Tell your friends, mark your calendars: experience excerpts from Makrokosma Bali, a new collaborative work by composer Wayne Vitale, Sekaa Gong Taruna Mekar (a renowned 25-member gamelan ensemble from Bali making their US debut), and visual and set designers. It combines music with video and still imagery, digital-audio soundscapes, and integrated lighting, and contrasts the cultural values and cosmology of Bali with those of Western origin. Visitors can check out Bali, go on a docent tour, make art, mingle over drinks from the cash bar, and more. So bring your friends and spend the evening with us.
