Mindcast.54 || PLO.
With issue fifty-four, we travel deep into the realms of live improvisation with PLO, the pool lab orchestra. Initiated by Dr.Nojoke as part of POOL Berlin back in 2013, this ensemble of electronic musicians undertakes fully improvised jam sessions utilizing a wide array of hardware and software-based instruments. The core philosophy is simple yet challenging: there are no predefined roles or rules. Every session starts with a completely blank sheet, encouraging free expression and experimental musical interaction from scratch.
