CKUT's MAGIC SOUND BOX @ ST GEORGE ANGLICAN CHURCH, NOVEMBER 19th, 6:45PM AND 8:45PM SHARP

CKUT Radio invites you...

…Into the Magic Sound Box

Live Radio Art Transmission Performance: a mash of Storytelling, Music and Sound Art

Thursday, November 19th
Two showings: 6:45pm sharp & 8:45pm sharp
St George Anglican Church, de la Gauchetière Street, between Peel and Stanley Streets (@ metro Bonaventure)
Suggested donation: $8-12

CKUT is hosting the second Magic Sound Box. Modeled after a concept developed in Kingston at CFRC radio station, it proposes a full auditory exploration of the magic of radio.

This live radio transmission art show (or tell...) takes the audience inside Radioland - inside the magic sound box - highlighting the many talents of CKUT, exploring the limits of aural imagination and indulging in the intimacy of sound.

Amateur and veteran sound-makers will transform the 19th century Anglican Church. The plan: create an enclosed area with large swaths of fabric, turn off the lights...and make radio. The audience is inside the box, the performers are on the outside. Some of the sounds will be mixed through a quadrophonic speaker system and some will use the natural acoustics of the space, inviting our listeners to enjoy the spatial qualities of voices, instruments, field recordings and electronics.

The evening will include musical soundscapes, short stories, exploratory sonic installations and poetry, creating a series of sound art that will rest your eyes and tickle your ears.

The performance will also broadcast over the airwaves of CKUT 90.3FM (or www.ckut.ca), reaching the ears of unsuspecting audience members in their cars, bedrooms, living rooms and bathtubs.

We hope you'll be there, ears perked and mind open.
