<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:0in;margin-bottom:.0001pt;line-height:

video pieces. It explores how artists approach their compositions and how they
notate the scores from which the videoists perform.</p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:0in;margin-bottom:.0001pt;line-height:

videoists and musicians resulting from this summer's six-week workshop. The
video pieces incorporate human breath control, XBox, language as controller,
and physical architecture. The evening will end with the VCW composers
discussing their printed scores and compositional approaches.</p>

artists and audiences the opportunity to make and experience sound art. Through
the exploration of active and varied modes of listening Diapason seeks to
engage artists and the public in a dialogue about the place of contemporary
music and sound practice in a broader cultural context. For artists, both
established and emerging, Diapason provides a space at once accessible and
technologically advanced, fostering the creation of unique works that
investigate the implications of new sound practices. For audiences Diapason
provides an optimal listening environment and access to artists, encouraging
personal exploration of one’s relationship to sound and listening. </span></p>

the past fourteen years Diapason and its predecessor program (Studio 5 Beekman)
have presented the work of over 350 composers and other practitioners of sound
art from the USA and abroad. Diapason presents a broad spectrum of multi-media
work, from emerging to established artists. Three years ago, Diapason relocated
to its own dedicated exhibition space in Brooklyn, with two galleries in which
we present monthly sound installations and regular live performances
year-round.</span><span lang="ES-TRAD" style="color:black;mso-ansi-language:ES-TRAD"><span style="mso-tab-count:2"> </span><br style="mso-special-character:
