ROULETTE, Brooklyn, New York, as fiscal sponsor for Maria Chavez, Brooklyn, New York, received $12,000 to support the creation and recording of Chavez’s Tactile Peripheries #1-3, an interactive album/sculpture that can be listened to and viewed in different ways: as regular playback material, as a DJ tool, and as a sound sculpture. Composer, sound artist, and abstract turntablist Maria Chavez is influenced by improvisation and contemporary art. Her compositions, sound installations, conceptual objects, and live turntable performances focus on the benefits of accidents and chance. Roulette’s mission is to provide opportunities for innovative composers, musicians, sound artists, and interdisciplinary collaborators to present their work in accessible, appropriate, and professional productions.
