Noise music for the eyes. A 6 screen 16mm projection performance of intense audio and visual stimulus.
A Performance exploring the nature of acousmatic listening; sound removed from visual context and understood for it’s own properties.

For day two of Ultra-red’s project, the investigation will take up protocols for listening to the sound of freedom composed and facilitated by the Vogue’ology collective.
Coming to us from Taipei, Yo-Yo sends us elsewhere while bringing us back with her to the timezone of tomorrow. A dancer, media artist, and choreographer who makes multi-dimensions and realms, Lin’s amplification of energies and connections across bodies devolves the separations we are taught to abide.
