It’s been quiet.
Since this summer.

What can we do?

We decided to meet on the coldest night.

Exchange:: Gather:: Listen::
Monday, Jan 21 2019
8pm
::
Fridman Gallery Media Room (Basement)
169 Bowery, NYC
:
This is the first iteration of a new series of informal gatherings focussed on multi-channel works and spatial sound. We’ll be listening to some past CT::SWaM works over an 8-channel system and discuss ideas for moving forward:: ▶︎
:
This could become a regular platform for exchanging ideas, for listening to contemporary and historical pieces, hosting presentations, demos, talks and workshops, and for developing an ongoing discourse around spatial sound.
:
The basement at Fridman is conceived as a media space, and will allow for regular sessions without much setup effort. And that’s as far as the idea goes, so far. This first session is thought as an opening, a sensing of interest, a call for participation, an act of vulnerability, rather than the launch of a finished product, ready for consumption.
:
Please join if you can!
