St. Peter's Episcopal Church, Cazenovia
Tickets: Free
A surround sound/video installation inspired by images taken of nebulae in deep space by the Hubble and other orbiting telescopes. Samuel Pellman has created a series of electro-acoustic vignettes with deep space images that have been animated by video artist Miranda Raimondi. These compositions convey a sense of what has been discovered thus far in our exploration of the space above, and hint at some of the further wonders that remain to be discovered. Members of the audience respond to an on-screen menu by pressing tabs on a nano-pad to select the order in which the brief compositions in the Selected Nebulae set are presented. Wander in and out anytime between 10:00-3:00.
