Labspace Studio: A Loud, Arty Revolution í¢â‚¬“ By Daniel Moore
Labspace Studio is single-handedly changing the way artists and audiences interact. Maybe irreparably. On Saturday May 5, the studio hosted its debut show í¢â‚¬Å“The Lab Sessions 1.0: Nodes and Naught Codesí¢â‚¬ which brought together more than a dozen young and emerging artists, dancers, musicians, sculptors, and writers from the Toronto area. The show was the first in a series of í¢â‚¬Å“Interdisciplinary and Interactive Art Partiesí¢â‚¬ that combines the genres of house party, art gallery, and performance show in a free-flowing melíƒ ©e in which the artists performed their works amongst the partiers, infiltrating and surprising their audience like devious children at their parentsí¢â‚¬â„¢ dinner party.
