Over two nights, MAY 4 and 5 ROULETTE will present two radically different aspects of Toni Dove’s Spectropia. A sci-fi hybrid with themes of time travel, telepathy, and elements of film noir, Spectropia features live VJs orchestrating onscreen characters through a mix of film, performance, and a system of motion sensing that serves as a cinematic instrument.

Friday, May 4: Roulette presents Toni Dove’s Spectropia, a feature-length live-mix cinema event—a scratchable movie performed by Toni Dove and R. Luke DuBois, artist and project software designer. You’ll see the full feature film in all its crazy complexity—It’s a thrilling cinematic happening. Buy Tickets.
Saturday, May 5: Elliott Sharp composer and multi-instrumentalist, presents his “Spectropia Suite” with The ’31 Band: Anthony Coleman, Curtis Fowlkes, Nate Wooley, Art baron, Steve Sewell, Briggan Kraus, David Hofstra, and Don McKenzie. Barbara Sukowa, guest vocalist, sings the Spectropia song “This Time, That Place.” Toni Dove and R. Luke DuBois craft live video improvisations: a silent movie to accompany the score.
Come and see us over two nights! They wll be very different and we think you’ll like them both!
