<P CLASS="MsoNormal"><SPAN>Hyphen Hub is directing the Arts Hub for Creative Tech Week and over two nights we will be showcasing some of the most innovative and interesting performers currently working in art and technology. For this first special night we feature four artists reimagining musical instruments through the use of analogue and digital technology and creating wondrous new audio-visual performances in the process.</SPAN></P>

For Hyphen Hub, she will showcase<EM> Lobatus</EM> an electroacoustic improvisation made with home-made gestural controllers, using repurposed technologies including wooden bowls, water, textured acrylic discs, blinking lights, and a blender!</P>
<P CLASS="MsoNormal"><A HREF="http://www.nadassor.net/" TARGET="_blank" REL="nofollow"><STRONG>Nadav Assor</STRONG></A><SPAN> is an artist who creates videos, installations, performances, and objects via lo-fi, appropriated military-industrial technologies. Assor will perform <EM>Tunneling</EM> - a site-specific event during which he attempts to gain access to the inner layers buried in the walls of the performance space The tunnel is constructed in real-time, layer by exposed layer, using a green-screen set, power tools, microphones and surgery-like safety gear. Assor utilizes techniques derived from the breadth of the military-industrial-entertainment complex: from tactical wall probes to domestic demolitions, from live esthetic surgery to interactive cooking shows.</SPAN></P>
