Exploring the intersection of written and musical practice, the presentation will unpack the project's 'diagnostic exploration of electronic music at the end of the music industry', asking: what comes after techno? How do we imagine new models of the music studio and of distribution, and how might these feed back into ways of capturing and assessing the sonic profile of technology today?



Brown, Jr invites audiences into the processes behind the work, offering a preview of his project as it's shaped in residence at Somerset House Studios.

DeForrest's research during his one-month London residency will inform a new live work to be premiered at Assembly, Somerset House Studios’ biannual experimental sound, music, and performance series, in March 2026.
