JOAN is pleased to present SKATERS’ SCORE, a new performance and site-specific musical composition by Alison O’Daniel, set in the Lincoln Park Skatepark. Bringing together five Deaf skateboarders from across the United States, four Los Angeles based hearing musicians, and an American Sign Language (ASL) interpreter, Skaters’ Score utilizes the sonic vocabulary of skateboarding to explore the tactile, spatial, and visual aspects of sound. Musicians and skaters will build an aural vocabulary informed by visual and sonic cues, multiple modes of communication and response, as well as by the architecture of the skatepark itself, participants’ movement through it, and the ambient sounds of the park and its public. The performance re-prioritizes music and listening away from the ears to more inclusively acknowledge the role of sight and physical sensation, how sound can be described through ASL and visual cues, as well as the ways that sound travels across space. Skaters’ Score is a collaboration between O’Daniel, a Hard of Hearing artist, and Deaf skater, surfer and two-time US Deaflympic snowboarder Darrick De La O. They are joined by hearing composer and saxophonist Patrick Shiroishi.

Directed by Alison O’Daniel. Composed by Patrick Shiroishi. Skaters: Darrick De La O (Los Angeles), Napo Lank (Phoenix, AZ), Brian Estrada (Minneapolis, MN), Alex Brand (Phoenix, AZ), Bryan Ramos (Austin, TX). Musicians: Ken Moore (upright bass), Pauline Lay (violin), Dylan Fujioka (accordion) and Patrick Shiroishi (saxophone).
