Summer songs workshop + performance
Workshop: 1–4PM Snack Break: 4–5PM Performance: 5–6PM
Learn to sing shape note music this Saturday with a free workshop by Jesse Pearlman Karlsberg and Carrie Dashow.
Presenting new songs written over summer on their Subliminal History of New York State: Route of Progress tour, Carrie and Jesse invite everyone to join them in a performance to sing shape note songs, pop some balloons, and welcome the Fall!
Forays (Eyebeam production fellow Geraldine Juárez and resident Adam Bobbette) will run a public workshop on Saturday, October 27 at 12PM, to build an Edible Waste Machine. Come and turn your waste into endless food!
This workshop is part of Eyebeam’s current Interference 10 year retrospective exhibition, running from September 27 to November 10, 2007.
Meet Carlos J. Gómez de Llarena at 7PM sharp at Eyebeam, and project your ideas of the metropolis using the Urballoon as we take it to the streets of New York City. This is a chance to experience the Urballoon outside of the gallery and in its natural habitat. You‘ll also get a chance to discuss the project with Carlos in person.
Everyone is welcome and everyone is invited to participate!
Just a heads up before you come to Eyebeam on Thursday night: please post your definitions of New York City to be projected on the Urballoon using text, images, or animations, by clicking on: http://www.urballoon.com/post.jsp
