The Bent Leather Band (Joanne Cannon, contra-monster; Stuart Favilla, light-harp; and Dale Chant, extended guitar, invited me to improvise with them at the OZCHI conference at Melbourne Uni on Dec 10, 2015. We had all just given presentations at a panel discussion on new interfaces for musicians. Catherine was there with her cell-phone and grabbed this 4 and 1/2 minute excerpt from the proceedings, which were noisy, and a lot of fun.  I especially enjoy some of the audience interaction here. Stelarc, who had just given a lovely keynote address, is of course, documenting things, and I enjoy the statue of (is that?) Athena standing impassively behind us, or maybe she's doing a kind of extremely minimal post-modern dance.  (grin)  Here's the video:

Enjoy!
