Join us for the inaugural season of the <SOS> Sound Series, co-curated with Buffalo’s own Adrian Bertolone (aka Ay Fast). This event features a double bill with live performances by Meridian 7 and Patrick Cain. The event begins with with a hands-on homemade synthesizer demonstration by Meridian 7 followed by audio and visual performances from both artists.

About Meridian 7
Meridian 7 (NYC) is a solo artist project based in Brooklyn, New York. Her live audio/visual performance of Tone/Vacant Level retrofits obsolete switchboards into audio synthesizers. The piece, completed during a recent residency at Harvestworks Media Art Center, explores the sonic terrain of analog switching networks punctuated with rhythmic signal pulses, crosstalk, static, messages between the wires. The event will include a hands-on demonstration with the homemade synthesizers. Visit website!
