Guadalajara, Jalisco, Mexico

THIS EVENT HAS BEEN CANCELLED
Real-time cartographic improvisations using projected, manipulated digital maps by Eric Theise, in collaboration with the ambient and noise soundscapes of vocalist Maria Del Carmen Camarena, bass player Eliud Ernandes, and guitarist Gustavo Larroyo. A visual wash of street grids, land masses, water bodies, and curiosities from built and natural environments. Auditory roundabouts and redirections. Orphaned labels. Free-floating symbology. Colors of jazz, Americana and Latin music. Jittery zooms, pans, and traversals. Glitches in crowdsourced data.
The performance will last one hour and will occasionally introduce strobing effects that may affect photosensitive viewers.
7:30pm doors, 8pm performance; donations gladly accepted
Eric Theise is a San Francisco-based artist and geospatial software developer. Through video and performance he reinvigorates the perceptual inquiries of structural filmmakers, experimental animators, the Light and Space movement, and 60's light shows as new possibilities in the realm of digital cartography.
Maria Del Carmen Camarena is a soprano from Guadalajara with training in Belcanto and a taste for exploring sounds from different parts of the world. Her first solo album, Un Ala/One Wing, is inspired by stories, fantasy, and science fiction works, and takes its title from the idea that though we are limited beings we are still able to fly.
Bass player and livelooping artist, Eliud Ernandes, has performed both in Mexico and abroad, receiving awards and recognition from many international institutions.
