Dome Concerts presents: Catching Flies - visuals Julius Horsthuis

Electronic music under the starry sky

Catching Flies is the stage name of British musician George King. He combines electronic music with elements of hip-hop, house, jazz, and ambient. His music has something familiar and something alienating at the same time: deep bass tones, melodic layers, and rhythmic patterns that draw you in. With releases on labels such as Ninja Tune and Anjunadeep, he has built an international reputation. Artists like Bonobo, Diplo, and Nils Frahm have expressed their appreciation for his work.

Fractal art as a visual world

Julius Horsthuis is a Dutch fractal artist who creates digital worlds based on mathematical structures. His images are organic, endless, and sometimes almost meditative. For this performance, he translates the music of Catching Flies into moving images that fill the dome of the ARTIS Planetarium. This creates a spatial experience where sound and image reinforce each other.

The ARTIS Planetarium as a backdrop

The ARTIS Planetarium in Amsterdam offers a unique setting for a concert. The circular dome hall was built to immerse visitors in a larger whole. This makes it a fitting venue for an audiovisual performance like this one. Dome Concerts frequently organizes these types of events at unique locations. Are you interested?
