The Institute for Creativity, Arts, and Technology (ICAT) and the Moss Arts Center at Virginia Tech presents Cube Fest 2017 with the DJ Maria Chavez on Friday, August 4, 2017 inside The Cube. Cube Fest 2017 is Virginia Tech’s premiere arts and technology event of the summer! Back by popular demand, Cube Fest celebrates imagination and innovation at the intersection of arts and technology by pushing the boundaries of possibility in one of the most technologically advanced performance venues on the planet, the Cube. New York-based sound artist, abstract turntablist, and DJ Maria Chavez will put her unique spin on the Cube by merging the practice of improvisation with the inherently unstable conditions of a turntable. This practice allows accidents to dictate each sound piece alongside her award-winning audio and visual work, creating a full sensory experience of sights and sounds. This second annual festival features more than 30 international artists and combines live performances, classic rock, electroacoustic music, spatial sound, real time motion capture, innovative technologies, and audio/visual elements to create fully immersive, sensory experiences unlike anything else in the world. Tickets can be purchased online, in person at the Moss Arts Center Box Office Monday-Friday from 10 am - 5:30 pm and Saturday 10 am - 4 pm and by phone at 540-231-5300.
