From humble beginnings as a singer-songwriter circle, four Northern Ontario musicians are on a journey together driven by a musical connection that refuses to be ignored. The Hidden Roots Collective includes Rose-Erin Stokes, Brigitte Lebel, Annie Sumi, Holly Cunningham.
With swirling harmonies as tall as the pines of their hometown, Hidden Roots Collective create an immersive listening experience while reinforcing each others unique vocal strengths. Touching on stories of love and self-discovery, their debut album Come Up, Honey celebrates four storylines intertwined through songs rooted in familiar blues and airy folk sensibilities.

Home by Christine Charette
Christine Charette’s sound art installation “Home” wanders through forest metaphors inspired by “women’s work” in sight and sound. In scope are the co-existence of the object and the domestic, the parallels of mending in the home and in the environment, and what that can look and sound like. Charette’s installation is meant to unwind you and hopefully carry you to places that move you in your own relationship to what “Home” has meant or can mean to you.
1) a specific category of sounds invading all the space;
2) opposition of the different materials, spreaded in different area of the diffusion system, circular movements, echoes…

Readings from the local environment using a triangle mesh interface. Visitors will have a chance to record a simple composition which will serve as a document of the combined living presence of the environment, the participants, and myself. Some of the results will be presented as animations on my website (www.BARFFF.com/wr-nettt-technology-and-wilderness/). This is part of a continuing investigation into the human psyche – consciousness, using artwork as the medium. The forest provides networks rich beyond comprehension. The tools of scientific computing offer an opportunity to discern some of the information, messages, and forms that are carried along them.
This is the second part in my piece Hidden Sounds which is a series of installations that uncover sounds not audible to the human ear. The work uses unconventional methods for capturing ultrasound, material-born sound, and electromagetic radio waves. Discarded materials that have interesting sound properties are collected from my home and nearby environs and then incorporated into the design of the sound installation. Hidden Sounds is generously supported by the Ontario Arts Council’s Northern Arts program.
