His written work centers on a diagnostic exploration of electronic music through considerations of applied metaphilosophy and his own experiences of reasoning through synesthesia. As Speaker Music, Brown, Jr. has released three albums on Planet Mu. His debut book Assembling a Black Counter Culture (2022) was published by Primary Information. In 2023, he co-curated HOPE at Museion (Bolzano), the concluding exhibition in the TECHNO HUMANITIES trilogy. Brown’s work has been presented at institutions including the Venice Biennale Musica 2025, Haus der Kulturen der Welt (Berlin), Paris+ par Art Basel, Somerset House Studios (London), and Performa Biennial (New York). He has taught and lectured at Simon Fraser University, NYU, The New School, Harvard, Brown, and Princeton. Recent collaborations include metanarrative liner notes for Cybotron, Drexciya, and Dopplereffekt developed with Detroit techno pioneers Juan Atkins and Gerald Donald with Berlin club/record label Tresor.About Animistic BeliefsAnimistic Beliefs are inventing a new, creole musical language. The Rotterdam-based duo repurposes forms from IDM and Global Club to create exhilarating hybrids, applying a fresh perspective that is both deeply personal and political.‘Animism’ is the idea found in indigenous belief systems that all objects, creatures and places possess a spiritual essence. Pre-colonial thought, traditions and music connected with Marvin’s Moluccan and Linh’s Vietnamese-Chinese heritage are key inspirations and tools through which the duo explore their experience as queer POC living in the Netherlands.Driven by tireless technical, historical and emotional research, Animistic Beliefs is a constantly evolving art project. By celebrating and unifying a diverse set of countercultural influences, the duo is challenging the expectations of European techno to make the kind of art that leaves a mark, whether in a gallery or behind a wall of haze and strobes.SAVE THE DATE:Emily Carr University of Art + Design - Integrated Motion Studio520 E 1st AveEntrance from Wilson PlazaWednesday, November 19Doors: 6:30 PMEvent Starts: 7:00 PMTICKETSBy donation$15 SuggestedTicket link in bioThis event is one of five events part of Notebook Season 2025.‧₊˚♪ ?₊˚⊹♩ ♪ ♫ ♬ ♩ ♪ ♫ ♬ ♪ ♫ ♬‧₊˚♪ ?₊˚⊹This project is presented in partnership with Chapel Sound Art Foundation, Roundhouse Community Arts & Recreation Centre, Indie Fest 2025 | re:Naissance Opera, and Resonance | Emily Carr University Art + Design with support from Canada Council for the Arts, Creative BC, BC Arts Council, the Province of British Columbia, City of Vancouver Arts, Culture and Tourism, Vancouver Civic Theatres and DVBIA.
