Eagle Rock, CA:
Open Gate Theatre
featuring
Center for the Arts, Eagle Rock
Philip Gelb, one of the Bay Area creative music community's most staunch figures, is a rarity:Ê a shakuhachi (Japanese bamboo flute) player trained in that instrument's deep classical tradition who employs his woodwind of choice in the arena of free improvisation.Ê Having played with most of the Bay Area's improvised music luminaries and having established himself on the larger stage of improvised music, Gelb has become an international ambassador of free shakuhachi playing, drawing on the instrument's rich traditional voice and adding less conventional techniques and sounds to its vocabulary.Ê For this concert, Gelb will play collectively with one of his longest-term collaborators, pianist Dana Reason (now also a bandleader in her own right), and one of his frequent collaborators of recent years, local percussionist Alex Cline (who at this point needs no introduction).Ê Together they will manifest music of subtlety and intensity and will demonstrate a serious sensitivity to pure sound and its many possibilities.
Opening the concert will be the incomparable brass duo of trombonist Michael Vlatkovich and tuba player William Roper, two utterly unique voices in their own right and together a musical experience of considerable depth and character.Ê Vlatkovich and Roper in their own ways and with their own artistic spirits have individually contributed generously to the creative music community of this city.Ê Here they make music together alone.Ê Playing compositions by Vlatkovich which open up to provide material for improvisational exploration, the duo provides a rich musical experience that offers sophistication and charm in equal measure.Ê This concert celebrates the second CD release by the duo, another accessible yet uncompromising recording on the pfMENTUM label.Ê

Washington Musica Viva Spring 2006 Events
Dear Friends of Washington Musica Viva,
On Saturday April 22, 2006 at 7:30 pm, Washington Musica Viva will be back at BannerArts Studio in Kensington (4233C Howard Ave) with a typically eclectic and wonderful program. Yes, we know it has been too long since last time! We will dip into the Baroque with a rarely heard Sonata by Giovanni Platti performed on soprano saxophone by Rhonda Buckley, and Bach's astonishingly beautiful "Schlummert ein" sung by Gary Poster's deep warm voice. Ben Redwine will be back from Spain to provide delightful improvised clarinet solos on three "Duke" Ellington songs sung by Gary Poster, and maybe some sparkling gems by Polish composer Witold Lutoslawski. Poet Barbara Crooker, a favorite of ours (and of Garrison Keillor's), will return to BannerArts (last time was May 16, 1999) with new poems like this one:
One Song after Rumi
A cardinal, the very essence of red, stabs
the hedgerow with his piercing notes;
a chickadee adds three short beats,
part of the percussion section, and a white-
throated sparrow moves the melody along.
Last night, at a concert, crashing waves
of Prokofiev; later, the soft rain falling
steadily and a train whistle off in the distance.
And today, the sun, waiting for its cue,
comes out from the clouds for a short sweet
solo, then sits back down, rests between turns.
On the other side of the world, night's black
bass fiddle rosins its bow, draws it over
the strings, resonates with the breath
of sleepers, animal, vegetable, human.
All the world breathes in, breathes out.
It hums, it throbs, it improvises. So many voices.
Only one song.
Tickets are $20 at the door; (includes WMV's famous intermission!)

THURSDAY APRIL 27, 2006 8:00 PM
Thomas Buckner, baritone
Interpretations, the series featuring leading figures in contemporary music and multimedia, will continue on April 27th with a program featuring acclaimed baritone Thomas Buckner.Ê For over three decades Buckner has established himself at the forefront of new music, commissioning and performing the works of emerging and established composers. For his 17th annual concert of recently commissioned works, he will present: For Peace, for baritone and piano, by Mel Graves; Silence Is My Voice, for solo voice and miniature loudspeaker, by Matthias Kaul, to a text by Henri Michaux; Grass, for baritone and piano, by Somei Satoh, to a text by Walt Whitman; Amazing, for soprano, baritone, two percussionists, keyboard and trumpet, by Wadada Leo Smith to a text by Jeanne Lee; and Bodies of Music, for voice and electronics, by David Wessel. Joining Buckner will be Nina Eidsheim (soprano), Wadada Leo Smith (trumpet), Joseph Kubera (piano), Vicki Ray (piano), Gustavo Aguilar (percussion), David Johnson (percussion), Matthias Kaul (percussion), David Wessel (electronics), and Naoyaki Oguri, (Butoh dancer).
Thomas Buckner has dedicated himself to the world of new and improvised music as a performer and producer for more than 30 years. He has been instrumental in the creation of an extensive body of new works through his steadfast advocacy of living composers. In the past two decades, he has premiered more than 70 works written exclusively for him by some of the world's most adventurous composers, including Robert Ashley, Roscoe Mitchell, Alvin Lucier, Annea Lockwood, Bun-Ching Lam, Jerome Cooper, Somei Satoh, Tom Hamilton, Leroy Jenkins, Phill Niblock, and Wadada Leo Smith. He has been featured on over 40 recordings, including five solo albums; his latest, Contexts, has been released on the Mutable Music label. Recent activities include a tour of northern Germany with percussionist/composer Matthias Kaul; an appearance at the Santa Fe International Festival of Electro-acoustic Music (SFIFEM) performing works by Creshevsky, Lucier, Niblock and Kimura; and the West Coast premiere of Say You Have This Ball of Meaning by Alvin Singleton at the Santa Clara University New Music Festival.
This program is made possible in part with public support provided by the New York State Council on the Arts. Additional support is provided by the Mary Flagler Cary Charitable Trust.

In their U.S. debut, Jean Christophe Camps and Carole Rieussec present a
concert of detailed electroacoustics and post-musique concrete
improvisations -- using amplified objects, household items and
pre-recorded sounds.
Recent work has been inspired by travels in Mali, Guinea, Senegal and
throughout Central America. In their recorded projects, they build and
then break down travel stories, blurring memories and foiling narrative
expectations. Spin their fantastic "Des travailleurs de la nuit, ˆ l'amie
des objets" on Jerome Noetinger's Metamkine label.
Now based in Montblanc, Camps (b. Paris) and Rieussec (b. Tananarive,
Madagascar) both began to work in electroacoustic music in the late '80s.
They studied acousmatics in Lyon with Denis Dufour, but at different
times. Rieussec worked with Luc Ferrari from 1988-1995 in the studio La
Muse en Circuit.
In 1990, they ended up in the same group, Les Arenes du Vinyle, a Parisian
improv sextet. Jean-Christophe and Carole struck a professional and
personal relationship almost immediately and formed Kristoff K. Roll.
Collaborators include Xavier Charles, Catherine Jauniaux, Le Quan Ninh,
Daunik Lazro and Martin Tetreault.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Mediatopia.2 fresh!
Artists create art in cyberspace, but can you hang it on a wall?
Mediatopia.2 fresh! assembles an exciting mix of recent net-based work by a diverse group of neoteric artists, creatives and thinkers. Their fresh, networked interfaces look to a variety of means to utilize the Internet, both as creative medium and as a channel to share and distribute their output. The Internet, with its network functionality and potential for user interaction, is their creative playground: a form to manipulate and a means of social or political expression. Mediatopia.2 fresh! is a net-based opportunity for artists to gain exposure for their culture work. Mediatopia.2 fresh! is produced by Adhocarts.org, a non-profit media-arts organization. Lara Bank and Andrew Bucksbarg worked together to curate a program from recent work submitted internationally that uses the Internet as a playground, platform or paintbrush.
Jessica Ivan's Retrotype historically traces female representation in video games through an interface that allows the participant to personalize and question the object of their gaze. Do you live in East L.A. and long to live closer to celebrities in a gated community? Carlos Katastrofsky performs Neighborhood and Area Research for you, so you can discover who your IP address neighbors are in cyberspace. On the Internet, distance is collapsed as ideologues are brought closer together. Michael Takeo Magruder's
Together these disparate works signify the production, both singularly and collaboratively, of persons whose concerns go beyond the instance of capital and reach outward to the cultural center of what digital media can mean for human expression and communication. Their work is a mirror before us that traces both our success and failure: together and separate in the network. These words may wish to provide an overview or representation of their work, but fail to provide the one thing these artists considered as they created their work- your interaction. This interaction forms a means to destabilize the relation of the author or creator, bringing in the user as an active director or participant in the process.
Artist's work created for the Internet poses problems for persons, museums or galleries who would collect and display it. Internet Art is not easily installed in these traditional spaces, and although digital information does not degrade, the technology that expresses it is constantly changing and upgrading. Software evolves, computers and their operating systems change, as well as progressive modifications to the human-computer interface, making it difficult to collect and archive this kind of work. Net-based art is ephemeral under these circumstances.
Artists who create "net.art,' have another problem at hand as well. How do you create value for something that is distributed on a network and available to anyone with a computer and connection? Historically, most art, aside from live performance, is based upon its being a one-of-a-kind object that maintains or even gains value as a collected piece. This makes raising funds for or selling this work a difficult proposition. Rachel Greene, author of Internet Art, writes, "Internet Art has less to do with objects of social prestige, and little, at least currently, to do with the cosmopolitan art businesses that thrive in New York, Cologne, London and other culture capitals.' These limitations have given artists who work with the Internet a kind of freedom and revelry of exploration, as well as a particular tool for cultural and institutional critique. Many artists see the Internet as a cause to really challenge fundamental elements of humanity: identity, methods of communication, technology, politics and the institution. These artists understand that people expanded by the Internet all over the world, are brought together in cyberspace.
The Internet was launched in 1989 by the British scientist Tim Berners-Lee. As the use of the Internet grew, so did a community of artists who began to utilize it as a creative medium by the mid 1990s. Some of the early practitioners of Internet Art were Post-Communist East Europeans and organizations like the Ljudmila Media Center in Slovenia, supported by George Soros's Open Society Institute. Much of the practice of Internet Art also saw support in media arts festivals in Europe during this time. Internet Art has grown over the years as the Internet has seen increased use and is now getting more recognition from the traditional formats of museums and galleries.
Artists will continue to participate in the social uses of new technology. They will take part in future network technologies and cultures, where the Internet will be augmented by shared virtual space. People on the network will come together in synthetic worlds to create, communicate and recreate. This is already occurring in online multi-player games and environments like Second Life (http://secondlife.com), which include their own economies. Objects and land can be bought and sold and complex social transactions take place in these ephemeral, digital realms that exist on servers. Some artists, such as Chris Burke, are hacking online multi-user games for other purposes, such as a talk show in game space (http://www.thisspartanlife.com).
Artists have a long history of socially relevant communication from within the culture they are steeped. Mediatopia.net and its supporting organization, Adhocarts, offer perspective to this process in the continually shifting phenomena of cyberspace. Mediatopia.net is produced by Adhocarts (http://adhocarts.org), which sponsors a variety of expressions that fall on the lines of interconnecting disciplines, theories, technologies and cultures. Adhocarts.org is a non-profit collaboration supporting arts and culture by producing avenues for creative expression and thought both online and off. Adhocarts.org was founded in 2000 and exists as a catalyst for work that uses technology and hypermedia, such as net.art, installation, digital video, writing and live art.
We still believe in net-based culture. Mediatopia.net

The Invisible Guy
is online now!
Dear Friends, Colleagues, and Fellow Cyber-Surfers:
This is to let you know that my latest and current project, The Invisible Guy, is now officially online. Over three years in the making (and still in progress), it consists of lots and lots of music - surf tunes, humorous songs, a couple of tangos, and some demented anachronistic pop stylings not easy to describe - and for every number a scene (delivered in prose, I'm afraid; no flash cartoons or videos. You have to enjoy a good read).
These will be uploaded every Friday for the next 40 to 50 weeks, much like a serial novel. So to enjoy the full ride you'll have to keep coming back. It's cumulative though; once up there, every episode will be permanently available and accessible any time.
You are invited to get your first glimpse of The Invisible Guy right now at the above URL. Listen to the theme song, meet the gorgeous but wicked Zipper Ripper, and learn a bit of trivia.
This is a free online entertainment from the Leisure Planet.
(By the way, view it in Netscape if you can. Some stuff doesn't look right otherwise, and I'm not sure why.)

Viralnet is a productive nexus: critique, archive, art space and journal.
It intends to raise questions and provoke assumptions about culture,
media, politics and the arts.
Working with international social critics, media theorists, writers,
curators and artists, it is an online space that will grow and mutate as
it delivers material for these post-digital, post-democratic times. As
human experience becomes more mediated, we will highlight alternative
pathways into future thought and art making.
Produced by the Center for Integrated Media and the MFA Writing Program at

and interviews with a view toward articulating new concepts and working
strategies developed by contemporary intermedia artists, writers and
theorists. Tom Leeser, Director of the Center for Integrated Media,
says Viralnet is set up to look at digital media in relation to
culture, politics and the arts. The computer and the Internet have
expanded far beyond the boundaries of an exclusive digital domain,
allowing a transformation from novelty to the familiar," he says. "As with
radio at the beginning of the 20th century, digital technology has entered
a state of flux, going from an object of privilege to a common and
everyday ubiquitous appliance. This will have creative, social and
political ramifications that we are only beginning to
experience and understand."
Some of the contributors to this release of Viralnet include; social
critic and author, Norman Klein, new media theorist and author, Lisa
Nakamura, Kitchen curator and author, Christina Yang, artists, Perry
Hoberman and Sara Roberts.

New American Radio Website Project
New American Radio
New Radio and Performing Arts, Inc. is pleased to announce its
redesigned, updated and expanded NEW AMERICAN RADIO (NAR) website that
includes full-length radio art programs by American and European
artists. Currently available are works by Terry Allen, Jacki Apple,
Diamanda Galas, Sheila Davies, Suzan-Lori Parks, Gregory Whitehead and
others. Additional programs will be added to the site in the coming months.
A weekly series distributed to public radio stations nationwide from
1987-1998, NEW AMERICAN RADIO includes over 300 original works
commissioned from such artists as Pauline Oliveros, Rachel Rosenthal,
Christian Marclay, Alvin Curran, and Carl Hancock Rux. During its 15
years of broadcast life, NAR became known-nationally and
internationally as the principal source of radio experimentation in
America, ranking with such high-profile international programs as ABC
Australia's The Listening Room. Its works, which won numerous prizes
in competitions worldwide, were aired throughout North America, Europe
and Australia. Although now off-air, NAR enjoys an active afterlife on
the Internet, where full-length programs, audio excerpts, scripts and
other artist writings are available.
An amazing cultural mirror of its time, both in regard to the issues it
dealt with and the techniques and strategies used by its artists, NEW
AMERICAN RADIO is also being archived in the World Music Archive at
Wesleyan University, CT, where it will be accessible both on location
and on-line to students, educators, artists, scholars, and the general
public. The archive is made possible by grants from the National
Endowment for the Arts.

Intercontinental spontaneous jam session
New artwork by Icelandic artist Pall Thayer, the Intercontinental
spontaneous jam session is now open and accessible at
www.this.is/pallit/isjs
This piece explores abstract imagery created via a musical interface to
combine the inherently abstract qualities of music with randomness and
multi-user interactivity to create a truly abstract image that contains
no references to the physical world.

"Re: Duchamp Traveling Exhibition"
La Biennale di Venezia:
49th International Exhibition of Art--
Concomitant Exhibitions
http://www.nyartsmagazine.com/duchamp
"The Re: Duchamp Travelling Exhibition is a project that has been evolving
over time. It has traveled to various cities in Germany, Poland, Chile and
Israel, as well as New York City. It is the ongoing work of Abraham Lubelski,
and incorporates the work of over 250 other artists, including Nam June Paik,
Dennis Oppenheim, Carl Andre, Ilya and Emilia Kabakov, Taylor Mead, Larry
Weiner, David Humphrey, Inka Essenhigh....
The Re: Duchamp Travelling Exhibition at the 49th Venice Biennale* is an
installation of clotheslines from which artwork is hung.** The idea for this
installation is derived from Marcel Duchamp's infamous benefit exhibition
organized on the Premises of the Coordinating Council of French Relief
Societies, 451 Madison Avenue, New York, October 14th - November 7th, 1942,
in which he criss-crossed the entire gallery with one mile of string. This
entanglement, which the public had to negotiate when they came to view the
art, stood as a metaphor for the difficulties encountered in attempting to
understand modern art.
The current exhibition uses this Duchampian metaphor to point to connectivity
as much as any difficulty that might hinder an appreciation of art in the
digital age---art whose nature may be partially or completely ephemeral,
time-based, or immaterial, and which might be conveyed digitally or housed
virtually. Re: Duchamp celebrates the process of visual sampling in a world
where the line between original and copy has been blurred, and the medium is
the readymade.
** Participating artists were asked to e-mail their submissions as digital
files. These were printed out, placed in plastic sleeves and brought to
Venice for installation. Hung from criss-crossing lengths of string at the
Church of S. Maria Ausiliatrice, they resemble so many Tibetan prayer flags,
the wind and the Web conveying and disseminating their messages.
* At the 49th Venice Biennale, the Re: Duchamp Travelling Exhibition forms
part of the Markers Project, which involves organizations in Venice including
the Peggy Gugghenheim Collection, the Biennale Arti Visive, and the
Municipality of Venice itself."

Chisel, cut, mix, set in spaceŠSound has the power of the cinema and is lighter
Among the prizes awarded for acoustic creation, the Phonurgia Nova competition has, since 1986, occupied a special place by virtue of its recognition of artists whose work exploits sound as a medium for expressing the real and the imaginary. In 2003, 150 productions from 19 different countries were entered in the prize.
This year's competition will distinguish authors whose work manifests a keen sense of sound and listening as means of expression, on two areas :
RADIO ARTS will privilige all forms of inventive radiophonic creation: documentary,
fiction, essays, interviews, radio mix, Hšrspiel, experimental forms etc.
NEW MEDIAS awards will go to sound installations or sonic works which have been specially created for "new media" to bring new experiences in sound art to listeners - mobile phone, audioblog, site exploring the acoustic dimensions of the net.
In each category the jury will deliberate on two types of work:

Are you interested in performing on the Meridian Music series?
We welcome your interest and want you to have a sense of what we're seeking for this series. The space is a wonderful, intimate venue, a rectangular gallery space, deeply windowed at one end, hardwood floored, 14 1/2 feet by 30 feet with a 10 1/2 foot ceiling. We can seat a maximum of 50 people. We're on the second floor of a building in downtown San Francisco, generally quiet, but with some street sounds audible. There is not a piano in the space. The audience usually sits on comfortable folding chairs. Because it is an active, vibrant art gallery, the music always occurs in relation to the current exhibition. So, we are interested in music that works well in this resonant space.
Each concert is professionally recorded by Michael Zelner of Zoka Productions. With this opportunity, those selected will also share their unique musical perspective with a group of about 15 low-income, high school aged, interns in a one-hour workshop.
We invite proposals from composer/performers for solo or very small ensemble performances that take into account the size of the room. Quiet, "lower case" music works well here, so do sonically saturating pieces. It's a small space, and we respect the ears of our audiences and we want performers who understand that. We host a wide range of styles and approaches, including free improv, structured improv, minimalism, new (and old) complexity, as well as streams from jazz, "concert" music, art music from all world cultures, experimental music, and performance art. We hope to present a wide variety of these sorts of art music, and we need your proposals to help us to do that.
Your proposal needs to let us know what you wish to perform and how you sense your work fitting into the Meridian Music series. Just a few lines of text are fine; we're not after pages of information. You're also very welcome to enter a conversation with us about what you'd like to do. We're working artists and musicians and educators and we always enjoy talking with others in these fields. We want your experience with us to benefit you as well as us and that is why we look thoughtfully for good matches of performer and space.
We look forward to hearing from you!
Sincerely, Tom

There is a new improvising space in the web at www.auracle.org
It's a webspace where everyone can improvise together, the only thing
you'd need to participate is internet access, a microphone (the
built-in mic of your computer is fully sufficient) and just your
voice or anything else that makes a sound. The idea is to provide an
easily accessable worldwide improvising space that anyone, musician
or non-musician, can easily handle and make music with it.
We over here in Stutgart are promoting this project from Saturday
25.9. until Friday, 1.10. every day from 10 a.m. to 7 p.m. central
eurpoean time, and it would be great if as many people as possible
would join us in this time and improvise together.
the project was initiated by Max Neuhaus, realised by Shekar
Ramakrishnan, Kristjan Varnik, Jason Freeman and others, and you can
find more information on the website www.auracle.org
Hope to meet all of you there
i am a co-founder and co-director of collective: unconscious, an artist-run multi media art space and production facility that has just moved into nyc/usa/tribeca, to hopefully engage in the heretofore rather obscure task of the de-gentrification of a neighborhood in new york city.
at this point, the best way that many of the prolific members of the experimental art/media/theater community can help us is through doing a show/event at collective: unconscious. our carrying expenses are 7000 dollars a month, and we need to have a full schedule of weird, strange, shocking, experimental, original stuff going on in our space to keep us from economically crashing and burning in short order
we have karen finley www.karenfinley.org doing a run of shows in september and october, which means sizable audiences to glean for a whole slew of open 10pm slots.
a partial and by no means exhaustive pitch for our new facility:
the only space of its kind left in lower manhattan, in a sea of starbucked duane readed name branded cultural garbage, a barnacle of freakdom that you can help keep alive in the trying months ahead
come by any of our bookings meetings any sunday at 6pm at 279 church st., nyc, usa, and/or email scheduling@weird.org. speak to gecko or myself. we are inviting both local artists and international artists seeking to do shows/events in new york city at low cost. we want engaging original work that may not be as established as the work presented by other experimental art spaces in nyc such as the kitchen or ps122. if you don't know about our space and you are interested in booking an event with us, check out our website www.weird.org

RAM-Radioartemobile and Nomads & Residents
A collection and a traveling archive of audio-artworks, a database on the Internet, and a center for different ways of listening
Proposal open to all artists who work with sound
Radioartemobile (RAM) and Nomads & Residents (N&R) kickoff an audio-artwork database.
All artists who have worked or are working with sound are invited to send an artwork on audio CD, DVD, or on a vinyl record. The RAM headquarters in Rome, via Conte Verde 15, will function as a gathering and a listening point and as an archive for all materials received. It will be open to public. Artworks will be gradually posted in the section "database" of the Radio website www.radioartemobile.it.
RAM is also the first location of a traveling archive initiated by Nomads & Residents. The second public presentation will be in San Francisco, at Southern Exposure, in the spring of 2005.
GUIDELINES FOR SUBMITTING AUDIO-WORKS
- the sender can mention any requirement needed to listen to the audio-work (type of loudspeakers, stereo system, headphones, etc.). These indications will be taken into consideration each time RAM would chose the piece for installing it, within the technical and logistic features available;
Radioartemobile and Nomads & Residents will take the best care of the entered works, but cannot take liability for accidental damage, loss or theft. For this reason we suggest to send two copies of each material. RAM and N&R will
archive all sound works that fit the above mentioned requirements and will present them to the public.
Lorenzo Benedetti, Riccardo Giagni and Cesare Pietroiusti will listen to all the entries and will gradually post them in the web-site database. In turn-to the discretion of the curators- some artworks will be displayed in the RAM headquarters in Rome with the aim of offering the public also the possibility to explore different ways of listening to audio-works. The database will gradually increase the number of contributions and will be presented to the public at regular appointments. The first public presentation is scheduled for mid October 2004.
Deadline for first submission is September 1, 2004.
Please send the material to:

experimental music events, and an annual end-of-summer festival planned.
Dangerous Curve is looking for performance artists and experimental
musicians for their monthly Performance Art and Experimental Music
Nights. We will give preference to work that is, in the words of Jacki
Apple, radical content in radical form. We want work that pushes
the envelope, not pure dance, singing, or theatre.
Submission format: DVDs/CDs/URLs preferred. We can handle videotapes
and slides, but not to your best advantage. For performance art, a
written description may even suffice; musicians must send samples.

The New York Arts Recovery Fund will survey NYC artists to find out
if they need job retraining in the areas of teaching, social work,
and some construction-related trades as well as arts organizations to
see if they have laid workers off. Artists will be eligible for the
Consortium for Worker Education's job retraining program for NYC
artists whose economic base has been impacted by the disaster.
Additionally, it is possible that CWE will provide, with NYFA's help,
partial wage subsidies to nonprofit arts organizations that laid
workers off or cut back their pay or hours as a result of September
11.
ORGANISM: MAKING ART WITH LIVING SYSTEMS
organism is a new mailing list for people interested in art that
involves living systems. discussion topics on organism include
technical, practical, aesthetic, and ethical issues.
subscribe to the organism mailing list:
http://music.columbia.edu/organism/
the idea of making art with living systems is not new; you might even
consider a topiary garden or a goldfish pond to be biological art. what
is new is the degree of control over biological systems and materials
contemporary technology offers us.
some artists making biologically-based art:
Eduardo Kac has made several transgenic artworks, including GFP Bunny,
a genetically engineered fluorescent rabbit.
Damien Hirst's A Thousand Years involves a cycle of maggots eating a cow
head.
Yukinori Yanagi uses ant farms in some of his work.
Edgar Lissel's Bakterium is photographic images rendered in
light-sensitive bacteria.
Richard Reames is an arborsculptor who makes extreme trees.
douglas repetto (that's me!) has a number of pieces, like How to Annoy a
Plant, that involve plants and time-lapse photography.

Salvatore Sciarrino: Pagine & Canzoniere da Scarlatti
The artistry of the renowned Italian composer Salvatore Sciarrino and the "gentle, reedy beauty" (New York Times) of the PRISM Quartet meet in this exploration of elaborazioni of classical and jazz icons. Sciarrino, following in the tradition of contemporary Italian composers who were also scholarly devotees of western composition, stunningly adapts music by Gesualdo, Bach, Scarlatti, Mozart, Gershwin, and Cole Porter.

March 30 Ð April 1, 2006
Proposals for new, original, interdisciplinary works will be accepted
for a "Commissioned" category. Works must be created by a team
consisting of two or more members, and must combine two or more areas
of creative expression and contain a major technology component.
Proposals will be accepted for performances, concerts, showings or
installations; completed works will be presented during the symposium.
Proposals must include detailed technical and production requirements,
and a proposed budget. Limit of one proposal per team. The piece must
not have been previously published, performed or exhibited. Awards
will be granted at the discretion of the Center. Submissions not
accepted for the commissioned category will also be reviewed for the
general submissions category. Accepted commissions will be awarded a
stipend of $3000 and a residency at Connecticut College between March
27 and April 1 that includes:
- performance or installation of the accepted work
- workshops with students
- attendance at the symposium
- presentation at the symposium
A two-page extended abstract or complete paper, including technical
requirements, must be submitted by email or mail. Upon acceptance,
revised papers must be submitted electronically by January 31, 2006 as
a PDF. Complete technical requirements for presentation must be
included. Papers will be published by the Center in the symposium
proceedings. All rights will remain with the author. Papers will be
selected for twenty-minute presentations as part of the daily schedule
of speakers. Papers may be grouped by the Center in a panel discussion
format.
Proposals for panel discussions are encouraged. Proposals should
include names of prospective panelists and topic, which should address
the general areas of the symposium. Papers may be grouped by the
Center in a panel discussion format.
In addition to academic and theoretical papers, submissions of
technology-based or technology-oriented creative works are encouraged.
Maximum one proposal per person or team, and we reserve the right not
to review multiple pieces in a single submission. All submissions must
be accompanied by a one-page description/abstract for presentation at
the symposium about the work, a list of complete technical needs,
biography and contact information. See specific categories for
additional requirements. All presenters and artists are encouraged to
speak about their work at the symposium. Symposium registration will be
required for all symposium attendees.
MUSIC COMPOSITIONS
Music submissions (composition, performance, theory, interactivity,
signal processing and music understanding) are encouraged. Works for
instruments, digital media, CD or interactive compositions are also
being solicited for "tape only" concerts or live performance. Works
should not exceed 15 minutes in length and should be submitted with
accompanying score, where appropriate. Music must be submitted on CD
for review, with accompanying scores as required. Musicians, dancers
and actors may be available for live performance pieces. All
submissions must be accompanied by a one page description/abstract for
presentation at the symposium about the work. Complete technical and
performance requirements must be included.
Computer-generated or computer-aided dance compositions and theater
works are being solicited for live demonstrations or for videotaped
presentations. Specially produced dance or theater videos are of
particular interest as opposed to concert tapes or other archival uses
of video. Also of interest are proposals for workshops, demonstrations
of software for dance or theater notation, choreographic analysis,
interactive studies and/or multi-media studies of performance in dance
and theater. Performances may be accepted, but will be limited by
technical needs and financial considerations. All submissions should be
accompanied by a web site, CD, DVD or VHS, and one page
description/abstract for presentation at the symposium about the work,
biography, contact details, and complete technical needs and spatial
requirements.

Creativity Courses Spring/Summer 06
Founded in 1993, the Creativity Workshop is dedicated to teaching people about their creativity and how to use it in all aspects of life, work, and creative expression. The Creativity Workshop helps people believe in and develop their imagination through using a unique series of exercises in memoir, creative writing, visual arts, sense perception, brainstorming, and storytelling. In a non-competitive, nurturing atmosphere, our workshops help participants develop creative skills, expanded sense perception, innovative problem solving, inspired brainstorming, and new ways of looking at life as exciting and transformative. The price of the New York workshop is $650, tuition only. Our European workshop prices start at $1,650, including tuition and 9 nights accommodations. The only requirements for the Creativity Workshop are curiosity about the creative process and a sense of playfulness.
