Jori Ketten curates Inside Voices from 7/30 - 8/4. Set down what you carry. Lower your voice, raise your attention. Join these artists, selected for their practice as world-makers, as they take you on sensory excursions inside their environments. Gentle and sure, grounded and experimental, curious and complicated – each day will bring new experiences of gravity and wonder. — Jori Ketten
8/4: Geoff MullenI will be presenting a version of a new work that exists somewhere in between a musical performance and a sound installation. The work explores our heavily mediated experiences w/ the outside world, and chooses as its material a wide range of consumer-grade audio electronics that help us navigate this world. — Geoff Mullen
