recordings have received critical acclaim in many national jazz
publications (Down Beat, Jazz Times, 5/4, Cadence, Modern Saxophone,
All About Jazz, The Los Angeles Times, etc.). The San Francisco Bay
Guardian recently awarded Greenlief the coveted Goldie 2000 Local
Talent Discovery Award in music. Since 1986, Greenlief has performed
internationally as a sideman and as a leader in a variety of
settings. He was featured at the 1st Annual John Coltrane Festival in
Los Angeles, CA. In addition to club dates across North America, the

production was featured on MTV. Greenlief's newest projects include
Music for Rilke's Duino Elegies, (co-commissioned by the Portland New
Music Guild & Meet the Composer Grants) set for wind trio; and Beauty
is a Rare Ticket That Exploded, a new approach to the music of
Ornette Coleman, where the composer utilizes the musical equivalent
to the "cut up" literary techniques of William S. Burroughs. These

HOT WIRED LIVE ART 2 - AIRWAVES
A live worklab project used to devise networked environments through the
process of collective experimentation.
August 18 - September 2, 2001
The Banff Centre for the Arts, Banff, Canada
HWLA (Hot Wired Live Art) is an artist worklab model that uses the live
environment of the lab to create social network and performance prototypes
from a diverse mix of technical and non-technical materials and activities.
The HWLA network is an international and interdisciplinary group of
artists, technologists and researchers with a combined range of skills and
technical expertise in electronics, streaming media, sensors, physical
(social) space design, wireless technology, live video and audio
processing, software programming, telepresence, dance, theatre, film and
video art. The aim of the worklab is to connect or network these materials
and artists together to create live collaborative performance scenarios
that use technology, but are not about the technology itself.
For two weeks 11 artists from Canada and different parts of Europe will set
up the second HWLA international worklab (HWLA2 - Airwaves) at The Banff
Centre for the Arts. The first HWLA worklab, initiated by Amanda Steggell
and Per Platou of Motherboard and in collaboration with the Bergen Centre
for Electronic Art (BEK) took place from Jan 4 - 16, 2000 in Bergen,
Norway. HWLA 2 - Airwaves will tap into a diverse pool of knowledge
provided by the artists involved with a focus on non-screen based
interfaces and/or situations, being cable free, the lab as a social space,
networked and live systems, how we define networks and explore meeting
spaces including the physical and the virtual. By setting up the HWLA
creative worklab and through the process of collective play, we research
the social and artistic applications of these technologies while generating
a discourse around these issues.
Platforms like KeyStroke, Nato 0+55, Max, QuickTime and RealVideo
streaming, iListen, BigEye, Image/ine and vns will be used with physical
materials and props, pdas, wireless video transmitters, sensors, a wireless
LAN, servo motors, syncronized swimming and tai chi.
The HWLA2 website (http://beagle.waag.org/~hwla2) will function during the
worklab as a live lab space with real-time schedule updates, comments by
the participants, and documentation by Scott delaHunta.
We will be periodically streaming out and posting live video and audio
packets during the lab. The group will also be presenting at The Human
Generosity conference, August 26-28 at The Banff Centre.
Please watch for upcoming announcements of these events.

"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."

Friday, August 17
FLOOD is a performance/installation that incorporates a live audio/video mix
in a site-specific, immersive environment. A feedback loop is created using
streaming media technology that explores the impact of information
compression. The behavior of the stream emerges over time, transforming the
media into a malleable, liquid state that the performers can freely
improvise with. Layering personal, original and archival material into the
streaming loop, a recursive process that directly parallels our experience
of memory unfolds, mirroring the porosity of human experience.

Where: Highways Performance Space
Cost: $15
Reservations: 310/315-1459
Pronounced extinct and long given up for dead, this obscure scion of the
'80s SoCal performance scene (a.k.a. eccentric and mercurial entertainer,
Jerry the PriestØfounder and artistic director of the Humility Incorporated theater company)
staggers back from a decade and a half of transcontinental annihilation to premiere his one-man
soap opera, 'Belching From the Vault.' Consisting of musical and textual material compiled over
20 years of snatching poverty from the jaws of opulence, this ecclectic evening features members
of Slowrider, The MiGs and legendary clubwreckers, 'The Commandos of Humilation,' reunited for
the first time in 16 years and guaranteed to rock you and your sensation-hungry friends into
a raw and celebratory coma!
Reservations highly recommended
"It's flame at a low ebb not so long ago, performance art in Los Angeles*
is roaring back to life, thanks especially to the ministrations of Jerry the Priest*"
Peter FrankØLA Weekly
"Wildly Theatrical. Anything but Saintly."
Randy LewisØLA Times
Jerome Dunn (Jerry the Priest) began presenting text-based work in the galleries and
nightclubs of greater Los Angeles in November of 1984. His music/theater ensemble,
'The Commandos of Humiliation,' became 'Humility Incorporated' in 1987, and hasperformed
in various incarnations throughout the US, most recently in ASK Theater Projects' Common

producer and director on a number of collaborative, evening-length projects in the L.A.,
Boston and Denver areas, has worked with such artists as Allen Ginsberg, Jean-Claude van Italie,
Anne Bogart and Joe Goode, and has studied and worked abroad at length in South Asia and
the Near East. Recent activities include the Lard Asylum Variety Hour and the Last Chance

Bickley and Livingston traveling with a suitcase of music through
time and place, working with traditional and new musics for cello and
recorder
(atlases and triptiks provided)
recorders, cellos, voices, gestures, found sounds, relocated sound
trek across frozen tundra, breathe thin mountain air, hear desert
wind whistle, monks chant in the distance, crystal notes echo in the
catacombs
repertory from medieval Europe, present-day China, 17th century
Japan, 21st century America woven into a texture of polymusical
complexity

Composer/performer/recorder player Tom Bickley experiences
improvising and composing as ways of listening. He moved to the Bay
Area after enjoying a composer residency at the Center for
Contemporary Music at Mills College in the Fall of 2000. His degrees
are in music, liturgy and information science. He is certified by
Pauline Oliveros to teach the meditative improv techniques of Deep
Listening. He is a founding member of various new music ensembles
including Gray Code, Gusty Winds May Exist (with Nancy Beckman), and
tonamatt and has performed with Pauline Oliveros, Anne LeBaron, the
Scratch Orchestra and others. He leads the Cornelius Cardew Choir
performing large-scale new music choral works. He has received
support from Meet the Composer, the Pauline Oliveros Foundation, and
the Meredith Foundation. For more information, see

Cellist Hugh Livingston performs contemporary music, exploring new
areas of electro-acoustic music, adaptation of Asian musics to the
Western practice, and frontiers of cello technique. Hugh received a
DMA in twentieth-century cello performance practice from the
University of California-San Diego, having completed his MFA at the
California Institute of the Arts. Hugh Livingston graduated cum laude
from Yale College in 1990 with a BA in music, the recipient of the
Bach Society Prize for excellence in musicianship and contribution to
musical life at Yale. Hugh collaborates with many visual artists and
is developing the sound of imaginary languages. All this and more at
