Entertainment:

What makes Calgary as cutting edge and sophisticated as Stanford and Princeton? We have our own Laptop Orchestra!!

Liberating computers from the tedium of emails, word and accounting, ALE (ACAD Laptop Ensemble) explores the boundaries of laptops as a collaborative music-making instrument. Part improvisational jazz, part ambient soundscape and part club-culture rave party, ALE generates an inspired journey through music and sound in each performance.

AND
