Jay Marchand Knight’s Multimedia Production
On 3 April 2023, ACTOR collaborator Jay Marchand Knight presented a multimedia installation as part of Concordia University's INDI Research Day. The installation, entitled "Where Can We Sing?", is a creative representation of Jay's research on voice timbre and gender perception; equity, diversity, and inclusion issues in vocal performance; and the German Fach System. The work was supported by Eldad Tsabary and RISE Opera, of which Jay is an active member, and included text by Jay and their supervisor, Mickael Deroche. INDI Research Day selected the creative work of 10 students to be featured in the event. Where Can We Sing? was granted the first prize. The jury consisted of three faculty members from science, visual arts, and humanities.
