In our first gathering of 2023, Wave Chamber Collective invites two more scientific thinkers to the stage with us, this time to exploring relational dynamics. We wanted to refocus the collective lens from romantic dynamics to other kinds of relationships. Join Justine Leichtling as she explores our relationship with ourselves and Patrick Freeman as he shares his groundbreaking research on unexpectedly nurturing relationships between male elephants in the wild. As always, our skilled and empathetic Collective musicians will be choosing pieces to highlight the tone and themes of the evening.

The evening will be taking place in a new space for our group (although not new for many of the musicians) at Monument in SOMA! Monument is a live/work/event space in San Francisco that connects and supports creative people across different fields - you can read more about them here.
