Union by Rob Piilonen and Matt Miller July 27, 2008
Toronto, ON, Ontario
$10 or free with festival pass
Union is a portrait of the TTC subway system. Using recordings of the actual system presented in different permutations, the system is heard moving, fluctuating, and going about a typical day with Union Station treated as the center. Meanwhile, the flute represents a real time journey on the subway from Donlands station to Union. Effects and live processing weave the improvised flute into the sonic texture of the subway system, and the live and recorded components interact, ultimately coming together at the titular station.

We are having to change our colo provider, this was unplanned for! Person who was doing the main sysadmin duty and provided the host, suddenly stopped, He maybe planned it but did not give us much warning.
We hope things will be changed soon!
