“INTERBEING has been a project years in the making that continues to unfurl and surprise us, we’re beyond ecstatic to share the most recent iteration of this transportive work. The evening will consist of eight movements of chamber music, ritual, and theatrical sounding sculptures enacted with our bodies. The aim of interbeing is to create a truly socially-oriented work and explore different articulations of interconnectivity—between composer & performers & audience & each specific place in which the piece is performed. To that end, the performance on October 7th will include a selection of prepared food and beverages crafted by Wubbels and TAK that rely on ingredients foraged over the course of several months by Wubbels in his hometown in Western Massachusetts.” - TAK
