In terms of innovative new approaches to live performance, McMaster University’s LIVELab is leading the way in Hamilton.
Nothing could prove this better than LIVELab’s forthcoming presentation of Synaptic Rodeo, a multidisciplinary piece of live performance art that experimentally marries neuroscience, technology, and art. The show will be presented at McMaster for three performances on November 29th and 30th.
The result of a two-year residency at LIVELab featuring the local talents of choreographer Julia Aplin, playwright and performer Anna Chatterton, director Christopher Stanton, composer John Gzowski, and new media artist Jim Ruxton, Synaptic Rodeo will blend a fascinating neuroscience lecture with innovative live performance that makes use of LIVELab’s available technologies.

Maybe you’ve seen a play before, but have you ever seen one that also uses motion capture, active acoustics, and EEG (or, electrophysiological monitoring of brain activity) as part of the show? For this reason alone, Synaptic Rodeo promises a live experience unlike anything you’ve seen before.
This interactive piece is already attracting plenty of attention among Hamiltonians, with the first showing on November 29th already completely sold out. So, jump on the those remaining tickets for November 30th and get ready for a live performance piece that might blow your mind!
Synaptic Rodeo, presented by McMaster University’s LIVELab, runs on November 29th at 8 pm, and November 30th at 2 pm and 8 pm. Remaining tickets and details are available on their website.
