I spoke with WBEZ about this unusual musical system that I built from glass vessels that listen, respond, and become active participants in a performance. The interview is expected to air sometime Monday morning, September 28, and I’ll share the broadcast link as soon as it becomes available.
I’m deeply grateful to the extraordinary collaborators who have helped me bring this project to life. Of course, Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory, where I spent a year in residence working with the greatest minds in physics to come up with this idea. Also extremely grateful to Todd Johnson, Brad Robin, Civitas Ensemble, and Timothy McAllister. Their artistry, curiosity, and willingness to venture into unfamiliar territory are at the heart of In Sympathy.
