Trimpin: The Sound of Invention is a sonic journey through an eccentric world. This documentary follows the artist as he designs a 60-foot tower of more than 500 electric guitars; builds an ensemble of marimbas that convert real-time earthquake data into music; and collaborates with the Kronos Quartet on an array of toy instruments. This film will delight anyone interested in the mysteries, pitfalls, and sheer joy of creative experiment. Trimpin performs May 17 – 20 at On the Boards. Visit ontheboards.org for more information.
