Launch of NOW.HERE.THIS.

Click here for the trailer. 

NOW.HERE.THIS., Upstream Music’s first video documentary, produced and directed by award winning filmmaker Christopher Spencer-Lowe, is a streaming music performance documentary that uses chance operations and randomizing algorithms to create a new and unique experience every time it’s seen. In the spirit of aleatoric (created with random elements) music pioneer John Cage, NOW.HERE.THIS celebrates the improvisational form and philosophy of being in the moment while featuring the diverse music and ideas of six talented Nova Scotia/ Mi'kma'ki based composers: Alan Syliboy, Amy Brandon, Geordie Haley, India Gailey, Mohammad Sahraei and Samantha Wilson.

Reception for all musicians and patrons: A reception celebrating the start of another fabulous Open Waters Festival. An opportunity to meet the artists that make the Open Waters Festival the polar bear dip of the new music season.
