Music is ambiance, space … who we are. The musical selections for this year’s annual “Open Day,” draw directly and indelibly not only from the world around us but also from our very hearts.

Musical Ecologies: a multifaceted interaction of artists, performers, and audience members; a musical offering that engages major intellectual movements of the 20th century, including the ecology of mind, as defined by Gregory Bateson in his book “Steps to an ecology of mind”, and Félix Guattari’s “ecosophy.”

Nothing ought to be taken for granted in today’s world: terms such as “sound,” “noise,” “music” must be interrogated and redefined so as to better describe the complexities of our present moment. What constitutes music? What are the practices that shape its performance? How to characterize both the personal and collective experience of listening to it? These are all questions at the heart of the contemporary artistic enterprise, shaped as it is by a range of heterogeneous encounters and conjunctions that, in turn, engender new and captivating musical languages. In short, our “Open Day” musical performances propose a new look at what we understand as sound art.

For yet another year, “Open Day” opens Stegi’s doors to the public and invites young and old alike to roam freely through our spaces in order to forge personal pathways through the multifaceted world of sound.

What is the difference between sound, noise, music?
