Make sure to explore 𝘀𝗼𝘂𝗻𝗱𝗽𝗹𝗮𝘆 𝘀𝗼𝘂𝘁𝗵𝗯𝗮𝘆 in the AGCC gallery, which provides both glimpse and glitch into 20 years of sound art within the context of Long Beach SoundWalk and 𝘀𝗼𝘂𝗻𝗱𝗽𝗲𝗱𝗿𝗼, produced by the artist group FLOOD. Through installations, videos, and performance, the show traces early SoundWalk events (which started in 2004) and bridge time, up to the current 𝘀𝗼𝘂𝗻𝗱𝗽𝗲𝗱𝗿𝗼𝟮𝟬𝟮𝟰 𝗖𝗛𝗔𝗥𝗜𝗩𝗔𝗥𝗜. Visit qr.link/fBptvm for more information about the exhibition.

𝘀𝗼𝘂𝗻𝗱𝗽𝗲𝗱𝗿𝗼 is an annual season of experimental sound art events, presented through November, that investigates the way we perceive and experience sound. 𝘀𝗼𝘂𝗻𝗱𝗽𝗲𝗱𝗿𝗼𝟮𝟬𝟮𝟰 𝗖𝗛𝗔𝗥𝗜𝗩𝗔𝗥𝗜 continues the quest towards an immersive, interactive and living experience, mingling human and non-human inputs, and explores broadening the auditory perception of sound as a meaningful phenomenon towards the physical reception of sound as experiential. 𝙨𝙤𝙪𝙣𝙙𝙥𝙚𝙙𝙧𝙤 𝙞𝙨 𝙣𝙤𝙩 𝙖 𝙢𝙪𝙨𝙞𝙘 𝙚𝙫𝙚𝙣𝙩.

Join the discussion by reading Interior Chinatown, a novel by Charles Yu. Willis Wu does not perceive himself as the protagonist in his own life; he is merely a Generic Asian Man. Sometimes, he gets to be Background Oriental, Making a Weird Face, or even Disgraced Son, but he is always relegated to a prop. Yet every day, he leaves his tiny room in a Chinatown SRO and enters the Golden Palace restaurant, where Black and White, a procedural cop show, is in perpetual production. He is a bit of a player here, too, but he dreams of being Kung Fu Guy–the most respected role anyone who looks like him can attain. Or is it?
