I couldn't attend Audiopollination tonight as I have to work on Friday nights in Spring/Summer - but I did manage to start watching the livestream at 8:30. I want to thank Fahmid for doing a great job hosting and Matt for the sound and video - it is really amazing sounding on livestream (and he has added a pidgeon video in the breaks that is very funny). I highly recommend that if you missed the show that you watch the live stream at some date.

This is coming up
There is a new improv series at the Tranzac.
PROMPT is a new series that is open to anyone who is interested in learning to improvise in a group setting. Participants take a card before each session with a prompt, to guide their process. These prompts are written out by the established musicians who have helped build (and continue to maintain) the improvised music scene at The Tranzac.
The video has been edited for Audiopollination April 2023:
