Get back to Nature y'all
Enjoy the beautiful day on Sunday, and get to see some site-specific art out in an amazing nature perserve, tucked away in the city!
Supplemental Shrubbery Sound Source
an installation at the Schuylkill Center for Environmental Education
SCEE, 8480 Hagy's Mill Road, Philadelphia
Opening reception: Sunday May 6th 5:30-8:30pm
An array of motion sensitive modules are installed along a section of the trail. When someone walks past, the modules emit sounds which supplement the sounds occurring naturally in the environment. The sound samples are arranged along the path in a sequence which proceeds from the most "natural" to the most "man-made". The effect varies depending upon which way one happens to be moving along the path. At the "natural" end, it is not clear whether what one is hearing is part of the installation or part of the (natural) landscape. Central to this installation are questions about what constitutes "natural" versus "man-made". Just as man has dramatically modified the environment through the introduction of invasive species and transformed the landscape with technological intervention, this installation will supplement and modify the forest's sound environment, both subtly and dramatically, with invasive and technological additions.

Supplemental Shrubbery Sound Source is part of Green Machine, a multi-media exhibition featuring work by Chris Vecchio, Keiko Miyamori, and Katie Murken in partnership with P'unk Avenue.
On Sunday May 6th at 5:30 PM there will be a reception and gallery talk with the artists followed by simultaneous performances by Toshi Makihara (at the Schuylkill Center) and Chikara Miura (in Japan) linked by via the web. The performance begins at 7:30PM. Web-broadcasts and video documentation have been provided by Vincent Romaniello.
