Get ready for a full-throttle dance party where human creativity and machine intelligence collide. Headlining the night is Deep World, a new live audiovisual/AI performance by VJ Übergeek, the long-running performance persona of artist Amy Alexander, joined by DJ monocromo. Picking up where Übergeek’s legendary CyberSpaceLand series (2000–2015) left off, Deep World blends club energy with theatrical spectacle, part live text improv, part VJ set, and part video game. As Übergeek converses with a custom-trained AI built on the words of writers and thinkers who have navigated crisis, the dialogue drives a pulsing, immersive cathartic rave. The party kicks off with high-energy, algorithmically generated sets by Joe Cantrell and Matty Terrones & Victor Castañeda, priming the dance floor with worlds of sound, light, and automation.

Sound artist Marguerite Brown opens the evening with an exploration of the electric guitar as a celestial body, using planetary tuning forks, custom hardware, and extended performance techniques to reveal new resonances and cosmic frequencies. Her work invites listeners to consider sound as both vibration and matter, connecting the earthly and the astronomical. Following Brown, the bi-coastal quartet MOONS —Judith Berkson, Laura Cetilia, Katie Porter, and Christine Tavolacci — presents a set of new compositions born from years of collaboration in experimental music. Their performances traverse chamber textures, electroacoustic landscapes, and subtle improvisations, creating music that is intimate, exploratory, and richly detailed. Together, Brown and MOONS offer an evening that bridges the cosmic and the deeply intimate. Project [BLANK] on Facebook / Instagram
