Audiovisual arts festival L.E.V. expands its scale with new edition LEV Matadero taking place this October in Madrid.
LEV festival expands outside the breezy and beautiful shores of Gijon, Spain, and presents LEV Matadero - its first edition taking place in Madrid. The festival will take place from 17th till 20th of October and will occupy different spaces of the Center of Contemporary Creation. As usual with LEV, it will present a myriad of multidisciplinary experiences ranging from audiovisual shows to 3D retrofuturistic performances.
The artist list is equally colorful. Legendary IDM veterans of Warp label Plaid will present their Polymer audiovisual performance. James Ferraro will present a generative music composition together with digital artist Maotik. Morton Subotnick will revisit his legendary epic Silver Apples of The Moon with the help from Lillevan and Alec Empire. We will also hear digital etherealism of Aïsha Devi, fresh Volume Massimo program from Alessandro Cortini as well massive new Emptyset’s live performance. Experimental club music fringes will be explored by such innovators as Sega Bodega, Nkisi, Ikonika, Mr. Mitch etc. Eli Keszler will deliver some leftfield jazz fusion in his collab with Nate Boyce.
Vortex, the new section of the festival, will be dedicated to hybrid projects exploring the intersections of cinema, arts, technology, video games and electronic creations. It will further expand LEV’s fixation on multidisciplinary arts.
