November is home to multiple interventions by The Platform For Extratonality. During this intermediate music event we welcome QOA and Primeiro, two artists with a tendency to enthrall through elemental improvisations.
QOA, is the monikor of Nina Corti, an experimental electroacoustic musician, sound and visual artist from the Argentine and Latin American experimental contemporary music scene. Their sound is characterised by the collage of field recordings in natural environments and their multiple transformations, combined with spoken word, live sampling, drones, synthesis and frequency rhythms, creating an extended listening experience. Qoa is part of AMPLIFY Digital Arts Initiative (Amplify D.A.I), international network of artists from Argentina, Canada, Peru and the UK, supported by Mutek and British Council. This year they was one of the 8th Latin American artists selected for Nicolas Jaar's Ladridos project.

Primeiro blends experimental electronics with samples of acoustic instruments and field recordings made by him, exploring the dynamic relationship between sound and territories. He develops intricate soundscapes with multiple layers that evoke a sense of tranquility and meticulous craft. Additionally, he organizes the Feed the River festival, which explores our connection with water bodies as sentient entities requiring our care and nurturing, and the use of sound to foster meaningful transformative dialogues.
This event is made possible with the kind support of Popunie Rotterdam, Stichting Volkskracht, Fonds Podiumkunsten, Gemeente Rotterdam and Stimuleringsfonds Creatieve Industrie.
