What?

Future of the Lab is an experiment in collaborative improv composition. A mashup amoeba of stylistic intent with the vertebrous center of a single compositional/conducting mind. A number of musicians from different cultural and stylistic backgrounds assemble for periodic residencies to explore the idea of composition through playing. The “scores” for our music take the form of conducting games, improv exercises, and on-the-spot songwriting sprints whose methodology will continue to evolve and mature with each session.
