Join Music Research Strategies for a participatory listening engagement which explores metaphors of surveillance management and technologies of resistance, particularly through improvisation techniques. Led by Music Research Strategies, the cultural work persona of Creative Music percussionist Marshall Trammell as well as a community engagement platform, the audience will participate as conductors to form an “Insurgent Learning Conductor Ensemble.” The audience will become the conductor, and will work with a set of gestures and scores for Music Research Strategies’ solo percussion to form an unpredictable and ever-changing narrative.
