THE EAR AND THE EYE is thrilled to return September 18 with a new collaborative film and music performance by Columbus, Ohio based filmmaker&nbsp;Roger Beebe and members of&nbsp;Ann Arbor&rsquo;s Soft Knee Collective. Working with multiple projectors, found images, and the &ldquo;found&rdquo; landscapes of late capitalism, Roger Beebe creates essayistic films and live cinematic performances that reconsider the images and environments surrounding us. His work has appeared around the globe at such unlikely venues as the CBS Jumbotron in Times Square and McMurdo Station in Antarctica as well as more likely ones including Sundance and the Museum of Modern Art with solo shows at Anthology Film Archives, El Centro de Cultura Digital in Mexico City, and Los Angeles Filmforum among many more. For this special performance, Beebe will join Soft Knee Collective members Mara Mayer, Otavio Manzano Kavakama, Roberta Michel, and Johnathan Tatara to create a new work bringing moving images and live music into conversation. Soft Knee Collective is an electroacoustic flexible-instrumentation new music ensemble and creator collective of composers, performers, electronic musicians, and collaborators from an array of disciplines, including music technology, science, visual arts, and design. They create platforms for artists whose voices and work may not always find a place within traditional music spaces. Through collaboration, SKC builds connections across disciplines, support emerging and underrepresented voices, and foster a vibrant creative community. At the heart of their work is a commitment to curiosity and shared experience. Soft Knee Collective design welcoming, inclusive events that invite audiences into the creative process through immersive performances, interdisciplinary projects, and meaningful artistic exchange. Together, Beebe and SKC embody what lies at the heart of THE EAR AND THE EYE, artists crossing boundaries and discovering new possibilities where sound and moving image meet.
