Musician, composer, and multidisciplinary artist Preston Swirnoff will present "SILO Chords, a site-specific installation and performance in Bread & Salt’s Silo Room. Swirnoff’s piece is written for choir, organ, and analog tape loops. He will be joined by members of San Diego New Verbal Workshop, a community choir that performs contemporary and avant-garde vocal music. Swirnoff’s composition explores the many surprising possibilities of the chord and the unique acoustic properties of the recently re-activated silo space, built over 100 years ago with 40 foot high flour tanks once used by the old bread factory. DJ’s from Particle FM will spin records on the patio, with a special menu of food and drinks served by Alchemy. This installation/performance continues a series of sound and visual art works by Swirnoff in unconventional spaces over the past year that has taken him to an ancient cave in Greece, a 12th century castle in Sicily, a high-rise rooftop in Sofia, Bulgaria, and a giant walled garden in Oaxaca. His immersive and intimate sound works have been described in connection to a lineage of site-specific composers such as La Monte Young, Pauline Oliveros, Iannis Xenakis, Alvin Curran, and György Ligeti.
