thenumber46 is a flute and feedback duo comprised of Suzanne Thorpe on flute and electronics and Philip White on mixer-feedback. The duo explores feedback systems acoustically, electronically, visually and metaphorically in improvised exchanges. They create aural structures and poly-articulate constructs. They sound autonomous utterances and sonic dialog with each other and the spaces in which they perform. They have toured throughout the south and east coast, performing at galleries and venues including OK Mountain, Austin, TX, Redux Contemporary Art Studios, Charleston, SC, Monkeytown, Brooklyn, NY, The Stone, NYC, and the Pyramid Atlantic, MD. Their recording, Bleach & Ammonia, will be released November, 2009 on Tape Drift Records.
