    Grand Openings Meets You at the Corner of the Rainier Room in Seattle This year’s Henry Art Gallery Satellite at Bumbershoot celebrates performance in contemporary art. Grand Openings, a New York-based performance collective comprised of Ei Arakawa, Jutta Koether, Jay Sanders, Emily Sundblad, and Stefan Tcherepnin, has utilized the Rainier Room as a site of meta-performance. During the four days, there will be random workshops by Grand Openings and their friends; such as Hisham Mayat (Sublime Frequencies), Lee Williams, and K8 Hardy (on the phone). The room consists of a large empty E-shaped stage that functions as everything about performance. Some of actions & workshops are: • Umbrella dance • Selling cds & t-shirts • Bizarre international music videos • Pink Noise Paintings and Sound (manifest moment) • Theory of the Jeune-Fille • Interior decorating • Grunge & Riot • Pain dance • Forgetting the stage • Anthology Film Archive moment Workshop Schedule: Friday 12pm – 8pm Saturday 11am – 8pm Sunday 11am – 8pm Performance: Sunday 6pm – 7:30pm Exhibition Monday 11am – 8pm The Rainier Room’s function as a conference room inspired the seminar-like approach to the multi-day activities, Grand Openings one-of-a-kind performance challenge our expectations and the presumed roles of performers, producers, directors, and observers.

Grand Openings also features videos produced by members of Sublime Frequencies concentrating on obscure festivals and styles of music from around the world; documentation of previous Grand Openings performances; and other examples of multi-disciplinary performance art.

  • The Sublime Frequencies of New Old Media
    The Sublime Frequencies of New Old Media David Novak A new world of world music was built on Cambodian Rocks. The CD was released on the New York City – based Parallel World label in 1996, and for most listeners, it was hard to find anything else like it. The com- pilation collected tracks from a number of legendary 1960s Phnom Penh bar bands, most of whose members were executed by the Khmer Rouge soon after the recordings were made. Their brief reinventions of garage rock powerfully echo the impact of the US presence in Southeast Asia and the global spread of record- ing and broadcast technologies during this period. On Cambodian Rocks, the Western listener hears the psychedelic sounds of Santana, James Brown, and the Animals anew through the ears of seemingly anonymous Cambodian musicians. The mystery of the music was amplified by the opaque presentation of its ori- gins. The compiler, Paul Wheeler, an American English teacher in Japan who had collected cassettes on a brief tour of Cambodia in 1994, provided no biographi- cal detail for the material, neglecting even track titles or artist names. Although several of these songs are beloved classics for Cambodians, the backgrounds and artistic intentions of the musicians were unknown for Western listeners. For those cognizant of Cambodian folk music styles, the mix of sounds might suggest the continuity of traditional vocal techniques and local song forms beneath the novel rhythms, reverb, and twang of imported rock music. But most North Americans, who heard this music for the first time in the 1990s, were surprised and intrigued I would like to acknowledge the Society of Fellows in the Humanities at Columbia University for support in writing this article.

Uxbal (Javier Bardem) is een kleine crimineel in Barcelona, een spiritueel bemiddelaar maar bovenal een toegewijde vader die met zichzelf in het reine tracht te komen. Hij kreeg namelijk te horen dat hij een ernstige vorm van kanker heeft en binnenkort zal sterven. Uxbal wil de tijd die hem nog rest gebruiken om te stoppen met zijn criminele praktijken in de mensenhandel. Dat offer wil hij kost wat kost maken om in schoonheid afscheid te kunnen nemen van zijn jonge kinderen Ana (Hanaa Bouchaib) en Mateo (Guillermo Estrella). Makkelijk wordt het zeker niet. Op hulp van zijn manisch-depressieve, aan drank en drugs verslaafde ex-vrouw en moeder van zijn kinderen Marambra (Maricel Álvarez) hoeft hij alvast niet te rekenen... Voor het eerst na de schitterende gelaagde filmparels Amores Perros, 21 Grams en Babel (kc BELGIE, 2001, 2003 en 2007) doet regisseur Alejandro González Iñárritu geen beroep op de ideeën van scenarist Guillermo Arriaga. Iñárritu kiest voor zijn nieuwste productie ‘Biutiful’ voor één locatie - Barcelona zoals u het zich nooit had kunnen voorstellen - en één taal en houdt de verhaallijn bijna volledig lineair.
