Techno Echo is a monthly meet-up for women and gender diverse people to learn and share about audio + visual practices and technology. Featuring special micro performances and demonstrations by local artists/musicians followed by time for kōrero and connection. Joining us as our guest artist for November is Techno Echo co-facilitator, Dream Chambers

Jess Chambers is a multifaceted musician working under the moniker Dream Chambers where she uses modular synthesizers and voice to create a sound recently described by The Nashville Scene as..." full of warm, organic emotion, alternating between tuneful musicality and raw, spiritual fervor". Initially known in Aotearoa as an APRA award-winning singer-songwriter Jess relocated to Nashville, Tennessee in 2012 where she encountered a vibrant underground electronic music scene and began a transformative journey into the world of synthesizers.

A seasoned performer, recent highlights include a tour of the US performing a live score of the 1920s classic vampire film 'Nosferatu' and a commission by Nashville-based classical ensemble Chatterbird to perform The Blossoming, a concert featuring six of her works expanded for flute, clarinet, violin, viola, cello, and harp, arranged by Pōneke-based composer Sonya Waters. Jess is currently based back in Aotearoa where she teaches music production, composition, and performance at the Massey University College of Creative Arts and co-facilitates Techno Echo at Pyramid Club


Hosted by Jess, Amber and Lora as part of Pyramid Club’s programme.
