Chaz Underriner, an associate professor of digital arts at Stetson University and the 2023–24 Fulbright-Q21/MuseumsQuartier Artist-in-Residence, is presenting a dual lecture-concert.
This concert is a survey of Chaz's works for guitar, video and electronics.
As a guitarist, electroacoustic composer, and video artist, this multimedia setup is a core part of Chaz's artistic work that has evolved throughout time, similar in a way to solo piano works by pianist-composers in the 18th and 19th centuries.
This program traces the evolution of Chaz's aesthetic and technical interests over the past decade: the earliest work explores a very simple and static use of video and field recordings, the middle works utilize more color and experimental film/video techniques, and the most recent piece uses live video techniques in tribute to The Interaction of Color by Josef Albers. What is consistent between all the works is a sense of dreaminess that creates a space for contemplation for the audience.
