Aurora Urbem explores synchronicity and sensory connections through sound sculptures, multichannel audio, and video. 

"if you listen, when weirdly the lights are streaming, perhaps you may hear a whisper low.”  -From "Northern Lights" - T.A. Robertson

"the sound was as if rhythms unrealized within were the whole round of heaven. not, as in thunder, being rolled about, a gill--brack about to descend: this was a levitation of things."  -From "Aura" - Colin Simms

Location

Max Stein studies electroacoustic composition at Concordia University in Montréal. His work explores urban soundscapes through electroacoustic composition, online mapping, and live performance in public spaces. Stein designed and runs the Montréal Sound Map, an ongoing Google-maps based archive of sound recordings uploaded by inhabitants and visitors from various locations around the city.

Drew Barnet is a musician and student of electroacoustic composition at Concordia. His musical performances are rooted in improvisation and often incorporate an element of live electronics. More recently he has begun collaborating on sound-based installation work, and is seeking to find new ways to challenge people’s perception and expectations.

Julian Stein is a composer and sound enthusiast currently residing and studying in Montréal.
