PRESS RELEASE: "I Was Lost, But Now I'm Fresh" Public Art Project

As of Sunday February 15, 2009, The public arts collective 'There Once Was A Rebellion' (T.O.W.A.R.) [ http://thereoncewasarebellion.org ] will have placed sweatshirts intended for those who are cold and void of shelter around the city of Richmond.  Although we know it will be tempting, because these sweatshirts will look so fresh on your backs, please if you come across them, try to leave them for the homeless and those who are in more need of them than you probably are.

--

There Once Was A Rebellion is beginning to have regular meetings as an initiative to advocate public art as well as produce it ourselves. The group is meeting monthly to brainstorm about projects, workshops and initiatives to have more public art in Richmond. Some of the projects will be guerrilla based (street theatre, guerrilla mosaics, guerrilla sculpture, wheat-paste campaigns etc) while others will be commissioned (murals, mosaics, etc).

 The info below explains our first project. I thought that this may be a project some of you would be interested in.

On January 31st at a few people showed up at Gallery5's Lucent Phoenix Peoples Resource Center with some screen printing, sewing, stenciling and iron-on-transfer equipment for a project we are calling "I was lost, but now I'm fresh."  The end result will be hoodies/sweatshirts with imagery printed/sewed on them from various artists and hung outdoors for people in need of warm clothing.

The project:
1.) Artists bought old sweat shirts, hoodies, and equipment to Gallery5 to print with. (It doesn't matter what the imagery is; we are just beautifying the clothing.)

2.) The artists print on the clothing.

3.) We printed "I was lost, but now I'm fresh" on the clothing. And replaced the Tags with the T.O.W.A.R. logo.

4.)  Put the clothing on hangers (made from sticks and string) and hang them around Richmond for people to take.

By having a group meet together we can use each others' imagery/materials (depending on how comfortable the artist is with it) as well as pass clothing to each other to add imagery. Through the layering of imagery by various artists; the article of clothing becomes a documentation of a non-sensical conversation between artists and image makers.

The end result - like most public art - questions the white box in two ways: by using participants (people whom wear the clothes) as mobile galleries and by using the city as a gallery.

By adding the phrase "I was lost, but now Im fresh." the project has multiple meanings depending on the person wearing the object.
-When the article of clothing is by itself the phrase might imply that the clothing was lost
-When the person is wearing the clothing it might imply the participant being warm or becoming more fashionable

With this particular project we are trying to walk on the fine line of statement and entertainment.

Subject: Call for Sound: Audio Exhibition in February 2009
To: wendy.f.hsu@gmail.com

Dear all,

Hope everyone's getting a good start in the new year.

Next month, we curate a month long program devoted to the celebration of sound entitled - Audio February - at the Bridge Progressive Arts Initiative [ thebridgepai.com] in Charlottesville, VA. 

Our intention is to utilize the gallery space in creative ways to foster a sound-loving community.  We have scheduled a series of events, including improvised music performances, robotics workshop, radio documentary demos, and sound installations and lectures.

A crucial part of the month is the ongoing Sound Room, an audio installation in the main gallery space over speakers, featuring sound pieces by artists from around the world.  We would like for you to take part in this installation.

If you're interested, please send along a piece of your sound work in the form of a digital file (mp3, wav, aiff, etc) via email (greg@thebridgepai.com) or other file-transferring means (such as yousendit.com).  Along with the file, please attach:

1. Text related to the track

2. Your bio and any other pertinent information

 Tracks of all sort and selection are welcome.  We recommend track length to be limited to 25 minutes or less.

The Sound Room will open during regular gallery hours and at points during events through out the month of February.

We look forward to hearing (from) you.

P.S. We are seeking toy horses for the Opening Reception on February 6th – (seriously.) If you have any to share or leads on good pastures – PLEASE let us know at your earliest! Thank you.

Happy 2009!

wendy

Glows in the Dark and a Tribute to Warren Oates

Who: Glows in the Dark

When: Sunday 1/27 show starts at 9:30pm

Where: Commercial Taphouse, 111 N. Robinson St. (804) 359-6544

Cost: Free

Ages:  ALL AGES!!! 

In their first appearance at Commercial Taphouse, "Glows in the Dark" will once again be premiering new material!  This time they are taking their road-tested song "Warren Oates," and expanding it to include pieces written for three of the late actor's best films: "Two-Lane Blacktop", "Bring Me the Head of Alfredo Garcia", and "Cockfighter."  

More on Glows in the Dark:

"Burton's experience making short films and working with visual media infuses Glows-in-the-Dark's compositions with a storytelling, soundtrackish vibe."

-The Virginian Pilot

Featuring members of the bands Fight the Big Bull, Standards and Practices, No B.S., The Big Payback, and Ilad, Glows in the Dark is a "full court press" assault on musical conventions .  A sound forged from a million and one influences, and honed under the watchful eyes of the true-believer.  Jazz and Folk as seen through the forward-looking veil of the avant garde.  Basically a heavy way of saying they make cool sounding music.

Jason Arce: sax

Scott Burton: guitar, composition

Scott Clark: drums

Reggie Pace: trombone

Cameron Ralston: bass

More on actor Warren Oates:

From Wikipedia:

Born and raised in Depoy, Kentucky (near Greenville in Muhlenberg County) and attending high school in Louisville, Oates enlisted in the Marines in the 1950s. He began his acting career in New York City starring in a live production of the television series Studio One in 1957.[1][2] The actor migrated to Los Angeles where he began to carve out a niche playing guest roles in western television programs of the period including Wagon Train, Rawhide, Wanted: Dead or Alive, Have Gun-Will Travel, The Big Valley and Gunsmoke.[2][3] Oates first met Peckinpah when he played a variety of guest roles on The Rifleman (1958-1962), the popular television series created by the director. He also played a supporting role in Peckinpah's short-lived TV series The Westerner in 1960.[4] The collaboration continued as he worked on Peckinpah's early films Ride the High Country (1962) and Major Dundee (1965). In 1962, he appeared as "Ves Painter" in the short-lived TV Series Stoney Burke, co-starring Jack Lord. Oates also portrayed a number of memorable characters in guest roles on the enduringly popular television series The Twilight Zone ("The Purple Testament" 1960, "The 7th Is Made Up of Phantoms" 1963), The Outer Limits ("The Mutant" 1964) and Lost in Space ("Welcome Stranger" 1965).

In addition to Peckinpah, Oates worked with several major film directors of his era including Norman Jewison in In the Heat of the Night (1967); Joseph L. Mankiewicz in There Was a Crooked Man... (1970); John Milius in Dillinger (1973); Terrence Malick in Badlands (1973); Philip Kaufman in The White Dawn (1974); William Friedkin in The Brink's Job (1978); and Steven Spielberg in 1941 (1979).[3]

He appeared in the Sherman Brothers musical version of Tom Sawyer as "Muff Potter" the town drunk. He also starred in The Rise and Fall of Legs Diamond (1960), Shenandoah (1965), Return of the Seven (1966), The Shooting (filmed in 1965, released in 1968), The Thief Who Came to Dinner (1973), Cockfighter (1974) and China 9, Liberty 37 (1978). Oates co-starred three times with friend Peter Fonda in The Hired Hand (1971), Race with the Devil (1975) and 92 in the Shade (1975).[3]

His partnership with Peckinpah resulted in two of his most famous film roles. In the 1969 Western classic The Wild Bunch, he portrayed Lyle Gorch, a long-time outlaw who chooses to die with his friends during the film's violent conclusion. According to his wife at the time, Teddy, Oates had the choice of starring in Support Your Local Sheriff, to be filmed in Los Angeles, or The Wild Bunch in Mexico. "He had done Return of the Seven in Mexico; he got hepatitus, plus the revenge. But off he went again with Sam (Peckinpah). He loved going on location. He loved the adventure of it. He had great admiration for Sam. Sam Peckinpah and Monte Hellman were the two directors Warren would work with anytime anywhere."[5] In Bring Me the Head of Alfredo Garcia, the dark 1974 action/tragedy also filmed in Mexico, Oates played the lead role of Bennie, a hard-drinking down-on-his-luck musician hoping to make a final score. The character was reportedly based on Peckinpah himself. For authenticity, Oates wore the director's sunglasses while filming scenes of the production.[6]

A year before his death, Oates would return to his native state of Kentucky to co-star with Bill Murray in the 1981 military comedy Stripes. In the role of rigid drill instructor Sergeant Hulka, Oates skillfully played the straight man to Murray's comedic character. The film was a huge financial success, earning $85 million at the box office.[7]

Oates died of a sudden heart attack in Los Angeles, California on April 3, 1982. He had co-starred in the TV mini-series The Blue and the Gray, which aired in November 1982. His last two films, Blue Thunder and Tough Enough (both released in 1983), were posthumously dedicated to him. Oates was 53 years old.[2]

Today, the actor has a dedicated cult following due to his memorable performances in not only Peckinpah's films, but Monte Hellman's independent works, his films with Peter Fonda and a number of B-movies from the 1970s.[8][9] His occasionally crude facade, likeable persona and uncommon presence are admired by such filmmakers as Quentin Tarantino and Richard Linklater. During a recent screening of Hellman's Two-Lane Blacktop, Linklater introduced the film and announced 16 reasons why viewers should love the 1971 movie. His sixth reason, "Because there was once a God who walked the Earth named Warren Oates."[1]

CHARITY CHAN

Charity's live performances focus on the evocation of alternative timbres from the piano, and the combination of these sounds with more traditional performance techniques. The immediacy of physical gesture and collaborative communication are also strong influences in her improvisations. While her creative work is primarily in contemporary improvised music, she has also worked and studied extensively in the classical and contemporary classical idioms. Charity has performed throughout Canada and in the United States. Selected collaborations include: Lori Freedman, Anthony Martin, Sam Shalabi, Steve Bagnell, Dave Chokroun, Scott Thomson, Gordan Allen, John Heward, Damon Smith, Gino Robair, Simon Rose, Fred Frith, Maggie Nichols, Frank Gratkowski, Jean Derome, Isaiah Ceccarelli, Nicolas Caloia, Joane Hétu, and Danielle Palardy Roger. As a member of the trio Fenaison (Kris Covlin, saxophones; Rémy Bélanger de Beauport, amplified cello), she is an Ambiances Magnétiques recording artist with their first album arriving in Fall of 2007. In 2006, she conducted a tour of the Pacific Northwest (USA and Canada), performing with Noah Phillips, Scott Thomson and Jordan Glenn . She has conducted workshops in improvisation at the 1412 Gallery in Seattle WA and the 20-20 Arts Collective in Victoria BC. The summer of 2007 will include her debut at The Stone in New York City with the Ensemble Supermusique and the WONDEUR Quartet. Having earned a Bachelor of Music degree (piano) from McGill University (Montreal, QC), she is currently completing a Master of Fine Arts degree in Contemporary Improvisation at Mills College on full scholarship. There, her primary instructors are Fred Frith and Joëlle Léandre. Prior to that, she worked with Lori Freedman, Tom Plaunt, Sara Laimon, Jesse Stewart, Heather Toews, and the Penderecki String Quartet. She has also participated in workshops with Jean Derome, Malcolm Goldstein, The Sun Ra Arkestra, Joe McPhee,William Parker, Oluyemi Thomas, Lé Quah Ninh, Maggie Nichols and Frédéric Blondy. In 2006 Charity organized the inaugral "Free Improvisation Series Masterclass and Concert Series" at McGill University and has also worked as the Contemporary Performance Ensemble and Music Improvisation Ensemble at Mills College (under the direction of Steed Cowart and Fred Frith, respectively). Her academic research approaches music from a socio-cultural perspective, and focuses on embodiment, aesthetics, ethics and legitimacy, and cultural memory in improvisation. Her master's thesis is focused on the idea of expectation in different areas of improvisation: pedagogy, institutionalization, performace, reception, and aesthetics. She is a member of the International Society of Improvising Musicians and the American Musicological Society. Her academic work has been presented at the 2006 Guelph Jazz Festival Colloquium (University of Guelph), the 2006 International Society for Improvised Music (University of Michigan, Ann Arbor) and the Fourth Annual Interdisciplinary Jazz Colloquium, 2007 (University of Kansas).

From I-64: Take exit ramp 121 and head North on Monticello Avenue (Route 20) towards Downtown Charlottesville. Turn right onto Avon Street. Go 3 blocks to next stoplight and after the signal, turn right just before the 9th Street bridge. We're in the brown building, 209 Monticello Road.

 

From Route 250 Bypass: Take McIntire Road towards Downtown. Turn left on East Market Street. Follow East Market Street to 9th Street. Turn right on 9th Street. Just over the 9th Street bridge take 1st left turn at Graves Street and Monticello Road.

[BIOGRAPHIES]

:::: Bernhard Gal ::::  http://www.bernhardgal.com/ ::::

The Austrian artist, composer and musicologist Bernhard Gal has become internationally known as one of the most prolific sound artists of a younger generation. During the past ten years Gal has created around 50 sound installations and media art projects, combining sound, light, objects, spatial concepts and video projections into intense and often site-specific interdisciplinary art works. He also composes music for acoustic instruments and electro-acoustic music, as well as performing live as a (laptop) musician.

Born in Vienna, Austria in 1971, Gal began to nurture his interest in music and (sound) art around 1985. After studies at Vienna's University of Music (Sound Engineering) and the University of Vienna (Musicology), and a year-long residency in New York City in 1997–98, he has focused on his compositional and artistic activities. He runs the record label Gromoga Records and is director of the Austrian art organization 'sp ce'. Together with Ernst Reitermaier, he curates the Viennese Festival 'Shut up and Listen!'. Currently, Gal lives as a freelance composer and artist in Vienna and Berlin where he also teaches sound art at the University of Arts.

An important aspect of his work is the combination of music with other art forms, in solo projects as well as in collaborations, e.g. since 1997 with the Japanese architect Yumi Kori ('audio-architectural installations'). As a (laptop) musician, Gal performs in solo concerts and has worked together with musicians such as Tung Chao-Ming, Kai Fagaschinski and Jennifer Walshe.

Gal's work has been presented in concerts, sound installations, exhibitions, and radio portraits in Europe, Asia, and the Americas and performed by ensembles worldwide. He has been invited to numerous international music and art festivals (including Wien Modern Vienna; ICMC Berlin; MaerzMusik Berlin; Nuova Consonanza Rome; MATA Festival New York; Soundfield Chicago; Mutek Montreal) and frequently gives lectures and workshops.

For his music and art projects Gal has received numerous awards, including the Karl Hofer Prize Berlin 2001, an Annual Grant from SKE-Fonds Vienna 2002, a composer fellowship from the DAAD Artists in Berlin Programme 2003, and the Austrian State Scholarship for Composition 2004. Bernhard Gal's music has been made available on more than 25 audio publications. In 2005, the German publishing house Kehrer Verlag Heidelberg published the comprehensive catalogue book 'Installations', documenting Gal's intermedia installations since 1999.

::::Jesse Kuder:::: http://www.myspace.com/jessekudler  ::::

Jesse Kudler, born 1979, improvises on guitar, synthesizer, and electronics and makes music on the computer.  He attended public school until Wesleyan University, where he studied music with Ron Kuivila, Alvin Lucier, and a little bit with Anthony Braxton, among others.  He eventually became active as an organizer and performer in improvised, experimental, and electronic music, forming a regular duo with fellow student Jonathan Zorn and leading the large electronic improvising ensemble Phil Collins.  Kudler has also worked as a recording engineer for various projects.

In his various travels, Kudler has performed or shared stages with Jason Soliday, Brent Gutzeit, TV Pow, Nmperign, Howard Stelzer, Jason Talbot, Jason Zeh, Kyle Bruckmann, Taiwan Deth, Lotus, PSI, Milo Fine, Ellen Weller, Marcos Fernandes, Matt Bauder, Brainpaw, Mike Shiflet, Peter B, Horse Sinister, Pauline Oliveros, Matt Weston, Hrvatski, Greg Davis, Illusion of Safety, Daniel Menche, GOD, Sixes, Jack Wright, Tomas Korber, and many others.

:::: Jason Talbot :::: http://myspace.com/jasontalbot ::::

Performs and records solo, modifying a single turntable with minimal preparations to create a cascading wall of noise and subtle, creaking musique concrete.

:::: Scott Allison ::::

Memeber of DC freeprov group Kohoutek - electronics, contact mics, field recordings, treated speakers, turntable, six string acoustic and electric (learning), hurdy gurdy (all badly played with little virtuostiy). Ocassionally collaborate with like minded people such as Ben Owen, Jeff Surak, Walter Gross, Andy Hayleck, Ilya Monosov, Jeff Barsky, Tyler Higgins, Damian Taylor, Bonnie Jones, Paul Pavlovich, Mpld, Ting Ting Jahe, Chris Jeely, Chris Grier, and others... Live in a dirty little house with a tar covered back yard, have some shitty carpets, a dead kombucha sponge on by the front door, some old lamps, a few skulls, an old laptop held together w/tape and currently no internet connection. Red Stripe and fine japanese beers.

:::: Stephen Vitiello :::: http://www.stephenvitiello.com

"Electronic musician and sound artist Stephen Vitiello transforms incidental atmospheric noises into mesmerizing soundscapes that alter our perception of the surrounding environment. He has composed music for independent films, experimental video projects and art installations, collaborating with such artists as Nam June Paik, Tony Oursler and Dara Birnbaum. In 1999 he was awarded a studio for six months on the 91st floor of the World Trade Center's Tower One, where he recorded the cracking noises of the building swaying under the stress of the winds after Hurricane Floyd. As an installation artist, he is particularly interested in the physical aspect of sound and its potential to define the form and atmosphere of a spatial environment." Fondation Cartier pour l'art contemporain catalog for the exhibition Ce qui arrive/Unknown Quantity, 2002

Custom BlogNetNews

BNN has something new we hope you'll think is cool and maybe find useful. You can find it at BNN/FeedCentral.

In short, you can pick any section of BNN, then slice and dice it by blog, by category, by key words, then sort the new feeds by popularity (most linked, most clicked, most commented) and then have it delivered to your cell phone, your RSS reader, your email (hourly update or daily summary) your blackberry or a custom widget on your web page.

For instance, here's the RSS feed of the most clicked posts from Iowa blogs about the current battle between Hillary and Obama:
http://www.blognetnews.com/iowa/search.php?media=rss&rss_query=obama+hillary&order=k

or a feed to track the most recent wisdom from New Hampshire bloggers on Romney's religion:
http://www.blognetnews.com/new_hampshire/search.php?media=rss&rss_query=mormon

The element of this that I am most proud of is our partnership with BuzzMob.com. Working together, we're making blogs available in a way they never have been before - cell phones, blackberries and other mobile devices --  hopefully expanding  the reach of blogs and the blogosphere another important step. It is exactly this sort of thing that I had in mind when I founded BNN. By combining smart, human-edited aggregation with cutting edge technology we can make the blogosphere more useful to more people at the same time we help build readership for the best blogs.

I hope you'll help us spread the word.

ACRE Bio:

hey all! ACRE hails from the nw U>S>..via north dakota!.....ACRE plays heavy minimal drones by way of feedback from equalizer pedals and reverb creating a minimal but massive wall of sound.similar to the likes of phil niblock,sonic boom,and earth.I also spent the last 5 years in olympia washington playing in the power drone duo DEAD.WEATHER.RADAR,the black metal lords of lightspeed(pre wolves in the throneroom/post behead the prophet),and booking noise/ experimental shows at the historic lucky 7 house. Acts included,burning starcore,growing,yellowswans,john weise,gerritt,sixes,2673,jason zeh,opencity,twig harper,the whip,prurient,cant,pcrv,crank sturgeon,emil beaulieu, thrones,and so many others !...ACRE was also involved in the short lived exploder tapes label. my alter ego Aaron davis is currently playing bass in the bay area band gowns.

KILT = Raven Chacon and Bob Bellerue (with help from Sandor Finta sometimes)

Originally from Chinle, AZ on the Navajo reservation, Raven Chacon is one of the few American Indian composers working in the world
today.  His work ranges from quiet, almost silent music for classical chamber instruments and ensembles to solo noise performances involving devices created by Chacon himself. His pieces and installations have been performed and exhibited in across U.S. as well as Europe, Canada and New Zealand. He has also studied and worked with notable composers such as James Tenney, Morton Subotnick, Wadada Leo Smith and Glenn Branca and has received commissions from the University of Mary Washington and the ERGO
Ensemble. Recent projects of Chacon include performing in the west coast noise trio KILT,  and in the Albuquerque ensemble Cobra//group. Past projects have included the audio-recycling music of The Kleptones (U.S), founding the all-Native American experimental group
Modernativensemble, and playing in Los Angeles noise band, Dog Shit Taco, as well as numerous ensembles in the Southwest experimental scene. The recently released full-length disc, Overheard Songs is available on Innova Recordings.  KILT has several recordings available, including the "Snow White In Hell" LP, and "Sharp Dark Love" 3" on EMR. Chacon has an MFA from California Institute of the Arts (2003), and is currently a faculty at the University of New Mexico, Albuquerque. He lives anywhere between Los Angeles, California and Albuquerque, NM. http://www.spiderwebsinthesky.com

blurbs:

       
"Filling the booming structure with dark rumbles, antic squeedles and sheer blather,
Bellerue fully engages the cavernous sonics, creating chittering walls of echoed overtones
and hints of eternal combustion. He roars through the space like a giant robot, spluttering
sparks and evil intent all the way." The Wire (Dec 2006)

"a wicked ride through high force audio death wind" Bull Tongue / Arthur (June 2007)

"the BEST DRONE to be made in the past few years... Will keep you OVER satisfied till
the next TNB/ORGANUM collab... HIGHEST RECOMMENDATION!"  Hanson Records

"a beautiful and serene crawl through some black sonic underworld, ambient, but
subtly harsh, dreamlike, but ominous and mysteriously fucked up. The sound can

be cavernous one second, machinelike the next." Aquarius Records

over the last 20 years i've been involved in a wide range of live creative weirdness - homemade percussion ensembles, Balinese gamelan, dance/performance art sound scores, installation art. for the last 8 years i've been primarily focused on live experimental electronic noise art, and have toured extensively in the western US, as well as Europe and Indonesia. i was formerly based in Los Angeles, where i ran the sub-garde experimental music/performance space the Il Corral, as well as the Beyond Music series and festival, and a stint as TD at Highways Performance Space. further back, i was the main booker at the Che Cafe from 89-91, and played briefly with Crash Worship, Bizarro Sun, and the Super Sonic Samba School. i operate the label Anarchymoon Recordings, and am active in various ensembles including KILT (with Raven Chacon), Dead Wolf Black (with Sandor Finta), Feed the Dragon (with Albert Ortega), and LAMFs (with David Kendall), as well as sitting in with the folk-noise pioneers Smegma.

my work is based in feedback circuits used for synthesis; recontextualized field recordings; texture/drone/nonmusical instruments (shanai, rebab, gambuh, chinese cymbals, hunting calls, junk metal, sheets of glass); and a performance presence best characterized as animist/animalistic. i attempt to harness the sounds within nature, without imposing a deterministic melodic/rhythmic structure.
 
proper bio:

Bob Bellerue :: halfnormal is a noise artist, theater designer, writer, composer and curator. My work utilizes electronics and custom programming for live performance, sound installation, and prepared ambient (public & private) field recordings. With a background in punk / acid rock, Balinese and Javanese gamelan, and Tibetan Buddhism, I'm interested in the various ways that extreme sonic experiences affect awareness and identity, and the supple techniques used to focus and modulate energy. Over the last 20 years I've played in various percussion / rock / improvised projects, created original sound scores for many performance art, dance, theater and film pieces, and released dozens of recordings. I have collaborated with many powerful members of the west-coast noise / improvisation community, including Smegma, Raven Chacon, Albert Ortega, David Kendall, Mitchell Brown, Joseph Hammer, Circuit Wound, Jarrett Silberman, Frozen Body, and Tullan Velte. My work has been presented in Indonesia, across Europe, and throughout the United States, including the Yogyakarta Gamelan Festival, Centre de Cultura Contemporànea de Barcelona, Beyond Music Sound Festival, CEAIT Festival, SASSAS, NorCal Noise Festival, Olympia Experimental Music Festival, PDX Noise Festival, Highways Performance Space, Boulder Museum of Contemporary Art, Living Arts of Tulsa New Genre Festival, Dairy Center for the Arts, Machine Project, 7Hz, the Il Corral, the Smell, KXLU, KFJC, Kill Radio, Stanford University, UC San Diego, UC Los Angeles, Naropa University (BA 1995), and the California Institute of the Arts (MFA 2003).

Caustic Castle (Richmond, Virginia) is Kenneth Yates, also of the improvised noise duo's Harm Stryker (w/ Constant Mauk) & Insects With Tits (w/ Chefkirk) and an organizer with the HzCollective [ http://hzcollective.blogspot.com ]. Kenneth Yates utilizes the no-input mixing technique coupled with live processing using the on-board mixer EQ's, various filters, effects pedals and aux-sends to re-route the paths in which the feedback loops interact. With his music usually comes an abstract visual fascination with architecture and its psyhogeographical effects on the human psyche. Lately Caustic Castle has been collaborating with abstract visual manipulator Eric Eaton who uses looped 16mm film, detourned slide images, and stop motion video. Inspired by past revolutionary art and social movements like DaDa, Surrealism & the Situationiste Internationale, Caustic Castle struggles to find a parallel between art, sound & social unrest. Recorded live on October 23, 2007 in Richmond, Virginia @ Gallery5 Art Gallery by the HzCollective

Review of Ryoji Ikeda Datamatics [ver 2.0]

Review of Ryoji Ikeda Datamatics [ver 2.0]
Centre Pompidou, Paris
October 29th 2007
20h30

Datamatics [ver 2.0] is the latest electronic audio/visual creation of
Japanese composer Ryoji Ikeda where he mines data mania for both the
material and the theme of his work. The intention is a meditation on
the wild relationship between the sound of data and the data of sound
today. The effect, however, is a furious formalism that effectively
entices, but flattens and thins out the longer it goes on. That said,
the macabre grandeur of Datamatics2, with its repetitive
super-coded/anti-coded rigor, is stunningly beautiful on début. A
furious rhythm of inscrutable data discord is established from the
beginning, necessarily entailing a process of attraction/repulsion that
intimidated me while spawning some sublime ideas.

Ikeda makes speed manifest here, including the various speeds and
slownesses that extend the retinal limit in a way that would be
previously regarded as outside of phenomenological thought. The complex
installation work of Tatsuo Miyajima came to mind at points.
Specifically Miyajima's 1996 installation at La Fondation Cartier pour
l'art contemporain, where he made two large installations which dealt
with the abstract constitution of time in the digital age. Both
installations consisted of abundant LED signal-lights which flashed a
countless bevy of over-excited digital numbers in what appeared to be a
random order. One installation, "Time Go Round", had twenty green and
red digital modules spinning in various circular orbits against an
imposing dark wall. One discerned there a mystifying data constellation
in transit, reminiscent of passages from Mona Lisa Overdrive.

Time Go Round was an attempt to delineate the crisis of time in
relationship to the dispersed ontological self in the information age
(where digital time as the only time has become non-problematic in
computational work environments). Miyajima's artistic sense of time in
crisis served to encourage me to value the freedom of my own interior
sense of time.

By contrast, Ikeda's evocation of data time is riding high on speed,
and tempo here took on the implication of a dark temporal pop-cultural
product pit into which my accurate perceptions were poured - even as I
resisted fragmentation and remained fixed in the logocentric seat of
Renaissance three-point-perspective. This principle of hyper speed
coupled to visual overload makes inoperable the usefulness of the term
'minimal' in association with Ikeda; as Datamatics2 animates a
crumbling of the normal monuments to human difference we construct
daily. Ikeda's mixture of technical precision with perceptual overload
presented a significant challenge to experiencing interior time.
Perhaps it would have been possible had I been able to divorce the
musical experience from the visual torrent.

Ikeda's rapid techno music is created from slight electronic hums and
pops that build into gargantuan sonic textures, sometimes reaching the
noise intensity of Merzbow. Given his cornucopiastic range, Ikeda,
quite scrupulously, defies melodious categorization. This range allows
for virtuoso moments that provide the opportunity of exploring the
intricacy of his hard-edged myriad-colored dexterity as he plays
back-and-forth with elaborate but lucid musical aggregates that
facilitated mild waves of aural imbrication. In piercing clouds of
cacophony I heard traces of Xenakis, La Monte Young, Boulez, and Aphex
Twin.

But Ikeda's primary tool of coherence is what in acoustics is called
'duration', the steady-state of a sound at its maximum intensity. My
supposition here is that Ryoji Ikeda takes this musical phenomena of
duration and extends it into a general spatial intelligence based on
petite bursts of sound. The attraction to such an adjoining structure
is strong, but it wanes quickly. I suppose it must be like doing
business with a rather spectacular whore.

Conceptually, Ikeda's music reminds me that our once basic Euclidean
conception of space has been expanded to include the formation of
many-dimensional space. In Ikeda's music the Euclidean concept of space
is modified via excess by enlarging the number of vectors which may be
constructed within it from three to some much larger number (designated
as n). Such n space implies the existence of a higher-dimensional
geometry that mimics Euclidean geometry. Inevitably this approach
shaped me as the viewer/listener into an inert subject. The audio is
both clean, noisy and hardheaded in such a way that the individual's
personal extension into the virtual tends to be blunted.

There also, however, is another proposed spatial reality relevant to
Ikeda, most notably the topological space model of fuzzy space where
there exists only a concept of nearness. In this respect he reminds us
that hearing and seeing is not an activity divorced from consciousness.
But really, any account of Ikeda's sonic dexterity as related to
consciousness is inadequate to the facts of our actual experience of
it. Yes, his music is conceptual in that his sound deprives us of our
habitual perceptive boundaries by surpassing them. Through the
excessive, Ikeda makes us remember that throughout time there have been
consensual realities that have proven to be nothing but vast daydreams.
But Ikeda's music spectacularly fails to be in opposition to what
Donald Lowe in his History of Bourgeois Perception identifies as the
"bourgeois perceptual field"; a mode which he characterizes as
fundamentally linear, non-reflexive and overtly objective.

So, to conclude, Ikeda's initially mesmerizing presentation was an
experience always about to come. I say 'about to come' as Datamatics2
contains much manic machinic stuttering (full of Nietzschean multiple
affirmations and shattered teleological art-historical/art-hysterical
continuums) that never resolve. The stuttering I am addressing here
rests, of course, in the spectral repetitions of his mental-machinic
procedures: we see and hear a digital/mechanical shifting again and
again and again and again and again and again, but with slight
variations full of dazzling élan. So it is a vigorous abstract
stuttering I sensed in the work that took me down into a deadening
sensation of unfathomable data: the data of anytime-anywhere. Given
that implication of mythic indifference, Ikeda's a/v stuttering could
be properly aligned with the dada artistic legacy of Hugo Ball and
Tristan Tzara. It is a form of digital-dada post-conceptual art-music
in its absurd machinic indifference.

How does Datamatics2 achieve this meticulous indifferent stuttering?
Ikeda uses the precision of digital technology to fracture data into
tangled networks of beeps and lines - initially delightful and
exquisite nihilistic manipulations that tease our mind with their
multiple syntactical/semantic gestures of sadism, strenuously
massacring the social source material along the way. But like Op Art
(which it resembles) on crack, this stuttering stuttering stuttering
turns tedious and cold, shutting down feeling, reflection and
contemplation and hence imagination in my mind. In that sense Ikeda
only created pictographic and aural excavational moments that cannot be
sustained, but are instead mental acts worthy of short but frequent
revitalizations: again and again and again and again – a visual/audio
whiplash that slashes into the burnt annals of symbolist romanticism.
To follow Ikeda there is to evaporate into the puzzling archives of
some geek heretical doctrine and pop out again into a dead excess
vis-à-vis ideology writ large as system. In that sense he
pictures/sounds as an obscene thrashing of, and ongoing onslaught
against, innocence.

Alors? So are these subsequent revelations an abiding labyrinthian form
of abject nothingness? Yes, Datamatics2 is a blustering, bursting,
blatant banality, but even so I saw/heard in Datamatics2 the melancholy
monstrous traces and dissimilative Dionysian mannerisms of Novalis,
Chateaubriand, Nerval, Baudelaire, Rimbaud, Aragon, Bataille,
Lautréamont, and Roussel. That is hardly farcical nothing (albeit by
way of negation folded upon negation / instrumentalization upon
instrumentalization). But what is missing in Datamatics2 for me is
vague imagery and sound that does not depend on induction or deduction,
and exists prior to these forms of controlling cognitions. In that
sense, Datamatics2 cries out for access to the libraries of other
people's subconscious experiences and hard drives.

So Ryoji Ikeda's Datamatics2 is a stuttering in a hygienic but deranged
tongue within the vernacular of shattered techno signs and computer
music clichés. In that way Datamatics2 is anti-automatismic. We are
forced to think creatively and distinctively if we hope to un-pack and
self-interpret it's quintessentially dancing chaotic vision par
excellence. And when we do: we finally do come - enigmatic-lithe
jouissance. But the jolt as been sadly self-inflicted, lacking, as it
does, the tragic/emphatic psychic dimensions of artificial life (I saw
or felt no field of intensities invoking the inchoate and the savage)
and the open multiple model of atmospheric free associations. Thus the
event went a bit lacking, for me, in what Deleuze suggested to us via
Proust: something "real without being actual, ideal without being
abstract."

vital weekly review birds in the meadow

ANDREW D'ANGELO & MARTY MCCAVITT - TORN BETWEEN 2 HORSES (CD by Duration Records)
BIRDS IN THE MEADOW - FIRST FLASH OF THE DAY (CD by Duration Records)
Two releases from the obscure Duration label. I could not trace much information on these musicians, but it seems we are in contact here with improvisors from Richmond.
On both CDs Marty Mccavitt plays harsh and heavy electronics. There is no information on the equipment he uses. But from what we hear coming from his electronics, it is evident that he likes old-style, analogue sounding electronics. Also his improvisations show that he has his very own esthetic if it comes how to play electronics and built musical structures. You make like it or not, but he has clear voice and approach. I didn't like it immediately, I must admit.
But there is an sympathetic air of 'primitivism' in his his style. Is it Andrew d'Angelo who plays saxes on 'Torn between 2 Horses', on 'First Flash of the Day' it is Darius Jones who plays sax. So we have here two cds with the same instrumentation, which makes it interesting to compare them. The cd by Birds in the Meadow is the most varied and interesting one, as it shows more of Mccavitts electronic capabilities, and he is not so afraid of silence and quiet intervals here. Of both saxplayers Darius Jones plays in the most jazzy way, even lyrical and very human. This contrasts with the electronic world of Mccavitt, although it must be said that Mccavitt respects Jones in all ways. D'Angelo plays in more abstract way, and also rough. Here sax and electronics are completing each other in noisy improvisations. On both cds we hear unusual improvisations, specially because of the strange electronics of Mccavitt. And also successful improvisations as the musicians do meet and comm
 unicate.

Harm Stryker 'Class Consciousness' Review from Heathen Harvest

Heathen Harvest Review: http://www.heathenharvest.com/index.php?topic=webzine

Artist: Harm Stryker

Title: Class Consciousness

Label: Sockets

Genre: Electronic / Noise / Experimental

This CDR is presented in a raw cardboard digipack. There are two cardboard paper inserts that inform us about Harm Stryker political themes: opposition to gentrification and support of squatting, as the motto "may occupants rule." indicates.

Although it's noise, don't expect massive sound walls, distorted voices and mad samples, loud sudden white noises or loud metallic high-pitched gratings: it's not about a contest of destruction of the remaining listeners' hearing faculties. Here everything is really experimental and Harm Stryker work seems to demonstrate how to deal with and use silence. Maybe it could be called "ambient noise"…

Speaking about low sounds, we can find smooth and low oscillating humming patterns (02, 06), few rumblings (01), broken up sounds (10), and stronger distorted discharges (01, 02, 06), discrete low sound (03) or low vibration (01, 04, 06, 08) and in the closing track accompanied with stronger distorted droning sounds (12) A vibration that remains a machine even appears on the fourth track till a distorted chaotic rupture...

But, the core of Harm Stryker isn't in low sounds, but in high-pitched ones. High-pitched glitches (08) sometimes turns as annoying as some insect flying near your ear (06). Really high pitched sounds (03, 05, 07, 08, 09) are a constant. They often are oscillating and suddenly broken up (f.i. 01) by distorted discharges, rarely they get almost unbearable (06, 08)… Small white noise discharges (01, 07) also are featured, but let's not forget the white noise longer parts that sometimes replace the high-pitched hissings and sound really much more original usually (07, 08).

There are some peculiarities such as a clumsy noise remaining some brass instrument (05), radio noises (02, 08) electric noises (02, 05), metallic noises (01, 02), changing Glitches (f.i. 02), distorted parasites (07, 08), lower ones (11) and some others building accelerating patterns (05, 08). Well, let's say many noises are just indescribable (f.i. 02)… And, by the way, shrewd readers would have noticed the second track is a summary of this release diversity. Apart from that, the listener can notice some short melodic irruptions (09), sometimes as loud as brief (07), as well as the noteworthy proto-rhythmic forays made from pattern iteration on the fourth track.

Globally, the music often deals with long high-pitched noises parts interrupted by short distorted breaks: they punctuate the music, more or less steadily (f.i. 03) and indicate structural changes. The focus is also put on the slow evolution be it in tone or in oscillation of main sounds (often the high-pitched ones).

Really original noise project: although high-pitched hissings are predominant, there can be found many different sounds and sound manipulations. The point is not in superimposing many sound layers, but rather on cultivating originality of sounds and of their combination, poured in an ascetic fashion. Therefore, "Class Consciousness" truly deserves the qualifier "experimental" and maybe "ambient", because of its non invasive using of sound space and exploiting of silence. The whole is mostly low and calm. There usually aren't big and sudden changes in the sound's loudness, it remains mostly calm, 'ambient': not busy trying to make the most ear-blasting music. Some exceptions, maybe: the first track and the sixth. Certainly not easy to get into, yet clearly original. Suitable for amateurs of "calm" experimental noise.

WIRE Magazine Reviews Harm Stryker's 'Class Consciousness' CDR

Wire October 2007 Issue #284

Emerging from the 804Noise collective in Richmond VA, Harm Stryker are Kelly Nourse and Kenneth Yates. Their sound is at the more compelling end of noise music: it is burbling, pulsing and glitchy, atmospheric and textural, rather than a crude sandblasting of the ears. In a better world, Harm Stryker would be heirs to the BBC Radiophonic Workshop scoring the new TV series of DR Who. As it is, they exist in a marginal zone that this release is unlikely to lift them out of.

Class Consciousness raises questions it does not answer about the relationship between sound and politics. The title, the beautifully hand-screened sleeve and a couple of inserts- one denouncing gentrification, the other quoting Situationist Raoul Vaneigem- indicate the group's anti-capitalist orientation. But the lack of any linguistic content of any kind on the record itself- all of the tracks are instrumental and untitled- means that the way in which the music is intended to function politcally is left opaque. Are we to believe that the formal experimentalism of the music is inherently political? That claim would rest not on any agit-prop potential - because it is easy to imagine a listener encountering the music without having any political thoughts whatsoever- but on the sound's capacity to uproot the listener from their assumptions about the world. The problem is that. in becoming an established musical genre, noise has lost much of it's
power to 'make strange". Harm Stryker may be superior exponents of noise music, but they have not yet done enough to restore that power.

NOTE: There are recordings available for listening for each of the performers at the HzCollective Myspace. 

Artists Bios:

John Wiese is an American noise and experimental music artist. He is extremely prolific, releasing many albums both as a solo artist and as a member of groups such as Bastard Noise, Sissy Spacek, and LHD, and he frequently collaborates with other musicians, including Sunn O))) , Wolf Eyes, Thurston Moore ( Sonic Youth), Brace Paine (The Gossip, Die Monitr Batss), Lasse Marhaug, and Merzbow. Wiese also runs the record label Helicopter, on which he releases his own work, often in extremely small print runs.


C. Spencer Yeh Born 1975 in Taipei, Taiwan, moved to the US in 1980, and now based out of Cincinnati, Ohio. C. Spencer Yeh is active both as a solo and ensemble artist, as well as with his primary organized sound project, Burning Star Core. As an improviser, Yeh has been focused on developing a personal vocabulary using violin, voice, and electronics. Though those are his preferred methods, Yeh believes that an ideal player should be able to tackle most any instrument or object to create sound of interest, through focus and listening.

Collaborative partners over the years have included Double Leopards, Comets on Fire, John Olson (of Wolf Eyes and Dead Machines), Hair Police, Thurston Moore's Dream/Aktion Unit, the Hototogisu, Pengo, Pete Nolan (of Magik Markers), Jessica Rylan, Larry Marotta, and
others. When possible, Yeh plays in a trio with Chris Corsano and Paul Flaherty, as a guest member of Graveyards, and with Gordy Horn, a Cincinnati-based improv group led by Tim Schwallie of BPA and Wolverton Brothers. Yeh has toured up and down both coasts and the
Midwest, and has made appearances at the Victoriaville, High Zero 2005, Avantronics, the Destijl/Freedom From and the No Fun festivals. He plans to make select appearances at festivals in the UK and Europe in Spring '06.


The Carlos Giffoni sound can be described as psychedelic electronics for the new era of death and destruction hope music. He is a Venezuelan artist who resides in the New York City area since the year 2000, applying feedback systems, modular manipulation, rewired electronic instruments, analog and digital synthesis to the composition of electronic music pieces, as well as improvising live with local and international renown musicians. Carlos remains very active performing live in New York and in a number of tours and festivals in the US, South America, Europe and Japan. He is the curator of the No Fun Fest, a yearly event in Brooklyn bringing together a wide variety of international experimental musicians. He is also a member of No Wave/Noise/Rock trio Monotract.

Iris Garrefls
Iris Garrelfs is a composer/performer intrigued by change, fascinated with voices and definitely enamoured by technology. She often uses her voice as raw material, which she transmuted into machine noises, choral works or pulverised "into granules of electroacoustic babble and glitch, generating animated dialogues between innate human expressiveness and the overt artifice of digital processing" as the Wire Magzine put it.

Described as the Diamanda Galas of Glitch, Iris' training into creating through voice began very early on. Her parents sang in the village choir, and would often practice at home with Iris making up new melodies, 2nd and 3rd voices to whatever was being sung. She got into the attractions of technology as a teenager, stumbling across her dad's pulp si-fi magazines. Iris is still waiting for an implant that will siphon off her sonic nerve impulses, fragments of melody, rhythm and correlation floating around in her body and brain. A vital part of her work, be it using voice or other sound material, is improvisation and the use of random elements, the ephemeral fragility and risk implied in giving up control to me moment, a sonic singularity.

Iris performs solo as well as in collaboration with other artists, for example Robert Lippok (To Rococo Rot), Kaffe Matthews, Scanner, Si-cut.db and others. She also performs with the improvising group Symbiosis Orchestra. Recording collaborations include si-cut.db and Freeform - the latter has beeng re-released as part of the Bernt Friedman compiled and remixed compilation "Condensed" on Nonplace

The recent album Specified Encounters, released on the French label Bip-Hop, has been moulded from dissected voice sounds. Her new release on the other hand, fresh of the press, is her first ever 10″ vinyl piece, the radio project "(Talking) Space To Space" on the German art-label lich-tung, uses no voices at all. She is currently working on a globe-spanning "(Talking) Space To Space" installation and is very much looking forward to a residency at the Mexican Centre for Music and Soundart in 2007.

Music making aside aside, Iris is the co-founder of London based underground playground and test tube for current sound Sprawl. Artists featured have included Kim Cascone, Scanner, Kaffe Matthews, Christian Fennesz, Taylor Dupree and more. She is a regular on London's soundart radio station Resonance FM and sits on the Sonic Arts Network Board of Trustees.

As an outspoken person, Iris gets invited as a speaker and panelist at conferences and events in the UK and abroad, most recently at Visiones Sonoras in Mexico. Iris has appeared on TV, for example and ARTE TV in "Well Tempered Computer - Are Computers able to compose" and most recently on ITV's Mixmasters TV. This project has been released by Moonshine in the US and has received a nomination for Best Music DVD at the Dancestar Awards.

Friday @ The Pom Palace - Hal McGee, Ironing & AM SALAD

Don't miss this show! Please repost and pass the word that this is the place to be on Friday!!!!!!

"Hissing Across America" featuring Hal McGee and Ironing

Friday, Sept. 14
@ Pom Hole, Richmond, VA
500 W. Marshall
with AM Salad (Baltimore)

Ironing is focused on manipulating and recontextualizing somewhat autobiographical sound sources, altering them through lo-fi analog processes. A pile of cast off equipment, hissy tapes and damaged records get worked into a collage of microcassette field recordings, blown out Miami beats, local radio and abused cassettes in a noise collage meets hyperactive dub frenzy.
www.myspace.com/ironing

All you need to know about Hal McGee is that you will kick yourself in the ass if you miss this!!!! An excerpt from his bio on the Sonic Circuits site:
"Over the last 24 years I have made recordings in a wide variety of experimental music subgenres and styles (and have crossed and mixed these styles to make new creations): electronic, free improvisation, space music, electroacoustic, tape cut-ups, tape collage, industrial, power electronics, deconstructed rock, spoken word, "noise", ambient, abstract sound sculpture and painting, etc. Recently I became a member of the Tapegerm Collective, the Internet's premier musician community. And in October of 2006 I started doing live performances again, after a dry spell of 19 years. I have released 158 albums."
www.myspace.com/halmcgee

A.M. Salad is an ever-changing sound sculpture set in motion, currently existing at a junction between energized, chaotic rumble and waves of trancing drone; a moody, schizo-sensory treatment fusing meditation and destruction. Sounds are teased from mic'd wire, metal, tools, assemblages, and junk instruments by way of flailing, untamed movement from man, device, and environment. Sounds are altered and infused with various electronics.

The HzCollective Presents: an evening of experimental and avant garde
electronics from touring artists who are participating in D.C.'s Sonic
Circuits 2007 festival [ http://www.dc-soniccircuits.org/2007 ]

::::CHEAPMACHINES
Philip Julian (London) has been an active part of the experimental music
underground since the late 1990's recording various works under the name
Cheapmachines which operates at the interface between noise electronics,
generative software, field recordings, tape music and long-form drones.

Contact microphones, amplified metal objects, domestic radio receivers,
instrument effects pedals, environmental/found sounds, tape loops, damaged
electrical devices, analogue synthesizers, turntables & "prepared" vinyl,
computers.

::::POLYPHASIC
Polyphasic are a two-piece and produce their live set with reel-to reel
machines, weird old synths, scanners, mixers, ect. Its somewhat composed
but elements of improvisation are unavoidable

::::CAUSTIC CASTLE
Caustic Castle is Kenneth Yates, also of the duo's Harm Stryker (w/
Constant Mauk) & Insects With Tits (w/ Chefkirk). Kenneth Yates utilizes
the no-input mixing technique coupled with live processing using various
filters and pedals. With his music usually comes an abstract visual
fascination with architecture and is psyhogeographical effects on the
human psyche. Inspired by past revolutionary art and social movements like
DaDa & the Situationiste Internationale, he struggles to find a parallel
between art, sound & social unrest, or just perhaps provide a sort of
soundtrack to it all.

::::JASON TALBOT
Performs and records solo, modifying a single turntable with minimal
preparations to create a cascading wall of noise and subtle, creaking
musique concrete.

Harm Stryker 'Class Consciousness' Review from Bloodties Webzine

Harm Stryker – Class Consciousness CDR
Sockets: http://www.socketscdr.com/

Overall Rating: B+
Composition: B+
Sounds: B
Production Quality: B
Concept: B+
Packaging: B

Harm Stryker's latest release doesn't really bring much of anything new to the table but it is yet another great addition to their unique catalog of subtle high-pitched experimental sounds and subdued noise bursts. As usual the concepts of socialist underpinnings here are obtusely hinted at throughout the artwork but completely lost in translation through the entirely instrumental noise. The few screen printed inserts reveal a diatribe printed in reverse railing against the evils of capitalism and private landholding.

But you don't have to be a socialist, communist, or anarchist to enjoy the focused restraint that Harm Stryker revels in while leading the listener through the sonic labyrinth that is Class Consciousness. Inaccessible, abstract, and yes, even sometimes annoying but there is a clear vision here that cannot be denied. From the sounds of the first track, actually one of my favorites on the album, beginning with actually a higher mid-ranged tone rather then high pitched, and meandering to chunky hallowed passages of humming, onto screeching so-high-its-actually-quiet feedback, and dipping low again to bubbling grains of mangled synths the traack moves along nicely and offers an engaging opener.

Although probably the biggest issue with this album can be how forgettable it is as a whole, it takes focus and concentration on the part of the listener to truly glean the value of sounds presented here. If you are an unpatient person, I do not suggest this will be the album for you. The second track is another strong one with helicopter-like electronics joined by metallic "light" feedback squiggling about and melding together at times. The joy in these sounds is really how each sound is manipulated once it has been presented.

Generally I prefer the louder material here and the high-pitched tones that Harm Stryker appears to kind of fall back on by default don't help matters much. It seems to take the place of a "back beat" if this were rock music and can become tiring especially since it often doesn't differ greatly from track to track. Though the fuckery never stops, and yes, it could be said that they fall into wankery at times, but it all stays underneath a stylistic umbrella that defines the Harm Stryker sound.

Even though there are slow parts, and a lull about ¾ of the way through the album, Class Consciousness has a consistent aesthetic and solid, uncompromising vision. If I could have my wish I would have liked to see Harm Stryker come out of their shell a little bit and try something new, but I'm fine with having them continue to refine their unique style they practice on the fringes of noise and experimental music.

Serbian Interview with 910noise

Nenad Popovic wrote:

also we saw that you have some new releases. are you interested in sending us promo copies for a reviews?
sure i can send you some copies for review if you like. THANK YOU!

ok thats all for now. please answer as soon as you can. cheers, nenad

- First of all, introduce whole 910noise collective idea to our readers. How, where, when and why the whole story started?
910 Noise Collective
The numbers 910 represent our area code. The idea is to bring experimental & noise artists in the area together allowing them to express their art forms, exchange ideas, talk about gear, eat BBQ etc.

I spent many hours creating noise, strange, low brow tracks (whatever you may call them) over the last years all alone & never really knew how to find other people who saw the sound experiments as an art like I did. Then I saw 804 Noise in Richmond VA founded by Kenneth Yates 804noise.org. I really wanted something amazing like that here in Wilmington NC. I knew there had to be a way to bring noise artists together, so I started my own.

- What are the latest news in your collective?
New releases are the news for the collective. Here they are:

910-002 Mr. Stonecipher
An opposite turn from the first 910 Noise pro pressed disc. "3 - Codes" over 20 minutes of knob twisting by Mr. Stonecipher. Very limited 3 inch release featuring a hand painted insert with metal shavings included. Only ten copies were made. The release was given to chosen people only from the artist.
Mr. Stonecipher info:
myspace.com/mrstonecipher

910-003 Baby Daddy
Baby Daddy is harsh noise by Mr. Stonecipher & Carl Kruger. Produced in Wilmington NC u.s.a.
Superb packaging & superb noise collab.
Limited to 30 handmade copies.
Carl Kruger info:
tibprod.com/carlkruger.htm

We are recording a new release from experimental guitarist Jeff Chapple. Chapple plays live guitar for The Love Language myspace.com/thelovelanguage
This will be his solo recording, it will be a 10 disc release, a journey of sorts as described by Chapple. Production has started on the first 3 inch now.

Also related news:
Mr. Stonecipher has a collab coming out with notorious harsh harsh harsh noise artist from the Sinister & secluded hills if Oregon, IDX1274.
Entitled 1451 BLING.
Blinged out packaging (diamond blings and all) 21 minutes of well blend harshness.

Mastered in Oregon by IDX1274 & packaged in Wilmington NC. This release makes me tingle with joy.

IDX1274 info:
www.myspace.com/idx1274
http://idx1274.jeeran.com/

this will not be an official 910 release but it will be given out because Mr. Stonecipher is a 910 guy.


- What have you done so far? I see few releases, it looks like you do some noise festival too.
We have held a few shows here and the response is quite good surprisingly.
We haven't held a noise fest as of yet. We were invited to play at the We Fest here which hosts all kinds of local rock type stuff. So it was fun. I would say that we are walking baby steps at the moment but the idea is growing & more artists are showing up wanting to do new things. So this is a positive thing for the art and 910.

- Any more acitivities?
I am in the search for a sound source that everyone can use at the shows, that we can take with us. I believe that if we carry our own sound source, we can play almost anywhere & not being so reliant on the venue per say. There are some things in the works for some activities soon.

- Listening to your first release 910noise vol.1 we could see that noise and experimental expression is very developed i Wimington. Can you give us a bit of experimental and noise history of Wilmington?
As far as the history of noise I cannot really say myself, I have only been living back here for the last 3 years. But I would definitely think that there were and are other people doing or have done experimental stuff here..? They just have to look us up on Myspace.

What was like in the begining and what it's like now? Simmilarities and differences?
- How does enviroment and Wilmington effects your noise? What is like living in Wilmington? Tell us something about town too..
Wilmington is actually a beautiful coastal town that is circled by the Cape Fear River. I would say most people enjoy their time here in this town. There aren't many noise shows to go to or anything like that but if you wanna see a 70's rock metal bands and that sort of thing if that is what you are into. There are some great & talented visual artists here as well.

- Just how often are shows in you hometown? Where can you perform usually? Do you have any clubs or you performe at art exibitions, performances, festivals,...
- What is reaction of wider audience? Are there many prejudice or people are open minded?
We are trying to do shows about once a month, although the summer is a busy time for everyone. So it dosen' t always work out. The audience seems fine with the noise. I mean they clap at the end of a performance and all. So I would assume that the people enjoy themselves. To be honest though the audience dosen't even matter, we do this stuff for our selves. If no one ever shows up then so be it.

- 910noise vol.1 was first release for obscura art & records. Now I see new releases 910 02 Mr. Stonecipher and 910 03 Baby Daddy. So, is 910noise sublabel of obscura art & records or what? Or 910noise's purpose is to release just 910area bands and Obscura has wider releasing plans? Just, how Obscura and 910noise collective are connected?

Obscura and 910noise are connected because I run both of them.
I use both outlets to push the information about things.

Obscuraart.com is involved with releases like the first 910 Compliation & also subbed out to an online label for digital distro

Another outlet I deal with is
Numberonenoise.com
Which is also another label that I run that deals in online sales of recordings

On Number One Noise we put out a release of some GREAT industrial/noise produced in Warsaw Poland by artist Wiracki
www.myspace.com/wiracki

910 Noise is focused on releasing works and doing shows with 910 North Carolina area code noise artists only.
www.myspace.com/910noise


- On your profile I saw a lots of area organized collectives. Is that way of associating noise aritst popular lately in the States?
The nationwide noise collectives are broken down by the area code in which they live.
http://www.myspace.com/acnoise


- For the end massage to our noise geeks here in Balkan countries. Last noise is yours!!!

I have made some great friends (brothers) with the start of 910 Noise here in NC and all over the world. Finally I can create with a few other people what I have always wanted to. The love of it crushes any wall of noise. For me personally it's been a wonderful experience. Heck all you need is a BBQ, don't they have that in the Balkans? Bet cha they have great beers!

Cheers to you!
Ryan.

The HzCollective Presents: an evening of experimental and avant garde
electronics from touring artists who are participating in D.C.'s Sonic
Circuits 2007 festival [ http://www.dc-soniccircuits.org/2007 ]

::::Caustic Castle + Jason Talbot (rva/no-input/processing/musique concrete) + visuals by Eric Eaton
[ http://myspace.com/causticcastle ]
[ http://myspace.com/jasontalbot ]


::::CHEAPMACHINES
Philip Julian (London) has been an active part of the experimental music
underground since the late 1990's recording various works under the name
Cheapmachines which operates at the interface between noise electronics,
generative software, field recordings, tape music and long-form drones.

Contact microphones, amplified metal objects, domestic radio receivers,
instrument effects pedals, environmental/found sounds, tape loops, damaged
electrical devices, analogue synthesizers, turntables & "prepared" vinyl,
computers.

::::POLYPHASIC
Polyphasic are a two-piece and produce their live set with reel-to reel
machines, weird old synths, scanners, mixers, ect. Its somewhat composed
but elements of improvisation are unavoidable

::::CAUSTIC CASTLE
Caustic Castle is Kenneth Yates, also of the duo's Harm Stryker (w/
Constant Mauk) & Insects With Tits (w/ Chefkirk). Kenneth Yates utilizes
the no-input mixing technique coupled with live processing using various
filters and pedals. With his music usually comes an abstract visual
fascination with architecture and is psyhogeographical effects on the
human psyche. Inspired by past revolutionary art and social movements like
DaDa & the Situationiste Internationale, he struggles to find a parallel
between art, sound & social unrest, or just perhaps provide a sort of
soundtrack to it all.

::::JASON TALBOT
Performs and records solo, modifying a single turntable with minimal
preparations to create a cascading wall of noise and subtle, creaking
musique concrete.

BIO:

::::Double Muslims
Great instrumental outfit from Knoxville, Tennessee. On their debut 7"
they do something like a hybridisation of Sun City Girls and Minutement
(at their most Beefhearty). Which is not to say that all the music occurs
at quite that level, but the intent is certainly there and the delivery is
not far behind. - June 2007 (Wire)

Double Muslims hail from my hometown of Knoxville, TN and have the dubious
honor of being one of my favorite local bands from the past few years. On
this recording they are Eric Lee on guitar, Jason Boardman (proprietor of
local venue The Pilot Light) on drums, and Marcelle Good playing cello.
Everytime I've seen them live I've gotten a completely different
impression, once they were two drummers and two guitarists playing complex
math-rock but then another time they were Lee alone with Mountains of Moss
main man Adam Ewing joining him on banjo. Regardless, they make some great
music and you get a taste of both of those elements here. "Errors of
Menace/Stupor Creek" comes off like a hybrid of Dirty Three, Abilene, and
possibly Don Caballero to a lesser extent. This one's limited to 300
copies, numbered and sealed with a wax stamp. Good stuff. -Joe Davenport

Wiry, spacious rock/improv trio of guitar, cello and drums, in bed
together, and the mattress springs are sticking out all over, if you get
my drift - sharp turns of play and space, subverted by digital delay and
percussion that allows the musical elements to breathe and sweat as
needed. Squalor, to them, would probably equal the most uniform and
thought-out compositions of your GHQs of today, with a composition-based
attack and a full command of its wide vocabulary. Wouldn't place these
guys too far away from Gastr del Sol in terms of the attack, though
there's considerably more geniuine "rock" action here in a precipitated
kinda way. "Twice But Once" has a fine time exploding into reverie, then
pulling back with the appropriate amount of tension, until the track
sounds like it's weeping at its unresolved ending. Smart, joyous times
within a beautiful package, all from somewhere small in Tennessee.
Numbered edition of 300 in a letterpressed, foldover sleeve, closed with a
wax seal. -Dusted Magazine

::::Caustic Castle
Caustic Castle is Kenneth Yates, also of the duo's Harm Stryker (w/
Constant Mauk) & Insects With Tits (w/ Chefkirk). Kenneth Yates utilizes
the no-input mixing technique coupled with live processing using various
filters and pedals. With his music usually comes an abstract visual

human psyche. Inspired by past revolutionary art and social movements like
DaDa & the Situationiste Internationale, he struggles to find a parallel
between art, sound & social unrest, or just perhaps provide a sort of
soundtrack to it all.

::::Diagram A
Not a whole lot of information out there about Diagram A since he doesn't
have a website or anything, but he did send along a couple really nice
CD's of abstract electronics which contain a lot of depth and color, and a
lot of variation and restrain within the realm he explores, which is
sometimes more on the harshnoise end of things. he makes his own analog
instruments out of found objects and deconstructed everyday electronic
objects.

Jack Wright is either a very serious musician or else, too burdened with
that, he is hardly serious at all. At any rate, he has been a full-time
saxophonist of strange music since the late 70's, and even began playing
saxophone as a ten-year-old in 1952, just after the instrument was
invented. He is known to play with everyone, but that is only partly
true--he only plays with people who interest him musically. And since he
plays a lot of different ways, from free jazz to
no-recognizable-sax-sound, that's a lot of people.

Jason Talbot mostly performs and records solo these days , modifying a
single turntable with minimal preparations to create a cascading wall of
noise and subtle, creaking
musique concrete.

Caustic Castle is Kenneth Yates, also of the duo's Harm Stryker (w/
Constant Mauk) & Insects With Tits (w/ Chefkirk). Kenneth Yates utilizes
the no-input mixing technique coupled with live processing using various
filters and pedals. With his music usually comes an abstract visual
fascination with architecture and is psyhogeographical effects on the
human psyche. Inspired by past revolutionary art and social movements like
DaDa & the Situationiste Internationale, he struggles to find a parallel
between art, sound & social unrest, or just perhaps provide a sort of
soundtrack to it all.

eorðe grówan studied at Maryland Institute College of Art, where he worked
primarily in sound art. While in school he became acvtive in the
improvising community, where he played extensively with members of the
Redroom Community. He has been studying liguistics extensively, and has
been formulating methods of exploring language through sound, music, and
visual media.

Harm Stryker "Class Consciousness" Review - Noisear

http://noisear.blogspot.com/
http://socketscdr.com
http://myspace.com/harmstryker

Harm Stryker - Class Consciousness
Artist: Harm Stryker
Release: Class Consciousness
Label: Sockets
Year: 2007
Format: CDr
Tracks: 12
TRT: 39:15

This is my second taste of Harm Stryker and my first from the Sockets
label. I'm not use to softer styles of noise with sections of the tracks
being very quite but if I were to give off an example of a release for a
good starting point it'd be this one. Let's just say I didn't hate it and
there were some great parts as well. This disc is something that'd get
play from me on those days were I just don't feel like listening to harsh
noise or need something to read to.

There are 12 untitled tracks 18 seconds to almost 8 minutes. To me this is
"sci-fi" noise, much like Pulse Emitter. One has to really pay attention
to all the soft changes going on admist the high pitches and low squeeks.
To me, however, I think if this were one long 39 minute track it'd have
the same effect with me. The tracks don't very much in difference but
that's not a bad thing as there's always some changing during the whole
listen. The best part about this style of noise is I have no idea how the
fuck it's done and that impresses me a lot! I've seen and heard a lot of
noise so to hear something that I have no idea how it's made kinda gives
me all the more reason to listen to it. Amen!

The packaging for this release is pretty unique. We have a cardboard
sleeve, in the same lines as a 2 panel digipak, and inside is the
unlabeled disc and 2 cardboard inserts. One insert has the definition of
"gentrification" and a big bold phrase on the side "Occupants Rule!" The
other insert gives me a headache. It features a full page of text about
modern capitalism written by Raoul Vaneigem but the text is all written
backwards. kcuf dnim a s'ti tub daer ot ysaE. Overall a great listen
incase your ears need to recover and yes, Harm knows how to make noise,
even though some insects couldn't hear it.

What is Noise Music?

Independently from its content and outer form I shall define noise music in
two respects:
an approach which deals either on a microscopic or a macroscopic view on the
sound material.
a way of handling all involved parameters in form of feed-back, or
re-processing rather than in a linear way. Audible feedback may only one
result of this process.

The history of noise music for western music dates back to the development
of the church organ in the 14th century. Its capacity of imitating other
instruments and natural sounds laid the foundation of a perception of
something outside the abstract tonal system of western music. (Indeed, it
can be claimed that the organ was the first sampler.)

The idea of the "other" became predominant in Romatic music and was called
"nature", opposed to society, politics and civilization. The desire to flee
the latter resulted in the use of horns, symbolizing the dark quiet
forrests, bells, drums and other "natural effects". Romantic organ music
made heavy use of the organ's abilities to simulate natural sounds.
Extra-european influences, the Indonesian gamelan i.e., enforced the
dissolution of the tonal system.

Modern noise music, although already present in the work of Charles Ives and
Eric Satie, was first theoretically formulated by Italian futurism. The
writings of Luigi Russolo show rich examples of his idea of how noise music
should sound like, although unfortunately no recordings exist. It was first
of all the environment of the modern city, its traffic and factories, i.e.
the world transformed by the machine.

The first realization of a piece of noise music was Edgar Varèse'
"Ionization", using drum sets and sirens in 1927. (Russian futurists had
already tried to direct whole cities, Baku, as noise "orchestras", but no
examples of these experiments prevailed.) Varèse also thought of means of
electronically producing sounds, but had to wait another 25 years before
being able to realize his dream.
In the meantime, in the late 40s, we see John Cage, Pierre Henri and Karl
Heinz Stockhausen extending the developments of the futurists, dadaists and
also surrealists in the electronic realm with the help of the tape recorder
and vocoder, machines originally built for military purposes.
