12:30 pm: “REALtime: Sounds from the Weave.” The Rutgers Electro-Acoustic Lab (REAL) presents Sounds from the Weave, four installations of electroacoustic music by women composers from around the globe. Supporting the art exhibition A Complex Weave: Women and Identity in Contemporary Art, these installations showcase the myriad ways that women have expressed issues of their identity and gender through their music. Sixty-nine composers from eighteen countries submitted more than one-hundred works for consideration. Thirty-three works were chosen to represent how women composers from diverse backgrounds have woven the threads of identity into their work. Each installation is one hour in duration. All are welcome to visit the gallery during these times and reflect on the art and take in the sounds. Admission is free.

Unlike traditional academic conferences, this symposium will unite many different voices as a means to engage in intellectual conversation about issues affecting minority young people in urban places. The symposium will highlight the work being done on campus and in our community and set that work within a larger context of practitioners, writers, activists, theorists, and academics.
