Curated by Margaret Schedel and Melissa F. Clarke Performances by: Byron Westbrook, Richard Garet, MV Carbon, Esther B and Yannick Franck, TM Duplantis, Debra Swack, Andrea Williams and John Driscoll resonant structures presents a wide range of artistic responses to our sonic environment. In addition to audio as material in itself, the works in this exhibition actively engage the participant to think about the fullness of auditory thinking. This survey includes some artists who label their work as sound art, but goes further and engages works which deal with sonic culture and the relational possibilities of sound represented in art across the disciplines. In chemistry, resonance structures describe molecules that exist simultaneously in multiple configurations. In order to notate these molecules chemists use double headed arrows to connect the molecular diagrams. Originally it was thought that in special materials electron bonds were oscillating quickly between transient states, but with the discovery of quantum mechanics, scientists understood that these extraordinary structures inhabit all forms instantaneously. The works in resonant structures similarly exist in multiple forms at the same time: as art, as sound, as memory, as inspiration. 137 W 14TH ST NY NY http://inter-space.org/exhibitions
