Art's Birthday 2009!

Cheap Meat Dreams and Acorns presents Winnipeg Sound Machine.
January 17, 12 pm to 5 pm @ Video Pool's studio 300-100 Arthur St. Winnipeg Manitoba.


Winnipeg sound artist Ken Gregory presents a prototype preview of a new work in progress for Art's Birthday 2009. Presented as a sound
installation/performance, Against the Wind( working title) is a result of several years research into Aeolian Kite Instruments.
Winnipeg Sound Machine is an acoustic electro-mechanical system that poetically reproduces the processes involved with operating
the Aeolian Kite Instrument in the field. Receiving the audio recordings from this outdoor instrument, the electro-magnetic sculpture in
the gallery not only becomes a poetic and kinetic representation of a sound speaker, but also mirrors the different components of the
Aeolian Kite Instrument used to capture the wind's voice. This will be premiered in April 2009 at Articule in Montreal in association with Elektra.
