Leon Dewan and Brian Dewan
are Dewanatron—a collaborative team who make hand-crafted,
semi-automatic, electronic musical instruments. This exhibition will feature
twelve wall mounted analog solid-state instruments that produce occasional
electronic utterances at ever-shifting intervals of time. Also included
in the show are parlor and concert instruments such as the Swarmatron
and the Dual Primate Console. Visitors will be able to play the
Coin-Op Melody Gin, an arcade instrument in which 25 cents buys
the customer a four minute hands-on electronic music-making-odyssey with
knobs and toggle switches.
