Bang on a Can Music Series: Kamran Sadeghi

Sunday, July 14, 2024
3:30 pm–4:30 pm
Tickets include Museum admission / Free for members

Bang on a Can and The Noguchi Museum present a monthly series of live performances in the Museum’s first floor galleries.

About this program: “Memory Landscapes is a composition for modular synthesis and delay loops that explores the flow of time through the layering, fragmentation, and disintegration of live sonic textures. It reflects on how we, both individually and collectively, experience the past, present, and future, shaped by personal moments and the powerful forces that alter our world.” –Kamran Sadeghi


Kamran Sadeghi creates at the intersections of music, interdisciplinary art, and curation, utilizing multi-channel composition, moving image, and architecture alongside customized software, modular synthesis, transducers, and field recordings. Born in Iran and raised in the United States, Sadeghi emerged from Seattle’s live experimental music scene in 2005, sharing stages with Tim Hecker, William Basinski, and Vladislav Delay. While touring with the contemporary dance company Zoe Juniper in 2009, Sadeghi relocated to New York City with one foot in Europe, working for Morton Subotnick and the multi-channel Sound Art gallery Diapason, while also performing at venues such as Issue Project Room, Experimental Intermedia (Phil Niblock’s loft), and The Stone. His credits include collaborations with Patti Smith, Sasha Waltz, Jean-Luc Godard, and Zimoun, released on labels such as Vinyl Factory, Sacred Bones, Superpang, Apollo Records, LINE, and Sternberg Press. Sadeghi’s performances, soundtracks, and installations have been featured at venues and events worldwide, including Kraftwerk Berlin, the Louvre Museum, HKW, CTM Festival, Funkhaus Berlin, Centre Pompidou, Berghain, and the Berlin Biennale. kamransadeghi.com
