Description

Soundwave ((6)) Opening Night Party featuring Rogue Wave and Kacey Johansing with interactive art installations by artists Drew Detweiler & Lyes
Bellocine, Evan Holm, Gene Felice II, Travis Johns, Speaking Tributaries and Edward Schocker. Co-presented by SF Bay Guardian.

MEDIATE opens the floodgates to San Francisco’s innovative three-month art and music festival, Soundwave ((6)) Water, its newest festival season, with a a tsunami of live music, innovative art and cutting-edge science that explore our most important natural resource: Water.
As part of the NightLife LIVE monthly music and art series, local indie faves Rogue Wave storms the party with special guest Kacey Johansing on the outdoor East Garden stage. Surf amongst the fish in the deep, dark coral reef with ‘DataSurf,’ an installation by artists Drew Detweiler and Lyes Bellocine, that allows you to interact with a surfboard and your mirrored self in a barrel of swirling visuals projections.

Experience ‘Submerged Turntables,’ artist Evan Holm’s sculpture installation performing with sounds from live underwater records in the center Piazza with special guest Karuna Holm playing the underwater fretless zither and accompanying the turntables with her voice. Interact with ’Oceanic Scales’ artist Gene Felice II’s hands-on art & science installation, inspired by phytoplankton, the first link in the oceanic food chain. Create art prints with artist Travis John’s ‘Hydroprinting,’ a sonographic instrument that measures water currents. Voice your thoughts at ’Speaking Tributaries,’ a memory collection booth of the sea; and, play with water-instruments with instrument builder and artist Edward Schocker.

The East Garden also features ‘IDILIO,’ by Gabriel Fontanillo and Leyre Montes, which explores the connections between a sea horse and an anemone, curated by Betty Bigas and projections by All of It Now.

Event is a part of Soundwave ((6)) Water Biennial sound+art festival, July 10th-Sept 28, San Francisco.
