In response to what Laszlo Moholy-Nagy referred to as an “opto-acoustic alphabet,” this program highlights the fusion of modulated sound and light. To start the evening, program curators R. Luke DuBois and Zach Layton contextualize the event with a presentation in the Peter B. Lewis Theater. The talk will be followed by a multimedia performance and a turntable concert. The evening culminates with a large-scale multichannel presentation of innovative Hungarian electronic music from the 1970s. The program aims to create for visitors an experience that exemplifies Moholy-Nagy’s dream of a “groove script.”
