Summer Twilight Series

Six nights of live music inside the dome at 1106 Mondovi Road in Eau Claire, July 24 – August 28, 2026 — symphony players, free jazz, a 36-year retrospective, machine music and improvised electronics, all wrapped in 360° projection, spatial audio and lasers.

Presented with support from Pablo Center at the Confluence, who provided in-kind production and marketing support for the run.

July 24

Fantasia Quartet

Lumiadome’s public debut: members of the Chippewa Valley Symphony Orchestra playing classical and modern works inside the dome, wrapped in live, audio-reactive visuals.

Andrew Baschyn: 36 Year Retrospective In 360

Two nights retracing thirty-six years of live-hardware techno, from the warehouse raves of the early ’90s to international stages. Part 1 opened with Andy Stroble and Luc Lesh; Part 2 turned to Meadow Stars, Baschyn’s ambient project, with the audience reclined beneath a slow-turning sky.

Motion with Machines: Darkcloud, mount curve, Taimbot

Space-7 brought three live-hardware artists into the dome for a night that was not a dance party. With the spatial audio upgraded to a 13.1-channel Ambisonic grid, each machine had its own place in the room and was set moving around the audience.

Black Rain Ensemble

The closing night: a Minneapolis improvising electronic quartet (Dathan Boardman, Mykola Haleta, Christian Langheinrich and Lee Noble) with no setlist and no leader, building slow electric atmospheres overhead.
