In response to Chaos with a side of spaghetti curated by Emily Weiskopf

Featuring the New London Drone Orchestra, an group that  collectively improvises sustained, layered, gradually evolving, timeless sound that can be an accompagnement to any poetry or performance of the evening should that be welcome. 

This night is inspired and in dialogue with the ongoing show curated by Emily Weiskopf. 

"We are hurtling toward the unknown. The unrelatable. The bizarre and disorienting shape of this moment. The endless news cycle feeds instability at every turn, every click. Comfort slips from under our feet, our eyes look for the sun. What once felt real, what once felt safe, is gone. Poof. In the wind.
Chaos with a Side of Spaghetti is response and survival. The artists laugh in the face of impossible odds. You take our healthcare, we pick up the brush. You wage wars, we build worlds. For every right stripped away, there is a video, a painting, an assemblage. We meet the absurd with humor, comfort, vices, and despair, still searching for beauty, for joy and laughter. Like spaghetti thrown at the wall. We’ll see what sticks. Today, if only to take your mind off things for a moment."

Open mic and collective improvisation is prompted from this ethos.
