Factory Media Gallery presents CYBERNETIC ORCHESTRA performing during the James Street Art Crawl on April 12th from 6:30-11PM.

The Cybernetic Orchestra is McMaster University’s laptop orchestra, an innovative electronic music ensemble now entering its third year of activity. The orchestra has performed in Hamilton, Montréal and Toronto – at TEDx conferences, at new music festivals, and myriad other events, alongside a growing roster of artistic friends and collaborators.

Few sectors of the economy have the potential to transform communities like creative industries. They have the ability to reshape a city’s image, become a magnet for outside talent, boost vibrancy and quality of life to provide an economic advantage over competing communities without rich creative sectors. Hamilton offers all the key ingredients to become a creative industrial hotbed in Canada: excellent quality of life, affordable living options, easy access to major markets within a 100km radius including Toronto and the northern U.S.A., and, most importantly, a well-developed and growing local scene.
