A profound sensory journey to the frontiers of contemporary musical composition. Audience members are invited to sit or lie down, on comfortable cushions, in the completely darkened Edward J. Ray Theater. Surround, ambisonic and other creative speaker placements immerse listeners in experimental music – often featuring high-fidelity field recordings captured from the forest, ocean or everyday life.

Composer and Director of the School of the Arts Peter Swendsen hosts this unique program, which – in 60 minutes – includes contextualizing remarks and time to comfortably emerge from deep listening. Video installation may occasionally be included.
