Cartoon Justice will perform live improvisations based on Mika Pontecorvo’s work in generative architectures. This performance will include the first results of an evolving visual system of kinetic ambient fiction designed/developed by Mika with Neal Elzenga.
Animations will include “ExoTV: Enigmatic Adventures” excerpts:
blipvert/subvert (Due), choreo (Qua), and aqua (Tre).
(these utilize the artwork of and are in collaboration with Artist/Writer Professor Meg Schoerke.) 
Mika studied composition with and worked for the late Professor Vladimir Ussachevsky, in addition to his R&D work in artificial intelligence, virtual environments and interactive media. Neal applies art, math, science, and a larger than average brain to defining emerging areas of the user/media interface. Neal and Mika were voted most-likely to be ‘techno-gangsters from
the 29th century’ by their collegues in the research labs of Akashi, Japan.
Ardiane has been playing in live improvised settings since first performing live improvised film scores in a playing in a jazz-psychedelic-arabic fusion band in 2004, and has performed in a number of noise and experimental rock units since.
Kaylee Comb's music reflect the flow of water as they stream from one mood to another--Sometimes soft; sometimes intense; sometimes both. Improvisations are fueled by environmental impressions of the moment. Swoondoll music lends itself well & interestingly to visual art, as images are used to improvise from. Kalee is classically trained, uses folk songs, & elements of early European chant. Words that describe Swoondoll are: phantasmagoric, swirling, ethereal, ambient, textural, otherworldly, hyper dimensional, tonal collage, mystical, ghostly, pure. Much of the music is created with voice and delay, keyboard/organ. Bits of sounds, such as, clocks, animals, and industrial machines are added to layers of voice and drone sounds.
Cost : $6-10
