8PM
Free Livestream
PWYC In-Person

The Spire Choir is a sound performance involving a human performer and a bio-sensing voicing apparatus that is co-crafted by Xuan Ye and Jason Doell. Performing with and in algorithms, the Spire Choir intersects the acts of vocal improvisation, mindful movement and neurofeedback.

The resulting soundscape spires up through multimodal entanglements of sound, mind, body and cognitive technologies.

This project is supported by the Canada Council for the Arts.

Introducing our new board member: Afraaz Adam Mulji

I am looking forward to serving the exemplary experimental ethos, pathos and logos Array music has stalwartly embodied and championed; since its inception. I vow to steer the organization in the best interests of the constituents, and fastidiously champion best practices, while reaching out and developing impactful partnerships across the globe. As an intersectional Canadian; the vision for a highly inclusive and responsive institution that will become the paragon upon which other organisations will be modeled, Insha'Allah, is my hope and prayer for Array Music.

Introudcing our new board member, Michelle Breslin:

Array music has been one of those places in Toronto that I have looked to over the years to see who's doing what, and what kind of interesting music is going on. I'll be the first to tell you, I haven't experienced enough of what happens there!
Working with Array Music on the board of directors would be such an excellent opportunity to learn and to help shape the coming years of the musical community in this city, and across the country and to participate in illuminating its wonderful history.

One of my mom's favourite photos of me is when I visited the Array Evergreen Gamelon studio. I can see it too, my smile is just so joyful and I'm surrounded by beautiful instruments. I probably had just hit the gong behind me.

I can't wait to see what's next!

Get to know our new board members, starting with Amahl Arulanandam @amahl.arulanandam

"When I was first starting out in the New Music/Experimental Music scene in Toronto, Array Space served as a meeting place, concert venue and hub for the community and I would work with and meet many people who would become good friends and working partners.

I would like to help Array continue to foster this and be a real cornerstone in the strange music community, or arts community in general for artists both local and abroad."

Please give a warm Arraymusic welcome to our new board members! Amahl Arulanandam, Michelle Breslin, Afraaz Adam Mulji, Michael Palumbo & Adam Tindale!
