Drone Lab
+ Open Projector
Every 3rd Friday
A night of collective sound + vision
Join us for an open session of improvised drone, ambient sounds, and live visuals.
Every third Friday, musicians, sound artists, visualists, and drop-in participants are invited to co-create a lush, evolving composition, an immersive environment where audio and visual art intertwine.
Visual artists and VJs can share live visuals, abstract video, and experimental imagery, and everyone is invited to improvise sounds, with instruments or voice. Each session is shaped by who shows up and is open to all. Part performance, part listening meditation, part creative laboratory, come participate or sink back and enjoy from the cozy lounge.
Bring your laptop for video. Bring your instruments for sounds, or use ours.
Video sign-up is first-come, first-served (15-20 min); music participation is open to all.
No setlist. No headliner. Just flow.
There are no intermissions and you’re free to move in and out of the main space.
A bar area and back yard art installation are available for breaks and conversations.
Shoes off.
Q&A
I’m bringing gear, what do I need to know?
Amplified instruments or synthesizer: We have five mixer inputs, three of which are stereo, 1/4”, and power supply. If your gear is more complex than a simple plug into the mixer, please arrive 15 mins before the event.
Video: We have an HDMI cable hook-up.
Can I bring an instrument?
Yes, or you can use ours. We have a piano, Rhodes, and various hand drums and percussion instruments.
Is everyone free to play what they want?
Yes, Drone Lab is an improvisational night with open participation. The intention is for it to be more meditative than cacophonous, so we reserve the right to do volume control.
What if there are lots of people wanting to plug in at the same time?
If demand is high, we’ll do what we can to make sure everyone gets to play.
Is there a drone sound foundation to build on?
Yes, facilitator Bearded Twin will provide the base drone for the night.
How much time do I have for my video set?
We’ll have a sign-up sheet, each slot is 15-20 mins, depending on demand. If slots aren’t filled, you can do more than one.
Can I just come and watch / listen?
Absolutely! We have bean bags, cushions, hammocks, and chairs for your lounging pleasure.
