An Evening of Light, Space and Sound was a live sonic/visual performance which transformed the façade of the Culver Center of the Arts into a large abstract space of color, light, and form. Through video projections, abstract imagery, and live sound compositions, the artists together blurred the distinction between public and private space while exploring new possibilities of live performance and art practice. In respect to Earth’s nearest celestial neighbor, the moon, the artists summoned its equinoctial presence through the projection of its abstracted form on a series of large weather balloons and again through musical improvisation. A sequence of three sound-art ensembles performed music exploring the realms of space and the immaterial in human language through amplified spatial arrangements and sonic improvisations.


Listen to our Lady Noise composition, Space.
