Ensemble Offspring presents a multimedia evening of music and image as part of the New Music Network's inaugural New Music Now series. The event focuses on the premiere of The Cattle Raid of Cooley or The Show, a double-narrative singerless opera created by ensemble co-founder Matthew Shlomowitz with digital artist Scott Wilson and writer Allison Carruth. The program features further music-image collaborations including renowned digital artist Justine Cooper and Barton Staggs and the first audio-visual rendering of Morton Feldman's Instruments 1 with visual artist James McGrath.
