Artists Jeremy Toussaint-Baptiste and Evicshen collaborate to create a sonic space that reframes sound as both a tool for subverting power and a site of collective possibility. Toussaint-Baptiste’s repurposing of a Long Range Acoustic Device (LRAD), a technology commonly used by military and police forces for crowd control, becomes a mechanism for gathering and collective experience. In dialogue with him are Evicshen’s self-built instruments, which, through physically exertive performance, explore the affective dimensions of noise, creating a soundscape that oscillates between chaos and control. Toussaint-Baptiste and Evicshen’s performance is co-presented by The Lab and The Wattis Institute.On March 10 at 6 pm, Toussaint-Baptiste will present another performance at the Wattis on the campus of the California College of the Arts in San Francisco. Both programs are part of the Wattis’s ongoing research season dedicated to the topic of labor.
*Support for this program is provided by Teiger Foundation.*
