“Points in a Circle: Site-Specific Works for the Hemispheres at Issue project Room”
A month-long program that features new, site-specific work presented on IPR’s 16-Channel Hemispherical Speaker System

The new work will take place over a period of 7 hours, and will include 7 dancers, 7 musicians and 7-food cubes designed by Ralph Lee. Sundown builds on the performance works that Chuma and company have been developing over the last few years using the 7-foot cubes framing a variety of locations around the world.

Sundown will be performed by 7 dancers from School of Hard Knocks: Ursula Eagly, Steven Reker, Saori Tsukuda, Christopher Williams, Ryuji Yamaguchi, Yoshiko Chuma, and guest artist, Jean Butler, with the 7x7 Trombone Band performing live.
