Ollie Cox & Zela Papageorgiou
Existing in the liminal space between improvised and composed music, percussionists Ollie Cox and Zela Papageorgiou explore the vast textural possibilities of electroacoustic percussion. The two will be joined by Arabella Frahn-Starkie who will be projecting live visuals.
Ollie Cox is a Melbourne-based drummer, percussionist, improviser and composer. His broad textural palette, sensitivity and creativity at the drum kit has led to him working with some of Melbourne’s finest musical artists. Ollie blends his background as a jazz drummer with explorations in indie folk, art rock and electroacoustic experimental music.
Zela Papageorgiou (she/her) is a Naarm/Melbourne-based percussionist whose practice focuses on contemporary, classical and experimental music. She is an enthusiastic contributor to Melbourne’s music scene, regularly appearing with ensembles such as Speak Percussion and Ad Lib Collective, and is the core percussionist for Forest Collective.
Structures of Change play music inspired by the poetry of Ben Lerner, living close to train lines, and the intersection between friendship and inspiration. This group, led by Iran Sanadzadeh, uses noise spectra as a bed of possibility from which timbres arise. The sounds of the instruments blend and hide within each other’s textures so that the unity of the final texture transcends individual utterances of events. The final goal is to give a sound that is industrial, filthy and a bit cute.
