Techno Echo is a monthly meet-up for women & gender minorities 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. Our special guest artist for August is Ducklingmonster.

Beth Dawson aka Ducklingmonster is an audio-visual artist from Onehunga, Tāmaki Makaurau, Aotearoa.

She investigates out of bounds areas through a range of practices focusing on community empowerment. Publicly her work has predominantly been in experimental sound performance, most notably in the group The Futurians, and solo as Ducklingmonster. Blatantly and happily ignoring the restrictions of media, she works in sound, ink, video, broken electronics, and whatever else takes her fancy. She is currently a PhD candidate at AUT with her practice-based research into a queer feminist elevating and valuing that which is temporary, collective, amateur, and improvised.
