 Your Call's Rose Aguilar interviews Nina Haft and Rogelio Lopez about Precarious Pod. This brilliant work premiers this weekend in San Francisco, but even if you can't attend, the radio show is worth listening to.
 So excited to have participated (along with the formidable Em Mahdavian and Su Kim) in this show that focuses on "talking to artists and cultural creators about how their work is part of the resistance"!  Nina Haft & Company's PRECARIOUS POD is an immersive performance for small, intimate audiences about animals and extinction. Exploring the lives of species that have adapted with varied success to human impact, we invite audiences to move about freely to observe and explore how human and animal instincts collide. What can we learn from animals about a balanced relationship to our natural world? I hope my composed soundscapes will help answer.
Shows in November at Joe Goode Annex in San Francisco. Click for link to tickets!  Film critic Kenneth Turan writes about Midnight Traveler: "Fazili and his team...have created a story that captures with casual but dazzling immediacy what it feels like on the most human level to be a refugee." Turan also name-checks me, "composer Gretchen Jude," as an "exceptional collaborator"! Congrats to the whole fabulous team, with more to come...?
