March was a crazy month-- I opened shows in three galleries! One of them was the work of my students, and it came off beautifully.
Chicago Curates Columbia: Audio Arts and Acoustics is at the college's Arcade Gallery. The reception was April 2; the show runs through May 2.
Both of my classes created group projects. Inspired by visiting artist Eric Leonardson, students in one class made interactive sculptures which they amplified with hand-made contact microphones. The other class built small synthesizers that reacted to light, installing the circuit boards in a dark room with video projections to trigger the photocells.
