Enjoyed our day off at the where we got to explore the beautiful chateau, learn more about its history, see France’s second-largest collection of historic paintings, try the famous crème Chantilly, visit the living museum of the horse and to top it all off, attend the equestrian show, “Kalandae, the Dance of the Hours.” Day off very well spent, and now, back to work!

🎶 Mystery of Clock tour took place in France and Canada earlier this month!

Audiences in Lyon, St. John’s, Toronto, and Kingston experienced an immersive performance with Aiyun Huang on percussion and Mark Fewer on violin.

Look back on their performances with these photos ✨

Mystery of Clock imagines our lives being measured not by the hours on the clock, but by the rhythm of our emotions, memories, and relationships. Objects become instruments and a mischievous clock comes to life.
