Solo's concert Goldsmiths
Published 14 May, 2012 by JT

So I think I have recovered from the news last week . Thank you to all who have written in twittered and posted great messages. The feeling was a bit like drinking 6 expresso's and floating unconditionally. It was pretty amazing.
This Saturday (19.5.12) I am in a great event organised by Tom Mudd at Goldsmiths University. It is a concert which just focuses on solo performances . Myself , marjolaine charbin (piano) and dimitra lazaridou-chatzigoga (zither) will be performing our works. The system is great, so please come along if you can , we need a good audience to fill the space.

Golden Nica : Prix Ars Electronica Crystal Sounds of a Synchrotron
Published 08 May, 2012 by JT

Hallo
I am so pleased to tell you that my work Crystal Sounds of a Synchrotron has won the Golden Nica in Prix Ars Electronica for Digital Music and Sound Art. This is a great honor and something, which I have always wanted to achieve.
The work was published on 5.1 DVD by Diamond Light Source the UK's largest Synchrotron in October 2011.

Ars Electronica Press Release
A synchrotron accelerates elementary particles to extremely high speed. One result of this is to produce a multifaceted, ever-changing cacophony. Jo Thomas concentrated on the injection of electrons. She captured and arranged micro-melodies that are as transient as the electron injections themselves. During this 38-minute work, the listener becomes completely absorbed, not least of all due to the 5.1. Sound that gets across the dry, almost sterile atmosphere with enormous compression.
