Paul Sharits one of the great experimental, sometimes called structuralist / materialist, filmmakers of the 20th Century.
Sachiko’s very simple, pure sine tones and structures. Otomo on double pianos. Filament’s music isn’t composed and it isn’t improvised: it’s a hybrid of the two.
Noise music for the eyes. A 6 screen 16mm projection performance of intense audio and visual stimulus.
I wanna be with you everywhere is an everywhere gathering envisioned for and by disability communities and anyone who wants to get with us. IWBWYE returns to Performance Space and any space on June 21 for an outdoor pop-up and hybridized event.
We wanted to ask a bunch of the best high-energy-improvisers around; can musical form really taking shape via a group energy? Can individual concentration lead to a group consciousness?
A cinema of the mind, a film to take place in the viewers’ imagination(s).
A simple hands on workshop with micro-radio theorist and pioneer Kogawa.
A film performance about Guy then, and Guy now, as a metaphor for the passing of time, which of course all film is inherently about.
Julius Eastman’s Evil Nigger for 4 pianos performed by Joe Kubera, Kate Thompson, David Murray, Alan Fearon and Simon Passmore.
A silent collage of found film footage partially layered with computer graphics to provide a framework in which live music can develop.
A back and forth between Fred and Fernando on the transits and obstructions between mathematics and poetics, and how both help us to think from the other side.
Beyond time, colorlines, ability, and sexuality, a movement exploration into what it means to see and be seen, how hearing contrast with what is actually being heard.
