Join us for an evening performance at BMCM+AC with William Brittelle, Erika Dohi, and Timo Vollbrecht. Their performance will expand the universe of Eternal September, an alternate reality project spanning experimental music, video art, installation, and more.
ETERNAL SEPTEMBER is an alternate reality consisting of an ever-expanding network of audio, video, imagery and hypertext. The project was launched in 2021 by Grammy-winning™ composer/producer William Brittelle and is brought to life through artistic residencies, recorded music, ritual capture events, and site-specific installations. Upon completion, all ETERNAL SEPTEMBER content is extensively documented by its own wiki, a system discrete entirely from the IRL internet, and made available to the general public.
ETERNAL SEPTEMBER collaborators, either as individuals or in groups, create content as alternate reality versions of themselves, or “morphs” – a process reflective of the early utopian days of the internet. Morphing allows ETERNAL SEPTEMBER collaborators to freely explore repressed artistic impulses without IRL implications. Thus far, over 50 musicians, visual artists, and creative technologists have contributed to the project, including Immanuel Wilkins, Shahzad Ismaily, Enongo Lumumba-Kasongo (Sammus), Morgan Guerin, Holland Andrews, Isaac Gale and members of Broken Social Scene, Wye Oak, Son Lux, and Poliça.
ETERNAL SEPTEMBER ensemble partners include Metropolis and Roomful of Teeth. The project is incubated at the Brown Arts Institute of Brown University. Additional supporting organizations include the Walker Art Museum, the Boston Symphony Orchestra, MIT, the Cincinnati Symphony, the Great Northern Festival, Liquid Music, MASS MoCA, Black Mountain College Museum + Arts Center, and PS21 Arts Center.
The evening event at BMCM+AC will feature ßynthündßäx: The Collexion, a live performance of the late ’80’s German/Japanese synthesizer and sax duo ßynthündßäx playing their score to Collexion, an alternate reality line of experimental Japanese streetwear, with visuals by Cal Waytena and Luca Suarez. Supported by the Brown Arts Institute.. Learn more about the PARCO Collexion: https://wiki.eternal-september.net/index.php?title=PARCO-collexion
