The Baltimore arts collective EMP stages a vast multimedia project in which actors from Baltimore and Washington recorded excerpts from Eduardo Galeano's "Genesis" epic describing the creation of the modern world. Artists of various disciplines then took one excerpt each to inspire a piece of art. The resulting pieces will be presented both at EMP's Baltimore space (Aug. 17 at 306 W.
