The Bridge Sound and Stage

Floor Plan For Soundscape 2010

We are one again sponsoring a the Blink Project.  This event takes place in 2 adjacent venues simultaneously, Underbar and Caprice Lounge.  It is a standalone event that will be a sample of our proposed temporary installation and series of events, for the former Filene’s site in Downtown Crossing, (info. on website). SOUNDSCAPE is an ongoing exploration of BLiNK, based upon an unprecedented synergistic interaction of music, art, architecture, and sound. Electroacoustic drumset, violin, guitar, cello, bass, oud, piano-synth, and exotic percussive instruments from around the globe, will perform a 20 movement score, creating a soundscape, which winds through the venue’s oddly shaped architecture. A lead group will perform upstairs at Caprice.  Their sound will be transmitted downstairs, and played on speakers throughout Underbar, where 3 other groups, spread apart, will play in synchronization with that sound. Lighting and video art will mesh with the music.  This involves faculty, alumni, and students from Berklee, MassArt, Emerson, Bridgewater State, and Art Institute (Brookline). http://blinkproject.com/soundscape2010.html
