Carl Stone: Hello I'm Vicki Bennett
Carl Stone: Hello I'm Vicki Bennett. Vicki Bennett: And I'm Carl Stone. CS: Nice to meet you. VB: [laughs] So thanks for coming along everyone. There is a lot of noise going on on the roof at the moment so there's going to be some strange accompaniments to our conversation. I think we first met about twenty years ago didn't we? CS: Yeah. You reminded me that it was in San Francisco or maybe more precisely in Berkeley. I was doing a radio program on a station called K.P.F.A, on my slot dedicated to experimental music, and you were my guest. I had a chance to interrogate you. VB: Yeah, indeed. And now we are turning the tables. ST: Twenty years later. VB: Indeed, indeed. And you're touring at the moment, aren't you? CS: Yeah small tour, started off in Holland and then came to the U.K. Played I guess two nights ago at the Barbican in St Luke's on a double bill with Yasuaki Shimizu, went into sort of your hometown territory in Colchester, performing in Scotland after this and then going back to Japan where I live. VB: Just so I'm going to ask you some questions that start a while ago. You studied at Cal Arts under Morton Subotnick and James Tenney. Just wondering what was it like to be working at that time in that location? CS: Well, it was a really exciting time for me - I was just fresh out of high school, I was an undergraduate, eighteen years old and starting out, I hadn't had a lot of exposure to contemporary or experimental music but I had come across some electronic music and found it fascinating so I was interested in pursuing that. -

THE AUDIOVISUAL BREAKTHROUGH Ana Carvalho
THE AUDIOVISUAL BREAKTHROUGH Ana Carvalho and Cornelia Lund (eds.) 21 41 83 109 129 THE AUDIOVISUAL BREAKTHROUGH 7 PRACTICE AND DISCOURSE. AN INTRODUCTION AS MANUAL Ana Carvalho and Cornelia Lund The Audiovisual Breakthrough guides us across the landscape of artistic live practi- ces that present sound and image through technological means. This landscape has been radically reshaped during the last 20 years due to technological developments causing what we might call an “audiovisual breakthrough,” which means that audio- visual artistic production has gained a certain visibility and a certain, even institutionalized, standing. The main objective of this book, however, is not to portray this landscape with its main players and their activities, but to find out more about the underlying concepts that help us explain these activities. � Whoever has been trying to write an academic or curatorial text on this area has probably felt trapped in a confusing web of unclear, or even inconsistent, definitions. Visual music, expanded cinema, VJing, live cinema, and live audiovisual performance are the most widely used concepts here, each of these terms addressing a different angle of contemporary audiovisual pro- duction contextualized within specific fea- tures and a related history. Holding this in mind, The Audiovisual Breakthrough aims at developing useful definitions for both the theoretical debate and the performance obvious that clarifications were needed for context. � � � We might of course say— meaningful communication about and with- especially as performers—that we “really 9 in the field of artistic AV production to be don’t care” and that we are “more interested possible in the future. -
Feature Film Project Summary Logline Synopsis
HERE Feature Film Project Summary A Braden King Film Written by Braden King and Dani Valent Producers: Lars Knudsen, Jay Van Hoy Co-Producer: Jeff Kalousdian Executive Producers: Zoe Kevork, Julia King A Truckstop Media / Parts and Labor Production 302A W. 12th St., #223 New York, New York 10014 (212) 989-7105 / [email protected] www.herefilm.info Logline HERE is a dramatic, landscape-obsessed road movie that chronicles a brief but intense romantic relationship between an American satellite-mapping engineer and an expatriate Armenian art photographer who impulsively decide to travel together into uncharted territory. Synopsis Will Shepard is an American satellite-mapping engineer contracted to create a new, more accurate survey of the country of Armenia. Within the industry, his solitary work - land-surveying satellite images to check for accuracy and resolve anomalies - is called “ground-truthing”. He’s been doing it on his own, for years, all over the world. But on this trip, his measurements are not adding up. Will meets Gadarine Najarian at a rural hotel. Tough and intriguing, she’s an expatriate Armenian art photographer on her first trip back in ages, passionately trying to figure out what kind of relationship - if any - she still has with her home country and culture. Fiercely independent, Gadarine is struggling to resolve the life she’s led abroad with the Armenian roots that run so deeply through her. There is an instant, unconscious bond between these two lone travelers; they impulsively decide to continue together. HERE tells the story of their unique journey and the dramatic personal transformations it leads each of them through. -

Add your voice to support the bilingual global marketing of Japanese CD and DVD music masterpieces now available only to the Japanese market. Look inside the 19th-century cultural conflicts stirred by Westernization when Japanese instruments were banned from the schools in favor of the piano and violin. 3 The Institute for Medieval Japanese Studies takes on a new name: THE INSTITUTE FOR JAPANESE CULTURAL HERITAGE INITIATIVES The year 2013 marks the 45th year of the Institute’s founding in 1968. We mark it with a time-honored East Asian practice— ―a rectification of names.‖ The word ―medieval‖ served the Institute well during its first decades, when the most pressing research needs were in the most neglected of Japanese historical eras and disciplines— early 14th- to late 16th-century literary and cultural history, labeled ―medieval‖ by Japanese scholars. -
Noise in Music Or Music in Noise? a Short Discussion on the Incorporation of “Other” Sounds in Music Making
University of Alberta Noise in Music or Music in Noise? A Short Discussion on the Incorporation of “Other” Sounds in Music Making Essay Submitted as part of the Music History exam of the Qualifying Exams, for the degree of Doctor in Music Composition Faculty of Arts Department of Music by Nicolás Alejandro Mariano Arnáez Edmonton, Alberta January 2017 “We affirm that the world’s magnificence has been enriched by a new beauty: the beauty of speed. A racing car whose hood is adorned with great pipes, like serpents of explosive breath— a roaring car that seems to ride on grapeshot is more beautiful than the Victory of Samothrace.” (Marinetti 1909) Introduction When a physical source produces periodic or aperiodic vibrations in the air within a certain frequency, and there are human ears near by, they receive a meaning assigned by our brain. When we have the necessity of verbalize the sonic image produced by those vibrations, we need to choose a word available in our language that best describes what we felt sonically. Words associated with this practice of describing what we perceive are commonly “sound”, “noise”, “music”, “tone”, and such. The question is, what does make us to choose within one word or another? Many inquiries will arise if we analyze our selection. For example, if we say “that is music” we may be implying that music is not tone, or noise, or even sound! Personally speaking, I find a deep and intimate sensation of peace when hearing the sound of water moving in a natural environment, it generates that specific feeling on my human brain and body. -

A Lengthwise Slash David Grubbs, 2011 I First Met Arnold Dreyblatt In
A Lengthwise Slash David Grubbs, 2011 I first met Arnold Dreyblatt in 1996 when he came to Chicago at Jim O’Rourke’s urging. At the time Jim and I were the two core members of the group Gastr del Sol, and we also co-directed the Dexter’s Cigar reissue label for Drag City. The basic idea of Dexter’s Cigar was that there were any number of out-of-print, underappreciated recordings that, if heard, would put contemporary practitioners to shame. Just try to stack your solo free-improv guitar playing versus Derek Bailey’s Aida. Think your power electronics group is hot? Care to take a listen to Merzbow’s Rainbow Electronics 2? Do you fancy a shotgun marriage of critical theory and ramshackle d.i.y. pop? But you’ve never heard the Red Krayola and Art and Language’s Corrected Slogans? Gastr del Sol work time was as often as not spent sharing new discoveries and musical passions. Jim and I both flipped to Dreyblatt’s 1995 Animal Magnetism (Tzadik; which Jim nicely described “as if the Dirty Dozen Brass Band got a hold of some of Arnold’s records and decided to give it a go”) as well as his ingenious 1982 album Nodal Excitation (India Navigation), with its menagerie of adapted and homemade instruments (midget upright pianoforte, portable pipe organ, double bass strung with steel wire, and so on). We knew upon a first listen that we were obliged to reissue Nodal Excitation. The next time that Arnold blew through town, we had him headline a Dexter’s Cigar show at the rock club Lounge Ax. -
Scambi Fushi Tarazu: a Musical Representation of a Drosophila Gene Expression Pattern
Preprints (www.preprints.org) | NOT PEER-REVIEWED | Posted: 4 January 2020 doi:10.20944/preprints202001.0026.v1 Scambi fushi tarazu: A Musical Representation of a Drosophila Gene Expression Pattern Derek Gatherer Division of Biomedical & Life Sciences Lancaster University Lancaster LA1 4YW, UK [email protected] Abstract: The term Bio-Art has entered common usage to describe the interaction between the arts and the biological sciences. Although Bio-Art implies that Bio-Music would be one of its obvious sub- disciplines, the latter term has been much less frequently used. Nevertheless, there has been no shortage of projects that have brought together music and the biological sciences. Most of these projects have allowed the biological data to dictate to a large extent the sound produced, for instance the translation of genome or protein sequences into musical phrases, and therefore may be regarded as process compositions. Here I describe a Bio-Music process composition that derives its biological input from a visual representation of the expression pattern of the gene fushi tarazu in the Drosophila embryo. An equivalent pattern is constructed from the Scambi portfolio of short electronic music fragments created by Henri Pousseur in the 1950s. This general form of the resulting electronic composition follows that of the fushi tarazu pattern, while satisfying the rules of the Scambi compositional framework devised by Pousseur. The range and flexibility of Scambi make it ideally suited to other Bio-Music projects wherever there is a requirement, or desire, to build larger sonic structures from small units. Keywords: Scambi; fushi tarazu; Drosophila; BioArt; BioMusic; Music; process composition 1 © 2020 by the author(s). -
Unbecoming Adults: Adolescence and the Technologies of Difference in Post
Unbecoming Adults: Adolescence and the Technologies of Difference in Post-1960s US Ethnic Literature and Culture DISSERTATION Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By James K. Harris, M.A. Graduate Program in English The Ohio State University 2017 Dissertation Committee: Dr. Martin Joseph Ponce, Advisor Dr. Lynn Itagaki Dr. Jian Chen Copyright by James K. Harris 2017 Abstract Adolescence has always been a cultural construction. The designation of a separate space apart from the presumed innocence of childhood and the myths of autonomy and responsibility that come to define adulthood is a surprisingly modern phenomenon. As such, adolescence bears the traces of the ideologies of race, gender, sexuality, and nation that attend so much of the period that calls itself “modernity.” My dissertation asks how writers and artists of color imagine themselves into the archive of coming of age narratives in post-1960s US literature and culture. In thinking about the importance of identity in the period following the advent of nominal civil rights, I offer the “long(er) civil rights movement” as a way of resisting the move to periodize the struggles through which difference has historically accrued meaning in the US nation- state. Each chapter centers around a “technology,” the academy, the body, the entertainment industry, and the internet, which is essential to the formation of adolescent identity in the post-war era, alongside a key term in the lexicon of American culture that accrues added meanings when filtered through the experience of difference. -
