Aki Onda Reflections and Repercussions.
A multi-media performance exploring the interplay among luminosity, acoustic, architectural, and emotional relationships within the space. Performing with various types of lighting equipment such as theater lights, flashlights, bare light bulb, mirrors and other objects, Onda arranges and rearranges the tools composing the visual and aural as a total environment.
Free for BMCM+AC members + students w/ID / $8 non-members
Performance includes prolonged sequences of flashing and strobing light
