Dieses Jahr Wird Es Zum Moers Festival Kein Gedrucktes Programmmagazin Geben
Sie werden es mitbekommen haben: Dieses Jahr wird es zum moers festival kein gedrucktes Programmmagazin geben. Doch nicht der Spardruck allein, der zurzeit auf dem moers festival lastet, hat uns als Redaktion dazu veranlasst, das bisherige Printkonzept ins Internet zu verlegen – als Magazin-Blog innerhalb von moers-festival.de. Vielmehr sind es die vielfältigen und neuen Möglichkeiten von Web 2.0, die uns von der Richtigkeit dieses Schritts überzeugt haben – um das „alte“ Programmmagazin an der Dynamik und Vitalität des Word Wide Web teilhaben zu lassen. Sämtliche Rubriken im moers ferstival Magazin-Blog werden sukzessive in Blogfunktionen bis zum Festivalstart veröffentlicht. Mit einer Blog- typischen Kommentarfunktion können Sie direkt auf die Artikel reagieren – und am „Diskurs“ teilnehmen. Zudem lassen wir einige Musiker tatschlich zu Wort kommen und machen die mit Worten beschriebene Musik für Sie hör- und sichtbar – mit unserem moers festival Podcast etwa, oder mit MySpace- und YouTube-Links. Und über jedes Update in unserem moers festival Magazin-Blog können Sie sich problemlos per „RSS Feed“ informieren lassen. Die dreiteilige Struktur des „alten“ Magazins haben wir beibehalten. Im „Programm“-Teil schreiben Fachjournalisten Beiträge über die Musiker und Bands, die beim Festival auftreten werden. Im „Magazin“-Teil stellen Autoren neue Tendenzen und Strömungen innerhalb der Szene aktueller, improvisierter Musik vor. So hat uns zum Beispiel Hank Shteamer ein Update zu seinem letztjährigen Artikel über die „Young Guns From New York“ geschickt. Wolf Kampmann schaut auf die noch immer fragile Beziehung zwischen Europa und USA – und bringt uns zudem einen (unbeabsichtigen) Festivalschwerpunkt nahe: die neue Rolle der Gitarre in der zeitgenössischen, aktuellen Musik. -
Ken Jacobs & Aki Onda: “A Primer in Sky Socialism” with Alan Licht
1000 Dean St. #208 Brooklyn, NY 11238 718-330-0313 issueprojectroom.org Press Contact: Nick Scavo [email protected] Ken Jacobs & Aki Onda: “A Primer In Sky Socialism” with Alan Licht / Susan Alcorn Solo Saturday, January 13th, 2018 - 8pm ISSUE Project Room 22 Boerum, Brooklyn, NY 11201 $15 / $12 ISSUE Members + Students Ken Jacobs, Still from A Primer In Sky Socialism Saturday, January 13th, ISSUE is pleased to present a screening of Brooklyn-born avant-garde film pioneer Ken Jacobs’ 3D film A Primer in Sky Socialism, presented alongside the premiere of a film score by Aki Onda. Enfolding the broad collaborative spirit of Jacobs’ Nervous Magic Lantern (staged with Onda at ISSUE in 2012), Onda’s new score develops their uncanny audio-visual overlap and filmic dialogue -- one that exists between the found sonic interventions of Onda’s field recording practices and the ghostlike illusions, visual obfuscations, and abstract images existing in Jacob’s projection techniques. The new score is performed live in Ken Jacobs & Aki Onda: “A Primer in Sky Socialism” with Alan Licht / Susan Alcorn Solo January 13th, 2018 | ISSUE Project Room collaboration with musician and writer Alan Licht, who has extensively collaborated with Onda, most notably on their collaborative LPs Everydays and Lost City (also with Loren Connors). To celebrate the opening of ISSUE’s 2018 season, Baltimore-based pedal steel guitarist Susan Alcorn also performs solo before the film, showcasing her signature extension of the instrument’s emotional strengths and microtonal possibilities -- existing in parallel to the evening’s spectral subject matter. Premiered at the Museum of Modern Art in May 2013, A Primer in Sky Socialism continues Ken Jacobs’ exploration into 3D filmmaking, renewing his fascination with the histories and technologies of the moving image, a theme that has preoccupied his work for over 50 years. -
Miles Davis the Man with the Horn
June 2012 | No. 122 Your FREE Guide to the NYC Jazz Scene nycjazzrecord.com MILES DAVIS THE MAN WITH THE HORN CHARLIE • DARIUS • TERJE • POTLATCH • EVENT WATTS JONES RYPDAL RECORDS CALENDAR There are a few icons in jazz history who can be identified solely by a single name: Sonny, Trane, Ornette, Cecil and, perhaps most famous of all, Miles. The trumpeter (1926-99) was both an innovator and a household name (1959’s Kind of Blue is jazz’ New York@Night answer to Michael Jackson’s Thriller as album to be found in most record 4 collections). Much has been made of Davis’ many groups (who else has a first and second classic quintet?), his skill as a talent scout, even his gruff public persona Interview: Charlie Watts and indefatigable style. But lost in these discussions is an analysis of Miles Davis 6 by Sean O’Connell the musician and what he brought to the trumpet lineage in his nearly 50-year Artist Feature: Darius Jones career. On The Cover this month we speak with a number of Davis’ colleagues and stylistic heirs for their thoughts on Miles’ musical legacy. Tributes to Miles for 7 by Sharon Mizrahi what would have been his 86th birthday are at Smoke from late May through June. On The Cover: Miles Davis In our other features, drummer Charlie Watts (Interview) has spent his own almost-50 years as part of an iconic group (you may have heard of them...the by Terrell Holmes 9 Rolling Stones) but his other love is jazz and he has led big bands and released Encore: Lest We Forget: albums fêting legendary jazz drummers. -

It’s like Adam Kadmon, the original Adam, or even like the Jewish idea of the Golem that can be brought alive using language, if you know what I mean. Small events are great events, like blood into milk, like the miracle of the mass... I am allergic to ordinariness and I can’t understand people who don’t let art and music affect them to the point that their very existence is permanently re- formated. -
