Ottawa200

What happens when eight people become one giant DJ? Come play the OCTAMASHER at Ottawa Remixed – the final DOME-OCRACY event of the season at Canadensis Garden.

We’re taking “rock music” literally.
As part of the Ottawa 200 celebrations and Mixed Metaphors’ DOME-OCRACY series, join us at Canadensis Garden on Saturday, September 5, from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. to make music with stones — rocks that ring, resonate, click and clack, making sounds you might not expect.

What happens when a marble run becomes a musical instrument?
Find out on Saturday, August 1, when Canadensis Garden presents Musical Marble Run, a free, hands-on experience for all ages.
A giant wooden marble run will be set up inside the geodesic dome. As marbles travel through the course, they strike tuned metal chimes, creating melodies along the way. Every marble follows a different path, making each musical experience unique.

GOING-GOING-GONG: Interactive Gong Experience
Join us Saturday, July 4 for GOING-GOING-GONG, a unique interactive sound experience presented by Canadensis Garden and Mixed Metaphors as part of the DOME-OCRACY Interactive Music Series and Ottawa 200.

Taking place inside the geodesic dome at Canadensis Garden, GOING-GOING-GONG transforms the space into an immersive sound environment featuring suspended gongs that respond to movement and participation.
