Hello List, First let me say that i damn excited i found this list. I really like the multi-genre aspect of it and people are really helpful. I am getting cozy with my echoplex and am getting ready for a show. I thought I would put the word out in case any of you were here in Chicago. It should be a really great event and it's free. More Info Below: Chicago Department of Cultural Affairs presents ohm Curator Series Featuring Margaret Noble and Edyta Stepien Tuesday, December 5, 7 pm Claudia Cassidy Theater @ Chicago Cultural Center, 77 E. Randolph St. Free admission Margaret Noble and Edyta Stepien will curate and perform a multi-media sound and video event modeled on reinterpretations of the classical music form, Sonata. Together several video artists and live electronic music performers will reinvent this classical concept. Performers include Laura Emelianoff, J.C. Loewe, Gregg Medley, Margaret Noble, Edyta Stepien, Jeffrey Weeter, and Video Janitor. Multimedia artist Jeffrey Weeter will perform "Pattern Portraits: Amsterdam" a series of works that explore traffic frequency and human interactivity utilizing sound and video collected in Amsterdam.

This acoustic duo includes Loewe on viola and Emelianoff on her self-constructed open harp. Video imagery is also provided by Loewe.
