Supporting MACHiNENOiSY in their efforts to create art performances in the form of dance, is an intriguing experience for me. As board member of their non profit society I am learning a thing or two about what it's like to be a "starving" artist.
MACHiNENOiSY is a contemporary dance company based in Vancouver under the artistic direction of Delia Brett and Daelik. In the past three years the company has performed in Greece, France, Berlin, Vienna, Vancouver and Victoria, collaborating with some of Europe's finest dancers and choreographers, and steadily building a portfolio of cutting-edge dance.

The company's mandate is to foster the research and creation of innovative performances that transcend the traditional notions of dance and theatre. Delia and Daelik are dedicated to the investigation of movement as an expressive art form and to the creative exchange of ideas. To these ends they actively strive to collaborate with other artistic mediums and interact with the international dance community. Above all, they are dedicated to creating work that possesses physical clarity and emotional truth. See www.machinenoisy.com for more information.
On Saturday, November 28th, MACHiNENOiSY are having their 4th annual wine raffle/house party fundraiser. 2009 was a wonderful year for the company, and 2010 is set to be even more exciting. For this event I have volunteered to design an invitation that was circulated among our group of friends and board members. We are hoping to Raise $2000. If you read this and would like to join, please don't hesitate to get in touch: info@machinenoisy.com.
If you decide you want to buy a ticket, your online option to do this would be to get into the website http://www.machinenoisy.com/.
