Founded in 2017, pink noise is a semi-annual art happening that brings together femme & femme identified experimental electronic musicians, video artists, witches, and art freaks to manifest the wildest performances Portland can imagine.
Portland’s #1 witchual glitchual ritual brings you an abundance of experimental music, video, and spells!
pink noise vi: fantasy embodiment
co-presented by: Pink Noise, Holocene, & Northwest Film Forum
your favorite party of the year is back! Portland’s #1 witchual glitchual ritual is bringing you some of the best talent on the West Coast straight to your computer. Cast a digi-spell with us on the Spring Equinox (March 20).
When you hear fantasy embodiment, what do you think? In some major ways, we’ve all gone through transmutations throughout the pandemic. We may have questioned, where did my body go? Where are all of the other bodies I used to be near? We may have hidden ourselves away, or put ourselves in painful, scary, yet, necessary situations. We may have longed for touch, more than our own touch. Our bodily interactions have mostly been mediated, through masks, screens, boundaries….even now… fantasy embodiment can be an escape from our bodies, from our realities. A time to fully embrace the absurd, come out of our cocoons, and show off our new transformations.
