On the evening of Thursday, November 6, Art + Technology Lab grant recipients Patty Chang and David Kelley will present a special musical performance and screening of their film S̶t̶r̶a̶y̶ D̶o̶g̶ Hydrophobia, which situates deep sea mining within the longer histories of colonialism, slavery, extraction, and geoengineering. Surrounded by four projections, a live chorus of vocalists, percussionists, and horn players, as well as the film's composer Yasna Yamaoka Vismale, will synchronously perform a composition for the film amongst the audience.
