Steve Dalachinsky & Carver Audain: The Etymology of Sound | Musical Ecologies
The 2013-14 season of Musical Ecologies continues Thursday, October 10 with a collaboration between poet Steve Dalachinsky and sound artist Carver Audain. Calling themselves Ban(ne)d Books, their duo was initiated in 2012 at a party, on a whim, and their performances merge Dalachinsky’s dynamic and enlivened readings with Audain’s contribution of spontaneous vocal processing and sonic textures. Their meetings nod towards mood aligning ephemera.
