In partnership with Les amis de la montagne
Coup de patin is an outreach sound project by OBORO media art centre in collaboration with Les amis de la montagne.
Over the course of five workshops led by sound artist Geronimo Inutiq with musician Stephen Beaupré, ten participants were guided through the urban winter wilderness of Mount Royal to collect sound samples, later remixed in OBORO’s studios.
The project return to the top of our city’s eponymous mountain, with a public broadcast of the group’s collective experimental sound creation at the skating rink on March 1, 2018 from 5-8 pm.
The skaters will also be able to enjoy this collective sound creation at the Beaver Lake ice skating rink, from March 2-10, 2018, every hour on the hour from 5-9 pm.
This project is supported by the Ministry of Culture and Communications and the City of Montreal as part of the Montreal Cultural Development Agreement.
