Bruce Riley[/cs_text][x_blockquote cite=”TRQPITECA” type=”left”]TRQPITECA is simultaneously a cultural platform, a curatorial project, and an immersive performative installation. As organizers and artists, one of our biggest challenges is that often, the focus leans either to the side of organizing, or the side of creating original artwork, depending on the project. For the past year, the majority of our time and energy has been spent more on the organizing and production side, and less focused on creating our artwork. That is why we would like to take this opportunity to focus on creating a performance that incorporates original music, movement, visual art, and installation. Our performance will be inspired by Miami’s natural and cultural environment, in conversation with Chicago’s queer, house, and techno aesthetics, and will be performed during the residency and at our festival, ICUQTS, in Chicgao. Although most of our time would be spent creating the music, installation, and wearable art for our performance, which will be livestreamed and recorded through audio and film, we would still produce an event in collaboration with Miami-based artists.

DAPHNE 2018

[cs_content][cs_section parallax=”false” style=”margin: 0px;padding: 45px 0px;”][cs_row inner_container=”true” marginless_columns=”false” style=”margin: 0px auto;padding: 0px;”][cs_column fade=”false” fade_animation=”in” fade_animation_offset=”45px” fade_duration=”750″ type=”1/1″ style=”padding: 0px;”][x_blockquote cite=”Zach Long, Timeout Chicago” type=”left”]It’s no secret that the music industry at large is dominated by men (just take a look at a typical summer music festival lineup for proof), but the underrepresentation of female-identifying and non-binary artists is especially acute within the electronic music community. That’s why, three years ago, Smart Bar talent buyers decided to found the Daphne series, devoting the entire month of March to showcasing DJs and producers who are not cis males.

While Smart Bar has traditionally been a place where diversity is reflected both in the types of acts being booked and the audiences that fill the club itself, Daphne serves an acknowledgment that there is still progress to be made. “The ultimate goal of the series, at least for me, is to render Daphne redundant because inclusivity and representation will be an everyday thing,” Smart Bar talent buyer Jason Garden said in a statement. “We’re getting there—I’m getting there—but, for now, Daphne endures.”[/x_blockquote][x_image type=”none” src=”http://trqpiteca.club/home1/trqpitec/wp-content/uploads/2018/03/27545614_10155860686295630_1970047549452158998_n.jpg” alt=”” link=”false” href=”#” title=”” target=”” info=”none” info_place=”top” info_trigger=”hover” info_content=””][/cs_column][/cs_row][/cs_section][/cs_content]
