This iteration of the Blanton’s acclaimed SoundSpace music series draws inspiration from the much-anticipated exhibition, "Come as You Are: Art of the 1990s." The program aims to examine parallels between music and the exhibition’s main themes of identity politics, the Internet revolution, and globalization.
"SoundSpace: Music of the 1990s" will feature an array of post-minimalist works and improvisers from the acclaimed No Idea Festival. The program will also explore telematic music – pieces that use a live Internet stream to coordinate musicians in remote locations – and works that involve audience participation designed for an ensemble of boomboxes.
