Interiority, 9/26-27/2025

So honored to have been invited to be part of this year’s @nmassfest with this two-day installation 🙏

“Interiority is an interactive audiovisual piece that asks the viewer to look inside themself by literally stepping inside an interior space, where they are prompted to spin dials to ‘align’ their chakras. Doing so brings sonic & visual clarity to a soundscape and visual feed of themself, but they must keep spinning dials like plates to maintain the experience against entropy. Meanwhile the exterior video and soundscape is mangled with each chakra alignment.

The inside viewer is shielded from the visual and sonic effects of the outside experience, asked to focus on their own experience and weigh personal fulfillment, novelty, and inner peace against the experience of others.”

Excerpts from Mingfei Xie’s set at Stargazer for our collaboration with Sound Sunday this past Sunday evening – September 28, 2025

Thanks to @sculptureforge for letting us be there and for running sound!

Thanks to Cassie Watson Francillon x Sasha Masakowski for visiting us all the way from New Orleans!

The duo collaboration of harp, electronics, dreamstate bass & sultry-cerebral beats. Ambient, raw and ethereal components merge, transform and leave space for reflection and possibilities. The project started as a DIY activation in their neighborhood record shop in New Orleans and led to the recording + release of their album SUITE, mixed by Nick Hook (Run the Jewels, Lido Pimienta) and mastered by Joe LaPorta (David Bowie, Emily Wells).

Check out their recent album at:

Thanks to Elaine Barber for lending us the harp for the performance on 9/28/2025 afternoon!
