Description
Summary:Combining their artistic strengths and creative pursuits together, bla(CK)mau conjures sonic spells, vast visualizations, and entrancing events. Their work is steeped in Blackness in all its identities at all times and seeks to explore the realm of placemaking for Black folks. This digital art piece, the bla(CK)mau Xperience, is a sound and video collage experiment consisting of previously created works, new sonics, and bla(CK)mau-isms. This work imagines their character on a journey through time and space where she crosses paths with others on the narrow path. The soundtrack of the experience plays as we join her in experiencing something new in a funkier time and space.
