MUSIC | Play Me, I'm Yours
British installation artist Luke Jerram is avoiding the day the music will die by bringing music to Toronto's city streets. Play Me, I'm Yours is an international art project where colourful pianos are dropped off on city streets for citizens to play as part of an effort to regain control of public spaces. The project has already had wide success in cities like New York, Sydney and London and tonight marks the arrival of Toronto's public pianos with a free concert in David Pecaut Square hosted by Jian Ghomeshi and DJ Starting From Scratch.

ART | We Don't Know What This Conversation Is Going To Make
Aman Sandhu and Swapnaa Tamhane are thinking outside of the box--from within one--at the opening of their exhibit We Don't Know What This Conversation Is Going To Make at Interaccess this evening. Working within a Plexiglas box while mapping out ideas for their next art piece, Sandhu and Tamhane will sit in conversation in the gallery window after hours with the audio of their discussions streaming live on ustream.tv. An exercise in thinking beyond limitations, the conversations will last two to three hours and will focus on a piece to remain inside the Plexiglas box once they are gone.
Interaccess Electronic Media Arts Centre (9 Ossington Avenue) 8PM Free
