Planetary Listening
About This Event
Planetary Listening at Reforesters Laboratory presents a lineup including Alan Lecheng Chao, Callosum, Cece Zhang, Eden Aurelius, Lydo, Metamyther, Purelink, Victoria Keddie, amita, and minus32heartbeat. The artists work in room-specific, performance-oriented electronics that favor careful pacing, timbral detail, and long-form textures over club spectacle. Several have treated Reforesters as an instrument, using real-time sound work and DJ practice to foreground space and subtle change.
