Perhaps one could say H?bsch plays electronic music with mechanical means. In composition H?bsch's work focuses on interweaving improvisation and ideas written in advance of the performance. In the concert at the Hillside Club he will play in a duo with Gino Robair (synth/styrofoam/carniverous noises). Together with the audience they step into the unknown and let music grow from there.

For more information and advance tickets online: www.volumeprojects.org LISTEN/VISION is a unique series exploring the art of perception. It is a place and time for a shared experience of sound and light and space. Volume and Overlap.org have partnered to commission new and unreleased sound and video works from an international pool of acclaimed contemporary artists. LISTEN/VISION will also host live performances and multichannel sound installations. The third installment of LISTEN/VISION presents a very special evening with live performances by the three principal members of the German arts platform Raster-Noton: Carsten Nicolai, Frank Bretschneider, and Olaf Bender. Each artist will perform individually, and collectively as Signal. These artists are considered by many to be some of the most important and influential individuals working within the field of experimental electronic audiovisual performance today. The program will consist of four live performances: ? Signal: Robotron ? Alva Noto (Carsten Nicolai): Unitxt ? Olaf Bender: D.O.A.T. (Death of a Typographer) ? Frank Bretschneider: Rhythm Raster-Noton: Archiv F?r Ton Und Nichtton is a platform, a network covering the overlapping border areas of pop, art, and science. After surviving the storm that followed the fall of the Berlin Wall, East German sound manipulators Carsten Nicolai, Frank Bretschneider, and Olaf Bender pooled their resources as Raster-Noton and jacked into international art currents. Their minimalist electronic CDs and sound objects have sent power surges through a global grid connecting like-minded artists from Coil's ElpH to Tokyo's Ryoji Ikeda. This program is generously sponsored by the Goethe Institute, San Francisco.

An acoustic band with a big sound (trombone, tuba, saxophone, clarinet, and percussion), their repertoire is both booty-shaking and beautiful. Colin Stetson was born and raised in Ann Arbor, MI, where he became proficient on assorted saxophones, clarinet, and flute. While still in college, he co-founded Transmission (which later became Transmission Trio), and in 1998 they relocated to San Francisco. Stetson also branched out to play live with the likes of Fred Frith, Peter Kowald, Ned Rothenberg, and Kenny Wollesen. Since relocating to NYC in 2004, Stetson has performed regularly with the Antibalas Afrobeat Orchestra, Anthony Braxton and TV On the Radio. He is currently touring with the band, Arcade Fire, playing clarinet, bass clarinet, french horn, cornet and bass saxophone. Also performing are Chicago improvisers, Tobin Summerfield (guitar) and Jaimie Branch (trumpet), in town with large ensemble, Never Enough Hope, alongside locals Aram Shelton and Dina Maccabee.

Participants will be exposed to the work and ideas of new music composers and sound art practitioners, receive hands-on instruction with tools (software, hardware etc) and techniques for the creation of sound and performance works, and create and present works of their own. The workshop will meet weekly for group sessions which will include lecture/demonstration and group listening and performance activities. There will be weekly assignments to create small works based on principles covered in the sessions, and a final meeting in which participants will each present a final project ? a recorded or performed sound work, experimental music composition, or sound installation. Participants will also sign up for private sessions for individual help with sound recording and editing software and equipment, and help with planning, composing and creating works. Drawing on her own experience as a composer and performer of experimental music, sound, performance, and installation works, and the works of other notable artists in this broad-ranging field, Pamela Z will present sessions exploring elements of sound, and expermimental music including the use of sound in performance, sound with image (video & film), experimental composition techniques, the use of sampled sounds, found text and found objects, electronic processing of voice and other acoustic sound sources, synthesized sound, digital sound recording and editing, and the physics of sound. Participants will also receive a comprehensive list of recommended reading, listening, and viewing in addition to works presented in class. SoundWORK will meet Tuesday nights July 1- August 12, 2008 6pm-9pm at Royce Gallery, 2901 Mariposa Street (with additional sign-up hands-on sessions in Pamela Z's nearby studio.) For workshop and enrollment information, email soundwork at pamelaz.com or call 415 861 EARS. Or enroll now through PayPal: http://www.pamelaz.com/swsummer08.html Full workshop price $350 (workshop without private hands-on: $275) (some scholarships available) Pamela Z is a San Francisco-based composer/performer and audio artist who works primarily with voice, live electronic processing and sampling technology. She creates solo works that combine operatic bel canto and experimental extended vocal techniques (processed in real time) with found percussion objects, spoken word, and sampled concr?te sounds. These sounds are often triggered via custom MIDI controllers such as Ed Severinghaus' BodySynth? or Donald Swearingen's Light SensePod, both of which allow her to manipulate sound with physical gestures. Her performances range in scale from small concerts in galleries to large-scale multi-media works in flexible black-box venues and proscenium halls. Pamela Z has toured extensively throughout the United States, Europe, and Japan. She has performed in numerous festivals including: Bang on a Can at Lincoln Center in New York; the Interlink Festival in Japan; Other Minds in San Francisco; and Pina Bausch Tanztheater's 25 Jahre Fest in Wuppertal, Germany. She has composed, recorded and performed numerous original scores for choreographers and for film/video. Her large-scale, multi-media performance works, Parts of Speech, Gaijin and Voci, have been presented at venues including the Kitchen in New York, Theater Artaud and ODC Theater in San Francisco, the Museum of Contemporary Art Theatre in Chicago, as well as at theaters in Washington D.C. and Budapest Hungary. Her one-act opera Wunderkabinet (inspired by the Museum of Jurassic Technology and co-composed with Matthew Brubeck) premiered in 2005 at The LAB Gallery in San Francisco, and was presented at REDCAT in Los Angeles and Open Ears Festival in Canada. She has had audio and video works included in exhibitions at the Whitney Museum of American Art in New York, Recombinant Media Labs in San Francisco, the Erzbisch?fliches Di?zesanmuseum in Cologne, the Tang Museum in Saratoga Springs NY, and the Dakar Biennale in S?n?gal. Her work has also been presented at the San Jose Museum of Art, El Museo del Barrio in New York, and La Biennale di Venezia in Italy. Ms. Z has been commissioned to compose works for new music chamber ensembles: the Bang On A Can Allstars; Ethel, the California E.A.R. Unit; the Left Coast Chamber Ensemble; and the St. Luke's Chamber Orchestra. Since 1986, she has been producing ?Z Programs?, an ongoing series of interdisciplinary events in which her own work has been featured along with that of other experimental artists in various genres. She has collaborated with a wide range of composer/ performers, media artists, and choreographers including Miya Masaoka, Joan Jeanrenaud, Jeanne Finley + John Muse, Shinichi Momo Koga, Leigh Evans, and Jo Kreiter. She has participated in several Zakros New Music Theatre events (including their John Cage festivals), and has performed with The San Francisco Contemporary Music Players.

Tattoos and Other Markings explores the experience of memory, weaving together concepts of the old and the new, past and present; traditional and processed sounds from Armenia and Egypt, spoken text, and machine sounds. The piece explores the incompleteness of memory and the places in-between where things are less remembered and memory is more obscured.

About the book: No Wave, by DC-area music and film writer, Marc Masters, traces the history of this noisy and uncompromising genre, from its most famous names down to its many offshoots and sidetracks. Flashing through the New York underground in the late 1970s, No Wave was the ultimate anti-movement. Its bands consisted of artists and poets untrained in music, looking to explode rock and disappear before the smoke cleared. No Wave tells the fascinating story of this radical, anarchic and hugely infl uential musical movement. Best known for short songs and even shorter life-spans, No Wave bands fused disparate styles to fashion abrasive, rhythmic songs that were completely original and utterly compelling. The primary perpetrators ? Lydia Lunch?s howling Teenage Jesus and the Jerks, James Chance?s skeletal Contortions, the dark-noise groups Mars and DNA ? all drew on primitivism, performance art, and the avant-garde. The book also delves into No Wave cinema, where pioneers like Amos Poe, Eric Mitchell, and Beth and Scott B. translated the aggression and innovation of No Wave music to the screen. Musicians often starred in these fi lms, and figures like Jim Jarmsuch and Steve Buscemi fi rst cut their teeth there. Illustrated with rare and previously unseen concert photos, record covers, and other ephemera of the times, and featuring exclusive interviews with key protagonists from the scene, No Wave is the defi nitive guide to a genre whose sounds and ideas still vibrate through alternative culture today.

Like kindred experimentalists Double Leopards or Climax Golden Twins, Oaxacan prefer night swimming in murky, inky pools of gauzy percussion and reverb-drenched vocal abstraction.?
