Montreal-based artist and composer Erin Gee is partnering up with vocal ensemble musica intima, pianist Andrea Wong, and a community ensemble to present Affect Flow—in the fifth edition of Vancouver New Music’s PARALLELS series.
Affect Flow is a concert of work by Gee that features hypnotic gestures, live biosensor feedback, imaginative script writing, choral performance by musica intima, and original electroacoustic music.
Through her work in music and new media art, Gee probes interior experience as an automatic, unconscious, and sensual material, likening the vibrations of vocal chords to the channeling of electricity across her electronic biofeedback systems, or the feeling of an emotion spreading across the room.
Inspired by the online phenomena of Autonomous Sensory Meridian Response (ASMR), Gee whispers, taps, and sings to provoke physiological responses, feeding this affective data into her DIY BioSynths to generate live and spatialized sound.
