Steve Castellano started studying classical piano at age 8, picked up his first analogue synthesizer at 14, and came to Toronto to study electronic music and composition at York University at 17. He has since been involved in a number of musical pursuits ranging from documentary and computer game scores to a jazz fusion CD release in the 90s and a brief appearance as Benny in an Abba tribute band. His modular compositions combine solid state, vacuum tube and code-based sources to explore the borders between familiar consonant harmonic spaces and the chaotic realms where digital artifacts, found sounds and radio transmissions fight for control of the ionosphere. http://www.stevecastellano.com/ 10:00 . Ben Grossman, cheryl o & Barry Prophet perform an evening of improvisations. Creative flexibility enabled by texturally rich instrumentation empowered by many decades of experience will materialize in a series of solo, duo & trio manifestations. The artists’ performances of acoustic, electronic & electro-acoustic instruments will take the audience on experiences that are linear, nonlinear, spherical, amorphic & more.
