Drum Machine Editions + NC Museum of Art 🫱🏻🫲🏼
Join us this Saturday in Raleigh, NC for a collaborative performance with Peder & Hendrik!
Hey, friends of DME!
This coming Saturday at 3pm, Peder & Hendrik—the ongoing art collaboration between DME’s Erik Pedersen and Nathaniel Hendrickson—is performing live at the NC Museum of Art in Raleigh, NC.
If you live near Raleigh or know someone who does, we invite you to join us or share this email with them! Or, you can join via Zoom (the registration link is available on the museum’s site, linked below). This will be a playful, improvisational show where audience participation is encouraged—really, you can even show up with an instrument. Register in advance to secure your spot & receive the free audio recording of the performance afterwards!
Peder & Hendrik is the collaborative performance practice of Erik Pedersen (Asheville, NC) and Nathaniel Hendrickson (Louisville, KY). Drawing on their collective experiences as musicians, visual artists, and storytellers, Peder & Hendrik create performances that rely on improvisation, chance, and physical comedy to playfully blur the lines between performer and spectator.
Live from NCMA begins as an artist lecture on Peder & Hendrik’s seven-year collaborative relationship before dissolving into an improvised audio-visual collaboration between the artists and audience. Through the use of digital and analog cameras, projectors, amplifiers, voice, and instruments, this event highlights the space between traditional performance and unrehearsed experimentation.
Whether you plan to attend in person or via livestream, audience participation is welcome and encouraged! Bring an instrument or an object that makes an interesting sound. Send performance prompts in the livestream chat or write them out on a big hand-painted sign like the one you brought with you to the Eras Tour. Or sit quietly. It’s fine.
No experience required, and all ages are welcome. All registered attendees receive a free digital audio recording of the performance.
