color:#222222;background:white" class="">“Ice” is a collaboration between composer
Jimmie LeBlanc, media artist Fareena Chanda and physicist Stephen Morris exploring
the formation of icicles. In this project, projections, live performance and
music show the constantly changing state of ice, and turn its formation into an
event that can be perceived multisensorially, rather than just visually. Beyond
the poetry and the aesthetics evoked by this project, one is wondering whether
similar practices hold the potential offer new ways to observe, perceive and
understand natural phenomena. “Ice” was premiered by Continuum Ensemble at the
Subtle Technologies Festival 2015.</span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height:115%"><img class="" apple-inline="yes" id="C93BC395-B5F3-4375-895E-4B88C8F29020" height="622" width="480" apple-width="yes" apple-height="yes" src="cid:eaac244e892ebc68ee4cbfa566e0d0a8"></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height:115%"><b class=""><span style="font-size:9.0pt;

University Schulich School of Music, honing his skills under the guidance of
such composers as Brian Ferneyhough, Michaël Lévinas, and Philippe Leroux. His
music has been played by Ensemble Contrechamps, Esprit Orchestra, Quatuor
Bozzini, among others, and while his approach to composition develops along the
lines of a capture of the fundamental forces that traverse our bodies and
selves to become sound, his theoretical research is involved with Deleuzean
philosophy and its implications for music.</span><span style="font-size:10.0pt;
