Visuel du concert We are for a while

In this playful sonic and visual tale on the theme of recycling, Architek Percussion joins forces with Vitalija Glovackyte (objects, lighting, and electronics), Victor Alibert and Michael Cutting to give a new lease on life to broken instruments, borrowed music, and damaged machines salvaged from Montreal's garbage cans. A modern and playful fable!

We Are for a While is a 45 minute work for four performers, electronics, and lighting. This original and joyful show features six artists who use, dismantle, rebuild, and reuse discarded objects, broken instruments, and lo-fi devices found in garbage cans, alleys, and recycling centres. Expanding on the notion of recycling, they reuse and "recontextualize" the music of some twenty artists, which finds new life in their hands, all tied together by real-time lighting.
