About the event...
Kicking off the final week of Back to School Field Trip, we’re honoured to present the debut of ‘Otherwise’, an experimental documentary film by Mike Filippov. Having carefully and diligently captured our local scene of experimental artists over the past few years, his improvised film on free improvisation comes to life on our DIY screen at a park, featuring live accompaniment.
Some words from director Mike Filippov…
"Otherwise" represents all the emergent possibilities that everywhere lie in wait. Documenting them over a year in Toronto's free improvised music scene began a process which will culminate in a performative exhibition featuring insights from Colin Cudmore, Dee Dee Decay, Karen Ng and Marilyn Yogarajah and a ton of music speaking for itself. Like the music it represents, no exhibition of Otherwise will ever be the same.
