THE SIGNING will transform Nathan Phillips Square in Toronto into a vortex of sound, image, energy and movement during the night of October 4th 2014 for Toronto’s Nuit Blanche. The conceptual narrative takes the dramatic tension enacted in the signing of a contract, filtered through the myth of Orpheus. The project is a collaboration from experimental film, video, sound, installation and Performance Art cult figure Tony Conrad and renowned Irish composer and performer Jennifer Walshe.http://www.shastiolearysoudant.com/files/snb14guidebook.pd
