In 2019, I organized an exciting and immersive night of experimental electronic music, synthesizers, and plant life as a benefit for WFMU in its performance space Monty Hall. For this sold out show, I conceptualized the night, organized the bill, and transformed the black box performance space into a plant oasis. 🪴 🌺🌳🌻🎶🎹
As you entered Monty Hall, we had an interactive fruit “piano” by composer Angélica Negrón, where guests could “play” and make sounds with fruits.
On stage, we heard a dreamy, vibrant, and playful music sets that immersed guests in plant life and electronic sounds. Micah Frank played an amplified cactus, Yuka C. Honda played a short electronics set with Kahimi Karie on tuning fork, followed by a set of ON/IN – a duo band that Yuka has with Akio Mokuno, and Greg Fox performed a modular synth set.
