Artist/musician Erika M. Anderson (EMA) and visual artist Tabitha Nikolai use video game technologies to build out the psychosexual inner world of a girl-child in the '80s, with Anderson on music, sound and narration and Nikolai on live visuals. Soundtracked by modular synth and guitar, a narrator searches for her shape amid commercial detritus, degraded 3D scans of suburbia, and a Polly Pocket apocalypse. A free livestream at 8pm on the day of the performance will also be archived for future viewing.", "url": "https://noky.io/en/new-york/events/memory-as-a-rock-out-of-reach-ema-and-tabitha-nikolai-55459/", "official_url": "https://roulette.org/event/erika-m-anderson-ema-tabitha-nikolai/", "image": "https://noky.io/images/b44985873597afd6de46dc6068112d7c0dc3b8959802713491b2ba9ba1f84731-2000.webp", "dates": [{"start": "2026-10-30T20:00:00-04:00", "end": null, "place": "Roulette", "address": "Atlantic Avenue 509, 11217", "tickets": ""}], "similar": [{"title": "Matana Roberts Presents: “off the record…”", "start": "2026-11-11T20:00:00-05:00", "end": null, "place": "Roulette", "address": "Atlantic Avenue 509, 11217", "price": "$25", "price_from": "25.00", "price_to": "30.00", "tickets_url": "https://ci.ovationtix.com/36368/production/1282037?performanceId=11836634", "category": "concerts", "tags": ["music/experimental"], "description": "A live solo performance by composer, saxophonist, and sound experimentalist Matana Roberts, presented as part of the ongoing COIN COIN project.
