Naarm’s newest face of the electronic scene - a collective that appreciates and celebrates the nexus point of electronic music and various mediums of art. bitter ivy celebrates the performative, artistic flair of electronic music, maintaining a focus on hardware based live sets alongside DJ sets; accompanied by live art installations curated by local artists. bitter ivy draws inspiration from the free moving dance-floor of the European underground scene, with an emphasis on the dance-floor atmosphere rather than the performance itself — severing the divide between audience and artist. A ban of phone, cameras, videography and any form of visual multimedia cultivates an atmosphere whereby the audience moves as one, void of modern surveillance.
