ROTARY BANDSHELL
Curated by Julija Rukanskaitė and Emily Dundas Oke
Artist as a Digital Archivist is an international curatorial project that explores how narratives are constructed based on the model of digital archiving, questioning the potential of archives as an act of memory making in relation to the wider social outcome they imply. Initiated as an open call for video works that address themes ranging from time and memory to the politics of public narratives, it has become a collage in which the non-continuity, open-endedness and grounding in previous artistic and non-artistic practices make up the project itself.
ORIGAMI AND MORE MUSIC FOR SPONGES

ROTARY BANDSHELL
Martin Marier and Émilie Payeur
The sponge is a digital musical instrument that looks like a cushion. The sensors in it detect when it is twisted, bent or tapped, and allow the performers to intuitively play with a fancy synthesizer. Origami is a partially improvised work about folding, unfolding and fold-over. It was composed by Montreal artists Martin Marier and Myriam Bleau during improvisation sessions in 2013, slowly fixing a structure while exploring the possibilities of the instrument. Marier will perform Origami with special guest, Émilie Payeur, for Kamloops audiences.

AUXHAUS, ROTARY BANDSHELL
Ma: On Weightless Occupied Space is a musique concrète and contemporary dance performance exploring the vast subject of light─our dominant and pervasive habitat.
It represents the qualities of light as an environment experienced in both discrete and continuous conditions. Simultaneously organic and ephemeral, the work uses abstract soundscapes to express detailed light/object interaction through reflection and refraction while articulating broad impressions of human/light experience through visceral dance and light-source manipulation.
