For the 3rd edition of Nonagon Festival in Svanö, Sweden, REC and friends Oliver Jäggi and Gillian Wylde held a series of workshops and performance with microenergy circuits. For this year’s theme, “Currents”, REC proposed participants to “assemble and solder a custom ultra-low energy noise sysnthesiser, which you can use to uncover and sense wild electricity in your environments through sound. Investigate various microenergy sources and construct your own queer electricity generators along with the natural surroundings of the festival. Drop-in for rest and recuperation, make some noise, jam, hang out, have some tea, and dream about alternative energy futures for community flourishings and the ongoingness of the world…”.

The local newspaper Tidningen Ångermanland did a nice review of the festival, including brief coverage of REC’s presence. Available online here, and as PDF export here. Note that the final two photos from the festival included in our documentation of the event here were taken by the article’s author Gregor Flakierski.
