SUMMARY:From Olmsted to Nakaya: Art & Design of the Back Bay Fens
DESCRIPTION:A guided walk through the centuries of a historic landscape designed by Frederick Law Olmsted with stop at artist Fujiko Nakaya’s Fog x Canopy. Hear the story of how Frederick Law Olmsted transformed an area of polluted waterways and mudflats into a scenic fens and the later 20th century revisions that resulted in the landscape we see today. \nThis tour is offered in collaboration with the Fenway Alliance’s Opening Our Doors. \nMeet at the Shattuck Visitor Center\, 125 The Fenway\, Boston\, MA 02115. Free and open to the public. Bring a refillable water bottle and wear comfortable walking shoes.

SUMMARY:Lavender Ruins
DESCRIPTION:Please note: Lavender Ruins may not play if Fog x Ruins is offline. Click here to check on the status of Fog x Ruins and other fog sculptures. \nAn evening concert sound installation by Neil Leonard made in response to Fog x Ruins\, Fujiko Nakaya’s site-specific fog sculpture for Franklin Park’s Overlook Shelter Ruins\, the site where Elma Lewis invited Duke Ellington to perform annually for Playhouse in the Park. \nLeonard’s composition fills the site of Nakaya’s dancing fog and lighting design by Shiro Takatani\, with sound that also pays tribute to the visionary concepts of Fujiko Nakaya and the sonic imagination of Duke Ellington. The work revisits selected themes by Ellington including Lady of the Lavender Mist\, The Kissing Mist\, Atmosphere (Moon Mist)\, A Blue Fog That You Can Almost See Through (Transblucency)\, The Fog That Clouds It (Schwiphti). As these titles suggest\, the music is atmospheric\, lush and mist-like. The sound is reminiscent of Duke Ellington’s Boston-area born saxophonists\, Harry Carney and Johnny Hodges\, who recorded these themes with Ellington\, and performed with his orchestra in the Ruins. \nThis 20-minute sound installation\, playing at 5:00pm and 6:00pm\, comprises an array of speakers located at the Overlook Shelter Ruins surrounding the fog sculpture and audience. \n\nPresentation of this program is made possible with generous support from Barbara and Amos Hostetter\, Eugene M. Lang Foundation and an anonymous donor.

SUMMARY:HERON
DESCRIPTION:A sound and dance piece by performance duo Lord and June\, HERON interacts with Nakaya’s large-scale fog sculptures at the Leverett Pond site in Brookline. HERON features an ambient sound composition\, spatialized by key participants wearing small wireless speakers housed within sculptural vessels and following the performance as it meanders along the path. Different sections of the soundscape explore the types of tonalities that blend with the different environments: the large twisting trees moving in the wind\, the stillness of the open water\, and the movement of waterfowl on and above the pond. \nThe scene will follow the movement of a solo dancer (Sara June) who will create sculptural forms with her body reminiscent of the blue heron and other water fowl who dwell in this environment. HERON will take place an hour prior to sunset as a temporal element of the work includes the passage of the sun from just above to just below the horizon line. The final minutes of the performance will occur in near-darkness. \nHERON will be cancelled in the event of heavy rain. \n\nThis program is made possible with generous support from Barbara and Amos Hostetter and Eugene M. Lang Foundation.

SUMMARY:Music for Ground and Atmosphere
DESCRIPTION:For years\, Ben Cosgrove has devoted his career to composing and performing music that reflects and considers landscape and place in environments all over the world. Intrigued by the variety of human responses to physical geography\, he has used music both as an opportunity to explore landscapes and as a means of encouraging audiences to critically consider the shape\, contour\, boundaries\, and meaning of the environments they inhabit. \nMusic for Ground and Atmosphere is a 45-minute live performance on keyboard and guitar interwoven with live improvisation and pre-composed material to respond musically to Olmsted and Nakayas’ spatial & artistic decisions. Performances will take place at 4:00pm and 5:00pm. \n\nPresentation of this program is made possible with generous support from Barbara and Amos Hostetter\, Eugene M. Lang Foundation and an anonymous donor.

SUMMARY:Partial View
DESCRIPTION:Actors Raúl Avila\, Shelby Hylton\, and Raven Jalise Pace use recorded interviews as source material in Tim Ney’s Partial View. Some stories of the Fenway will be used verbatim\, others will be interpreted in voice\, movement and sound. Memories\, like fog\, can be temporal and fleeting. The piece offers spectators only partial views\, not a full proscenium stage narrative. \nThe site-specific piece is based on the Fenway Memory Project\, an oral history of the neighborhood.  It was created for Fujiko Nakaya’s Fog x Canopy installation in the Back Bay Fens. Partial View is presented by [ bitsandflow ] with funding from the Emerald Necklace Conservancy and the Mission Hill / Fenway Neighborhood Trust. \n\nThis program is made possible with generous support from Barbara and Amos Hostetter and Eugene M. Lang Foundation.

SUMMARY:Gong Soundscape
DESCRIPTION:Playing gong\, singing bowls\, and bells\, Nancy Aleo will create a gong soundscape responding to the shifting wind\, the flowing fog\, the hissing sculpture\, voices\, and the natural sounds of the place. Meditative and otherworldly at times\, each of the five performances will be unique. Respectfully honoring Fujiko Nakaya’s visionary work\, the sounds will expand and drift around the space\, then fade similar to the fog moving and dissipating over the landscape. \n\nThis program is made possible with generous support from Barbara and Amos Hostetter and Eugene M. Lang Foundation.

SUMMARY:Lavender Ruins
DESCRIPTION:Please note: Lavender Ruins may not play if Fog x Ruins is offline. Click here to check on the status of Fog x Ruins and other fog sculptures. \nAn evening concert sound installation by Neil Leonard made in response to Fog x Ruins\, Fujiko Nakaya’s site-specific fog sculpture for Franklin Park’s Overlook Shelter Ruins\, the site where Elma Lewis invited Duke Ellington to perform annually for Playhouse in the Park. \nLeonard’s composition fills the site of Nakaya’s dancing fog and lighting design by Shiro Takatani\, with sound that also pays tribute to the visionary concepts of Fujiko Nakaya and the sonic imagination of Duke Ellington. The work revisits selected themes by Ellington including Lady of the Lavender Mist\, The Kissing Mist\, Atmosphere (Moon Mist)\, A Blue Fog That You Can Almost See Through (Transblucency)\, The Fog That Clouds It (Schwiphti). As these titles suggest\, the music is atmospheric\, lush and mist-like. The sound is reminiscent of Duke Ellington’s Boston-area born saxophonists\, Harry Carney and Johnny Hodges\, who recorded these themes with Ellington\, and performed with his orchestra in the Ruins. \nThis 20-minute sound installation\, playing at 6:00pm and 7:00pm\, comprises an array of speakers located at the Overlook Shelter Ruins surrounding the fog sculpture and audience. \n\nPresentation of this program is made possible with generous support from Barbara and Amos Hostetter\, Eugene M. Lang Foundation and an anonymous donor.

SUMMARY:No Data is An Island
DESCRIPTION:Our landscape and public spaces are changing fast and so is how we look at them. And not only us. Can one visit a place without ever being in it? Only through the Cloud? Ofri Cnaani’s No Data is an Island is a collaborative encounter that is informed by current reviewing and sharing tourist economies that allow us to ‘know better’ and to ‘go better’\, as well as civilian imaging technologies\, and local eye-witnesses. The multi-faced digital participatory piece will exercise the meaning of visiting and knowing a place: physically\, visually\, digitally and mentally. New images will slowly emerge\, surfacing new connections between places and people. A mind-map of on an island in an age of hyper-connectivity. \nTo fully participate in this performance experience\, download WhatsApp and participate at https://chat.whatsapp.com/7l1xwJG8ZR3Cf9EXoKyTqt.  \n\nPresentation of this program is made possible with generous support from Barbara and Amos Hostetter\, Eugene M.

SUMMARY:practices in the imaginary: reading - Luke Martin
DESCRIPTION:practices in the imaginary: reading is a piece for two people\, performing slowly\, quietly within Fujiko Nakaya’s Fog x Beach sculpture. \nLuke Martin is an experimental composer\, performer\, and poet currently living in Boston\, MA. His work focuses on the concepts of silence\, blandness\, and social sculpture and is primarily interested in exploring limits of perception and methods of re-evaluating (and altering) processes of everyday life\, i.e.\, ways of being in the world. \nSome (current) artistic concerns include: composition as engagement in process(es); composition as perception / attention; being in the world; consideration of performance / composition from a point of silence or doing nothing; critiquing the self-desire to do something (more); listening; field recording; composition as fundamentally social; sound as always happening; sound as incidental / by-product of (other) processes; how we engage in pre-determined or taken-for-granted processes constantly; also\, constant creation of (new) processes or compositions by everyone/thing everywhere; layering of communal activity located on the edges or outside of perception; meeting / communicating / seeing / listening / being in a fog; silence as fog; silence as being in the world; position of relationality between subject and object; being bored or engaging with boredom as being in the world / being creative; potential. \n\nThis program is supported in part by a grant from the Emerald Necklace Conservancy generously provided by Barbara and Amos Hostetter and the Eugene M. Lang Foundation. Additional support is provided by the Boston Foundation\, as well as by a grant from the Boston Cultural Council\, a local agency which is funded by the Massachusetts Cultural Council.

SUMMARY:Wayfinder
DESCRIPTION:A sound and dance performance by composer Mattia C. Maurée\, Wayfinder observes how many cultures learned from nature to navigate by starlight.

Finding themselves connected by a thread\, they find their way\, connection\, and some kind of peace. \nFeaturing 4 performances at 5:00\, 5:30\, 6:00\, and 6:30. This performance is weather-dependent and will be cancelled in the event of rain. \n\nThis program is made possible with generous support from Barbara and Amos Hostetter and Eugene M.

SUMMARY:Accomplices
DESCRIPTION:Designed and produced by artists Andy Graydon and Isabel Beavers\, Accomplices is a series of six printed postcards that invite visitors themselves to perform small micro-compositions on each site in response to and collaboration with each of Nakaya’s sculptures. One card is available at each location of Nakaya’s sculptures\, as well as at the Emerald Necklace Conservancy’s Shattuck Visitor Center\, and is designed specifically for that park site and sculpture. The front of each postcard features a color image of a medley of objects gleaned from the site where the card is found: a gum wrapper; a misplaced earring; a river-worn stone; a crumpled leaf or a goose feather. Inspired by George Brecht’s “Solitaire” set of artist’s cards\, the arrangements raise up the value of quotidian objects and of simple moments of attention and discovery in the field. All six cards can be placed side-by-side to become one panoramic image. \nThe reverse side of each card features a short text-based score that instructs visitors to imagine\, move\, listen\, or engage with the fog sculptures and the park environment in ways that heighten their sensitivity to\, and immersion in\, their surroundings. In this way\, each visitor is included as a performer of the work itself\, as a creative author of their own experience of the fog sculptures\, the park’s landscape\, and in moments of their daily experience. \n\nThis program is made possible with generous support from Barbara and Amos Hostetter and Eugene M. Lang Foundation.

SUMMARY:Lavender Ruins
DESCRIPTION:Please note: Lavender Ruins may not play if Fog x Ruins is offline. Click here to check on the status of Fog x Ruins and other fog sculptures. \nAn evening concert sound installation by Neil Leonard made in response to Fog x Ruins\, Fujiko Nakaya’s site-specific fog sculpture for Franklin Park’s Overlook Shelter Ruins\, the site where Elma Lewis invited Duke Ellington to perform annually for Playhouse in the Park. \nLeonard’s composition fills the site of Nakaya’s dancing fog and lighting design by Shiro Takatani\, with sound that also pays tribute to the visionary concepts of Fujiko Nakaya and the sonic imagination of Duke Ellington. The work revisits selected themes by Ellington including Lady of the Lavender Mist\, The Kissing Mist\, Atmosphere (Moon Mist)\, A Blue Fog That You Can Almost See Through (Transblucency)\, The Fog That Clouds It (Schwiphti). As these titles suggest\, the music is atmospheric\, lush and mist-like. The sound is reminiscent of Duke Ellington’s Boston-area born saxophonists\, Harry Carney and Johnny Hodges\, who recorded these themes with Ellington\, and performed with his orchestra in the Ruins. \nThis 20-minute sound installation\, playing at 6:00pm and 7:00pm\, comprises an array of speakers located at the Overlook Shelter Ruins surrounding the fog sculpture and audience. \n\nPresentation of this program is made possible with generous support from Barbara and Amos Hostetter\, Eugene M. Lang Foundation and an anonymous donor.
