New ConWorks Show

Posted by on September 28 at 15:47 PM

Last night I went to a really random corporate event at ConWorks and was happy to escape into a room that I’ve since learned houses a show opening on Friday Sept. 30. It’s work by Trimpin called Sheng High that consists of large hunks of bamboo that move seemly randomly up and down. They’re connected to a larger contraption with wires and make this eerie horror movie soundtrack sound as they shift position. Standing amid this installation of sound art filled my friend and I with the good kind of dread that you might get in a particularly suspenseful horror movie. It’s a really cool piece, I recommend checking it out. The reception starts at 8pm.
