The first of two solo performances by Carlos Grasso for the debut of Antennae Works: Signals live arts magazine variety show presented at Castillo Blanco in New Orleans, La. The theme for the evening was miniatures under the banner of “I Am An Important Giant”. This short film was live scored by Carlos and created using the vusicianship process.

ANTENNA WORKS: Signals  “Tiny Sounds”,  April 9, 2016
The second of two performances from the evening is a debut sound collage piece featuring live and recordings of low level sounds captured on sensitive microphones. Layering one sound phrase at a time, the intent was to show how the little things add up to be the big things in life.
