live events and performances

Performances are rare but unforgettable. They are genre-defying events combining live music, spoken word, projection, dance, scientific demonstration, and sculptural props. Most are designed for non-traditional venues - galleries, record stores, caves, forests, rivers - relying on an ever evolving understanding of site specificity.

E is for equinox

E is for Equinox is a site-specific composition designed under Type A’s Align in which 70 electric guitarists (and their 70 giant amplifiers) form a huge circle and strum single E major chords in unison. First whole notes, then half notes, then quarter notes, then eighth notes. Increasing in volume and distortion until the entire forest and sky ring as one.
