CONVERGENCE 12

KROSS COLLECTIVE presents: CONVERGENCE XIII, an evening where sound, video, language & performance merge into shared terrain.

Opening the evening will be Kross Collective co-founder Days Like Television, presenting an enveloping A/V set of electronics, electric guitar, and found-footage visuals.

Following this will be DeeeVeee, a psychedelic-noise duo based between Berlin and Vilnius, who channel a raw and tactile sonic practice.

Closing the event will be HOTARU, a guitar and electronics duo formed by Tatsumi Ryusui (guitar) and Makoto Sakamoto (electronics), both members of the Berlin-based experimental noise band Noctiluca.

CONVERGENCE XII invites attentive listening, porous boundaries, and the quiet thrill of disorientation.

Days Like Television

Daniel Bryden is an experimental musician and video artist from Newcastle upon Tyne, currently based in Berlin. He releases music as Days Like Television.

Drawing on dissociated sound sources and fragmented textures, their work balances visceral intensity with a melodic, nostalgic beauty. The result is a practice that is affecting yet resists resolution—drawing the listener into a sonic encounter shaped by absence, erosion, and the aesthetics of disappearance.

He has presented live AV performances across Europe at venues such as ICA (London), Nalen (Stockholm), La Vallée (Brussels), Mayfield Depot (Manchester), ACUD MACHT NEU (Berlin), and VEKKS (Vienna). His debut album - ‘This Will Have Been the Past’ - was released June 2024 on Bonambi.

HOTARU

Derived from Noctiluca’s concept of layered colors and dense textures, HOTARU shifts the focus toward a more minimal and intimate sonic dialogue. Guitar harmonics and electronic sounds drift through space, occasionally flashing as sharp noise, slowly transforming like an evolving abstract drawing.

DeeeVeee

Two halves, one Mexican, one Lithuanian, join in the creation of DIY instruments, unique Frankenstein monsters of sound gear, which explore the powerful authenticity of radio transmissions, the manipulation of guttural voices recorded with contact microphones and layered through loop taping processing. A raw and deep construction of sounds and noises is the departure point for Deeeveee’s improvisation skills to travel beyond the boundaries of experimental and avantgarde noise.

Diana Fonseca (Deee-) is a sound designer and noise artist based in Berlin. Her work navigates between the human auditory and the microscopic, exploring how hidden sonic landscapes can be revealed and amplified.

Her practice includes small craftmashifts creating self-made electronic devices, playing with horn instruments, and broken machines. She utilizes these tools to construct immersive environments that challenge traditional listening, often transforming found objects and everyday sounds into textured compositions. Her practice is deeply rooted in the exploration of the non immediate realm, seeking out the subtle vibrations and micro details that exist just beyond our immediate perception.

Diana has an MA in Sound Studies and Sonic Arts from Berlin's University of the Arts (UdK) and a BA in Social Anthropology (ENAH).

Viltė Gustytė (-veee) is a Lithuanian multimedia artist and performer based in Berlin, whose work spans various disciplines, including installations, sound art, performance, and audiovisual arts. Her artistic research explores listening perspectives, field recording and counter-cartographies, often materializing through site-specific and collaborative projects.

She has presented sound installations at venues such as Collegium Hungaricum Berlin (2024) and Hosek Contemporary (2023), and co-created interactive works with Elena Kanarskaitė, including Rypavimai (2025) at Pamenkalnio Gallery, Desiring Machine (2023) at LDS Gallery, and Stay in the Mirror (2021) at Titanikas Gallery in Vilnius.

Viltė’s long-standing interest in public and environmental sound is reflected in projects like PlaySoundGround, a soundwalk developed with Simina Oprescu for the Klanglandschaften festival (2022), and the long-string installation Harmonic Arborealism together with Diane Barbé at Floating University Berlin (2021). She performs regularly in various musical projects (Eiswerden, DeeeVeee, Nojo Airlines) and co-leads the ongoing workshop-performance series A Fly Falls Into the Speaker (2024).

Viltė holds a Master’s degree in Sound Studies and Sonic Arts from the Berlin University of the Arts and a BA in Audiovisual Media from Tallinn University.
