Information

bio

David Kendall is from Los Angeles. David Kendall's musical practice makes use of the logistics of collaboration, as well as digital and analog audio synthesis. The goal is to interface discrete components together to create organic systems, where each part feeds in to others to create an interconnected whole. The presented sound is unitary, highly unstable and often unpredictable. Each discrete element tends to have the power to alter the overall sound dramatically, based on changes to the elements.

David Kendall's compositions have been performed in Southern California, at the California Institute of the Arts, Cold Storage, and at Il Corral.

Notable performances include Noisy Night, presended sy SASSAS, 2007. The Seattle Improvised Music Festival, 2006. The Spring Reverb Festival, San Diego, 2005. The CEAIT festival, Los Angeles, 2005. The Line Space Line Festival of Improvised Music, 2004. The Olympia Experimental Music Festival 2003.

David Kendall has released recordings in the United States and Japan, on the Set-Projects, EMR, Bastardised, P-Tapes, Anarchymoon, Helicopter, Gameboy and Alienation labels.
