String Quartet + A Short Science Chat (SF)

Submitted by the Event Organizer

Musicians and scientists join forces to think about Waves 

Join artists of Wave Chamber Collective in welcoming three local experts giving short talks on different forms of WAVES! One ocean-inspired (and tequila-based) cocktail is included in your ticket. This is also the soft-launch of our brand-new Patreon, with each wave corresponding to a different level.

In a new format, each scientist/engineer will speak for 5-7 on their wave and the musicians will perform music chosen inspired by it.

Alex Ritter, PhD is perfectly poised to discuss LIGHT WAVES. His research applies quantitative imaging approaches to visualize and measure effects of perturbation on biological systems with a special focus on live cell imaging of cytotoxic T lymphocyte (CTL) killing of cancer cells.

Tomas Wischerath aka Habitaat will be speaking to us about SOUND WAVES. A sound engineer, composer, and DJ that uses a creative mixture of natural sounds, hyphy melodies, and euphoric dance beats to bridge the gap between the natural world and electronic dance music. Brazil-born and Bay Area raised, HABITAAT’s unique production is influenced by Hip-Hop, cinematic movie scores, and underground club music, with the aim to make you feel like you are surrounded by nature.

We’ll be announcing our third speaker, who will be focused on WATER WAVES soon.

Our Quartet is comprised of three musicians who kicked off the inaugural Wave Chamber Collective concert back in September: Sam Weiser, Pauline Kempf, and Nao Kubota joined by Saul Richmond-Rakerd in his debut concert.
