[Capdist-announce] EMPAC presents SUSCEPTIBLE CHAMBERS world premiere April 5

[TeBordo, Kathryn]

EMPAC at Rensselaer invites Capital District Theater audiences to the world premiere performance of SUSCEPTIBLE CHAMBERS by Antonia Barnett-McIntosh & Jessie Marino, Friday, April 5 at 8PM. Presented in EMPAC Studio 1—Goodman Theater on the campus of RPI, in Troy, NY.

The newest production from composer-performers Antonia Barnett-McIntosh and Jessie Marino collects technologies from bygone eras—pulley systems, pianolas, needlepoint, sodium vapor lamps—and places them in conversation with bespoke handmade and electronic objects.

"If music can be thought of as meaningful time, then Antonia and Jessie's literal musical playground also creates a meaningful space. SUSCEPTIBLE CHAMBERS is an invitation to discover novel ways to look at, listen to, and experience music through their wildly fanciful, droll, and exacting vision."
—Music curator Amadeus Julian Regucera, from “The Discipline of Play”

“Composers Jessie Marino and Antonia Barnett McIntosh have explored how everyday sonic experiences are transformed through media and performance. Marino’s seriously playful theatrics reframe familiar sounds (like radio static) through repetition and video. McIntosh thoughtfully amplifies the musicality of language, listening, and conversation.”
