Got word about an upcoming show in the Phoenix, AZ area - if you're in the neighborhood it definitely seems worth checking out:
THE GROVE was designed by artist Sean Duffy as a chaotic, interactive, aural/visual/tactile experience to address the current state of sound bleed, or the lack there of due to isolating technologies such as the iPOD and sound proof interior car environments, in our society. How will this generation find creative inspiration, such as the HipHop artists of the early 80s living in NY found, if they are not influenced by the active sound bleeds of their environments?
b3 is excited to bring our DJ perspective to this unique environment. Without the use of DJ mixers or monitors, we will create a unique musical statement utilizing beats and both natural and urban sounds. With 6 DJs, 18 turntables and 400 speakers, b3 will present our reaction to Sean Duffy's artistic vision on 9/25 at 7:30pm at the ASU Art Museum.
b3 IN THE GROVE as a performance is an interpretation of living in a multifaceted environment. Our modern existence is defined simultaneously by clashing urban and natural elements, and this is reflected in THE GROVE as an art piece. We are inspired by the installation, and look forward to demonstrating our ideas within it.
