Techno Echo is a monthly meet-up for women & gender minorities to learn and share about audio + visual practices and technology. Featuring special micro performances and demonstrations by local artists/musicians followed by time for kōrero and connection. Our special guest this May is hara.hara is Indonesian singer-songwriter Rara Sekar's solo project. Her music blends inspiration from folk with Indonesian traditional music, cinematic pop, ambient and field recording with a focus on exploring themes of ecology, vulnerability and politics. Her work is an interdisciplinary practice that is informed by Indonesian traditions and rituals, weaving music, social and cultural research and critical pedagogy in her recordings, writings and performances. She prefers to perform in quiet or outdoor/natural spaces but has performed at selected music and literary festivals such as Joyland Festival in Jakarta, Ubud Readers and Writers Festival in Bali, Makassar International Writers Festival, opening act for Japanese singer-songwriter Ichiko Aoba's Saison de Fleur's tour in Jakarta, Camp A Low Hum and Newtown Festival in Wellington, New Zealand.
[At the end of her Techno Echo session, she will hold the space for a 20-minute deep listening-open improvisation session. This session is an open invitation to anyone who wish to participate in any way, and for those who wish to join may also bring their own acoustic instruments along if needed]
