SOUND IN SPACE
An indiscriminate month of sound performances.
February 6th – March 1st, 2008

All events are Free
Visit the Sound in Space web site for a complete schedule and more info:

Sound in Space will traverse diversity by presenting cross sections of the local sound
art community. From sound installation to Fluxus note card pieces and field recordings to
live ambient music, the topography of the musical fringe is as varied as the community is
geographically dispersed.
This is a program for the community by artists in the community. Every performance is free
with an aim to urge active collaboration and exchange between artists and audiences.
While the sea and space are the dark unknowns, they don’t have to be unknowable. Sound
in Space are vehicles with which the community is invited to navigate and explore art that
has been termed “experimental,” or “conceptual;” loose terms that create a barrier rather than
extend a hand.
The Sea and Space Explorations Gallery hosts performances and installations every weekend
(Thursday through Sunday) during the month of February.
