Architecture has long been a prominent feature of comics. The comics page resembles the grid of a modern building, as each panel offers a window into the characters' lives. Join us in looking at how contemporary Canadian cartoonists are drawing cities, streets, and buildings, exploring architecture as spaces we inhabit and as spaces that inhabit us.

Influenced by early 80s video game music, metal and rock music, found-sound and vintage analog synthesis, Dave stacks layers of melody in his tracks. Heavy drums and aggressive synths join forces with rolling grooves and melodic lead lines to create a wide variety of slamming dance floor originals.
Longwalkshortdock performs live PA with live vocals, synthesizers, drum machines, guitar, effects, toys, computers and even some of his own strobes and lighting. Performances at Soundwave 2009 and Shambhala 2010 have made LWSD an artist to watch. He was featured on the legendary Annie Nightingales podcast on BBC radio 1.

Cairo based producer, composer and performer Nadah El Shazly's solo release Ahwar placed her on The Wire’s list of Top 50 releases of 2017. The title translates to ‘marshlands’ but can also mean maze, or getting lost. Shazly is famous for making audiences around the world lose themselves in her maze of avant-jazz, electronica and Arabic soundscapes.
