Produced by Dan Joseph.

Well-known for his engaging noise and experimental liberation performances utilizing a wide range of materials and strategies, Bellerue’s work focusses on resonant feedback systems, amplified instruments, objects, recordings, and spaces, in combination with electronics and software written in the Supercollider audio synthesis programming language. For tonight’s program, Bob will perform an improvised set for winds, piano, voice, metal and feedback. The program will begin with a conversation hosted by series curator Dan Joseph.

Now it its extended seventh season, Musical Ecologies is a monthly symposium on music and sound held at the Old Stone House in Park Slope, Brooklyn. Curated and hosted by composer Dan Joseph, each event typically focuses on a single artist who presents a work or project either in the form of a talk or lecture, a multimedia presentation, a performance, or combination thereof. Each presentation is preceded by an extended conversation between the artist and curator.
