    The Golden Age of Non-Idiomatic Improvisation FYS 129 David Keffer, Professor Dept. of Materials Science & Engineering The University of Tennessee Knoxville, TN 37996-2100 [email protected] http: //cl ausi us.engr.u tk.e du / Various Quotes These slides contain a collection of some of the quotes largely from the musicians that are studied during the course. The idea is to present “musicians in their own words”. Thurston Moore American guitarist and vocalist (July 25, 1958—) Background on Sonic Youth Thurston Moore was a guitarist and vocalist for Sonic Youth. Sonic Youth was an American alternative rock band from New York City, formed in 1981. Their lineup largely consisted of Thurston Moore (guitar and vocals), Kim Gordon (bass guitar, vocals, and guitar), Lee Ranaldo (guitar and vocals), Steve Shelley (drums). In their early career, Sonic Youth was associated with the no wave art and music scene in New York City. Part of the first wave of American noise rock groups, the band carried out their interpretation of the hardcore punk ethos throughout the evolving American underground that focused more on the DIY ethic of the genre rather than its specific sound. As a result, some consider Sonic Youth as pivotal in the rise of the alternative rock and indie rock movementThbdts. The band exper ience d success an ditild critical acc lithhtlaim throughout their existence, continuing into the new millennium, including signing to major label DGC in 1990, and headlining the 1995 Lollapalooza festival. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sonic_youth Moore Quotes Q: What led Sonic Youth to do a project like Goodbye 20th Century? Moore: It was definitely a universe or world that we were aware of.

  • Social Photography VI Prints Available Online from June 28Th At: Socialphotography.Carriagetrade.Org See Details on Purchasing Below*
    Joianne Bittle, Empty Met - European paintings gallery, 2018 ​ ​ Social Photography VI Prints available online from June 28th at: socialphotography.carriagetrade.org See details on purchasing below* Online Sales Begin: Thursday, June 28 Gallery Exhibition Opens: Tuesday, July 10, 6-8 PM carriage trade 277 Grand St, 2nd Fl. New York, NY 10002 ​ ​ First presented in 2011, carriage trade’s Social Photography exhibitions have catalogued the rapid transformation of cell phone photography over the last several years. From a novelty medium existing between the voice and text functions of flip phones, to the smart phone as near physical appendage capable of recording and transmitting every waking moment, the cell phone camera now plays a pervasive role in many people’s lives. While Instagram tends to emphasize the medium’s social utility, carriage trade’s Social Photography exhibitions have tracked an alternate course, inviting participants and viewers to encounter these images in a format free of peer-generated tallies, while offering the option of a sustained look afforded by a gallery setting. Social Photography contributors are not limited to visual artists, and include writers, curators, musicians, students, etc., reflecting the accessibly and ubiquity of cell phone camera use. Functioning as a benefit exhibition to help support upcoming programming at carriage trade, there is no particular theme guiding Social Photography VI apart from how the cell phone camera is most often used. Participants email images from their phones to carriage trade, which are then formatted, printed on 7" x 5" paper, and sold online and in the gallery during the exhibition. Less a sanctioning of an evolving medium than a hybrid of a traditional exhibition format and the wider net of social media, Social Photography also functions as a means to sustain and expand carriage trade’s community, which exists in the combined spheres of online experience and the irreplaceable physicality of the exhibition space itself.

  • Olivier Assayas
    [email protected] • www.janusfilms.com “No one sees anything. Ever. They watch, but they don’t understand.” So observes Connie Nielsen in Olivier Assayas’s hallucinatory, globe-spanning demonlover, a postmodern neonoir thriller and media critique in which nothing—not even the film itself—is what it appears to be. Nielsen plays Diane de Monx, a Volf Corporation executive turned spy for rival Mangatronics in the companies’ battle over the lucrative market of internet adult animation. But Diane may not be the only player at Volf with a hidden agenda: both romantic interest Hervé (Charles Berling) and office enemy Elise (Chloë Sevigny) seem to know her secret and can easily use it against her for their own purposes. As the stakes grow higher and Diane ventures into deadlier territory, and as Sonic Youth’s score pulses, Assayas explores the connections between multinational businesses and extreme underground media as well as the many ways twenty-first-century reality increasingly resembles violent, disorienting fiction.

  • Now Theatre & Dance
    apr 20 now Hello! The arts can be a powerful tool for influencing how to understand the world around us, particularly when it comes to experiences we haven’t had personally. While this can be positive, it can also result in reducing communities to cliché. This is particularly true for people with autism, who often are portrayed in cinema in a reductionist manner. Our season Autism and Cinema: An exploration of neurodiversity (see pages 5-6) seeks to change that, and asks us to consider what we might learn about our own worldview by looking at it from an autistic perspective. Pondering on identity is also something that’s occupied photographer Hans Eijkelboom, whose work forms part of our major exhibition Masculinities: Liberation through Photography (page 12); while Virginia Woolf’s ground- breaking novel Orlando also explores what identity means – as Katie Mitchell and Alice Birch’s adaptation (page 13) shows. Also this month we welcome back Shards – the pioneering vocal group (page 2), and conductor Jaap van Zweden for his first concerts in London as the Music Director of the New York Phil (page 4). There’s exciting news about a new fashion range we’re producing (page 18), and if you want to get hands-on, head for one of our workshops (page 17).

  • THE ORCHESTRA of FUTURIST NOISE INTONERS Luciano Chessa, Director
    Intonarumori, ArtBasel Miami Beach, 2011, photo by Javier Sanchez THE ORCHESTRA OF FUTURIST NOISE INTONERS Luciano Chessa, Director A Performa 09 Commission These eccentric hurdy-gurdy instruments first created in 1913 still sounded musically radical after all these years. Roberta Smith for The New York Times The Orchestra of Futurist Noise Intoners is the only complete replica of futurist composer/sound artist Luigi Russolo’s legendary intonarumori orchestra. The orchestra tours worldwide, presenting concerts that feature historical and new works commissioned from an all-star cast of experimental composers, some performing live alongside this orchestra of raucous mechanical synthesizers. The orchestra’s composers include Sonic Youth’s founding guitarist Lee Ranaldo, seminal composer/vocalist Joan La Barbara, Einstürzende Neubauten frontman and Nick Cave collaborator Blixa Bargeld, avant-garde saxophonist John Butcher, Deep Listening pioneer Pauline Oliveros, Faith No More and Mr. Bungle vocalist Mike Patton, avant-garde musician Elliott Sharp, and composer/vocalist Jennifer Walshe collaborating with late composer and film/video artist Tony Conrad, among others. For further details and touring information contact Esa Nickle at Performa on +1 212 366 5700, or email [email protected] HISTORY As part of its celebration of the 100th anniversary of Italian Futurism, the Performa 09 biennial, in collaboration with the Experimental Media and Performing Arts Center (EMPAC) and the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art (SFMOMA), invited Luciano Chessa to reconstruct Russolo’s intonarumori. Supervising Bay Area craftsman Keith Carey, Chessa succeeded in recreating for the first time Russolo’s earliest intonarumori orchestra, originally unveiled in Milan in the Summer of 1913 (16 instruments—8 noise families of 1-3 instruments each, in various registers).

    Kolaj A. Fairlie, ’Modern-day Witch of L.A.: A Profile of Marnie Weber’ Spring 2014, p. 2 - 7 Running Away by Marnie Weber 95.75"x75.75" collage on light jet print 2007 courtesy of the artist Photo: LeeAnn Nickel Kolaj A. Fairlie, ’Modern-day Witch of L.A.: A Profile of Marnie Weber’ Spring 2014, p. 2 - 7 Modern-day Witch of L.A. A Profile of Marnie Weber by Ariane Fairlie “When your subconscious is creating dreams it creates images & juxtaposes them.” Marnie Weber is a modern-day witch o f Los Angeles. Her diverse artistic practice spans mu- sic, video, performance, costume design, and, of course, collage. Her mythology is spellbind- ing as you become acquainted with her strange characters and domain. Ghostly dolls, clowns, and animals such as bunnies, bears, and mice are all returning roles in her grand narrative. Weber’s imagination is refreshingly youthful; she is prolific but seemingly unencumbered. Driven by longing and romanticism, she delves deeply into her childhood to feed her production. Weber’s engagement with collage coincided with her career in the alternative rock scene, performing with The Party Boys and Perfect Me in the 80’s and afterwards making two solo albums: Woman with Bass (1994) and Cry for Happy (1996). She began her collage practice by creating a limited edition of 100 handmade collages, distributed on one side of her LP album covers. She says the experience was like a boot camp to understand collage. Since then, she has created album covers and promotional posters for many musical acts, most notably the cover for Sonic Youth’s A Thousand Leaves.
