External Event: DXARTS Fall Concert: Fictions in Fugue

"In classical music, a fugue is a contrapuntal, polyphonic compositional technique in two or more voices, built on a subject that is introduced at the beginning in imitation, which recurs frequently throughout the course of the composition."

Fictions in Fugue is an interdisciplinary collaboration by new media artists/performers who come together to activate Meany Theater as a space in fugue and fragmentation. Combining interactive storytelling, Extended Reality technologies and Machine Learning experiments, a series of embodied narratives emerge throughout the evening. Inspired by the short story "The Spiral" by Italo Calvino, formlessness and “indeterminate ways of feeling oneself there” emerge as vignettes of narrative possibilities.
