"Collective Alchemy" at Hemi GSI Convergence 2013

Written By Allison Wyper

I'm excited to present a new transnational intermedia collaboration with Sam Fox (Hydra Poesis, Perth, Western Australia) on Saturday, October 12 at the University of Southern California, as part of the Hemispheric Institute of Performance and Politics Graduate Student Initiative (GSI) Convergence 2013: Experimental Collectivities. 

Together Sam and I will re-visit my May 2013 Los Angeles River performance, in dialogue with Sam's recent work at the Swan River, through video and live performance.  We will be meeting up via skype between Perth and L.A. (may the technology gods smile upon us!) with additional live performance by Peruvian American artist Mariel Carranza.

This Performance Night event, "COLLECTIVE ALCHEMY: TURNING GRIEF INTO ACTION," is curated by the wonderful Micha Cardenas and Zach Blas.
