"This month's edition of Fire Over Heaven will be a special A/V presentation featuring sound and light works by Lindsay Packer & Lathan Hardy and a new ensemble piece by FOH perennial David First. Lindsay Packer's work moves through the codes of filmmaking, architecture and the analog/digital spectrum with an improviser's sensibility. Often drawing musicians and sound artists into dialogue with her real-time color/light/projection structures, she's collaborated with FOH alum Anaïs Maviel and experimental electronics duo Fan Letters. Here she'll be presenting a new iteration of her Viewfinder project with saxophonist and composer Lathan Hardy, who some FOH fans may remember from his work with the George Steeltoe Ensemble or collaborations with Sean Ali and Flin van Hemmen." -- via Outpost Artists Resources

Live solo performance of Viewfinder at ReVIEWING Black Mountain College, an international conference focusing in 2021 on John Cage’s legacy, co-hosted by the Black Mountain College Museum + Arts Center and UNC Asheville

Viewfinder embraces elements of chance and indeterminacy as live video feedback, analog light projection, and simple props come together in an ad hoc analog/digital interface. Structurally and formally, the performance observes itself through visual choreography that describes a hall of mirrors.

Summer Showers at Essex Flowers/Flowers Fest 2021, Essex Flowers, 19 Monroe Street, NY, NY

The final performance of 3-night Flowers Fest 2021, Lindsay Packer’s Viewfinder embraces elements of chance and indeterminacy. Live video feedback, analog light projection, and simple props come together in an ad hoc analog/digital interface.

Lathan Hardy joins this performance as both artists reset perception in waves and ripples of visual and sonic feedback.
