Quarters (for 4 loudspeakers) Premiere of Quarters, a 4-channel, abstract, noise-based, tape piece originally conceived for presentation in separate but adjacent spaces. The audience can choose to hear individual parts in isolation, or with other parts at a distance, and move between the adjacent spaces without ever quite hearing a coherent whole at any one moment. Quarters will be featured in 'Abstract', a multi-channel loudspeaker presentation by Hear This Space, a collective of sound artists and composers who organise site sensitive, spatial sound events, at Leicester's Fabrika.
