Open Space is pleased to welcome Kenneth Newby (Vancouver), with special guests Aleksandra Dulic (Vancouver), Martin Gotfrit (Vancouver), and Andreas Kahre (Vancouver), performing Saturday, October 29th at 8pm, and hosting a workshop the following day, Sunday, October 30th at Noon. This quartet of artists represents a musical, visual and collaborative friendship, opening and expanding the world of sound and vision in a trans-human sense; the previously unheard is made audible in a variety of forms of sonification and transposition. On this evening, at Open Space, the ear and eye will become the site of new perceptions that function to expand the range of sound and vision, their meaning and relationship to the physical, emotional, social, conceptual and ritual spaces in which they emanate.
