Featuring music exclusive to the show, new music on Noise Manifesto and reinterpretations of her remixes, Temple constructs a sonic journey through post-industrial techno, apocalyptic soundscapes and absorbing melodies. Moving away from singular interpretations, the show moves towards a multiplicity of sound, environment, surface and form.

‘Designing Hope’ as a theme, as artists or as designers, is meaningless without action. Paula Temple and Paramount Artists will donate their fee for this show to Women-in-Exile, a non-profit organisation based in Berlin/Potsdam since 2011, who campaign for the safety of refugee women and children, fight for their rights to asylum, fight the hopelessness of deportations, and defend themselves against sexualized violence, discrimination and exclusion.

Only in taking action can we have any hope for the future.

About the Artists

Paula Temple

Activist, Artist, Musician

A self-confessed Noisician, Paula Temple obliterated 2014 with ‘Deathvox’, her second monumental release for the legendary label R&S. Her debut ‘Colonized’ EP made one of biggest statements in 2013 for uncompromising techno, followed by remixes for avantelectronic acts The Knife, Perera Elsewhere and Planningtorock.
Such refreshing highvoltage output has rapidly placed Paula Temple at the forefront of new techno.
Previously she released ‘Speck of The Future’ appearing on Jeff Mill’s ‘Exhibitionist’ album and techno vanguard Chris McCormack’s Materials label. In her early days, Paula Temple co-developed the innovative live performance midi controller MXF8, one of the first of its kind, which she took on the ‘Mind and Machine’ tour for three years.
Her HYBRID live/dj sets have become a sensation in such scene bastions as Tresor, Berghain and I Love Techno.
Her first full live AV show NONAGON with Jem The Misfit, set in 9 parts, was premiered at ADE 2014 receiving high acclaim. 2015 has already witnessed stellar performances at BLOC, Kozzmozz and London’s Convergence Festival, with a forthcoming mini tour of USA including two dates at Movement Detroit. A double remix for Fink has yet again demonstrated why Paula Temple is much sought after for remix productions. For her record label Noise
Manifesto she has just launched a very special and unique collaboration series called Decon/Recon with select showcase events only. Her third release for R&S Records is currently in production at the studio, plus a split release for a Berlin based label to be revealed later this year.
