May Liberation Series: The Shape of Sound

May 1 @ 6:00 pm 9:00 pm EDT

Ever wondered what sound could look like? If you’re curious to find out, join community at The Shape of Sound at The LP Storefront! Together, we will blend visualized sound, somatics, language, and tone throughout the African Diaspora into new original rhythms. We won’t just hear new sounds–we’ll get to see them!

Using tools such as a Stylophone Theremin and speakers paired with a projector, we will examine the shape of sound vibrations and the connections between language and tone throughout the African Diaspora to create new works. First Fridays, or Liberation Series, is a monthly, artist-led, community-building gathering hosted in our Bed-Stuy storefront. Each season is guided by an artist working at the intersection of culture, imagination, and collective power.

This is your sign to gather with The LP, reflect with others, and co-create rhythms that will stretch your imagination beyond the limits of time and space!
