dadageek Presents: QUADRANT v5.0
October 26tH, 2024
DOORS @ 7:30p | Performances @ 8p
dadaLab | 2008 ALEXANDER AVE
Join us in an evening of auditory exploration as we present the fifth iteration of QUADRANT – a quadraphonic electronic music experience that explores spatial sound performance and realtime video art. Quadraphonic sound, or sound that emanates from 4 speakers surrounding the listener, greatly expands the possibilities for immersive electronic music performances beyond the ordinary. For QUADRANT v5.0, each artist has designed a performance that activates dadaLab's 4-channel spatial audio system for a uniquely immersive sonic experience. Prepare for compositions that challenge convention, transcend stereo, and envelop your senses.
