The years of physical distancing has revealed and amplified both the potency and challenges of creating in physical space, and we transition curiously into more of hybrid virtual reality.

For each set we invite a live in person audience and an online audience for about an hour. The first set is like a dress rehearsal, exposing the in-process moments of all of us showing up, and listening in to each other, as each artist brings their own material to share. The second set is our do-over, our next iteration, using experience gained from the first set, we change, transition, re-imagine. We make art together.
