Illuminated Music
About the Event
Project [BLANK], San Diego’s most innovative interdisciplinary music organization, will team up with Nick Lesley of Space Time for a concert of "illuminated music" featuring various methods of real-time image and sound manipulation. Central to the program is a screening of Studies by pioneering video artists Steina and Woody Vasulka. The concert will feature live musical performances and other video works that take inspiration from the Vasulkas’ early experiments in electronic image-making.
As the next installment of Project [BLANK]’s Salty Series, "SPACE TIME ART" is curated by local musician and media artist Nick Lesley and features live performances by Helixhand and Kevin Schwenkler. The program will begin with a screening of Steina and Woody Vasulka’s rarely-seen, Studies, a series of evocative short films created in 1970 and 1971 that employ the couple’s early experiments in digital and analog processing. Following the screening, multimedia artist Helixhand (Ash Capachione) will perform a live audio-visual piece using digital film, machine generated imagery, and animation in cobination with improvised sound loops and found audio samples. Musician and composer Kevin Schwenkler will follow with a musical exploration of a series of still images featuring live electronics and audio-modulated processing. In addition to the live performances, TV screens around the space will display electronic media works spanning several decades.
