Insect Ensemble

Insects are creepy, yes, but they also make beautiful music. That's the theory, anyway, of Insect Ensemble, the Hammer Museum's latest "Public Engagement" program, a series of imaginative interactions between museum visitors, artists and staff. Sound curator Jessica Catron brings the noise to the Hammer's terraces, where she and Corey Fogel, Jessica Basta, Paloma Udovic and Leticia Castaneda use hand percussion and mouth sounds to imitate the ambiance of bugs. Can't be any worse than Bjork. Hammer Museum, 10899 Wilshire Blvd., L.A.; Fri., June 17, 6 p.m.; $10 museum admission, $5 seniors. (310) 443-7000, hammer.ucla.edu. (Originally published in L.A. Weekly, June 17, 2011.)
