Kylie Minoise Vs Nackt Insecten feedback/ vocal physical threat ‘vs’ ecstatic electronic cloudbursts
Individual experience separated by physical boundaries (of space, time or ability) suggested as communities of collective experience by (perhaps voyeuristic) artists.
Jean-Luc Guionnet will be giving a talk as part of the music department’s ongoing series of colloquia.
Thuja specialise in a unique and abstract folk music, a devoutly organic tapestry deeply rooted in the sway and bow of nature.
What would have happened in 1963 if someone from the voguing ball scene going on in Harlem had travelled downtown to perform alongside the early postmoderns at Judson Church?
A solo improvisation using just the situation of the concert: a space, a PA, Mattin’s own thoughts, you, the audience.

Slapstick comedy, monologue, and a kind of live sculpture transformed through video, props, musical instruments and make-up.
