    The Untuning of the Sky: Hair and Space Museum

    Hair and Space Museum is a multimedia duo featuring David Golightly and Emily Pothast (Midday Veil) that reflects on the generative, cosmic properties of sound.
    The Untuning of the Sky is a series of outdoor events throughout the summer that brings together music, poetry, and film inspired by the mystery and wonder of the sky at night. Held at venues across Seattle, the series links such divergent cultural traditions as the Music of the Spheres and afrofuturism with contemporary astronomical theory. The series takes its name from John Hollander’s 1961 book by the same name that examines the influence of music on poetry.
