Spectral Space - Kim Cascone

10 February 2007 | 8pm
Kim Cascone, solo performance
Video In, 1965 Main Street
$15 / $10

Spectral Space is a new computer music piece focused on extending density in audio material. In our age of media-overload the public has adapted to this condition by enlarging their ability to simultaneously consume multiple streams of information. With Spectral Space Cascone builds a foreground/mid-ground/background sound-field through which sounds glint, shimmer, collide and implode within the fabric of noise.

Each ... and Every Inch is a site-specific multi-media journey through different spaces, revealing the life of Canadian-born poet and novelist Elizabeth Smart, author of By Grand Central Station I Sat Down and Wept . Audiences begin their journey through Smart's life in guided groups of eight, and then are free to explore the installation at their own pace. With music, text, sound, visual art and video, Theatre Cryptic discovers the passion, obsession, destruction and seduction in Smart's work and in her life.
