Performances by Eleanor King, Matteo Marangoni, and Angel Faraldo, live from Toronto, Canada, at Trans-X Transmission Art Symposium. "Signal" by Eleanor King is a performance using multiple radio receivers, piano, loop station, and recorded sounds, and is inspired by minimalism, chaotic blurts of noise music, and the relentless crashing of waves against a shoreline. City Sondols: Toronto is a sound walk that takes the audience on a short tour through different acoustic spaces. Also included will be Rabble Rousers by Sarah Boothroyd.
A live performance broadcast to multiple radio receivers, this work will alternate between melodic phrasing and non musical sounds. Using piano, loop station, and recorded sounds, Eleanor King presents an improvisational composition inspired by minimalism, chaotic blurts of noise music, and the relentless crashing of waves against a shoreline.

"Rabble Rousers" by Sarah Boothroyd. Touching on ethics, justice, democracy, and global citizenship, Rabble Rousers explores the notion of protest as a spontaneous installation of improvised \'music\' in public space. Supported by the Ontario Arts Council, Rabble Rousers features field recordings of protests from around the globe – including many culled from the Occupy Movement – as well as Creative Commons contributions from Random Coil, Pleq, Papercutz, Carlos Lemosh, Marcus Fischer, Upsteria, Erstlaub, Aurastore, Aos Crowley (Matt Dean), Pocka (Brad Mitchell), Matthias Kispert, and the Prelinger Archives.
