For Soundwave ((5)) HUMANITIES, an evening of electro acoustic music and Zen, sponsored by The Bold Italic.

This year’s Soundwave, a summer-long, multi-venue biennial of innovative sound, art, and music, based in San Francisco, explores “our sonic connections to the human condition.” On Saturday, Soundwave ((5)) HUMANITIES turns its exploration to the intersection of electro acoustic music with Zen practice and practice settings.

Building on last year’s Meditations on San Francisco, merging artistic and spiritual worlds, Revelation Zen was curated by Danny Paul Grody and is sponsored by The Bold Italic.

Flavorpill describes it as “a rare opportunity to experience traditional sitting, walking, and chanting Zen practice with a rather unorthodox twist: … music that is hypnotic, dreamy, and immaculately textured.” Join us for a summer evening of gentle revelations.
