hi.
this site shows the range of music and sound art projects that I have been involved in and gives news of things coming up soon. I hope you enjoy exploring it, and if you want to get in touch, the email address is andi (at sign) music (dot) freakout (dot) biz.
News, October 2011
things are a bit quiet at the moment, I'm trying to catch up with documentation and will be adding sound (and video!) as it becomes available.
Open Up North, Kendal
I was chuffed that one of the screenprints from the 'A Month of Sundays' installation (no. 4 of 8) was chosen to be in the inaugural Open Up North - an open exhibition of stuff from all over the north-west of England organised by the Brewery Arts Centre in Kendal. most of the exhibition is in the Brewery's galleries or in the Artisan cafe underneath Booth's supermarket, but the prints and photography are in the cafe at the Abbot Hall art gallery, so that's where my piece is. the exhibition's last day is Monday 10 November.

Framework : Afield
it took the best part of a year to do, but eventually I managed to assemble an hour of music for Patrick McGinley's Framework radio programme. Patrick (who records as murmer) has run this programme, which concentrates on field recordings and music made using them, for a number of years and it was great to be allowed to do one of the Framework : Afield programmes; this is the strand done by people who aren't Patrick, if you see what I mean. the broadcast (on London's Resonance FM and half a dozen others in Europe and the US) was in September, but the programme is streamable and downloadable from its page on the Framework website. the people who trusted me with their work were APM, Chris Atkins, John Aveyard, Shaun Blezard, Andrew Deakin, Dan Fox, John Hall, Rebecca Joy Sharp & Simon Whetham, Richard Skelton and Lisa Whistlecroft. they gave me some great pieces to use - do go and have a listen.
new things to hear
go to the Sounds page for two new pieces I have made recently - 'Spedber', a sound collage of Sedbergh, and 'Rush Hour', a time lapse piece condensing the sound of Sedbergh residents driving off to their jobs. go to the Andi Chapple & Musicians page for recordings from the May 22 gig in Preston.
thanks for your interest.
