High Tea with Brady Marks
Sat, Feb 27, 8 – 10:00 pm, Price: $5
High T, is an ambient audio-visual performance, augmented with: rose petals & Chinese black tea, pine smoked Chinese black tea, paraguayan roasted yeba maté, & Seamist tea. Together these affectations touch the boundary between immersion and remediation. Call it liminal social media.
Brady’s fluid attributes extend far beyond her liquid exoskeleton and her nurturing attitude towards compost worms. Her independent/collaboratively engineered environmental interlacing is evident in much of her webbing and audio secretions. She works away furiously in her cloud laboratory to thicken the green soup of virtual reality just enough to remind us of what we are really tasting, being careful of course to ensure that we don’t choke on the big bytes, or get hung up on the crackers.
Brady has lived in Vancouver for a number of years, and is a founding member of the octa-grouping known as intermission. She is a rare example of someone who is able to embrace metamorphosis, and is already embarking on the next evolutionary step of transcending binary.
