Wednesday February 20th, 2008, 9pm "Pollinator Series: Hive Study" for room and solo performer MERCER UNION A Centre For Contemporary Visual Art Sound Performance/installation for computer, multiple speaker drivers, mixing bowls, shoh (mouth-organ) and room with beeswax/resin scent. Sarah Peebles - composer/performer. Hive Study is a quasi-improvisational, quasi-chance performance piece/installation transforming the Mercer Union gallery space into a sonic honey bee hive featuring sounds of masses of bees recorded inside glass jugs and hives, cicada, and airplanes. Using material initially recorded over several days near Wellington, New Zealand at Lindsay's Apieries, Peebles mixes, layers, manipulates and projects these sounds alongside the shoh — the Japanese mouth-organ used in gagaku (court music) which has made use of beeswax for the past 1,500 years. You are invited to roam about the space, nap or sit where you like - BYO cushions, sleeping bags, blankets, pillows, etc. This project is part of the Canada Council's Music in Alternative Spaces program.
