SUMMARY:Common Ground @ EPIC
DESCRIPTION:Common Ground: Ireland and the EU is a new multimedia exhibition exploring how Ireland’s membership of the European Union has shaped the country socially\, culturally and economically over the past few decades. The exhibition also looks at the impact Ireland has had across Europe\, telling stories of migration\, opportunity\, equality\, education and cultural exchange through immersive displays and personal stories. \n  \n\n\nIreland joined the European Economic Community (EEC) – as the EU was then known – on January 1\, 1973\, after a referendum endorsed by 83% of voters. It was then among the poorest and most underdeveloped countries in western Europe\, with a population just over half of its current size. \nIreland’s accession proved to be the most consequential economic milestone in the half century since Irish independence\, but it also set in motion far-reaching social and cultural change. EU legislation has driven improvements in workers’ rights\, for example\, and set binding targets for climate action. Irish people have studied and built new lives across Europe\, while many Europeans have since made their homes here in Ireland. \nAs Ireland assumes the EU presidency in 2026\, this new multimedia exhibition explores how a small island nation has extended its influence across Europe\, and how Europe\, in turn\, has profoundly shaped modern Ireland. \nFeatured Stories:\nEqual Pay \nStudying Abroad \nAn Ghaeilge \nEntry to this exhibition is included in general admission tickets.

SUMMARY:James Joyce Centre Walking Tours

SUMMARY:Kyle Dixon & Michael Stein: The Music Of Stranger Things
DESCRIPTION:This 2026 tour offers a complete sonic retrospective\, spanning all five seasons of the series. From the iconic 2016 opening theme to the climactic sounds of the recently released Season 5\, Dixon and Stein bring their atmospheric scores to life.  To elevate the performance into a fully immersive experience\, they have partnered with renowned visual artist MFO (Marcel Weber). The new show features a minimal yet striking design of light and sculpted fog. Light takes on a physical presence through dreamy glows and violent\, haunted movements\, blurring the line between concert and cinema to make the Stranger Things atmosphere a truly tangible experience. \n“It’s a score that understands the difference between ‘retro’ and ‘timeless\,’ opting for a cold\, analog precision that feels both old and startlingly new” – PITCHFORK \n “Like many a great score\, it does not need the visuals to make it sing or to put you in the correct mental space”– LOUDER THAN WAR \n“It is full of gorgeous compositions and details\, blending Eighties-inspired synths that range from the luscious to the eerie” – DROWNED IN SOUND \n “Even with sounds inextricably linked to the late ’70s and early ’80s\, this music tells its story with character\, poise and a fresh perspective” – RESIDENT ADVISOR \nIn the annals of film and television\, certain musical themes manage to transcend the moving image. From the iconic whistle introducing Morricone’s The Good\, the Bad and the Ugly theme to Tangerine Dream’s “Love On A Real Train\,” memorable scores have the uncanny ability to sum up an epoch\, an entire aesthetic. The prolific Texan musicians Kyle Dixon & Michael Stein are responsible for a body of work that’s synonymous with the fictional town of Hawkins\, Indiana\, the supernatural everytown at the center of the Netflix hit Stranger Things. But as the small town becomes the unlikely site for a supernatural battle within the hit series\, Dixon and Stein’s soundscapes\, too\, have expanded in lockstep. In the meantime\, Stein and Dixon compose music for feature films\, documentary series and large-scale installations and play in the band S U R V I V E. Working in the lineage of predecessors like John Carpenter and contemporary peers like Oneohtrix Point Never\, Kyle Dixon & Michael Stein use a lifelong obsession with synthesizers and electronic music as a vehicle for larger-than-life visions. \nWhile Dixon & Stein came to prominence composing music for a series that has become a cultural touchstone\, Stranger Things\, imagery and setting have always been central to the duo’s practice. In 2009\, alongside Mark Donica and Adam Jones\, they formed the live synthesizer band S U R V I V E. Leading up to the formation of the quartet\, Dixon and Stein experimented with field recordings\, venturing down tunnels and ascending water towers around Austin\, Texas\, hauling battery-powered modular setups and field recording equipment out to the sorts of places the Stranger Things kids might explore on their bicycles. As opposed to the laptop-based performances common in live electronic music at the time\, S U R V I V E hauled a studio’s worth of synthesizers and amplifiers into dive bars for legendary live performances\, achieving the ability to fill the room with crushing sound. Whether they knew it or not\, with S U R V I V E\, Dixon and Stein laid the groundwork for their future as one of the pre-eminent scoring teams of our time. Rather than speaking in musical terms\, they’d describe their instrumental synth music with visual cues—a helicopter soaring over a waterfall\, a high-speed chase down darkened Los Angeles alleys. \nWhen The Duffer Brothers found the band and tapped Dixon and Stein for work on Stranger Things\, the duo rolled their sleeves up\, taking on a workload typically handled by a fleet of composers and assistants. As the show gradually transformed from ’80s sci-fi period piece to an expansive supernatural epic\, Stein and Dixon rose to the occasion. While their music for early seasons focused on the timeless sound of ’80s analog synthesizers\, they’d soon harness melodies and atmospherics befitting Eleven and Mike’s interdimensional struggle. Music is a main character in Stranger Things\, with Dixon and Stein’s soundtrack weaving in and out of triumphant\, period-appropriate songs like Kate Bush’s “Running Up That Hill.” That song topped the charts after its pivotal use in season four. Similarly\, the duo’s tireless work on Stranger Things catapulted them from underground synth heroes to key composers for modern film and television. Stein and Dixon won an Emmy for Outstanding Original Main Title Theme Music for their work on the show\, in addition to nominations for multiple Grammys and ASCAP awards. \nFor recent seasons of Stranger Things\, the duo has worked at a daunting pace\, crafting the equivalent of a feature film score every two weeks. Somehow\, they’ve also found time to work on multiple feature films in recent years. For Joaquin del Paso’s 2021 independent psychological thriller The Hole In The Fence\, Stein and Dixon paid homage to Tomita’s epic synthesizer compositions as well as the pioneering electronic experiments of Oscar Sala. Their score received a Hollywood Music In Media Awards nomination for Best Independent Score\, while the film itself premiered at Venice Film Festival and took home best film honors at the Cairo Film Festival. They also composed music for Meow Wolf’s massive Denver site. The multimedia installation features ab unnersuve zone scored by the duo\, who were tasked with conceiving a simple\, Close Encounters-style melody that saves a fictional world. Over the pandemic\, Dixon and Stein managed to collaborate remotely with musicians and multiple choirs\, even integrating the mysterious and singular sounds of a Bulgarian Women’s Choir into their Meow Wolf score. The duo also composed the score for the 2021 horror-tinged thriller Retaliators\, adding to a burgeoning catalog that has placed Stein and Dixon’s soundscapes behind VR-views of the cosmos (Spheres)\, scenes from ’90s Silicon Valley (Valley Of The Boom)\, and the journey of an 11-year-old transgender girl (Butterfly)\, to name just a few. \nAfter this prolific run\, Dixon and Stein are simultaneously going back to their roots and embracing new challenges. Currently working out of their respective\, hardware-heavy studios in Los Angeles and Austin\, they’ll soon reunite with their band\, S U R V I V E\, for a new album and worldwide touring. At heart\, Stein and Dixon are avid students of electronic music history who constantly explore new methods of composition and scoring. While they have a clear facility for soundtracking the supernatural and otherworldly\, Stein and Dixon have an equal interest in scoring quieter\, decidedly human drama. It’s been a wild decade for Kyle Dixon & Michael Stein\, who have gone from DIY tinkerers in Austin to introducing a whole new generation to synthesizers via the alchemical combination of sound and moving image. The images have been in their mind all along. Now we just get to watch them
