The second set of music will feature live improvised animation from the innovative minds of Magnuzaki Labs. Magnuzaki will create an immersive visual experience that will be projected alongside new musical work by Armstrong. The music will put the audience into a kind of trance, with a pulsating beat and a swarming horn section.
