This promises to be be a one-of-a-kind event; don't miss it! The Performance: Portuguese multimedia artist Antonio Jorge Goncalves will improvise with light and drawings throughout the Hillside Club, accompanied by two local musical groups-the Acme House Band and the Jon Raskin Ensemble. Goncalves creates his visuals using a laptop, a Wacom tablet, and a portable projector, which he pushes around in a cart in order to use the entire performance space as a canvas. He calls his real-time digital drawing "live comics and projection." The music and visuals will take advantage of the entire performance space, with sound bathing the room from all directions and nearly every surface becoming a canvas. As a special addition acclaimed Butoh dancer, Monique Goldwater, will be a "living screen" for a section of the performance. The Performers: Through the '80s and the '90s, Lisbon-based Antonio Jorge Gon?alves published his graphic novels in books, newspapers, and magazines in Portugal, Spain, France, and Italy. He has also designed sets and costumes for several theater productions, and he recently created the Subway Life Project. Jon Raskin is a founding member of the ROVA Saxophone Quartet (he's the R in the acronym) and an active member of the San Francisco Bay Area music scene. Raskin has collaborated with a Who's Who of contemporary artists, including Anthony Braxton, Terry Riley, Fred Frith, Alvin Curran, Tim Berne, Henry Kaiser, and Nels Cline. He has composed for dance, theater, and the score for the film Just Another Weekend. Jon's ensemble includes Liz Allbee (trumpet), Matthew Goodheart (piano), Kjell Nordeson (drums), and Jon Raskin (saxophones). The Acme House Band is a group of electro-acoustic improvisers including Tom Djll (trumpet), Matt Ingalls (clarinet), John Shiurba (guitar), Tim Perkis (electronics), and Gino Robair (synth). The musicians are an integral part of the Bay Area scene and have performed and recorded with artists as varied as Tom Waits, Anthony Braxton, Merce Cunningham, and John Zorn.

Henry Kaiser (born Oakland, California, 1952) is widely recognized as one of the most creative and innovative guitarists, improvisers, and producers in the fields of rock, jazz, and experimental music. A restless collaborator who constantly seeks the most diverse and personally challenging contexts for his music, he not only produces and contributes to a staggering number of recorded projects, he performs frequently throughout the USA, Europe and Japan, with several regular groupings as well as solo guitar concerts and concerts of freely improvised music with a host of diverse instrumentalists. Evidence of his musical breadth and versatility can be found in a partial list of the artists with whom he has recorded and/or performed: Herbie Hancock David Lindley, Bob Weir, The Rova Sax Quartet, Elliot Sharp, John "Drumbo" French, Raymond Kane, Michael McClure, Bill Laswell, Steve Lacy, Fred Frith, Terry Riley, Ryuichi Sakamoto, John Zorn, Bill Frisell, Sang-Won Park, Jin-Hi Kim, John Oswald, Yuji Takahashi, John Tchicai, George Lewis, Jerry Garcia, Miya Masaoka, and Cecil Taylor. Composer, multi-instrumentalist and master percussionist/drummer, Rick Walker has been on the cutting edge of music for the last 25 years. One of the original founding members of the World Beat movement, and now one of the leading lights in the emerging international live looping movement, he incorporates a vast array of world music and pop styles in his repertoire. He has headlined in 13 countries in the past 3 years as a found sound/live looping/abstract electronica artist. He is an exceptionally versatile and sensitive musician and is eccentrically creative, finding rhythm and melody in hundreds of everyday objects.

NOISY PEOPLE is my feature length video documentary that opens a window into a tightly-knit group of unusual sound artists and musicians from the San Francisco improvisational music community. I followed my subjects for a year, filming them in their homes and studios, rehearsals and performances. What emerges is a set of funny and lively portraits of some very creative and quirky people -- and a portrait of a way of life outside the commercial musical mainstream of America. FEATURING: George Cremaschi, Tom Djll, Greg Goodman, Phillip Greenlief, Cheryl Leonard, Dan Plonsey, Gino Robair, Damon Smith. Also appearing are dozens of other creative musicians from the improvisational sound community, including Anthony Braxton, Fred Frith and Jack Wright. The Sebastopol Doc Fest runs from Thu Nov 8 through Sun Nov 11, with a lot of wonderful films this year in addition to NOISY PEOPLE... worth checking it out! ========== THE LINKS ================ Maybeck: Birgit Ulher: http://www.birgit-ulher.de/ Gino Robair: http://www.rastascan.com/gino.html Paige Sorvillo: http://www.ianwinters.com/paigesite/ Maybeck Studio: http://www.handprintseries.com/ Weasel: Weasel Walter: http://nowave.pair.com/weasel_walter/ other players: http://www.bayimproviser.com 21 Grand: http://www.21grand.org Dinner: John Bischoff: http://www.johnbischoff.com Philip Gelb: http://www.philipgelb.com/ Film Screening: Sebastopol Doc FilmFest: http://www.sebastopolfilmfestival.org/ NOISY PEOPLE: http://www.noisypeople.com Perkis: http://www.perkis.com From 21grand at 21grand.org Fri Oct 12 13:22:11 2007 From: 21grand at 21grand.org (Sarah - 21 Grand) Date: Fri, 12 Oct 2007 13:22:11 -0700 Subject: [NewMusicEvents] Saturday at 21 Grand - Mute Socialite w/Death Sentence Panda!, Moggs & 0th Message-ID: Saturday, October 13 Death Sentence: Panda! + Mute Socialite + Moggs + 0th 9pm, $6 -- 21 Grand 416 25th St. Oakland, CA 94612 (510) 444-7263 http://www.21grand.org Death Sentence: Panda! is Paul Costuros, Chris Dixon and Kim West - a trio of San Franciscan noise deliquents, featuring members of Crack: We Are Rock, T.I.T.S, Murder Murder and Total Shutdown. They add a cartoonish sense of drama to the trad Bay Area post-punk sound, using nothing more than a flute, a pitchshifted clarinet, a drum kit and a whole lotta hollering. Their music draws heavily on traditional Chinese and Korean folk music, ragtime, New Orleans-style marching bands and good ol' hardcore punk. Mute Socialite features Moe! Staiano and Shayna Dunkelman on drums, guitarist Ava Mendoza and Alee Karim on bass. The resulting music is reminiscent of Devo filtered through a Napalm Death lens, with a heavy dose of surf rock. Bay Area duo, Moggs alternate between angular rhythmic notches and stretches of muted and lingering noise, a visceral rattle and reverb coated in wood-grained analog finish. 0th combines tribal rhythms, psych drone, and improvisatory elements. Its main members are Rose Myers (drums) and Amanda Warner (bass), and now feature Jacqueline Gordon on keyboards.

These are Frank Gratkowski's duo with Misha Mengleberg, and the just released John Buthcer solo on Emanem. These guys seem nice enough in person, so you would think that they would understand that diplomatically they are suppose to plateau at some point, and give the rest of the world a chance to catch up with them. Unfortunately, their tactics are in fact extremely cut-throat, their goal apparently to make other reed players obsolete, because they keep on developing and getting better and better. These discs are so good in fact that I am afraid to listen to them. Any given listen could in fact be my last, as the urge to top myself just increases after each play. Really, though, it is interesting. I actually am weary of listening to them too much, because they are so good, it almost seems obscene. Do I need to see a therapist?

JOEL WANEK Joel Wanek is a photographer and educator living and working in Chicago. He teaches photography at many of the city's premier arts organizations including the Museum of Contemporary Photography, Center for Community Arts Partnerships, Marwen Foundation and the Hyde Park Arts Center. His photographs have been featured in a diversity of publications including DownBeat, Jazz Times, Chicago Sun-Times, The Chicago Reader, ZoneZero, Vibrations (France) & The New Cosmos of Photography (Japan). He has participated in group shows at Bucket Rider Gallery and The Hyde Park Art Center in Chicago, and CENART in Mexico City. Recently, Wanek's creative focus has been directed towards music. For the past three years, he has studied upright bass and improvisation with master musician Tatsu Aoki.

Currently he is a member of Aoki's Miyumi Project Big Band, Boykin?s Microcosmic Sound Orchestra and Ways & Means Trio. In addition to performing, Wanek is also an active music presenter. A year rafter the passing of legendary bassist Malachi Favors Maghoustut, he organized a gathering of Chicago creative bassists to pay respects to him and his spirit. That initial event has grown into The Low End Theory, a musical series highlighting the city?s many innovative bassists.

In the fall of 2006, Jim Goodin (based in Brooklyn, NY) met Daryl Shawn (based in Oaxaca, Mexico) in the Looper's Delight online forum. Soon their common interests emerged, and they discussed playing together, though geographical realities prevented a traditional meeting. At about this time, a piece of software called Ninjam had emerged, which allows musicians to play together in real-time over the Net. Ninjam deals with the latency inherent in sending audio data over the web by slightly delaying each player's input by one musical measure. This new technology enabled Goodin and Shawn to do so without leaving their music rooms, though they were 4,000 miles apart. They soon discovered a natural musical rapport, and developed an ethic and sound which has remained firm even as experimentation continues, which itself is a key component of the band. They play only acoustic guitars, from fretless to 12-string to flamenco instruments. Much of their sound is based on looping, or the use of technology to repeat and twist musical phrases in counterpoint or accompaniment. Though looping frequently involves sophisticated rack effects, the loops in Chinapainting are created with a cassette four- track and a dictating machine. Their use of additional effects is minimal, with just a couple of pedals between them. All of their material is improvised on the spot. To date the members have never met in person. The Sophisticuffs should have never met. They will try to display there softer, gentler side tonight.

The pairing features guitarists Jim Goodin and Daryl Shawn spontaneously creating new material, drawing on everything from modern minimalism to glitchcore to free jazz, traditional folk and world music. Goodin and Shawn's guitar-based collaboration is enhanced by the unique use of cassette tape loops, essentially creating new instruments from the humble four-track tape recorder and the office dictating machine, as well as the use of various types of guitars, including fretless, 12-string and flamenco styles in addition to mandolin. Though the two musicians live far apart, Jim in Brooklyn and Daryl in Oaxaca, Mexico, they have developed a musical relationship solely through the Internet, using an open-source application called NinJam, which has allowed them to create their music interactively in real time. Says Shawn of their weekly sessions, "We just freely improvise, no discussions or cues, nothing but the sounds from 3000 miles away coming out of our speakers and headphones to react to."

Two multi-channel video and sound installations by David Kwan invite the study of emergent systems, from their building blocks to their transformation into complex forms. Inspired by end-of-land vistas of the greater Pacific Rim, TERMINUS (2007) is an evolving tableau of the vast light, water and landforms in this coastal expanse. Kwan collects images and sounds from the terminal points for various roadways, shipping and rail lines from the length of San Francisco to Orcas Island and randomly superimposes them to produce a continuously transforming environment. As component elements progressively enter and leave, the composite landscape and soundscape grow with determined complexity and organicism. In SOLARIS (2006), Kwan uses terrestrial sound in the form of radio waves as the basis for generating patterns and then shaping the space in which they inhabit. Following the notion that sound waves propagated the earliest clustering of matter, he reveals a wealth of images from the electromagnetic signature of present-day sound phenomena. Kwan works fluidly between the mediums of video and sound to create interdisciplinary works for a wide variety of settings including exhibitions, installation, and concerts. His work is marked by gradual processes set into motion, forms unfolding over time, and nascent environments. Whether working with video or sound, he creates formal systems to reframe surroundings and magnify aspects of perception. Not interested in merely simulating nature in its manner of operation, he foregrounds transformative elements to engage experiential modes of seeing and listening, which is at the core of this artistic enterprise. Kwan has performed and exhibited work at the Berkeley Art Museum, Pacific Film Archive, Headlands Center for the Arts, Recombinant Media Labs, Artist Television Access, The Lab, CalArts, Bemis Center for Contemporary Arts (Omaha), Jack Straw New Media Gallery (Seattle), and Akademie Schloss Solitude (Stuttgart). He currently resides in Oakland, CA. The work in this exhibit was made possible with the generous support of Jack Straw Productions in Seattle, WA, and the Experimental Television Center in Owego, NY.

I do not know, and the question seems irrelevant. It is new, yes, if one wants to know if anybody has made such a type of music before. It is not experimental if one associates with experimental music a certain abstract, couldn't-care-less-for-your-feelings approach. For Amelia Cuni, in following Cage's instructions and intentions in a faithful, yet unexpected manner, achieves one thing that is truly rare in all kinds of experimental music: Her straightforward and yet sensual music makes you suddenly care about all the ideas, time and biographical material she nourished this project with. It is definitely not a let's-see-what-happens-if project, but rather a genuine and diligent attempt at re-constructing in sound the real world Amelia Cuni lives in, a world composed of Indian and Western music, of experimental and traditional sounds, of music theory and of her own poetry, of many years between many languages and cultures. She has, in more than one sense, composed her own musical home; and we all are warmly invited to live in it and be her welcome guests." --Sandeep Bhagwati, from the liner notes to "Solo for Voice 58: 18 Microtonal Ragas" For complete program details and audio samples, visit: http://cts.vresp.com/c/?OtherMinds/3454b87982/03760457d3/1ac4036857 To purchase tickets, visit: http://cts.vresp.com/c/?OtherMinds/3454b87982/03760457d3/6c20b24b31 -- ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Richard Friedman Oakland, California http://www.rchrd.com/blog From rchrd at rchrd.com Fri Oct 19 16:11:12 2007 From: rchrd at rchrd.com (Richard Friedman) Date: Fri, 19 Oct 2007 16:11:12 -0700 Subject: [NewMusicEvents] Iva Bittova & Amy X Neuburg- two upcoming Freight & Salvage Shows Message-ID: <47193990.1050701@rchrd.com> ---------------------------------------------------------- Nov 1 8pm: Iva Bittova ---------------------------------------------------------- IVA BITTOVA Avant-garde fiddler and vocalist blending old world and new Thursday, November 1, 8pm Freight and Salvage Coffee House, Berkeley Enchanting Czech composer, singer, and violinist Iva Bittova is famed for her powerhouse performances that fuse Old World and new-music sensibilities. In her original compositions as well as her arrangements of traditional pieces, plaintive violin interweaves with emotion-filled vocal lines, creating an avant-garde style infused with the spirit and language of Czech, Slovak, and Moravian folk music. A prominent figure in her native country, Iva is probably best known for her performances of music by Czech opera composer Leos Janacek, and for her career as a film actress. She has performed regularly all over Europe and the U.S., has released numerous solo albums, and has embarked on a number of intriguing collaborations, including a recent CD recorded with New York new-music collective, Bang on a Can.

With the accompaniment of cellists Jess Ivry, Elaine Kreston, and Beth Vandervennet, Amy presents songs that examine themes of love, deceit, art, and social responsibility, all observed from a bracingly unique perspective. Increasingly well known for her wildly entertaining "avant-cabaret" performances, Amy uses her own amazing four-octave voice to construct complex, emotionally intense songs in various styles -- from rock to sultry jazz to avant-garde. Combining thought-provoking lyrics, a keen sense of humor, and an undeniable flair for showmanship, Amy's performances are a dizzy mix of complexity, accessibility, and intensity. An alumnus of the 9th Other Minds Music Festival, Neuburg's most recent CD "Residue" was released on the Other Minds label.

A former resident of the Antarctic Artists and Writers Program, Kaiser has since returned to the ice four times as a research diver.

Through the use of electronic & acoustic instrumentation, Romus composes his music to elicit a ?feeling? as opposed to just simply entertain. The sound performed by the Lords of Outland follow a gut level harshness building upon a sparse structure while utilizing free improv. Noise and everything inbetween. In short, Romus takes a grunge attitude or bull-in-a-china-shop direction. "...inventive cutting-edge sounds...ghostly howls, which sound as if they leeched in from a Japanese horror flick soundtrack, appear on one Culture track, with other tunes filled with miasmatic pulses courtesy of Reaven Borosque?s flanged guitar licks and crackling electronics. Scraped timbres, perhaps emanating from Everett?s autoharp or Romus? zitherod (sic) provide sandpaper-like abrasions underneath the Aylerian saxophone lines and oscillated wind-tunnel sounds, while Shaeffer?s sluicing bass configuration links the CD to rock-like beats." -Ken Waxman, Jazzword.com "...the combination of experienced free-improv players and blinding white noise is revelatory indeed...If you've ever wondered about the possibility of hearing a collision between beatnik free jazz and power electronics, then your prayers have been answered."

Fridays and Saturdays, October 5 through 27, 2007 at 8:00 pm Sunday Matinees, October 14 and 21, 2007 at 1:00 pm Shotwell Studios, 3252-A 19th St., San Francisco (between Folsom & So. Van Ness) ??

The award-winning team that brought you Serial Murderess strikes again, with their new music-theater work, D'Arc, woman on fire. Now, writer-performer Amanda Moody and director Melissa Weaver team with the humor and eclectic dynamism of composer Jay Cloidt and cellist Elaine Kreston. D'Arc offers a surreal inquiry into the cost of dreams, lived and unlived. Weaving the threads of the Dark Ages with our own dark times, D'Arc depicts a present-day intercession by Saint Joan of Arc. We meet a mother, home alone, fixated on letters from her daughter who vanished while working abroad in a war-torn region.?? Raging against loss, the mother begins to receive bizarre visions??through the cold flame of her television set.??It is Saint Joan, burning through the TV twilight to answer her grief. Relating tales of her own battles, Saint Joan challenges her to listen anew to the call of her own life. Jay Cloidt???s haunting music drives this D'Arc night of the soul. Integrating mercurial vocalizations with acoustic and processed cello, the composition features original songs, underscoring, and sound design which span 14th century hymns, aggressive electronic music and heart-thumping gospel. The Creative Team Amanda Moody, writer/performer: "???tight, quirky and resonant??????the stillness at the center of Moody???s intense focus works a strangely evocative transformation??? Robert Hurwitt, SF Examiner ???...writing and performance of classic proportions?????? Wanda Sabir,??SF Bay View ???Splendid ??? boldly contemporary and undeniably moving.??? Georgia Rowe, Contra Costa Times Miss Moody is known as a triple-threat writer-actor-singer with a wide range of comedic and dramatic skills. Her critically acclaimed work, Serial Murderess, directed by Melissa Weaver with music by Clark Suprynowicz, enjoyed an extended, sold-out premiere at Footloose's Venue 9 won the 2001 Dean Goodman???s Choice Award for Outstanding Achievement, and the San Francisco Bay Guardian's BEST OF 2000 Upstage/DownstageAward for great solo performance. ??????funny, disturbing and refreshingly un-PC ?????? (Kerry Reid, Callboard Magazine);?? ?????? provocative, literate and scary??? above all, entertaining ?????? (Dallas Faulkner, Bay Arts and Music). Previously, Moody wrote and performed the six-character, music-theatre piece, The Winchester Rosary composed by Jo??l Lindheimer. This one-woman show was performed at San Francisco's SOMAR Gallery Theatre in 1997 and again in 1998, and was co-presented by Agape Performance Group and the Paul Dresher Ensemble. Jean Schiffman wrote in BackStage West, ???... Moody???s virtuosity ??? as writer, singer and actor ??? is awesome.??? ?? She has written the original story and libretto for the opera, Caliban Dreams, composed by Clark Suprynowicz, which she performed with tenor John Duykers in concert at the Magic Theatre in May of 2003. Her original oratorio, Bitter Harvest, composed by Kurt Rohde, premiered in December 2005 with the Berkeley Symphony Orchestra conducted by Kent Nagano.?? Georgia Rowe of the Contra Costa Times declared Bitter Harvest ???Splendid... boldly contemporary and undeniably moving.??? ?? Jay Cloidt, composer: Jay Cloidt is a composer and sound designer working in the San Francisco Bay Area.?? He was born and raised in a small town in Nebraska.?? After receiving his BA in piano performance, he moved to Seattle and worked as a professional rock and blues musician in the 1970???s before being ???born again??? as a contemporary music composer.

As a composer, he has collaborated with many groups, beginning with the late Ed Mock???s group and including the Kronos Quartet, Paul Dresher Ensemble, California EAR Unit, the Margaret Jenkins Dance Company, the Gary Palmer Dance Company, and ODC/San Francisco.

A CD of his chamber music and electronic works, Kole Kat Krush, is available on Starkland Records (ST-208). The American Record Guide called it ???... creative and attention-grabbing ... haunting and original??? ; and the AMG All Music Guide described it as?? ???a wonderful, accessible, and yet challenging album from one of new music's brightest lights.????? The San Francisco Chronicle has dubbed Cloidt ???The Spike Jones of the Bay Area new music scene.??? ?? Melissa Weaver, director/dramaturge: Artistic Director of Agape Performance Group, Melissa Weaver conceived A.ga.pe, Last Stand and Trespass Knot with partner, John Duykers.??D'Arc is her sixth collaboration with Amanda Moody, including Serial Murderess, The Winchester Rosary, Caliban Dreams for the San Francisco Shakespeare Festival and Bitter Harvest for the Berkeley Symphony.??Weaver recently directed Duykers in Paul Dresher's The Tyrant in Seattle, Philadelphia, Cleveland and at Cal Performances' EdgeFest.??With Dresher she has collaborated on The Way of How, are/are, SeeHear, Slow Fire, Power Failure, Pioneer, Awed Behavior, Ravenshead and the design for the Electro-Acoustic Band.??Weaver directed Rinde Eckert's The Gardening of Thomas D. and Dry Land Divine touring the US and Europe; John Thow's Serpentina and Vivian Fine's Women in the Garden for Berkeley Opera; Orff's Die Klug with Kent Nagano at the Ojai Festival, Erling Wold's Sub Pontio Pilato at ODC Theatre and Seven Small Operas for Long Beach Opera.??She was recently an artist-in-residence at California Institute of the Arts for five years, creating several original works with students; and will join Duykers at Miami's Frost School of Music to develop an experimental opera program.

Balkan meets klezmer meets jazz meets rock meets wild improvisation. Put in a jar, and ferment. Jon Russell, clarinets and sax; Mike Perlmutter - saxes and clarinet; Liam Staskawicz, trombone; Eddie Pollard, drums; Josh Sirotiak, tuba. +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Son of Gunnar, Ton of Shelis the duo of Aram Shelton and Steini Gunnarson. Their music, which is largely improvised, is held together by a shared sense of commitment to long forms and instinctive timing. Using prepared guitar, wind instruments and live sample-based processing via PD and MSP, they create thick multilayered textural music that is guided by their expressive melodicism. +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Corey Fogel is relentless. His musical magic derives from patiently waiting, finding and preserving moments of serenity and infectious rhythm, then skeptically smashing that symmetry as soon as he gets a whiff of any magical complacency. He is against mythology's illusions and desires a blunter Now: honest, bare and pre-teen. He "says" what other musicians are afraid to "say" with a seriousness commingled with humor, wrapped so subtly that the two are often confused; he speaks his mind [seemingly] regardless of context, reveling in the uncomfortable adrenaline glow of a conversation that cannot recover from his bringing up that one unspeakable Word. Corey plays not with drumsticks but with judges' gavels, fervidly passing judgment upon music with easy answers and excuses, presenting instead a frenzy of objection, counter- argument, and expert witness. He plays with the spirit of a Jewish grandmother whose warm and nurturing embrace is swiftly exchanged for a razor-lipped critique, who easily confuses her subjective reality for our objective one - and it hurts because far too often she is half-right, and you still desire her soup. "You should eat more," says his cymbal. "You better marry a nice Jewish girl," says his snare drum. And yet he is not without an impeccable caress that keeps his codependent compatriots like us coming back again and again for the splendors of musical make-up sex. Corey takes his music too seriously, too anti-heroically, and looks us deep in the eyes expecting the same from us - and it turns us ON. We desire his attention, his bashful grin, his sexy non sequiturs, his parallel universe where we-should-know-better. And in the end deep down we all understand what big long drumsticks mean...
