Friday October 6th, 2017. Vancouver, Canada.<\/p>\n

The final two workshops of LIVE2017 happened. Involving the selected emerging artists (ALIVE), these artists had the opportunity to work with all of this year’s visiting international performance artists.<\/p>\n

Friday morning’s workshop, led by Maiko Jinushi<\/strong>, involved taking the artists for a walk through Vancouver’s Chinatown, equipped with photo, video, and audio recording equipment.
