An evening of sound and film exploring humans, otherness, ecology and landscape at Anita.

Artist Rankin Renwick will present a curation of short films about the otherness that humans lay upon non-human animals, about people trying really hard to listen and people hardly listening. The films are by Colleen Plumb, Rebecca Barten, Carolina Charry Quintero and Rankin Renwick.

Musician Lisa Schonberg will present a quad speaker performance from her new album Old Growth Playback. The work is a response to the question <<What will old-growth forests of the future sound like?>> and features compositions of percussion, field recording, and synthesized soundscapes, conceived during Schonberg’s time as an artist-in-residence at HJ Andrews Experimental Forest, a biological research station in Oregon’s Cascade range.
