Kicking off a month of Fuse Fest 2026 on the evening of Friday, May 1st, we were thrilled and delighted to feature composer/multi-instrumentalist V.Vecker (BC), new media artist/didgeridoo player John Hardin (CA), an audio-reactive multimedia performance by new media artist CG Ryan (CMH) in collaboration with multidisciplinary artist Ben New (CMH), and improvisational quintet SHPRD (CMH).
Supporters of our 2025-2026 season include the Greater Columbus Arts Council, the Ohio Arts Council, the National Endowment for the Arts, and the Columbus Foundation.
About the artist:
John Hardin plays didgeridoo and theremin simultaneously through a network of digital effects, and controls a bank of audio samples he can trigger at will. These samples include field recordings, excerpts of vintage media, and candid interviews. With these elements, Hardin sculpts a unique sound that transcends time as it flows organically through it, like the endless dance of earth and water on a living planet shaped by unseen forces.
