A good snort: Zero Mostel, probably photographed by Leo Friedman, in Eugène Ionesco's "Rhinocéros."
Participants from past symposia
and more about their projects:
'Invisible City,' an exploration of all that's avant garde in the City of Philadelphia, was on view at University of the Arts and Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts from January 21, 2020, until the Covid-caused shutdown.Invisible City was also a database with a searchable chronology, interviews and more. This comprehensive project was a boon to artists, curators, scholars, researchers--and Philadelphia. In June 2024, University of the Arts abruptly shut down, and the database is gone.
A glimpse of the former database: 'Invisible City' was searchable by genres, dates, names ... celebrating Philadelphia's unexpectedly wide-ranging and important cultural avant-garde contributions.

Thomas Patteson, Professor of Music History, Curtis Institute of Music, spoke about 'Abstract Machines in Experimental Music' at PASC's Dec. 7, 2018, symposium. Among highlights of his talk was an audience hoot-along with a recording of John White's 'Drinking and Hooting Machine' (1968).
Hoot along with the Ensemble for Experimental Music and Theater's performance in Japan's Kichijoji Theater, Jan. 26, 2014. As you sip, swig or gulp, the sound of your hooting will change. (Links to Youtube)
