Antonia Barnett-McIntosh & Jessie Marino: SUSCEPTIBLE CHAMBERS at EMPAC April 5, 2024
WORLD PREMIERE
It begins with the re-construction of a simple microphone.
EMPAC welcomes music, maker, and theater audiences to the world premiere of a new audio-visual production by Antonia and Jessie that is both whimsical and rigorously executed. Composed from manifold permutations of “extended” microphones, the composer-performers experiment with different microphone filters and casings as well as speakers, light, and color arrangements.
SUSCEPTIBLE CHAMBERS collects technologies from bygone eras—pulley systems, pianolas, needlepoint, sodium vapor lamps—and places them in conversation with bespoke, handmade, and electronic objects.
Antonia and Jessie's newest production draws the audience into an unusual, idiosyncratic, and playful sonic and visual world, experimenting with and challenging generally accepted practices of today’s electronic music, and contemporary music more broadly.
