SUMMARY:Art Out Side: Sonic Bloom
DESCRIPTION:Sonic Bloom is a lively interactive installation that transforms movement and sound into the growth of digital flora based on native plants local to B.C. It offers an opportunity to reflect on our connection to the nature in our own backyard. The piece uses a body tracking camera to allow participants to interact directly with a large-scale projection\, ideally outdoors. Everyone will grow a unique flowering plant native to B.C.\, combining into a garden that evolves with their every movement. The music of Ruby Singh’s Polyphonic Garden will fill the air and activate the flowers as they pulse with each beat. Singh created this Western Canadian Music Award winning album over the course of two years of travels to six biomes throughout so-called “British Columbia.” Using biosonification\, Singh raises songs from indigenous flora and fungi\, transforming bio-electricity into midi data to inform pitch and rhythm. The melodies are then mixed with field recordings and unique instrumentation. What emerges are complexly layered sonic ecologies of connection to the natural world\, where Singh imagines how we might move towards right relations with these generous lands\, waters and skies. The installation will culminate with alive performance by Ruby Singh. Grounded in local ecologies\, Sonic Bloom is a multisensory immersive and interactive experience that connects participants to nature through their bodies. Their active participation in the piece reminding them of their role in shifting our relationship with the more than human world all around us. \n‍ \nAbout the Artist: \nBiome is the collective multisensory\, immersive work of Ruby Singh and John Desnoyers-Stewart grounded in rewilding human relationships with the more-than-human. Ruby Singh is a multi award winning performer\, composer and producer residing on the unceded territories of  the xʷməθkʷəy̓əm\, Sḵwx̱wú7mesh\, and səl̓ílwətaʔɬ/Tsleil-Waututh Nations (Vancouver BC.).

SUMMARY:Art Out Side: Radiant Contours: LED Installation
DESCRIPTION:Radiant Contours isa 9 foot tall outdoor light sculpture that transforms real-world topography into an illuminated vertical landscape. Its surface is made of a 10 by 10 grid of 3D printed terrain tiles\, representing the contours of Southwest British Columbia .As light pulses through the layered forms\, the landscape appears to breathe\, animated by shifting patterns that echo wind and water. The sculpture stands on a 3 by 7 foot cedar platform that houses its 110 volt to 12 volt DC power system. Weather-resistant and self-contained\, it installs quickly and requires only a standard outlet. Radiant Contours is designed to be touched. Viewers are encouraged to explore the terrain with their hands\, engaging with the work through texture\, light\, and movement.
