Gillian Whiteley and Geoff Bright [the gathering…the chewing] have been part of Phil Morton’s weekly 50:50 online Blank Canvas Octet improvised music sessions since the first days of the lockdown in March 2020. Seventeen zoom sessions have taken place so far with the next live streamed session on Youtube on Wednesday 9th September 2020. Join us then and see/hear how we are working with the affordances and constraints of online platforms as a site for improvisation.
