Hey Eric and Hue,

I hope life is treating you well.  

We have a show coming up in a few weeks that might be of interest to some of the digital arts folks.  I figure I probably don't reach them all that well, so any help we can get in spreading the word around would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks!

Hello everyone!

We are very excited to announce that the Del Sol String Quartet is returning to New Mexico for three performances of Chris Jonas' GARDEN Chapter 1 "Night" at North Fourth Arts Center in Albuquerque, May 7-8, 2010. This will be the second round of performances after the initial very successful performances and installation of the piece at the Center for Contemporary Arts of Santa Fe, December 2009-March 2010.

ABOUT GARDEN
Garden is a three chapter series of live music-driven intermedia performance/installations developed over 5 years that use linear-immersive media (live music, installation, transparent screens and projected video) to explore expressive, atmospheric, metaphoric, psychological and cross-cultural realms of place, night time and the intersection of the human and natural environment.

This first chapter of the Garden project is a collaboration between Chris Jonas and the Del Sol String Quartet (San Francisco). The 50-minute intermedia composition takes place in front of a live audience surrounding the live string quartet within the layers of video screens, mixing live music with projected video of nighttime landscapes and human figures.

This chapter of Garden utilizes the full range of musical capacities of the Del Sol String Quartet, one of today's most adventurous and accomplished musical ensembles. The project also employs a team of artists that include choreographer, Echo Gustafson, stage director, Acushla Bastible, and a team of Littleglobe interns and assistants.
