New Show Announcement: Fragmented Realities

Mnemosyne Quartet is excited to be working with Video Artist Eric Souther again! We will be collaborating for a show--Fragmented Realities--on November 5th, at La Esquina. Fragmented Realities is an immersive performance installation that utilizes eight-channel surround sound, and panoramic video projection, animating the architecture of La Esquina. Footage from Kansas City’s Union Station, Zoo, and Motor Speedway will be fed into a custom piece of software that uses lumakeying and pixel sorting paired with digital feedback to create repetitions into infinity. Eric will perform live using the gyroscopic sensor of his iPhone to manipulate the direction of the feedback, the level of zoom, and the rotation of the angle of each repetition in space. Mnemosyne will transport the sonic environments of these aforementioned locations through live manipulation of source recordings and guided improvisation that draws upon audible cues present in the performance space, transported elements, and the ensemble's own musical direction.
