- 479 Fragments 15.0-15.6 (Ockeghem Anamorph) — Kyle Quarles
- Performers: Nathan Halbur; Nicholas Ottersberg; Kyle Quarles; Mara Riley; Regina Stroncek; Tianyi Wang
- Description: multimedia madrigal inspired by Ockeghem's Missa Cuiusvis Toni; six singers circle a live-spatialised Max patch that continually reslices recorded fragments, creating an anamorphic counterpoint between plainchant and glitch. The singers interact with gestural controllers strapped to their wrists, warping the electronic texture in real time.
