FIAT is an opportunity to engage with skepticism and belief in the effects of sound on bodies and minds. Over the course of four hours with the sunset at the center, Whitney Johnson and Greg Fox perform in the midst of a multi-channel sine wave array. The theory of brainwave entrainment claims that clockwise movement through this installation can relax the listener, and counterclockwise movement can energize. With these possibilities in mind, FIAT is composed by the body of each listener through motion, attention, and intention—a coming into being by act of will.
Roulette's annual Mixology Festival highlights novel approaches to technology in music and media arts, since 1991, and is supported in-part by media The Foundation.
A livestream will be available free of charge at 8pm Eastern on the day of the performance and archived for future viewing.
