The Institute of Contemporary Art (ICA) will present Early Morning Opera’s production of “The Institute of Memory (TIMe)" for two shows on Friday, November 17 and Saturday, November 18, 2017. “TIMe” is a multimedia performance about how the future of remembering is changing right now. “TIMe” traces the transformation of archives from physical to digital structures and the corresponding evolution of national and personal remembering and privacy through the story of director Lars Jan’s father—an enigmatic Cold War operative and privacy-obsessed misanthrope. The performance will have particular resonance at the ICA as much of the story and Jan’s research are based in Boston and Cambridge, MA.
