TQC: Lulling Voices presented by A Quiet Transition project

Lulling Voice features 4 musicians/duo that explore and expand the format of lullaby either simply with their voices or voices and accompanying instruments. Each lullaby in the concert is an invitation to another emotional/narrative dimension. This concert is part of A Quiet Transition, an experimental, curatorial project that adopts lullaby as a framework to create contemplative and restful experiences.

SSSS! Second Sexing Sound Symposium: KINOSONIK with Frauke Aulbert and Seth Parker Woods

The Second Sexing Sound Symposium (SSSS!) is a series of public events in Chicago dedicated to ideas, research, performance, and conversation surrounding female and trans-identifying practitioners in and around the sonic arts.

Back for its third year, KINOSONIK is a collaboration between the Goethe-Institut, Experimental Sound Studio, and the Chicago Film Archives. This year, musicians Frauke Aulbert and Seth Parker Woods will collaborate to compose live scores for a selection of films curated and sequenced by CFA from their extensive collection. Aulbert and Woods were selected based on their substantive and exemplary artistic accomplishments to date, their commitment to risk-taking exploratory approaches to sound and music, their long-standing experience in collaboration, and their interest in integrating their various sonic approaches with moving image.
