She was wired up like a suicide bomber. I couldn't quite make out which wires led to where but every time she moved a part of her body she triggered a sound bite?Her voice is beautiful and her range is broad..." ~ Kenneth Goldsmith WFMU THE ARTISTS Doctor Bob David Michalak plays a Fender lap steel guitar and an assortment of odd percussion instruments. While he is more commonly known as a filmmaker (50 films with original soundtracks since 1971), the visual art side of him seeps inherently into his performances and compositions characterized by shimmering passages, abstract snapshots and haunting representations of natural elements. Besides Doctor Bob, David plays in his instrumental ensembles Reel Change and Ghost In The House. Bob Marsh is a well seasoned improviser whose work has involved shaping sounds, words, images and ideas. Since his arrival on the west coast, multi-instrumentalist and composer Marsh has been busy with several projects: String Theory, Che Guevarra Memorial Marching (and Stationary) Accordion Band, Robot Martians, the Quintessentials, and others. He currently is active with cello, accordion, violin, voice, vibraphone and electronics. Andre Custodio is a SF bay area native Drummer/Sound Designer who studied with Brian Fergus, Bob Danielson and Karl Perazzo. He currently teaches and performs in the San Francisco Bay Area and? has recorded with Rudis/Custodio/Diaz-Infante, Tri-Cornered Tent Show, and Say Bok Gwai. Pamela Z is a San Francisco-based composer/performer and audio artist who works primarily with voice, live electronic processing and sampling technology. Processing her live voice through ?MAX MSP? software on a PowerBook, she creates solo works that combine operatic bel canto and experimental extended vocal techniques with found percussion objects, spoken word, and sampled concr?te sounds. Her audio works have been presented in exhibitions at the Whitney in NY and the Di?zesanmueum in Cologne. She has toured extensively throughout the United States, Europe, and Japan. -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
