Series: Chris Brown
My curatorship will focus on live electronic music, especially on ensembles that can include both electronic and acoustic instruments. My series of workshops and concerts will culminate in a mini-festival of live electronic music featuring active electronic music composer/performers from the West Coast. Acts will include electronic improvisation and network music ensembles, live-coding sessions, and interactive acoustic/electronic music and sound installations.
