Best Inclusive Display of Talent

The Belcourt’s annual Science on Screen series ended in April with a unique confluence of ideas about technology and culture. The program was Sci-lent Cinema, a selection of nine science-related or science-fiction silent short films, scored live by a group of musicians organized by Nashville’s Hyasynth House. The collective is in its second year of making electronic music a more inclusive space for women, transgender and nonbinary individuals, and the group gathered a phenomenal ensemble for the show. Adrienne Franke, Belly Full of Stars, Rhendi Greenwell and Tessa♠ (the Lexington, Ky., duo of Cassie Lopez and Edie Bab) joined Memphis experimental music legend Linda Heck and Hyasynth House principals Jess Chambers (performing as Dream Chambers) and Eve Maret in performing the music.
