Iran Sanadzadeh: Ocean, Again
Date:Fri, 05/12/2023 - 7:30pm - 9:00pmLocation:CCRMA Stage / CCRMA LIVEEvent Type:ConcertPerforming on the Terpsichora Pressure-Sensitive Floors, an electronic instrument controlled by whole-body movement, Iran Sanadzadeh performs from her upcoming debut album, Ocean, Again. This performance uses the gestural vocabulary learned on the instrument to control a large number of sonic parameters with few controls. The sonic aesthetic, minimal in starting material, weaves dichotomies resulting from unintuitive mappings on the instrument to find new sound associations. This work wonders if between the embodied feeling of movement and sonic stasis, small actions and rapid change, new experiences of musical structure might be formed.FREE and Open to the Public | In Person + Livestream
Pre-show talk with the artist at 6pm
