market buzz & Hopkins Duffield’s Hive (2.0)

We sat down with Teresa Casas to talk about our piece Hive 2.0 which is currently on exhibition at New Adventures in Sound Art located in Artscape Wychwood Barns at 605 Christie Street. Teresa creates  participatory pop-up exhibits at the Barns that engage and involve the local community in what’s happening. Read on to check out Teresa’s latest project, ‘Market Buzz,’ as well as our interview with her!
