    521: You're All in the Band

    Hundreds of students. 45 minutes. One stage transformed into a musical playground of ukuleles, harps, cellos, turntables, melodicas, guitars, steel pans, and voices raised in collective, youthful joy. this isn't your typical music recital – it’s a powerful testament to what we can create together. LuminoCity’s Rebecca Singh was on location to experience You’re All in the Band when it took place on the afternoon of June 21st, 2025. In this episode, you’ll hear her on sight descriptions of the massive venue, an interview with the creative head of the project, Richard Marsella, and snippets from the show.  More information about the show can be found on the Luminato show page: https://www.luminatofestival.com/youre-all-in-the-band Music by Ty Simon.

    520: Rainbow Dreams, Part Two

    One of LuminoCity’s describers, JJ Hunt, tags along with Ramya Amuthan as they explore, appreciate, goof off, and run around in a human hamster wheel. The Rainbow Dreams series of public installations in downtown Toronto are pitched as immersive wellness experiences. Imagined by internationally acclaimed artist Hiromi Tango, they truly are one of a kind. Where else will you see serious looking businessmen in suits sprawled out on giant dog beds in the middle of a work week?

    515: THAW

    A colossal block of ice hangs suspended above Sankofa Square. On it, a solitary figure fights against time and heat, scrambling to protect what's already melting away. As sunset approaches, what will be left?  LuminoCity's J.J. Hunt was on location on Sunday, June 8, 2025, describing all 8 hours of this mesmerizing piece of performance art.

    514: Night/Shifts

    When the city sleeps, Toronto comes alive in unexpected ways. Award-winning photographer Nadya Kwandibens captures the hidden world of the people who keep our city running through the night - transit workers, healthcare staff, entertainers, and countless others whose stories are rarely acknowledged.  LuminoCity’s Christine Malec and describer JJ Hunt embark on a city wide art crawl under the streets to experience it all. This, as it turned out, became a friendly competition between JJ and his describing skills versus Christine’s AI describing apps. Listen in to find out which describer gets the edge, but also how this city-wide exhibit celebrates the Torontonians that keep the city alive while we all go to sleep. Music by Ty Simon.
