Satellite has fused visual art together with music, dance, spoken word, and film in innovative productions. Satellite’s Rogue Film Unit has produced much of the foundational vision for these works together with young composers, writers, and filmmakers. These films are the creative briefs of massive productions; and in many cases were woven into the performances themselves.
