Cybernetique


Can't make it to Pique in-person? Join the party from your own (cyber)space!

Announcing Cybernetique, a FREE virtual party and accessible means of attending Pique from the comfort of your own home on March 9. 

Accessed via Zoom, this party is more than just a live stream; dance, chat, and listen to exclusive artist interviews! And don't forget to dress to impress, as Cybernetique will be projected on the IRL walls of the Arts Court for all attendees to see.

If you're attending Pique in-person, you can also interact with our Zoom audience at a designated IRL-to-URL station. So, get ready to login and help us bring the Pique experience to more people than ever before!

Cybernetique will be live streaming from 6:30pm-1:00am on March 9, with performances from:
  • Echönymphia‘s ethereal harp and synths
  • Maylee Todd‘s innovative brainwave music
  • Maria Chávez’s audio-visual house music DJ set
  • G L O W Z I’s Afro-electro sonics

Plus exclusive live artist interviews from G L O W Z I, TUSH, Echönymphia, and more!

Since Cybernetique is free, please consider donating to UNRWA: United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees in the Near East. We’ll be dropping links in the Zoom chat all night.

Hosted by skulK!d (live from the Arts Court in Ottawa, ON) and moderated by fagofcolour (Zooming in from Vancouver, BC), with segments hosted by Zoë Argiropulos-Hunter and Calum Jeacle, this cross-country party is an opportunity for people from all over the world to connect, dance, and reflect on modern modes of (in)accessibility. Almost exactly four years after the first Zoom parties emerged in response to the COVID-19 pandemic, many immunocompromised community members are still unable to attend large-scale arts events, like Pique. We aim to provide an active and social space for everyone to gather and enjoy the arts through Cybernetique!
