GreyScreen in Three Dimensions
Thursday, November 16
Doors: 6:30 PM
GreyScreen performance: 7:00 PM
Afterparty: 8:00-10:00 PM
If our latest exhibition, Three Dimensions by Jennifer Marman and Daniel Borins, had a soundtrack, what would it be? Inspired by Marman and Borins' exploration of gamification and technology, Contemporary Calgary has invited local artist GreyScreen (Kevin Stebner) to perform a chiptune set in response to the exhibition.
Please join us for an evening of chiptune (music inspired by video game soundtracks), lasers, and some 80s and 90s throwback fun.
GreyScreen's performance will be followed by a reception in the Flanagan Family Gallery Hall. The exhibition will be open late so you can try your hand at the claw crane machine, or try the Devo helmet to interact with some digital works.
Drinks and snacks will be available for purchase before and after the performance with 80s-inspired cocktails.
FREE for Culture Club Members.
