They met because their friend Chris introduced them over email so that they could conspire on how to foster more creative spaces on the west coast. George plays in a lot of bands and shannon has danced in a lot of companies. Because they have some differences of opinion about planning and preparation, they decided to make a few simple agreements in advance of this evening. One is that they would vote in the Presidential Primary. -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

She is also a member of the Outsound Presents Board of Directors. Recent performances include a Late-Night Cabaret at the National Flute Association's annual convention, plus concerts at the San Francisco's Luggage Store Gallery, the Big Sur Experimental Music Festival, and the Woodstockhausen Festival. Polly's gateway performance art workshop has been presented at the Flute Festival Mid-South and the Madison Area Flute Festival. Polly Moller & Company have performed all over the San Francisco Bay Area and will tour the Pacific Northwest this autumn. Polly's new work for four improvisers, The Flip Quartet, was premiered on November 2nd, 2006 at the Luggage Story Gallery in San Francisco and was performed again in Oakland in May 2007. Her flute quartet, Remove Before Flight, is now available from ALRY Publications. Upcoming works for flutes include arrangements of the Hue "Fantasie" and Enesco's "Cantabile e Presto" for solo flute and flute choir, commissioned by Flock of Flutes. Polly Moller has been awarded grants by the American Composers Forum Subito Program, the American Composers Forum Community Partners Program, and the National Foundation for Advancement in the Arts. Her recordings have been released on Albany Records, Pax Recordings, Mindspore Records, and Silver Wheel Music. The new album, Not Made of Stone -- Polly's fourth, and the first by Polly Moller & Company -- is now available. ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Karl Evangelista?s music explores the sonic capabilities of the guitar in a multi-traditional context, melding spontaneous music with a cross-idiomatic sensibility. He has lately concentrated on the development of a new performance practice for steel-string acoustic guitar, drawing on the instrument?s facility for extended timbres and percussive techniques. Having completed his self-constructed major at UC Berkeley, Karl is pursuing the MFA in Music Performance and Literature at Mills College. His studies have included work with numerous creative musicians of note, including Roscoe Mitchell, Myra Melford, Zeena Parkins, and Ted Moore. Among the many Bay Area musicians with whom he has shared the stage, the guitarist has performed with Francis Wong, John-Carlos Perea, Jordan Glenn, Jason Hoopes, Anantha Krishnan, Andy Strain, Lisa Mezzacappa, and Jason Levis. Karl leads his own quintet and recently debuted a 12-piece ensemble dedicated to the music of the Filipino Diaspora.

Pieces include mirror image compositions for lute and manipulated field recordings made of various airport lounges and train stations. In between sets Mr. van Wissem will give a brief lecture on composing and improvising new music for lute. Tetuzi Akiyama is an experimental guitarist active in the free improvisation and noise music scene in Japan. Besides guitar he also plays electronics, viola, and self-made instruments. Jozef van Wissem's work employs classical contrapuntal techniques such as retrograde motion and palindrome forms and applies them in new ways to traditional scores, such as reading tablature from the bottom right corner to the top left. To these inversions he adds new themes, accents, and rhythms. for more information contact: John Bischoff, Music Department Mills College 5000 MacArthur Blvd. Oakland, CA 94613 510-430-2331 Mills College is located off 580 freeway in Oakland.

Mini Performance Art Festival Message-ID: <52139.68020.qm@web65509.mail.ac4.yahoo.com> POW! Mini Performance Art Festival March 6-8, 2008, 8pm 21 and over Tickets: $10 Space Gallery 1141 Polk Street San Francisco CA 94109 http://www.spacegallerysf.com/ Further Information: www.myspace.com/samowilmotek Web: www.myspace.com/samowilmotek POW! an evening of new interdisciplinary performance art works will take place on Thursday March 6, Friday March 7th, and Saturday March 8th, 2008. Presented by samo-wilmo-tek and gal*in_dog, POW! displays ?cutting-edgy? work of performers and artists from the Bay Area, New York, Philadelphia, Los Angeles, and Mexico City. After producing significant shows throughout the Bay Area, samo-wilmo-tek joined forces with gal*in_dog to create POW!, a grassroots production. The artists in POW! are George Alley and Alyssa Lee, Francesco Gagliardi, gal*in_dog, Violeta Luna and David Molina, M. Mara-Ann, The Plastic Arts Performance Parade, Nora Raggio, Rocket Parlour, Kattt Sammon, WIGBand, and more. POW! is a festival full of surprises and uncensored performance pieces. samo-wilmo-tek and gal*in_dog present POW! as a response to the ways in which the art scene is managed in the Bay Area and United States. Artists have been forced to follow certain aesthetics in order to have their work presented in a gallery or a festival and obligated to create a specific type of work that follows the fiscal sponsor's agenda. Thus, the sponsor gets to censor the artist. The curators of POW! devised a festival where the artist is encouraged to present work without restrictions. samo-wilmo-tek was established by Kattt Sammon and Alyssa Lee in 2004 to present the works of artists involved in installation, dance, electronic music, theatre, and video. The samo-wilmo-tek artistic vision includes having a select number of artists to be able to present longer works; choosing a venue with a specific ambience (such as one without a traditional stage); and to create a performance space whose atmosphere and artistic aspects compliment one another, resulting in performances fully absorbed by the audience. All of this creates the samo-wilmo-tek aesthetic vision throughout the evenings of performance they curate and present. gal*in_dog joined samo-wilmo-tek's vision in 2007 after attending a 12 step rehab program for victims of bay area arts organizations (V.B.A.A.O. - Danville, CA). He was in very bad shape but soon his ideas were adopted by the Hillary Clinton campaign as extremely effective political performance art techniques. All of these techniques were actually used to produce this festival. samo-wilmo-tek has presented shows at various venues in the Bay Area including performance spaces, houses, and art galleries. gal*in_dog has presented work throughout the United States, Latin America, Europe, and Asia. Artists: George Alley and Alyssa Lee: George Alley and Alyssa Lee hail from Cleveland, Ohio and met at The College of Wooster, Ohio where they started an artistic relationship that has carried throughout the years. Through long distance collaborations Alyssa and George create interdisciplinary dance and performance works. Both artists have shown work in various venues in California, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Arizona, New York City, Lithuania, and Spain, including performance spaces, art galleries, multimedia parties, garages, installations, festivals, nightclubs, boats, and gardens. The son of a Lebanese Blues Singer and a Demolition Derbist from Detroit, George Vernon Alley has been making art and studying art makers. He holds a MFA in Choreography from Temple University and a BA in Theatre from the College of Wooster. Alley is the creative director of the AlleyINK dance group, and creator and co-host of the caustic audio-blog/sound installation podcast ?I?m Going to Kill You,? one of the top-ten listened-to comedy podcasts in North America. Alyssa Lee is a choreographer, dancer, performance artist, and educator, who draws upon a rich variety of movement vocabularies, techniques, art forms, and experiences to create unique art. Alyssa started her dance education at the age of three and holds a B.A. in Philosophy from the College of Wooster and an MFA in Dance Choreography and Performance from Mills College in Oakland. Alyssa is the founder and artistic director of group A, a multidisciplinary dance company, and co-founder of samo-wilmo-tek productions. Francesco Gagliardi: Francesco Gagliardi is a media and performance artist currently based in Toronto and Buffalo, NY. He studied theatre and philosophy in Italy and the UK and has been working internationally in theatre and performance for over 15 years. His first video piece, Short Sentences 1993-2005, based on Gertrude Stein, has been screened internationally and was awarded the Now Magazine Overkill Award at the 2005 Images Festival in Toronto. gal*in_dog: Guillermo Galindo's artistic work spans a wide spectrum of expression from symphonic composition to the domains of musical and visual computer interaction, electro-acoustic music, opera, film music, instrument building, three dimensional installation, live performance, improvisation and sound design. His music has been performed and shown at major festivals and art exhibits throughout the United States, Latin America, Europe, and Asia. Galindo?s orchestral works include two symphonies: Ome Acatl, (1997) by the OFUNAM Mexican National University Philharmonic Orchestra and Trade Routes (2005) for orchestra, performed by the Oakland East Bay Symphony Orchestra and chorus. In the field of opera Galindo has written two major works: Califas 2000 with text and performance art by MacArthur Fellow Guillermo Gomez Pe?a; and Decreation/Fight Cherries with libretto by MacArthur Fellow Anne Carson. For many years a member of Pocha Nostra, international performance art troupe, and a resident composer for the Unbound Spirit AADP Dance Company (1992 to 2004), Galindo?s most recent work explores the fields of performance art, music and sound archetypes, ritual, live audience interaction, the creation of cyber-totemic sonic objects; and the conception of site specific sonic environments. Guillermo Galindo?s latest performance pieces the relationship between sound and meaning through live performance and the invention and live performance of interactive sonic instruments such as MAIZ (an interactive mechanical device featured in MIT Leonardo Magazine, December 2007. Other pieces include Cruise4ide (2006) premiered at the San Francisco Electronic Music Festival and TRES, three experiments on cultural genetic engineering and audio-visual archetype.

Other performances include In Between (Screening Excesses: LiveMedia Traces.Tracts.Texts/Mills College 2006), the folding action (Cabinet of Muses/The LAB 2004), Performing Objects: Stationed in the Sub World by Carla Harryman (The LAB 2003). www.medusa.org The Plastic Arts Performance Parade: Vanessa Porter, Lauren Mace, and Kendra Ware are Los Angeles based performance creators who first collaborated in 2007 to develop ?Not a Dinosaur? for the Poor Dog Barks Festival. In combining Vanessa?s background in design and visual art, Lauren?s dance and music experience, and Kendra?s training as an actor, the three feel they have discovered a unique and varied performance practice. They seek to make work that crosses disciplinary boundaries, explores unconventional audience to performer relationships, and embraces the bizarre and unexpected. They are eager to encourage and participate in artistic exchange between Los Angeles and the Bay Area. Nora Raggio: Nora Raggio researches personal and cultural space, deconstructs and constructs that space, re-creates the results of investigations into a variety of formats: web-based work, video, performance, painting, photo, and installations that come in huge, portable or mini dimensions.

WIGband uses a m?lange of multi media (installation, film, video, song, slides, props) to get their "trashy feminist" point across. Seriously silly and tasteless Wigband is known for its in your face satire of life's everyday imposed conformities and across the globe obscene politics. Barbara "Bambi" Golden, a fabulous 66, a much married ex housewife from Montreal who has produced everything from a music/recipe book to experimental performance and radio. Johanna "Silver" Poethig is an internationally known muralist, visual and public artist whose work critiques and satirizes our consumer colonialist society.

Positioning themselves at music's most dynamic nexus, Rova has become an important leader in the movement of genre-bending music that has its roots in post-bop free jazz, avant-rock, and 20th century new music as well as traditional and popular styles of Africa, Asia, Europe and the United States. With its potent mix of stellar musicianship and compositional creativity, Rova explores the synthesis of composition and collective improvisation. The result is adventurous works that are ardent and riveting, exhilarating and free-spirited. While much of Rova's music is composed by its members, the group has also collaborated with and commissioned new works by a wide range of creative artists. Since its founding, Rova has released over two dozen recordings of original music. In noting Rova's role in innovatively developing the all-saxophone ensemble as "a regular and conceptually wide-ranging unit," The Penguin Guide to Jazz calls its music "a teeming cosmos of saxophone sounds" created by "deliberately eschewing conventional notions about swing [and] prodding at the boundaries of sound and space..." Likewise Jazz: The Rough Guide notes, "Highly inventive, eclectic and willing to experiment, Rova [is] arguably the most exciting of the saxophone quartets to emerge in the format's late '70s boom." ----------------------------- Widely recognized as one of the most creative and innovative guitarists, improvisers, and producers in the fields of rock, jazz and experimental music, California-based musician Henry Kaiser is one of the most extensively recorded as well, having appeared on more than 140 different albums. A restless collaborator who constantly seeks the most diverse and personally challenging contexts for his music, Mr. Kaiser 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 exceptional musical breadth and versatility can be found in a partial list of the extraordinary artists with whom he has recorded and/or performed: Herbie Hancock, Richard Thompson, David Lindley, Bob Weir, The ROVA Sax Quartet, Elliot Sharp, John "Drumbo" French, Raymond Kane, Michael McClure, Bill Laswell, Steve Lacy, Fred Frith, Barbara Higbie, John Abercrombie, Leo Smith, moe., Negativland, Michael Stipe, Terry Riley, Jim O'Rourke, Ryuichi Sakamoto, Sergei Kuriokhin, Zero, Critters Buggin', Diamanda Galas, Sonny Sharrock, Hans Reichel, Chris Cutler, Henry Cow, John Zorn, Andy West, David Torn, Bill Frisell, Joey Baron, Davey Williams, Eugene Chadbourne, Evan Parker, Sang-Won Park, Material, The Golden Palominos, Victoria Williams, Jin-Hi Kim, John Oswald, Glenn Phillips, Toshinori Kondo, John Stevens, Tom Constanten, Kiyohiko Senba, Bruce Anderson, Sang-Won Park, Yuji Takahashi, John Medeski, Zoogz Rift, Ngoc Lam, Dama Mahaleo, Merl Saunders, Freddie Roulette, Mari Kimura, Harvey Mandel, Danny Carnahan, Robin Petrie, Rakoto Frah, Rossy, Alan Senauke, John Tchicai, George Lewis, Kazumi Watanabe, Peter Brotzmann, Zero, Bob Bralove, Greg Allman, Billy Kreutzman, Jerry Garcia, Miya Masaoka, Miroslav Tadic, Cecil Taylor, and Amos Garrett. ____________________________________________________________________________________ Looking for last minute shopping deals?

In this day, this dawn, when privacy rapidly begins to dwindle?where the difference between inside and outside of one?s head or one?s house or one?s inbox are growing more blurred?.we find ourselves in new territory, a no man?s land where everyone has fifteen hours of fame, whether they know it or not. There is no choice anymore in what is open to the electronic voyeur. The eyes of the world are upon us and we are all stripped naked on the internet, over the phone, in our email and in our very thoughts. Nothing is hidden from the watchful eyes of the 'gods'. We are on display for their amusement. However, as the watcher watches so too do we watch him. So too do we indulge in voyeuristic fashion, in the analysis of his behavior. He is the wolf to our sheep, but we are the hunter to his wolf, and as the spiral turns so to the watcher and the watched become one in a dance, the pull eternal, between fascism and freedom. Eddie the Rat is the pseudonym for composer and multi-instrumentalist, Peter Martin. Starting in 2000 as a one-man electro-acoustic experiment in sound and composition, within a year Martin?s vision evolved into a performing group bearing the same name. During the first two years of the group?s existence, the ensemble usually consisted of no less than 12 members and included members of 7 year rabbit cycle, Secret Chiefs, Zen Guerrilla, and others. ?Insomnia Sound Bible? is a recording of the shorter songs that were being played alongside larger scale pieces in the group?s live sets at this time. ?Insomnia Sound Bible? is the songbook to a sleepwalker?s guide through oblivion. Its soundscape is made of violins and cellos, trumpets and clarinets, lots of percussion and homemade instruments, and telepathic harmonizing and other voices. As with all Eddie the Rat recordings, the intention is for the CD to be listened to as a whole, however, these are songs which can also be taken in their own context.

DISTRIBUTED MEMORY Live Music and Projected Images IN PERSON: Janie Geiser Pat O'Neill Tom Recchion Carl Stone This evening is the second in a two-part series curated by Julie Lazar (the first was presented at Montalvo Arts Center on February 8). DISTRIBUTED MEMORY, originally presented at the Getty Center, features commissioned pieces supported in part by Montalvo Arts Center, pairs filmmakers and composers in the creation of collaborative real-time cinematic works from the recomposition of found and new materials. In ROTARY WOBBLE and HORIZONTAL BOUNDARIES, Pat O'Neill's formalized contemplations of urban and natural environments are merged with electronic musician Carl Stone's live digital scores. Janie Geiser and Tom Recchion?s fusion of live performance, re-photography and collage animation, MAGNETIC SLEEP, reinterprets the formal melodramatic traditions of Man Ray and Maya Deren.

He lived and played in the LA area until he was 23, graduating from the USC/Thornton School of music on a full music scholarship. During that time he played and/or recorded with the likes of Billy Higgins, Dr. Art Davis, John Clayton, Stevie Wonder, Michael Buble (including an appearance on the Tonight Show), Sheila E., Christina Aguilera, Mike Keneally and the Industrial Jazz Group. In 2003 he moved to San Francisco and has since played and recorded with artists like Grammy nominee Taylor Eigsti, Marcus Shelby, Ben Goldberg, Dayna Stevens, Realistic Jazz Orchestra, The Jazz Mafia, The Shotgun Wedding Hip-Hop Symphony and legendary Jamaican artists Mikey Dread and Prince Buster, as well as the jazz/hip-hop group "Spaceheater". ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Since settling in San Francisco in 1997, Canada-born trumpeter *Darren Johnston* has built a web of alliances, from avant-guard excursions with the likes of the ROVA saxophone quartet, the Splatter Trio, and Ben Goldberg, to straight-ahead jazz outings with the likes of bassist Marcus Shelby. As a band-leader he is best known for his work with his "United Brassworkers Front," whose second CD, ?In Between Stories?, was recently released on Evander Music. Another new release in '07, "Reasons for Moving," featured Fred Frith and Larry Ochs, and was released on the Not Two label. Darren was mentioned in last June?s issue of Down Beat as one of ?25 trumpeters for the future.? ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Bassist *Eugene Warren* is the son of an acoustic and electric bass player who encouraged his children to study and explore music at an early age.

This sludge is in line with contemporaneous doom salesmen such as BORIS and the MELVINS, with the addition of vox stylings that take this record to a new place entirely. The sounds coming from Stephania Pedretti's mouth as she sings go from lullaby sweet to terrifyingly raw in short intervals. Instrumentation on this platter is diverse, with guitars, bass, drums being added to the mix as well as music store stand-by's like harmonica, piano, and cello. "just a man and a woman in weird clothes and weird instrumentation (a bowed dreadlock! has to be a first!)" http://www.loadrecords.com/bands/ovo.html http://www.myspace.com/ovobarlamuerte The Better to See You With "...it's a battle of moaning, shrieked vocals, grinding synth, and drums and guitar that growl and gnash around each other like two alligators wrestling in the shallows. In the end, everything blooms into a great psychedelic tapestry of intelligent brutality." - Portland Mercury http://www.myspace.com/thebettertoseeyouwith Ettrick San Francisco's Ettrick is a self-destructive free jazz/black metal assault featuring two multi-instrumentalists rotating through every permutation of their drum and sax duo. In their brutal free improvisations, Jacob Felix Heule and Jay Korber explore the extreme sounds that can be wrenched from their instruments through brute force ? screaming through saxophones, throwing drums and other such impolite extended techniques. The doubled instrumentation provides a situation to explore playing contrasting and complimentary styles on like instruments. http://myspace.com/ettrick http://ettrick.org/presskit.html Chen Santa Maria improvised electronics noise bursts from the recently resurrected duo of George Chen and Steven Santa Maria http://www.myspace.com/chensantamaria From mperlmut at hotmail.com Fri Feb 22 00:46:11 2008 From: mperlmut at hotmail.com (Michael Perlmutter) Date: Fri, 22 Feb 2008 08:46:11 +0000 Subject: [NewMusicEvents] Zoyres February and March In-Reply-To: References: Message-ID: Zoyres returns to the stage after a few months of relatively fewperformances.
