19.00 Live music by Garland

Garland-medium

In my music project Garland, I work with mixing organic sounds and digital tools, mainly by live-sampling the viola, percussion and voice. A key factor in the live-sampling performance is the possibility for the audience to trace the growth of the arrangement as it develops, resulting in a mindful listening, hearing the details in the full arrangement. Also, the inevitable possibility of accidents and errors mean that such improvisations become part of the composition. Lyrically, while the project often touches on personal topics of relationships, it also refects my concerns as a human being in a world where image is becoming more important than identity, and where the same old stories abound, while stories about our interdependence and common fate are more or less neglected.

CEMUSE2015-bigOn May 28th we gather for the second annual Sustainability Festival, hoping to inspire creativity and celebrate collaboration for a more sustainable world. Muses have been known to be the sources of inspiration for great artists, scientists, thinkers and activists.

Come for the interesting lectures, the experiential and creative workshops, the film screenings, the sustainability fair, the grand party with the live music and excellent food, and much more!

Admission to the festival is free! However, the whole festival is built on collaborative volunteer efforts by amazing people. The food and music in the evening is free, but our chefs and musicians would deeply appreciate any voluntary contributions you can make!
