CATERINA BARBIERI LIVE IN CHICAGO!
Monday, November 18th from 8-10pm
Chicago Cultural Center
78 E Washington Street
Presented with the Chicago Architecture Biennial, in collaboration with the Italian Cultural Institute of Chicago.
Italian-born, Berlin-based composer Caterina Barbieri premieres new music for Lampo and the Chicago Architecture Biennial—in her local debut and first-ever multi-channel performance.
Here, she plays pattern-based synthesizer music amid the epic, ornately patterned Preston Bradley Hall. Barbieri uses repetition to trigger spatial and temporal hallucinations, where the perception of the present is constantly refreshed, in an endless sense of loss, re-discovery and the search for self-orientation. One can only assume these notions are enhanced by the ample hang time in tonight’s venue.
Caterina Barbieri (b.1990, Bologna, Italy) is an Italian composer who explores themes related to machine intelligence and object-oriented perception in sound through a focus on minimalism.
