An evening of new music by three groups of musicians who combine sampled and electronically altered sounds with live processed music and interactive video; Annie Gosfield, Daniel Carter.

Annie Gosfield is a New York-based composer dubbed "a one woman Hadron collider” by the BBC, and "a master of musical feedback" by the New York Times. Gosfield has created site-specific work for factories, researched jammed radio signals, and composed opera, chamber, and orchestral music. Recent projects include the multi-site opera War of the Worlds with Yuval Sharon, Sigourney Weaver, and the L.A. Philharmonic; a song cycle adapted from the opera, titled The Secret Life of Planets: Heavenly Bodies and Earthly Gossip premiered by the LA Phil; Detroit Industry, a large-scale chamber work inspired by and performed under Diego Rivera’s murals; and a residency sponsored by the League of American Orchestras.
