North Bay Film Festival 2019 | November 15-17
By Land and Water: Live Performance by Geronimo Inutiq
Friday, November 15th from 6-9pm at the White Water Gallery
“By Land and Water” is a live audiovisual performance by Geronimo Inutiq featuring ambient electronic music and manipulated video footage. It takes the audience across northern Ontario roads and waterways, extending beyond to other provinces. The performance uses slowed down, manipulated, and rearranged video segments to form an abstract visual narrative focused on the countryside. Ethereal melodies, drones, and audio from computer and consumer keyboards are enhanced with effects pedals and delivered through a multichannel sound system, prompting contemplation on travel, nature, solitude, and our connection to the environment and country.
