PERFORMANCE: KATHY KENNEDY AND THE CONCORDIA CHAMBER CHOIR
Wednesday, April 8, at 2:15 PM
SIGHTINGS cube, ground floor, Hall Building
Free
Voices carry and embody presence, resonating through our ears, our minds, and our bodies in space. Bringing their voices together, sound artist Kathy Kennedy and the Concordia Chamber Choir will occupy the Hall Building’s atrium and the SIGHTINGS cube for an ambulatory concert and a participatory World Wide Tuning Meditation by composer and performer Pauline Oliveros (1932-2016).
This event is the second in a series of performances presented in conjunction with the installation A PLACE TO SIT by Phillipe Battikha and Martín Rodríguez, as part of the SIGHTINGS 2026–2027 cycle, DECORUM.
PERFORMANCE: A PLACE TO SIT
Philippe Battikha — trumpet & amplifier
Martín Rodríguez — radios & transmissions
Wednesday, March 25, at 2:15 PM and 5:15 PM
Begins at the SIGHTINGS cube, ground floor, Hall Building
Free
Through an ambulatory sound walk around the Hall Building, Rodríguez and Battikha will conjure past student protests that took place there through radio transmissions and amplified trumpet. Archival audio will resound in the spaces where it was once recorded, met and refracted by the building’s present-day sounds. This convergence of past and present will move from the ninth floor to the lobby, concluding with a sonic meditation on the act of sitting in the SIGHTINGS cube.
The performance will take place twice, at 2:15 pm and 5:15 pm.
SIGHTINGS 46
This series of performances is presented in conjunction with SIGHTINGS 46: A PLACE TO SIT, a project by Philippe Battikha & Martín Rodríguez on view on the ground floor of the Hall Building until May 17, 2026.
