Nicola Hein and Viola Yip (Berlin, New York, Hong Kong) Wednesday 16
Transsonic (Hein and Yip) is an experimental transmedial duo that creates immersive site-specific performances and installations bridging the vibrations of light and sound, trained as musicians, both look into the ontology of sound and how musical experience can be transformed beyond its common material—sound, for their artistic research project Transsonic, they explore light as an expanded musical material, they research and create performances, improvising between lights and sounds as equally important but dialectical musical materials, for this concert, the duo is creating a new piece for lights and electronics that incorporate our bodies as part of the circuit

Kit Fitzgerald (New York) A Video Event Monday 21
Video is my instrument and my orchestra; my images are literal, poetic, performative, expressive, the work is grounded in the tactile, my approach is along the lines of wabi-sabi, influenced by European painting and by my experience with Asian approaches - from early collaborations with Nam June Paik, residencies in Korea and Tokyo, and yoga; I like to create beauty in a chaotic world; beauty is truth, but sometimes the truth is painful www.kitfitzgerald.com
Davidson Gigliotti (New York and Venice) A Video Event Tuesday 22
In the late 70s, better cameras and better cassette decks were making the move to television for single channel video art a real possibility, I was taping a lot of performance art in those days, I had a good studio, decent equipment, and some idea of how to go about it and my friend Jean Dupuy was at the heart of a distinctive style of New York performance art; the artists he championed, Joe Lewis, Tim Maul, Michael Smith, Julia Heyward, to name just a few, performed regularly in the Grommet shows staged in his Broadway loft, it was Jean’s wish that some of these performances should be recorded, it was my idea to try to put them on TV
Jen Morris (Montreal, Lausanne) Wednesday 23
Sometime Lausanne-based Montrealer sound artist collaborates with west-coast analog media maker Alex MacKenzie for an apartment-sized sleight of hand, all curtains and mirrors, an uncanny amalgam of susurrus sonic somnambulism born of bespoke instruments combined with phosphenic photochemical fabulations on Super 8 and 16mm, featuring Morris’ homemade invention - the “Pivophone”, an instrument built of pine cones

Ulrich Krieger and Carl Stone (LA, LA and Japan) Friday 25
Ulrich Krieger (winds) and Carl Stone (computer) triangulate with EI from California and Tokyo, as they lob the musical data back and forth over the uncharted depths of the information highways, recursively and relentlessly processing each other

SYNOPSIS: Updates and presentations from the 3D audio community, a celebration of Michael Gerzon, live musical performances. Hosted by Charlie Morrow.
Event Details:
International Planetarium Society (IPS) Immersive Sound Committee, in association with IMERSA, and Audio Engineering Society (AES) invite you personally to
immerse! an online event
Featuring: Brian Katz, Anna Green, Pat Thomas, Phil Minton, Patty Seaton, Gilad Keren, Monica Bolles, Dan Neafus, Ian McLennan, William David Fastenow, Chris Plunkett, and Timo Bittner
Produced by: MorrowSound & Park Boulevard Productions
Mark your calendars! On March 20, 2022, we’re launching a new project. The first in a new series of streamed events--part music salon, part community platform--we’ll host presentations and performances from folks working in experimental audio, multidi- mensional sound, and extended listening.
The salon follows an annual tradition of its organizers in celebrating the equinoxes and solstices,1-2 events are pegged around these dates annually. This particular event launches Charlie Morrow’s “immerse!” podcast crafted with Bart Plantenga. The salon will feature a few pieces of music, including a world premiere by William David Fastenow, as well as academic updates and conversations related to immersive sound and will honor the ambisonic work of Michael Gerzon.
Vernal Periphony (world premiere) - Performance Notes
Several individuals and small groups throughout the world collaborate on this piece that pegs to both the ambisonic work of Michael Gerzon (particularly his incorporation of the Z/vertical axis, which he calls periphony) as well as the equinox (in which all of the inhabited world is aligned in near identical 12hr days / 12hr nights). The ensemble will play together in real time (despite disperate geography) via an online score and audio routed over the internet. A web streaming player/strategy will allow us to stream to the audience in multichannel audio, on 1-3 audience devices. The pieces will be mixed vertically, along the Z axis. The geographical latitude of each performer/small group is important to the piece, which correlates to both the vertical placement in the mix as well as how active the part is at specific times throughout the piece.
| Fastenow asks the audience to stream to three personal devices if possible, placing one on the floor, one up on a high shelf, and the other on their lap or a table in front of them.
