This month on Making Waves Nadene and Darren go on a guided tour with Canadian artist James Kirkpatrick to learn about his circuit-bent sound sculptures on exhibit at NAISA North Media Arts Centre. Intermixed with their conversations are excerpts from Kirkpatrick’s performance at NAISA as Thesis Sahib, which conclude with a humorous take of his home town of London, Ontario. For photos of the artwork visit NAISA’s facebook.

This monthly program is produced by New Adventures in Sound Art (NAISA). The program features selections from the NAISA archives and is produced by Darren Copeland, NAISA Artistic Director. NAISA is a South River-based Canadian organization that presents performances and installations spanning the entire spectrum of electroacoustic and experimental sound art. The objectives of NAISA are to foster awareness and understanding locally, as well as nationally and internationally, in the cultural vitality of experimental sound art in its myriad forms of expression.
