Sixty On Stage: Sonic Becomings

A night of sound and celebration with Sixty Inches From Center.

Join Sixty Inches From Center for Sixty on Stage: Sonic Becomings at Elastic Arts, a night of music performances with artists featured in Tuning Away from Mechanized Listening, an editorial series that dives into the work and minds of musicians and sound artists from across the Midwest.

This edition of Sixty On Stage features interdisciplinary artist and experimental turntableist Allen Moore, the queer, non-binary and women-centered traditional maqam ensemble TAYF طَيْف (presented by BIYA BIYA), computer musician, improviser, programmer, and scientist Hugo Flores Garcia with Samuel Osorio (presented by Atmospheric Music Alliance), and a closing set from beloved WHPK veteran DJ Track Master Scott.

And It’s Sixty’s SWEET SIXTEEN!
We will also be celebrating sixteen years of publishing–or Sixty’s Sweet Sixteen–with an tempting lineup of raffle items, a flirty Find & Seek missed connections booth, and a mini music market featuring WHPK, BIYA BIYA, and Atmospheric Music Alliance!

All tickets sold will come with a raffle ticket! All funds raised will go towards Sixty’s editorial team and contributors, and our ongoing work to support Midwest artists, writers, and culture. Come celebrate this milestone with us!

ASL interpretation and masks will be provided–get more details via our Accessibility Guide. Tasty non-alcoholic drinks will be provided and you're welcome to BYOB!

Sixty On Stage is a reading and performance series that brings artists off of the published pages of Sixty and onto stages across Chicago. Stay tuned for the next one by joining our newsletter or following us on IG.
