Laptop Acid Xperience
Roger Armstrong (aka Laptop Acid Xperience) has been making
electronic music in his spare time for the last twelve years and
short films for the last five but it is only recently with the
rapid advance in new audio and video technology that he has finally
been able to get the sounds and images out of his head and into
the world. Heavily influenced by his work in design, video
production and Asian cinema Roger is interested in the increasingly
strained links between technology and the organic.
This interest is reflected in C-Tronik, an audio visual collaboration
between Roger and the ultra reclusive Curtis E(mily) Butterfield
who provides an organic, luddite (and dark) influence on the visual
style of the project, manifesting itself as naturalistic video
clips sent via an untraceable email account.
Laptop Acid Xperience (LAX) is a solo project producing minimal acid
house exploiting ten years of collected samples and the latest audio
software.
Accompanying this audio excursion are visuals focusing
on the more mundane technological aspect of our lives mixed against
a surreal psychedelic backdrop.
