Tuesday,
April 24 - Sunday, April 29
The King Street Theatre lobby, Kitchener, Ontario
Part of the Open Ears installation
series
The installation "STATES" is a collaboration between
visual artist Grace Kary and myself. STATES attempts to mimic
some of the psychological processes we associate with Freud's
theory of 'transference,' in which unconcsious traumas are projected
into the present as a means of freeing one's self of them. Video
and sound will work together to try and capture something of
the feelings we imagine this process evokes...
The version presented at the Open Ears festival will be followed
by a larger version later in the summer.
With thanks to the Waterloo Regional Arts Fund for their support. |

"Transmissions" (presented by Transonic Arts)
Transmissions will explore works which use “found sound”
– recorded sound like a bird chirping, a train passing by,
or speech. The program will look at how computer technology has
extended the definition of the term by allowing real-time recording
and alteration of musical instruments and ambient sounds. Trasmissions
will feature two multimedia sound installations, by sound artist
Jessica Feldman and composer Jonathan Zalben; a “composed”
radio documentary and a piece of concert music by composer/radio
producer Jonathan Mitchell; and two contrasting performances of
Jascha Narveson’s work 'Kaleidoscope' for improvising soloist
and computer processing. |

April 23 - May
1 - Zero To One Galleries, Kitchener, Ontario
a collaborative installation with Ian Newton will be presented in
his Zero To One Galleries space in Kitchener, Ontario as part of
the Open Ears Festival.
here's the description of the piece:
Creak Speak:
The Zero to One space has been the site of many of Kitchener's more
spontaneous and underground cultural events for the past 5 years,
from exhibits and readings to concerts, workshops and large multimedia
events. As an homage to a space which is loved by so many, local
artists Ian Newton (founder and director of Zero to One) and Jascha
Narveson have designed an installation piece which will put the
room itself on display. Complete darkness, twenty-two contact
microphones, several litres of phosphorescent paint, a multi-channel
computer processing system, and the fantastically creaky wooden
floor of the Zero to One gallery form the elements of this interactive
work. |
