TEDxWarwick - Jon Sterckx - Dhaginatak

Jon Sterckx is a UK based percussionist with over 20 years experience of world percussion. Drumscapes -- his solo multi percussion performance is a synthesis of traditional musicianship and contemporary live electronics. Defying genre, drums from India, Africa and the Middle East sit alongside vocal percussion and cutting edge technology, bringing traditional world percussion into the 21st century.
In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized.* (*Subject to certain rules and regulations)

It's beautiful. I see it as a music and mathematical algorithm that can be build into next level of music technology and bring creativity to next level.

What type of recording equipment and software is used.

[@largemouthbassman5628]

This is insane

[@TheMrRobothouse]

Almost shat myself

[@fiveteenyards]

It's ignorance like this that keeps people from actually enjoying music. embrace the technology and the musical possibilities it brings. The complexity of music does not have anything to do with the quality of it. Pardon my outburst, I just had to react on such an opinionated comment.

[@bootr0s]
