Ing Ing (Variation 3) + Poetry Reading | Ben Glas + Carrie Hunter
September 9, 2016 | Littman Gallery
Reception: Friday, September 6, 2016 | 6 - 8pm
Curated by Carlin Brown + Paul Mazier
Ing Ing (Variation 3) is an experiential tonal composition that merges time and space, proprioception and movement. Utilizing open-ended drones and acoustic beating, its installation space becomes an interactive 3D album; the choice of movement and composition are in the hands and minds of each individual listener, as they sculpt their own experience in space.
Ben Glas is an interdisciplinary artist and composer based in Portland, Oregon. Glas’ work focuses intently on egalitarian proprioception, stasis/rush within digital systems, and notions of spacetime. Working extensively with sine-waves and unconventional softwares, Glas engages physical spaces and their ephemeral inhabitants to remind participants of a momentary sonic awareness within space and time.
