Ten years on Liquid Architecture, has grown into one of Australia’s most significant festivals with a national touring program of concerts, installations and forums.” (Gail Priest, RT91) In 2009 to celebrate the 10th edition of Liquid Architecture we published a brief archive highlight. To co-incide with LA’s 13th year, the archive has been updated to include all reviews of the festival since 2002, a comprehensive record of this leading music event.

In an interview in 2009 he said collaboration was the secret to success: “One of the key things for me is the team of curators. When we were a Melbourne-only event there were a number of people I worked with [Bruce Mowson was co-director 2001-4, Camilla Hannan 2001-2] and now that it’s a national event I rely heavily upon the people in the other cities for input” (RT91). The 2012 festival has taken this collaboration to the next level as Bates takes a back seat while Philip Samartzis and Lawrence English curate the entire festival around the idea of an “Antarctic Convergence” (see preview in RT109). Dave Brown and Lukas Simonis, Liquid Architecture photo Sebastian Avila Most years RT has offered multiple reviews in order to cover the festival in its several locales and offer different perspectives on the artists and their performances over the touring schedule. To celebrate the 10th festival individual city-based reviews were augmented with an overview by Jared Davis who travelled with the crew, and in a pull-no-punches article asked difficult questions about the role of the festival a decade after its inception (see RT93 “listening for change”). If the density of coverage is overwhelming here are a few suggestions. Read about Bernard Parmegiani playing in Melbourne during LA4 in "liquid architecture: the parmegiani experience", an event which Nat Bates remembers as his “number one highlight." A duet by Clayton Thomas and Jim Denley, "sound bodies", stands out as writer Tony Osborne’s “highlight of the week” when he sampled Sydney’s LA7. Recalling LA9, "sounds solid, sounds fluid", Gail Priest nominates not one but “two outstanding performances”, those of festival director Nat Bates and Marcus Schmickler;; the latter's creation “powerful, verging on spiritual, with no drugs required.” And covering LA12 in Melbourne Matthew Lorenzon probes the role of performativity in his review, “reciprocity between sounds.” RT www.realtimearts.net/feature/Archive_Highlights/10720 2/4 7/19/13 RealTime Arts - Magazine - Special Feature - liquid architecture (updated) liqu id arch itectu re 1 3 antarctic reveries greg hooper: liquid architecture 13, brisbane RealTime issue #110 Aug-Sept 2012 pg18 sonic antarctic liquid architecture 13: antarctic convergence RealTime issue #109 June-July 2012 p34 liqu id arch itectu re 1 2 reciprocity between sounds matthew lorenzon: liquid architecture 12, melbourne RealTime issue #104 Aug-Sept 2011 p44 listening up gail priest: liquid architecture 12, sydney RealTime issue #104 Aug-Sept 2011 p45 liqu id arch itectu re 1 1 the accidental audist greg hooper: liquid architecture 11;; urban jungle, brisbane RealTime issue #98 Aug-Sept 2010 p46 sound art+/-performance simon charles: liquid architecture 11, melbourne RealTime issue #98 Aug-Sept 2010 p47 liqu id arch itectu re 1 0 listening for change jared davis: reflections on liquid architecture 10 RealTime issue #93 Oct-Nov 2009 p52 architectural meltdown tony osborne: liquid architecture 10, sydney RealTime issue #92 Aug-Sept 2009 p48 sound, image & their ghosts greg hoooper: liquid architecture 10, brisbane RealTime issue #92 Aug-Sept 2009 p48 the art of sonic curation chris reid: liquid architecture 10, melbourne RealTime issue #92 Aug-Sept 2009 p49 sounds continuous gail priest: interview with nat bates, liquid architecture 10 RealTime issue #91 June-July 2009 p46 liqu id arch itectu re 9 depends on where you sit chris reid: liquid architecture 9, melbourne RealTime issue #87 Oct-Nov 2008 p46 sounds solid, sounds fluid gail priest: liquid architecture 9, Sydney RealTime issue #87 Oct-Nov 2008 p48 laidback listening to sounds concrete & chaotic joel stern, liquid architecture 9, brisbane RealTime issue #86 Aug-Sept 2008 p43 sonic interiors simon charles: liquid architecture 9, melbourne RealTime issue #87 Oct-Nov 2008 p47 liqu id arch itectu re 8 www.realtimearts.net/feature/Archive_Highlights/10720 3/4 7/19/13 RealTime Arts - Magazine - Special Feature - liquid architecture (updated) sound in mind and body chris reid happily imbibes liquid architecture 8, melbourne RealTime issue #81 Oct-Nov 2007 p45 sounds seen & worded greg hooper at liquid architecture 8, brisbane RealTime issue #80 Aug-Sept 2007 p51 sonic extremeties gail priest embraces liquid architecture 8, sydney RealTime issue #81 Oct-Nov 2007 p46 liqu id arch itectu re 7 sound bodies tony osborne: liquid architecture 7, Sydney RealTime issue #75 Oct-Nov 2006 p53 sounds improbable, sounds remarkable joel stern and danni zuvela at brisbane’s liquid architecture 7 RealTime issue #75 Oct-Nov 2006 p54 confined and released chris reid: liquid architecture 7 RealTime issue #75 Oct-Nov 2006 p54 liqu id arch itectu re 6 celebrating sound gail priest: liquid architecture 6 RealTime issue #68 Aug-Sept 2005 p49 tropical liquid architecture jennifer teo: liquid architecture 6, cairns RealTime issue #69 Oct-Nov 2005 web liqu id arch itectu re 5 instrumental explorations danni zuvela: liquid architecture 5, brisbane RealTime issue #63 Oct-Nov 2004 p48 drum mutations greg hooper: liquid architecture 5, brisbane RealTime issue #63 Oct-Nov 2004 p50 liqu id arch itectu re 4 qbfm:liquid architecture greg hooper: liquid architecture 4, brisbane RealTime issue #58 Dec-Jan 2003 p43 liquid architecture: the parmegiani experience simon sellars: liquid architecture 4, melbourne RealTime issue #56 Aug-Sept 2003 p46 liqu id arch itectu re 3 substantial echoes jonathan marshall: liquid architecture 3 RealTime issue #50 Aug-Sept 2002 p7 © RealTime ;; for permission to reproduce apply to [email protected] Tweet Like Back to top code + design by airstrip additional code + maintenance netpraxis www.realtimearts.net/feature/Archive_Highlights/10720 4/4
