“Cosmic Cliffs finds inspiration in and uses imagery from NASA’s James Webb Telescope…both the audio and video interact with the performer during the performance.” - from the program note of Cosmic Cliffs by Dylan Findley.
New Arts Collaboration presents a multimedia piano concert featuring pianist Ting Luo, collaborating with living composers to present a total of eight piano pieces, which includes four world premiere multimedia piano works by emerging composers. This innovative and experimental piano concert will feature new works by Xuesi Xu, Dylan Findley, Sarah Wald and Cole Reyes, performed by pianist Ting Luo alongside multimedia projections and electronic sounds. Furthermore, to commemorate the Asian American and Pacific Islander Heritage Month in May, the concert will feature works by Emily Koh and Juhi Bansal as well as an improvisational piano piece with sounds programmed in Supercollider by Joo Woo Park! The concert also features the world premiere of Sustain for piano and electronics by french artist Aries Mond.
