On Thursday, January 13 at 7pm in Bryan Hall, BGSU’s College of Musical Arts will host a free public screening of the award-winning 2020 documentary Sisters with Transistors.  This documentary by director Lisa Rovner tells the untold story of electronic music’s female pioneers, remarkable composers who embraced machines and their technologies to utterly transform how we produce and listen to music today. From the unlimited possibilities of digital synthesizers to the recent analog recording revival; from the impossibly perfect pitch of Auto-Tune to the democratization of music-making for a generation of “bedroom” producers—each of these extraordinary developments is directly connected to the work and artistry of the women featured in Sisters with Transistors, including Clara Rockmore, Daphne Oram, Bebe Barron, Delia Derbyshire, Maryanne Amacher, Pauline Oliveros, Wendy Carlos, Laurie Spiegel, and others. The 84-minute documentary will be followed by a 30-minute talkback with composer Elainie Lillios, transnational cultural studies scholar Lara Martin Lengel, and musicologist Ryan Ebright. This event is made possible through the generous support of BGSU’s MidAmerican Center for Contemporary Music as well as the Office of the Provost and Senior Vice President for Academic and Student Affairs.
