonex was founded in late 1998 and has performed and toured in Europe and North America extensively since then. Ranging from prominent contemporary music festivals to underground noise/punk clubs, from art galleries to obscure improv backrooms the wide variety of venues they have played marks out the musical spectrum of the group.

Through the interplay and friction of gradually shifting layers of sound, sonic interferences, interwoven loops and hidden repetitive structures Perlonex is plumbing the depth of a rather complex sound material.
