BODIES


There are a lot of ways to make a body produce noise. Jacob Kirkegaard knows all about that. The sound artist meticulously recorded an autopsy and a body decomposing. We’re celebrating the whole range of the live human body too: there’s a musical tooter, popping knees, throbbing brain arteries, and grunts aplenty. Q&A with Jacob Kirkegaard. **All streaming shows start at 6PM Pacific Time.
