Our arts group SubZeroArts is presenting our latest sound-art installation “Transmissions” at the New Adventures in Sound Art at NAISA North Gallery in South River, Ontario.

“Transmissions” is a multi-point sound-art installation that uses a collection of touch-sensitive antennae to trigger abstract sounds and tones, creating a unique sound environment for audience participants to explore.

We’re thrilled to be working with NAISA again, and we hope that you’ll come out and see Transmissions if you’re in the area!

NAISA North Gallery is located at 106 Ottawa Avenue, South River, Ontario, and Transmissions will be on display from February 4th to 26th on Saturdays and Sundays between 11am and 4pm. More information about NAISA can be found on their website

SubZeroArts is presenting our latest work “Transmissions” in Montreal as part of Art SouTerrain — an all-underground arts festival taking place in the passageways beneath the city.

“Transmissions” is a new installation exploring the concept of Noise as Art. Using naturally occurring white noise, “Transmissions” establishes a new space for audience exploration created by naturally occurring white noise and sounds hidden deep within silence and lost radio signals.

Art SouTerrain runs from February 27 to March 20, 201 and coincides with Montreal En Lumiere and Nuit Blanche Montreal.

If you live in Montreal, or plan to visit, this is a great time be in Montreal!

SubZeroArts is presenting our latest work “TouchCubes” in Montreal as part of Art SouTerrain — an all-underground arts festival taking place in the passageways beneath the city.

“TouchCubes” is a brand new installation featuring a collection of interactive cubes that respond to being touched by illuminating and emitting soft soothing music. In keeping with SubZeroArts’ ideal that the audience should be part of the art, “TouchCubes” allows participants to influence and create their own artistic experience, sharing in the creative process.

Art SouTerrain runs from February 28 to March 15, 2015 and coincides with Montreal En Lumiere and Nuit Blanche Montreal.

If you live in Montreal, or plan to visit, this is a great time be in Montreal!
