So rad. At the current Venice Biennale.
I’ll be digging through my collection of insudtrial/ educational films and projecting bits and pieces in between (& perhaps on top of) bands.
It’s all ages and alcohol free; I think I will be bringing baked goods. Wholesome! This whole show is going to be full of droney, loopy, echoey, poppy noisy goodness. Hedia makes me feel all drab n’ ordinary with my cello by rocking the Viola da Gamba- so great!
I took some (handheld) pics of my recent workprinted footage right off the ole Steenbeck. I can’t help but love the vignetting…
The Baseline Group’s Chickenshack Village project will be opening at the BMOCA this Friday, September 25 from 6:30 to 8 pm. I filmed the initial build last semester on super-8, and that documentation will be continuously playing (on video) during the exhibit- above and below are a couple of stills. On Saturday September 26 at 10 am BMOCA wil also host the Rural Art/Urban Agriculture Symposium in conjunction with the exhibit.
I play thee singing saw in Bongo Fury; when we last played with Bostonians Prince Rama of Ayodhya they were totally amazing!
I’ve just returned from a trip to the Açores, Portugal, filming sites on the islands related to my family’s history, landscapes remembered and misremembered from stories about “the old country” I grew up hearing. Hot tip: security at the Lisbon airport ain’t about to hand check your film unless you can show them a letter from INAC (Instituto Nacional de Aviação Civil), a fact that I’d have figured out earlier if my Portuguese was a bit better.
This project should debut November 30 at a graduate student showcase as part of the First Person Cinema series; it was supported by a Beverly Sears grant from the CU Boulder Graduate School.
I’m playing cello with the Slight Harp orchestra, performing Terry Riley’s “In C.” We’re opening for Dan Deacon at the Bluebird Theater. I’ve been wanting to play this piece for a while, and am very excited about the context/ collaborators!
I’ve been pretty disappointed that remnants of railroads once traveling from Boulder deep into the mountains are gone for the most part without a trace (see Switzerland Trail post). So I was quite excited recently to find, via a bike ride filming adventure down Valmont, this lot belonging to the Boulder County Railway Historical Society, offering up a bit of a connection to long gone lines.
…have now been added to the Zayante Spoils page. Also on that “other” social networking website thing.
