NonSeq: Tavaglione/Castillo/Quiet Eyes of Air
$5-$25 sliding scale; in advance or at the door
- Breana Tavaglione, sound art
- Matt Camgros, percussion
- Laura Luna Castillo
- Quiet Eyes of Air
Composer/sound artist Breana Tavaglione will present a new work for electronics and live instrumentation, featuring percussionist Matt Camgros.
Artist/composer Luna Castillo will create an audiovisual exploration of mnemonic patterns against entropy combining sampling, algorithmic sound processing and synthesizers. Inspired by the mechanisms of the brain to identify, classify and recall patterns of familiarity, a series of audiovisual algorithms are used to extract data medians and averages, compressing and dilating personal, appropriated and imaginary memories.
Quiet Eyes of Air (Alissa Derubeis and Yasi Perera) will present "Guard Less," a triple cancerian presentation based on allowing connection in all of its beautiful complications and consequences. Alissa and Yasi will play modular synths affected by the movements of Em Jones.
Curated for Nonsequitur's NonSeq series by Afroditi Psarra.
