Opening night will feature an artist talk by Steve Norton on his composition Requiem and a live performance of Luciano Chessa’s installation #ooffoo #ffooff.
Installations include works by
Luciano Chessa , #ooffoo #ffooff, an interactive installation which merges the experience of traditional framed art with sound art.
Steve Norton, Requiem, an electroacoustic music composition whose topic is human-driven extinction and whose sound materia is of species which have gone extinct during the era of recorded sound, enabling us to hear them once again, ad aeternum.
Leslie Ross, water harp, a sound construction that uses a discarded electrical factory box, unused canning cans and the flowing Winslow Stream to excite strings. –Funded in part by a grant from the Maine Arts Commission, an independent state agency supported by the National Endowment for the Arts.
Walter Wright, a multi-media portrait, a site-specific quadrophonic sound and multi-channel video installation based on patterns and rhythms observed during his residency at the Cannery.
More installations will be added throughout the summer.
