Held on the unceded, ancestral territories of the xʷməθkʷəy̓əm (Musqueam), Sḵwx̱wú7mesh (Squamish), and səlilwətaɬ (Tsleil-Waututh) Nations, The Emerging Stage is a performance series that features emerging performance and visual artists from around the Vancouver art scene. Events are programmed with as wide of a variety as possible, providing artists a safe space for free expression and audiences an unexpected experience where anything could happen. The Emerging Stage on November 8th will incorporate live projected visuals and musical performances, creating improvisational collaboration across disciplines.
Introducing the Musicians!
Atticus
Atticus Gilchrist is a third year artist from the Music and Sound major interested in experimental sound, film scoring, guitar and DAW production. He is from Victoria where he learned guitar, piano and basic music production. For his Emerging Stage performance, Atticus is collaborating with Mars De Menezes from the Production & Design major. Together, they play with circadian rhythms using a visual atmosphere and an ambient lullaby with breaks of live mixed fixed media.
Chaucer Gilson
Chaucer Gilson is an electroacoustic music composer and sound artist based in Vancouver, BC — the unceded, traditional territories of the xʷməθkwəy̓əm (Musqueam), Skwxwú7mesh (Squamish), and Səl̓ílwətaɬ (Tsleil-Waututh) Nations. His experimental sound practice coalesces generative music, minimalism, and media archeology into rhythmic soundscapes highlighted by eclectic live performances. Chaucer’s recent sonic endeavors investigate the physicality of bygone analog technologies in unconventional and performative gestures. Community engagement is also at the forefront of Chaucer’s artistic practice having released compilations of underrepresented student sound artists, publishing S.C.A.M. Magazine, and screenprinting for Vancouver based record label + artist imprint, Second Spring.
Saving Grace
Saving Grace is an indie-emo-pop band from Vancouver. Their poetic lyrics, punchy guitar, and skilled voices have crafted their unique sound. They are incredibly grateful to be playing shows and writing music on the stolen and unceded territories of the xʷməθkʷəy̓əm (Musqueam), Sḵwx̱wú7mesh (Squamish), and səlilwətaɬ (Tsleil-Waututh) Nations.
