Best known as a member of the legendary group Sexmob, Krauss explores otherworldly sounds and sonic textures with composed passages as well as structured improvisation in this new work, and Raissnia creates an evocative vocabulary of shifting light forms through a new live cinema performance built from video, film, and slide projections.

Additional performers include: Brian Drye, trombone; Peter Evans, trumpet;Michel Gentile, flutes; Mike McGinnis, clarinet; Sarah Schoenbeck, bassoon; and Karen Waltuch, viola.
