A tour with John Butcher and Akio Suzuki that set out to allow the audience to experience (and to listen to) the enviroment around them in different way.
There exist places in our towns and cities that are created not by design, but by circumstance. Shadowed Spaces was a tour of overlooked, bypassed and unconsidered nooks and crannies with 3 musicians.

A solo improvisation using just the situation of the concert: a space, a PA, Mattin’s own thoughts, you, the audience.

Performances at Anthology Film Archives by by Loren Mazzacane Connors, Alan Licht & Jandek.
