SUMMARY:Artists Against AI ft. Rad Pitt + Butterfly Handshake + Filip Rodak + Disjunction + Kinozolte
DESCRIPTION:All Tickets £8 / £7 concessions.Doors open 6.30pm\, first band on 7pm.This show is for a standing audience. \nA special evening dedicated to countering the deteriorating conditions for musicians and creatives\, caused by Artificial Intelligence systems. \nThe biggest threat to independent artists this year is AI music\, digital garbage that floods streaming platforms\, further decreasing the chance of real artists being heard and fairly compensated. The music industry is still heading in the wrong direction\, artists are being thrown to the bottom of the pile\, when they should be first. \nThis is an art industry\, but it’s become more about exploitation than expression. \nArtists Against AI is dedicated to changing that. For the first time ever\, six local acts will walk onto the stage at the Colchester Arts Centre and do something that AI can never do\, perform music for the greater good of humanity. \nRad PittColchester’s Rad Pitt have stayed true to their founding ethos since 2015: play fat riffs and keep it DIY. Throughout their time together\, they’ve churned out three albums and played many shows. From a Sunday morning opening set at Latitude festival\, to a set at ATG in a tent surrounded by a biblical rain shower\, to supporting some of the heroes of the underground scene including The St Pierre Snake Invasion and Alpha Male Tea Party. Rad Pitt are Colchester’s heavyweight champions of hard-core math rock. Now they are preparing to tear up the stage at Artists Against AI for two reasons\, A. to prove that the name “Rad Pitt” is self explanatory and\, B. to kick AI’s fake ass! https://www.instagram.com/radpittradpitt?igsh=N3JwMWRuMDcwbWNt  \nButterfly HandshakeButterfly Handshake are known more as a legend than a band\, but still they prove every time they take a stage that there’s a very good reason for that! Offering their a mix of both their original material and a blend of midwestern emo and cult rock classics\, Butterfly Handshake are one of the tightest bands to come out of Colchester in the last few years\, but have become increasingly rare due to it’s members finding huge success in other projects. Every Butterfly Handshake performance marks a unique point in cultural time\, and their performance at Artists Against AI is going to be very special indeed.https://www.instagram.com/butterflyhandshake?igsh=dnNucHNzOG42djEy \nFiliprodak (Kinlis)Filip has a unique talent for making electronic music that can make an entire crowd of people jump around. A wizard with a soundboard\, Filip’s presence can be felt from a mile off. He comes through to deliver an unforgettable performance at Artists Against AI\, that is not to be missed!https://www.instagram.com/filiprodakk?igsh=em1hNHYzOTFhM2Nk \nKinozolte Jack-of-all-trades soon-to-be megastar producer\, singer\, rapper\, and songwriter Kinozolte has played the Arts Centre before. Standing on stage with a microphone and a crowd full of people with their hands in the air in front of him\, he offered an exhilarating performance. Fresh off of the release of his new album “Ethereal Distortion”\, the name Kinozolte is on everybody’s tongue right now!https://www.instagram.com/kinozolte?igsh=cnl3MXRkN3pldWFh \nHenry BowenHenry Bowen cannot be described in one word\, and neither can his stage presence. Backed by a full band and a head full of ferocious rhymes\, Henry Bowen brings an animalistic energy to a show that offers a one-of-one experience every time. Performing songs off of his upcoming album “SPEEDBOAT MUSIC”\, his performance at Artists Against AI will be talked about for years to come. https://www.instagram.com/apology.not.included?igsh=dnM4NmphNGM4bW0w \nDisjunctionIf you are local to Colchester\, you must be living under a rock if you haven’t heard of Disjunction! Theo’s groovy slap basslines\, Ned’s on-beat drum rolls\, and Kai’s catchy guitar riffs are instantly recognisable. Disjunction always bring a party! Having recently released their self titled EP to much acclaim\, Disjunction usually offer a set full of their original music\, and maybe a few classics too. https://www.instagram.com/disjunction_band?igsh=MThiZnNwZjEydGtjYg==

SUMMARY:Collage workshop with Phill Jupitus (Several sessions throughout the day)
DESCRIPTION:In this one hour session you will create your very own collaged postcard using magazine and print media under Phill’s guidance. Expect a few laughs along the way. \nAll materials supplied but feel free to bring some collage materials if you wish.  \nA very limited number of free bursary tickets are available. Contact workshops@theminories.org to apply. \nAge 16+ \nThis will be held on the first floor and there is currently no lift. Please consider this prior to booking. \nAbout Phill JupitusPhill Jupitus drifted aimlessly onto national television in the mid 1990s after trying a number of different careers in the arts on for size. Unfortunately for him television was not that challenging\, quite comfortable and paid very well so there he remained until around 2019\, also along the way\, dabbling in film\, writing\, theatre\, music\, poetry and breakfast radio.  \nHaving started as a self taught cartoonist/designer in the early 1980s\, he had often wondered if perhaps he had missed out by not undertaking a formal arts education. So he enrolled on a BA course at Duncan of Jordanstone College of Art and Design in Dundee. Despite never completing the course he persists in making art to this day. He has been made an honorary Doctor of Arts by both Essex University and the University of Kent\, and lives on the East coast of Scotland with his wife and an overly demanding Labrador.
