The Art House is proud to present the one-night live music and screening event, AmeriCosmos!
NY based multi-instrumentalist Matt Venuti creates a live, improvised soundtrack for breathtaking footage that he filmed throughout the US. At an opportune time, the footage ascends into Space, and a cosmic journey ensues, enhanced by NASA and Webb telescope imagery.
Matt plays an array of rare electronic and acoustic instruments and creates lush arrangements with the aid of a looping device. AmeriCosmos has enraptured audiences nationwide in theaters, planetariums, art centers and a diverse range of venues.
In summary, AmeriCosmos is an immersive and awe-inspiring live music and visual voyage through the heart of nature, the depth of sound and the vastness of space.��
