Threshold celebrates emerging and experimental voices in sound and music performance whose heritage arises from Asia or the Asian diaspora. This evening of performance showcases a labyrinth of mythologies, introspective films, spoken word practices, and the sonic amplifications of materials, such as rice and bamboo, that have been traditionally consumed or used in other contexts. Co-curated by Victoria Pham this program will position audiences to listen deeply to the diversity of sound practices, language and music of Asian-Australian composers and performers. We invite you to experience the work of artists and musicians, Gloria Demillo - poet and playwright, Flora Wong - violin, James Nguyen - filmmaker and artist, Nicholas Ng - erhu, Chloe Chung -dizi/flute plus Jiawei Zhu (dance) and Yanshen Huang (keyboard).
