Attended the launch of the 2020 edition of See/Hear multimedia series.
About the series (Taken from the Ottawa Citizen):
“The idea for the series grew out of a pilot program called Listen/Hear that was presented at city hall last summer, supported by funding from the city, as a response to one of the recommendations of the municipal music strategy to make city spaces available for artistic programming.
Debaser’s Rachel Weldon, who is a producing partner (along with the city, ODD and SAW Video), compared it to something you might see during an event like Nuit Blanche, except that it takes place at lunch time.
“It’s meant to transform a very public and bureaucratic space into a performance space,” she said. “That’s what’s exciting for me: Doing a weird experimental collaboration at city hall in the middle of the day.”
Wellington Sanipe was doing the live music and Ottawa Dance Directive did the dancing.
There was Projections by Pansee Atta
