Featuring old favourites, new music and rare tracks from the last ten years, this collection finally proves just how an integral a force the sock monkey has been all this time. In keeping with the idea of the comp, rik looks forward to playing re-imagined work that will appeal to new and old fans alike. This performance will also be accompanied by video by the brilliant and talented Sarah Grant who has created work for a number of previous mara's torment performances. If you can only see one mara's torment show this year, this is surely the one you want to see. . 9.30 . Akumu . After a recent break from live performances, Toronto's Akumu (aka Deane Hughes) returns to THE AMBiENT PiNG bringing his brand of atmospheric ambience, shadowy beats and minimal electronic manipulations. Formed as a solo project in 2000, Akumu has released three full-length albums on his own Spider Records label, a split CD with Andrew Duke on Cohort Records as well as various compilations and net tracks. Akumu has performed live across Ontario and Quebec, including 2005’s Mutek festival in Montréal, and features projections of his distorted photography, animated collages and 2D/3D video experiments. For this performance at the PiNG, Akumu will be creating an eerie, flowing soundscape that draws on new material from his upcoming solo EP and from 2006's Cohort release. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
