Wednesday, June 24, 2015, 6-8pm

A program of The Flesh of the World

Featuring Wendy Jacob and members of the University of Toronto Varsity Blues Basketball Team and the Senior Men’s National Team of Wheelchair Basketball Canada

Concealed under the floor are four large, electro-mechanical transducers and two power amps that carry vibrational signals through the floor’s surface. During the opening, the performance will feature members of the University of Toronto Varsity Blues Basketball Team and the Senior Men’s National Team of Wheelchair Basketball Canada. Two basketball players at a time will activate the floor with their dribbling. By stepping on the floor, visitors can “hear” the ball in play through their bodies.
