Resonating Space is an evening of sound and visual scores by artists implementing various technologies, instruments and visions to produce real time performances. The resonant space series aims to highlight the sympathetic frequencies between varying approaches to sound and video in performance and installation based works. The event will feature performances and installations by the following artists.
Damian Catera (AV performance) - http://catera.net/
EOH v.2018 is an improvised intermedia performance where fragments of the works of JS Bach are appropriated, sliced, diced and algorithmically re-assembled into a new piece of music in real-time. The piece has both a sonic and visual component and is part of a larger series of works.
Active for over thirty years, Damian Catera explores the dynamic space between music, the visual arts and improvised performance.He has performed and exhibited internationally. In recent years he has performed at the Fridman Gallery, Clemente Centre and the Hayden Planetarium in NYC.
