Olivia Shortt is a storyteller, and they tell us their stories through absurdist and maximalist music, video art and fashion. Olivia discovered that this extravagant combination of art forms can conjure unique spaces for story telling, and such mediums assist her in designing sonic environments for all people to experience and uncover their own personal meaning. In the newest episode of New Music Edmonton's The No Normal podcast, Reid and Olivia discuss her recent residency in Edmonton, her work with the Jack Quartet and her ongoing journey of navigating the strange and weird as forces for her artistic expression.

Listen up / Tendez l’oreille, is the name of this year’s Canadian New Music Network FORUM. Available online, this ten-week celebration of the creative music and sound community features talks, performances and pre-recorded works by dozens of artists.
