Jeff Rice: Pando Suite
In March 2024 Jack Straw and Arts and Visually Impaired Audiences (AVIA) presented an accessible youth and family art workshop with resident artist Jeff Rice exploring the sights and sounds of Pando, the world’s largest tree.
After an audio description of Pando Suite, Rice’s New Media Gallery installation, participants explored some of the equipment used to create the sounds heard in the installation, including hydrophones and contact microphones. The workshop culminated in a recorded live performance improvised by the participants.
