Environmental sound installation at EMPAC, RPI, Troy. The Isle Is Full of Noises is an environmental sound installation composed by Michael Century, RPI professor of new media and music, with the assistance of Eric Miller, Ph.D. student in electronic arts. Century’s installation employs Wave Field Synthesis speaker arrays to spatialize an 8-channel sound composition. “The Isle Is Full of Noises,” is taken from Shakespeare’s play The Tempest. The characters of Caliban and Miranda are foregrounded against the auditory backdrop of an imaginary tropical island. Visitors will hear poetic text, phonemic particles of language, birds, animals, and occasional snippets of melody. “Caliban can be taken as the figure of the indigenous people of the ‘New World,’ a slave to an imperious foreigner with magical powers Caliban’s speech, which begins, ‘Be not afeard; the isle is full of noises,’ articulates with great beauty the abundance of sonic life on the island.

Musicians Arone Dyer, Brian Dewan, Ross Goldstein, Alexander Turnquist, and Liam Singer take an ambient/freeform musical journey inspired by the collective ingestion of Kava, a drink we have come to know and love. What is Kava, you ask? It's a plant-based beverage originating in the Pacific islands with natural sedative, anesthetic and euphoriant properties that is quickly gaining popularity in the west as a delightful alternative to alcohol. Audience members who wish to participate in Kava consumption should arrive at 7:30 p.m. We like a concoction that pairs Kava with Oat milk, cinnamon, and honey, but can accommodate other preparations upon request. The music will begin a little past 8 p.m. Chairs will be set out, as well as a small area of blankets/pillows if anyone wishes to lie down. From there, we'll all spend the next hour+ musically enjoying our slightly altered state. There should be a live webstream at http://wgxc.org.

Henry Birdsey is a multi-instrumentalist, composer, and recording engineer from Vermont, working primarily with microtonal organ, lap steel, violin, and homemade instruments.
