Hope to see ya soon - aaron ----------[ Quiet American presents at 964 Natoma ]-------------------- Field Effects 9: the rest of the west Friday, February 28th Doors 8pm 964 Natoma, San Francisco, CA (USA) $6-10 requested sliding donation, no one turned away for lack of funds. ----> Event Description <---------------------------------------------- The world makes music, remember to listen. Field Effects 9 offers a night of field recording-based sound art. The ninth in a series of concerts showcasing the use of found materials and field recordings in media art, Field Effects 9 features a rare visit by west coast artists working with field recordings far far beyond our thriving Bay Area scene. Come out for an infusion of fresh perspectives... from the rest of the west! Field Effects 9 features work by: climax golden twins (seattle) 'Climax Golden Twins have released CDs and records, collaborated with visual artists to create installations in galleries and museums, and composed music for dance and film scores including the USA Films-produced horror film Session 9 (What! You.ve never seen Session 9! It had that guy in it. The one who later turned up on that show. And the other guy, the one with the hair. What an odd beast Hollywood is. The film must have been released in theatres for a good twenty minutes before retiring ignominiously to video -- though an excellent soundtrack was released on Milan International...). In 1994 CGT started the vanity record label Fire Breathing Turtle, with which we have released our own music, Jesse Paul Miller.s Secret Records and the ongoing Fire Breathing Turtle Victrola Favorites, devoted to music recorded directly from a collection of early wind up phonographs. Strange people and strange sounds come and go in both composed and improvisatory settings in our music. We are endlessly interested with the ways sound can be reproduced, textured, manipulated and transformed. Ancient acoustic machines, contemporary digital equipment, instrumentation, field and ambiance recordings, found sounds, electronics, punk rock wipeouts: they all work together in our music. The most recent Climax Golden Twins CD is entitled Lovely and was released by Anomalous Records in October 2002. For this show we will be working with a recent slew of found and created sounds, mixed with field recordings and subtle electronics.' Bits of reviews: 'Masters of found sound montage and oblique acoustic beauty...' 'CGT...have garnished international acclaim for their deeply introspective soundscapes and noise explorations.' 'If you ever wondered what AMM might sound like if they lightened up and tried to get a sense of humor, this might be the result.' 'Minimalist structural techniques are used to build short, quickly shifting pieces, with their own music as well as a wide range of other sounds, voices, musics, noises. Trance, yeah, but with sudden awakenings, as well as substantial space... This is dream music, and fortunately, they leave the blanks for us to fill in (or not).' 'Accelerated vocal loops challenge cartoony action effects, wailing midget sirens, schizophrenic choruses of miniature cyborgs, etc... Absolutely brilliant.' http://www.anomalousrecords.com http://www.climaxgoldentwins.com marcos fernandes (san diego) Born in Yokohama, Japan, percussionist/improviser/phonographer Marcos Fernandes has long been active in the San Diego music scene as performer, producer and promoter. He is a founding member of the Trummerflora collective, dedicated to the experimental and improvisational art scene in Southern California. Fernandes has performed in Japan, Hong Kong, Mexico and the US. He has performed and/or recorded with fellow improvisers Eric Glick Rieman, George Lewis, Lj Quan Ninh, Lisle Ellis, Mike Keneally as well as with the Trummerflora collective, Donkey, Fussible, Perfektomat, Wormhole and Ultra 7. Fernandes runs the artist-based independent label Accretions, featuring some of today's more innovative experimentalists. The catalogue boasts over two dozen titles, many of which he produced, featuring artists such as Fred Frith, Barre Philips, Scott Fields to name just a few. Fernandes' recordings appear on Accretions, Bake/Staalplat, Pan Handler, Phonography.org, and World Records. For Field Effects 9, Fernandes will present a structured improvisation utilizing field recordings, samplers and processors. http://www.accretions.com http://www.trummerflora.com marcelo radulovich (san diego) Marcelo Radulovich is a multimedia artist whose main interests revolve around composition/production in audio and visual arts. His latest experiment is the development of sounds, words, visuals, and live performance for and about the legend of Titicacaman. For Field Effects 9, Radulovich will present an evolving work titled Thumb. Of the piece, Philip Sherburne wrote in The Wire, '[It is] a fluid and impressionistic ambient composition rich with environmental overtones. The dense swirl of sound approximates a dream that yields only clues with no referent: swirling water, footsteps, hives of voices, tangles of bells. Pendant harmonics fold in upon themselves, collapsing into blackhole drones or metallic clatter....Thumb comes over like a fantastic travelogue, allusive - and elusive....' The piece is described at EarthEar.com thusly: 'One of the most engaging releases to emerge from the deep ambient quarter, this disc dives into a sonic realm that is at once spooky and embracing. It's composed entirely of field recordings, from both nature and urban settings, but what sets it apart is Radulovich's sure hand in layering and editing. Much like Eric La Casa, there's an emotional resonance here that speaks to the unconscious; in addition, there are just enough melodic and rhythmic elements to color and drive the piece, without imposing themselves.' http://www.titicacaman.com/ http://www.marceloradulovich.com/ http://www.phonography.org/ The Field Effects series showcases artists who are interested in framing the hidden beauty of the everyday world: beauty on the surface, awaiting our attention. Beauty that must be delicately extracted. And beauty in potential, awaiting juxtaposition, collage, repetition and mutilation. Seating mostly on futons to encourage comfortable deep listening and viewing. Hopefully we'll still be borrowing Blasthaus's great beanbags (thanks Blasthaus!). Depending on weather, hot or cold drinks will be available on a donation-based honor system. Hopefully someone will make cookies. ----> Venue Info <---------------------------------------------------- 964 Natoma San Francisco, CA, USA Between Mission and Howard, 10th and 11th street, south of market.
