NYC Sept 2nd – After a four year hiatus, Photon makes its triumphant return. The full a/v experience curated by Ben Klock is an exploration of the monochromatic elegance of white light in riveting interplay with cutting edge techno. Working in collaboration with Berghain lighting designer Lars Murasch and visual artist Xaver Hirsch, Klock has invited a group of Photon regulars and Klockworks affiliates representing the vanguard of modern techno: FJAAK, Stef Mendesidis and Volvox are joined by Washington DC’s Juana. Using a custom lighting installation, Photon transforms Knockdown Center’s Main Hall into a brilliant, shifting web of light.
