Laetitia Morais, Missing for 10 Years

A December 2011 performance articulating concepts described enigmatically by the artist as:: the anxiety caused by the lack of bonds when crossing an ocean, with 10 years of absence defined by law to the term of a life existence; sea salt is the most relevant element in this piece, as it shapes the sound, according to its density.

Laetitia Morais is a visual and media artist from Portugal interested in the dialogue between physical and digital computing. A professor of Art & Design and Comunication & Media Design at the College of Education in Coimbra, she develops her work through the studies of digital systems and their relation with biological laws.

RADIO SERIES

A radio series of programs recorded at Experimental Intermedia Foundation (EI), the legendary, influential downtown New York loft venue, incubator, showcase, and community center for composers and experimenters in the arts, known for being first and best at presenting (and recording!) new music and new media since the 70s. The concert series is programmed and produced by composer Phill Niblock who has been directing presentations at Experimental Intermedia since 1973 (well over 1,000 performances) and he is the curator of EI's XI Records label. In 1993, he opened a satellite space with window gallery in Ghent, Belgium. For more on the concert series, recordings, archives, and other intermedia adventures of Phill Niblock around the globe visit the Experimental Intermedia Foundation site. This radio project is a partnership between Experimental Intermedia Foundation and The Clocktower Gallery and its radio station at ARTonAIR.org. The series is produced and managed with the generous efforts of Byron Westbrook.
