The IMA and Room40 present Mono 37 with Merzbow at The Old Museum. For the past four decades, Japan’s Merzbow has reigned supreme as the undisputed king of noise. The project is the brainchild of avant-garde musician and writer Masami Akita, who has released hundreds of recordings that chart a cosmos of intensity and vibrant chaos. Live, Merzbow’s sound works are all-consuming, creating a uniquely physical sonic environment in which the audience’s bodies are enveloped. Don’t miss your chance to hear and feel Merzbow in this special offsite edition of Mono.

Mono is the IMA’s longstanding program of experimental sound curated by Lawrence English of Room40. Experience the expansive world of sonic experimentation and boundary-pushing performance in Brisbane/Meanjin through an integration of diverse sound materials and practices.
