SEND + RECEIVE: 10 YEARS OF SOUND 
DIR. CAELUM VATNSDAL | 2009 | CANADA | 83 MIN.

Introduced By crys cole

For 12 years, Winnipeg has hosted send + receive, an internationally acclaimed festival of sound art. Artists and audiences alike have come to Winnipeg and performed, participated and listened. At the same time, there is still a degree of mystery within the community about just what exactly send +receive is all about. To commemorate the history of this important Canadian festival, Winnipeg filmmaker Caelum Vatnsdal has created a feature length documentary tracing its history through with footage of past festival events alongside interviews with past and present Artistic Directors Steve Bates and crys cole. Performance excerpts featured include local and international artists Lee Ranaldo, Ken Gregory, Peter Brotzmann, Tim Hecker, Oval, Blunderspublik, Michael Dumontier, Oren Ambarchi, Kaffe Matthews, Otomo Yoshihide and many more.

Come out for the first local + global public screening of this terrific document! 
See you there!
