SUMMARY:Downtown Berkeley Plaza Presents: The Soundscape Listening Party
DESCRIPTION:Please join us for a listening party for “Immersion\,” an immersive sound installation by Maggi Payne at Downtown Berkeley BART Plaza. \nSaturday\, September 21st from 8:30 pm-10:00pm. \n“Immersion-Bay Area Soundscape” is a discrete eight-channel installation using sounds of nature the artist recorded in the Bay Area over many years. The sonic environment this work creates is reminiscent of sounds that once likely existed in this very location-windstorms\, thunder\, rain\, streams\, a seashore\, underwater sounds\, frogs\, crickets\, and birds. “Immersion” follows water from storm to creek and ocean portraying nature’s water cycle\, which is so critical to the life of this planet. Sounds travel both laterally and through the four pairs of speakers\, providing an immersive experience for people standing still or traversing the space. For more information on the artist’s work visit www.maggiepayne.com. \nSample Work: Through the Looking Glass excerpt ©2015 Maggi Payne \n \nMaggi Payne is Co-Director (since 1992) of the Center for Contemporary Music at Mills College\, Oakland\, CA\, where she teaches recording engineering\, composition\, and electronic music.
