Guangzhou: Live Performance + ASM Workshop at MUSIXLIFE

This Friday, Dominic Au will return to MUSIXLIFE in Guangzhou for a special evening combining live electronic performance with a hands-on ASM synthesizer workshop.

The night will begin with a 20-minute live set using two ASM Leviasynth instruments and a modular synthesizer system, exploring the more atmospheric and evolving side of Dominic’s hardware-based performance setup.

The live set will be followed by a 40-minute workshop titled:

Exploring More Ways to Play a Synthesizer — Leviasynth & Diosynth

As ASM’s Director of Product and a co-designer of Leviasynth, Dominic will share both instruments from the combined perspectives of instrument design, sound design and real-world performance.

The Leviasynth section will explore how deep synthesis, sequencing and expressive control can become part of one continuous playing workflow.

For Diosynth, Dominic will approach the instrument from the perspective of a synthesizer player rather than a traditional wind player, demonstrating how breath, bite, joystick, pressure pads and motion can become part of sound design itself. He will also share some of the ambient-oriented sounds he is currently developing for an upcoming live performance.

Visitors will also be able to try Hydrasynth, Leviasynth and Diosynth in person after the presentation.
