Acclaimed new music composer/electronic percussionist Amy Knoles and butoh dance theater artist Michael Sakamoto join forces in a program of new works combining visceral movement, vast soundscapes and inventive costumes. Includes “Sacred Cow,” an exploration of sacred and profane ritual forms, and “Desert(s),” a multimedia journey through love, loss and the landscape of the heart.
