With enough volume, architecture sings in the form of resonance.
RESONANCE is a celebration of big sound in big space, featuring pipe organ with various electro-acoustic instrumentations.
Listeners will experience the tandem power of Woodlawn Hall with its pipe organ, supported by synthesizers, guitars, cello, and more as summoned by WOYNICH, Evan Hjort, Sue Ann Harkey, and Phylyps Hue.
WOYNICH:

Recently declassified NSA documents suggest local Seattle artists Cami Flage and Matthew Emerson Brown have been compromised by the entity as a result of Earth Portal 333 opening for regular maintenance.

Cami Flage is a [REDACTED] who plays keyboards, synthesizers, and drum machines in Seattle. A classically trained pianist turned improviser, she also builds customized music technology devices and makes visual art. True to her name, she is most often seen wearing camouflage." -Artist Bio
"Another spin-off project from the minds behind Seattle record label and event crew, Apt E—Cameron Kelley (tondiue) and Max Washburn conjure everything from harmonious symmetry to angular discord, beamed to earth from their universe of 60s psychedelia, 90s chillout CDs and, of course, the timeless sensibilities of dub music. Cameron and Max are co-founders and organizing committee members for Ground Hum, an annual festival of experimental, ambient, and improvised electroacoustic music here in Seattle." - Artist Bio
"Sue Ann Harkey has been a part of Seattle and New York's underground music and visual arts scenes for decades. Her work, which has been referred to as "futurist folk," blends philosophical and political lyrics with improvised music inspired by free jazz, electronic, folk, and Middle Eastern and African elements. Harkey discovered improvisational music’s power in 1979, when she began playing guitar with friends; this led to her exploration of the harp-guitar and the 12-string guitar, which she plays with mallets, bows, plectrums, and rods, and which also features alternate tunings and metal discs woven between the strings. By 1980, Harkey formed the cassette label/political pamphlet distributor Cityzens for Non-Linear Futures (CNLF) and the improv group Audio Letter. Since 2023, Sue Ann Harkey has been accompanied by tondiue and Lori Goldston in live improvisational free-psychedelic music performances in unique venues around Seattle, with an album documenting these recent explorations to follow in 2024." - Artist Bio
