Debut OTO show for American composer and guitarist, Kieran Daly, whose work has a concentration in experimental monophonic music. His work focuses on a skeptical, first-principles approach applied across multifarious formal contexts using iterative processes, microtuning and sliding, and pulse salience as morphological determinants. Some of his prolific output has been presented by CHIMEFest, Issue Project Room, Liverpool Biennial, Madacy Jazz, Museum of Modern Art, Poetry Project, Pioneer Works, Pitchfork, Segue Foundation, Triple Canopy, and Wire Magazine.
Luciano Maggiore is a Palermo-born, London-based musician whose work is characterised by the use of speakers and several analogue/digital devices (samplers, CD players, walkmans, tape recorders) as well as acoustic objects and addresses the performativity of the musical act, the perception of it, and the obscurity that emanates from it.
His main interests include mechanisms of sound diffusion, performance, repetition, endurance, non-human animal languages, dance, and folklore.
