PLOrk: Princeton Laptop Orchestra
PLOrk, the Princeton Laptop Orchestra, presents Mirror Displays, a collection of pieces that explore audio-visual interaction possibilities, featuring experimental trombone duo RAGE Thormbones as special guest artists. Pieces feature electronically processed tap dance, live-coded orchestral sounds, trombones equipped with custom electronics to provide musical control of feedback, a piece of music that is also simultaneously a video game, live group-typed spoken word poetry, tap dance-controlled lights, and a piece where the audience’s cellphones are part of the musical soundscape.
This year’s performers: Jeff Snyder (director), Chris Douthitt (associate director), Mike Mulshine (assistant director), Raphael Forment, Josh Becker, Nikitas Tampakis, Matt Wang, Abbie Minard, Alex Cavoli, Anna Meadors, James Bartusek, Claire Hu, Liam Elliot, Maya Stepanski, Jess Rowland, and special guests RAGE Thormbone
