GRAY MATTERS [ the space between ]
GERARD COX + C.G. RYAN + DVVID WATSON
a journey through
contrast and nuance
to transcend
boundaries in time
and space
This experimental show was a journey of nuance between sonic and visual contrast and boundaries to transcend time and space. Fuse Factory’s new surround sound system enveloped the audience in a transportive soundscape, and the walls expanded and dissolved with audio-reactive visuals projection mapped on the forty-foot walls and vaulted ceiling of the historic Old First Sanctuary.
GERARD COX is a musician and events creator, who has a long history in the Columbus improvisational music community. Gerard is also a board member of the Fuse Factory, Electronic and Digital Arts Lab, advocating for creative education and experimentation in the live and digital music spaces.
C.G. RYAN is a media artist and scenic designer who creates playful, surreal imagery that she mixes in real time performances to create vistas of inner and outer space, layering tangibility with the imaginary. She holds an MFA in Visual Arts: New Media from CCAD, and collaborates with artists, musicians, and producers to create transportive, immersive experiences for audiences at live events and in theatrical productions.
DVVID WATSON is a musician and an experimental audio/visual artist that combines field recordings, audio scraps, synthesizers, and effects to create unusual sound environments.
