Matt Ingalls &
Ken UenoWitness first-hand the entanglement of two skyrmions in a space roughly the size of the Large Hadron supersaturated vapor chamber.
Ken Ueno is a composer, vocalist, and sound artist of elemental force whose sequester in faculty quarters at UC Berkeley will be breached when he steers into the path of
Matt Ingalls, clarinetist, computer music programmer, and thaumaturge.

Julia Mazawa & Oakland
Always already collaborating, Julia Mazawa is an improviser, illustrator, sculptor and recordist who lives life with play and record buttons both mashed flat. On this night, she lifts us into the canopy of sound encountered at the storm drains, corners, and treetops of downtown Oakland, her constant collaborator.

Gerritt Wittmer & Paul Knowles
Not seen since their amazing 2011 performance at the Berkeley Art Museum, this singularly confounding duo can extinguish sound and set fire to silence. No use guessing what may happen on this eve, but bring a thermometer to prove to yourself you aren't running a hallucinatory fever.
