In Alison O\u2019Daniel\u2019s stunning, sonically rich film, the story of Nyke Prince, a Deaf drummer based in Los Angeles, intersects with that of a marching band coming to terms with the loss of its most sonorous instruments. Produced as a series of distinct episodes, the project has grown\u00a0in part out of a series of\u00a0collaborations with Deaf sound artist Christine Sun Kim, hearing painter and musician Steve Roden, and the late hearing composer Ethan Frederick Greene.\u00a0In English and ASL with English captions.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
