Hope everyone is well, and stays well!
Portlandorusnow focuses on in-person events: openings, closings, and occasional performances. Organizers and venues are suspending many to most; attendee-participants are opting out. Some galleries post most of the show online, so that is one way to experience them.
Variform postponed the musical event this evening.
Pianist and electronic musician Carly Barton releases an art book, OST, of her piano scores printed on the Risograph. She will perform and drop a very limited number of digital recordings on USB memories.
You can put a listen to her work at https://carlybarton.bandcamp.com/ and https://soundcloud.com/carl-420. She is an active remixer, including remixing anime soundtracks.
Portland-originated photo collective Lightleak had a group show scheduled at UofP today, but events there are shut. None the less, you can see the group online individually at http://www.lightleak.org/.
A great project out of Portland is Bedstock. Musicians perform in bed and the videos are online. It's a project of MyMusicRX who bring instruments into Childrens' hospitals. So if the kids are at home, it's a watch. It is https://mymusicrx.org/listen/
