SUMMARY:Whale Song: A Workshop
DESCRIPTION:“The greatest amount of change appears when singing is most pervasive and the effort of each singer is most intense.”\n— Katy Payne \nSince they were first recorded by hydrophones in the late 1960s\, the haunting songs of humpback whales have been objects of human inquiry. These “long\, complexly organized patterns of sounds\,” which include\, “the highest and lowest frequencies that humans can hear\,” are shared between whales\, and sung seasonally\, with differences arising as the songs repeat over time. \nWe do not know precisely why the whales sing. But as Katy Payne\, an acoustic biologist and preeminent scholar of humpback whale song\, observed in 1985\, “we have not yet been able to discover any ‘leaders’…. [It is] as though decisions on how the song should change were made democratically.” \nCo-led by vocalist\, composer\, and cantor Daniela Gesundheit and media scholar Sarah Kessler\, this workshop will facilitate an environment within which a primary experience of the compositional techniques and structures at play in humpback whale song can emerge. Together\, we will employ leaderless collaboration and experimentation to examine and illuminate the vocalizations of the world’s largest broadcasting mammals\, and to see what we might discover about group identity\, distance\, competition\, innovation\, and empathy in the process. \nAfter a presentation and discussion of the key insights uncovered by Katy Payne’s groundbreaking research\, we will put our own voices to work\, apprenticing ourselves to the songs of these masterful composers. All voices welcome. \nWhile this event is free to attend\, space is limited: email for RSVP: info@humanresourcesla.com

SUMMARY:Perpetual Drone
DESCRIPTION:This night is an official benefit for Maps.org to help raise awareness and money for their efforts to help make psychedelic assisted therapy a legal treatment option in America\, this is something they have made great strides towards completing and has garnered lots of support worldwide. All the performers\, Artists and organizers are donating their time and talents. 100% of the proceeds from ticket sales go directly to Maps.org who will have some speakers at the events. \nThe Event will start 7pm Saturday November 17th and will end at noon on Sunday November 18th. \nHuman Resources can offer almost complete isolation from the outside world and it has lots of floor space to accommodate people lying down so it is the ideal venue in Los Angeles for this kind of event. \nThe Theme of the night takes inspiration from Max Richter’s Sleep concerts\, Tibetan sound meditation\, Dublab’s overnight Tonalism events\, Phil Niblock’s Experimental intermedia foundation\, and LaMonte Young’s Dreamhouse. \nWe are creating a comfortable setting that people can feel free and safe to stay as long as they want and bring any cushions\, pillows\, sleeping bags\, blankets\, etc to stay overnight so the overnight musical performances be the soundtrack to the audience’s sleeping and dreaming. \nThe musical sets from midnight onward will be beatless/ ambient/modular synth/drone and as chill as possible so that it is comfortable for people to sleep in and not have any startling awakenings. \nAttendees are free to come and go as they please but we would ideally like to create an atmosphere where people would like to spend the night and have an immersive/deep listening/durational/meditative experience. This is why we won’t be programming any overstimulating performances aka noise/beats/drums/loud singing/extreme volumes or excessive high frequencies. \nAmbient/Soundbath/Drone/Modular/Quadraphonic/Deep listening & AV performances from: \nTelefon Tel Aviv\nSam Gendel\nSecret Circuit\nHeare\nMark Van Hoen / Locust\nElectric Sound Bath\nGeorgia (J.

SUMMARY:Audrey Chen • Nour Mobarak • Conscious Summary
DESCRIPTION:– live in concert – \nsolo performances \nAudrey Chen (Berlin/Baltimore)\nNour Mobarak\nConscious Summary \n8pm-11pm\ndonate eight \n  \nAUDREY CHEN \nArticulate down to a single vocal cord click\, Berlin-based improvisor Audrey Chen hyperextends voice\, mining material in between – and beyond – previous utterance. Finding sound via microtones of larynx squeak\, blowing wind turbulence with lip-flip flutters\, and plumming the corporeal with full throated phonation\, Chen also channels an electric flow of tone and pulse accompanying herself on a Ciat Lonbarde synth. Though clearly diverged from staid forms\, she thankfully maintains the rigor of her Classical training to service ever-new and of-the-moment free expression! Returning to L.A. for this solo scorcher and hopefully more\, Chen has worked with Maria Chavez\, Nate Wooley\, C. Spencer Yeh\, and Martín Escalante among many other players in the field. She also maintains a couple of core duos\, regularly parrying with Phil Minton\, and playing in Beam Splitter with Norwegian trombonist Henrik Munkeby Nørstebø. \nhttp://www.audreychen.com \n  \nNOUR MOBARAK \nScouting a new situation with each outing\, Nour Mobarak is an artist whose performance practice rarely repeats a scene\, though – it could be said\, out loud – her voice itself occupies a core presence in her work. Recently Mobarak has investigated the limits of language via a vexing and hyper-personal mode of inquiry: recording conversations with her father\, who speaks clearly\, but is constrained by a fugue state and a perpetually fleeting memory. Topics progress only so far\, before they cycle back or drift away\, even as the polylingual pair hop from one tongue to another. As she readies a record that draws from these convos\, she also prepares a late 2018 live performance at Human Resources Los Angeles. What it will be\, and how we will remember it\, may differ from one moment to the next. \nhttp://nour.computer \n  \nCONSCIOUS SUMMARY \nRightly associated with the autonomous zone that is (the) Handbag Factory performance venue and the Seahorse Sound recording studio\, Samur Khouja has also long poured the surreal into a solo project called Conscious Summary. This is a sound space where possibilities remain open. As this master of tech patches together an organic array of electronic process\, we can access other existential planes via swelling hums and dream of desert sand blowing. Just as easily\, auditory incursions of the weird and jagged shock us back into place. Conscious Summary’s latest Exhaustions has been issued just this month on Skintrade Recordings. \nhttps://conscioussummary.bandcamp.com

SUMMARY:Alexander Kluge: "News from Ideological Antiquity"
DESCRIPTION:Alexander Kluge’s film\, News From Ideological Antiquity: Marx-Eisenstein-Capital\, begins with Eisenstein’s ambitious but unrealized plan to combine Capital and Ulysses. For over nine hours\, the film expands in concentric circles as Kluge\, his guests\, interlocutors and monologists make associative links on a range of topics that starts from a filmic discussion of Eisenstein’s notes. Kluge’s film is divided into three parts: I. Marx and Eisenstein in the Same House; II. All Things are Bewitched People; III. Paradoxes of Exchange Society. At several points in the film we get a sense of what Eisenstein had in mind with his project. In one scene\, we see that a “pot of soup has become a water kettle\, boiling away and whistling: the image recurs at several moments in the exposition (Eisenstein’s notes projected in graphics on the intertitles)\, in such a way that this plain object is ‘abstracted’ into the very symbol of energy. It boils impatiently\, vehemently it demands to be used\, to be harnessed\, it is either the whistling signal for work\, for work stoppage\, for strikes\, or else the motor-power of a whole factory\, a machine for future production …” (Frederic Jameson in the New Left Review\, July/August 2009). By insistence and repetition this banal object\, a commodity\, transforms into a larger-than-life symbol\, and we start to get a sense of the full range of cognitive and material links this commodity has to the web of life that surrounds it. (Marty Kirchner) \nGermany\,  2008\, 570 minutes. Documentary/essay anthology film. German with English subtitles\nWriter/Director: Alexander Kluge\, Cinematography: Michael Christ\, Erich Harandt\, Werner Lüring\, Claudia Marcell\, Heribert Kansy\, Thomas Mauch\, Thomas Willke\, Walter Lennertz\, Editor: Kajetan Forstner\, Andreas Kern \nPresented in its entirety as a 9.5 hour “marathon” screening / Installation. Come and go as you like. Bring extra pillows/cushions for comfort. Refreshments will be served throughout the event. \n \npresented in collaboration with Los Angeles Film Forum and Goethe-Institut Los Angeles as part of their MARX NOW project.

SUMMARY:Views from Here: Los Angeles | A panel discussion about being based in LA
DESCRIPTION:Moderated by Michelle Grabner with Jennifer Bolande\, Neha Choksi\, Courtney Fink\, Galia Linn\, Shana Lutker\, Forrest Olivo\, Paul Pescador\, and Paul Mpagi Sepuya \nJoin us for a conversation about regionality\, locality\, and the myriad of ways in which arts-workers find themselves living and working in Los Angeles. This panel is comprised of artists\, curators\, and art advocates who have spent time in Los Angeles looking out\, and outside of Los Angeles looking in. We come together to take a deeper look at ourselves\, as Angelenos. \nMilwaukee-based artist Michelle Grabner\, an informed “outsider\,” will lead a conversation among panelists and the audience about Los Angeles-ness. A lifelong midwesterner\, Grabner has questions about what’s happening in LA\, and wants to hear about Here. \nThis is the fourth X-TRA Forum\, a series of programs using the 20-year archive of contemporary art quarterly X-TRA as a springboard. Grabner looked back to her first contribution to X-TRA for inspiration for this program. In 1997\, she wrote a review of The Eagle Rock Show\, an exhibition organized by Laura Owens at the Eagle Rock Cultural Community Center printed in X-TRA Volume 1\, number 3. In her text\, Grabner considers the importance of “social skills and generosity” that infused the exhibition\, a group show of artists working in and around Eagle Rock. Now\, 20 years later\, what are the key elements that infuse our art lives in Los Angeles? \nModerator \nMichelle Grabner is an artist\, writer\, and a curator based in Wisconsin. She is the Crown Family Professor of Art at the School of the Art Institute of Chicago where she has taught for twenty-three years. In addition\, Grabner has also held teaching appointments at The University of Wisconsin-Madison\, Cranbrook Academy of Art; Yale Norfolk; Milton Avery Graduate School of Arts\, Bard College; Yale University School of Art; and Skowhegan School of Painting and Sculpture\, Maine. The Indianapolis Museum of Art\, MOCA Cleveland\, Illinois State Galleries\, and INOVA at University of Wisconsin Milwaukee have each hosted survey exhibitions of Grabner’s work. \nGrabner co-curated the 2014 Whitney Biennial and curated the 2016 Portland Biennial. She was the Artistic Director for the inaugural exhibition\, FRONT International\, the 2018 Cleveland Triennial for Contemporary Art. Her reviews are regularly published in X-TRA and Artforum. In 2010\, Mary Jane Jacob and Grabner co-edited THE STUDIO READER\, published by the University of Chicago Press. \nWith her husband Brad Killam\, she founded The Suburban in 1999 in Oak Park\, IL hosting a range of international contemporary art. After 16 years in the Chicago vicinity\, The Suburban began programming exhibitions in Milwaukee’s Walker’s Point neighborhood. In 2009 Grabner and Killam opened The Poor Farm in rural Waupaca County\, Wisconsin. The Poor Farm is dedicated to annual historical and contemporary exhibitions\, lectures\, performances\, publications\, screenings and alternative educational programs. \nPanelists \nJennifer Bolande came of age as part of New York’s Pictures Generation during the 1980s. Rooted in conceptualism\, her work employs various media—primarily sculpture\, photography and film—to explore the quiet affinities between particular sets of objects and images\, and the mercurial meanings they manufacture. Reviewing a show of her work at Metro Pictures\, New York Times’ critic Holland Cotter praised Bolande’s art for it’s “low-key wit\, lively inventiveness\, and subtle eye for metaphor.” Bolande is a professor in the New Genres area of UCLA’s Department of Art. A solo exhibition of her work\, titled The Composition of Decomposition\, is on view at Pio Pico gallery. \nNeha Choksi is a visual artist who works in multiple media\, across disciplines\, and at times collaboratively and in unconventional settings. She was awarded the India Today Best New Media Artist of the Year Award (2017) and the designation of Cultural Trailblazer by the City of Los Angeles DCA (2017/2018). She serves on the editorial board of X-TRA and is currently working with Anuradha Vikram on a series for X-TRA Online called “Views From Here” that will present perspectives on “here” from artists across the globe. Her work was included in Made in LA at the Hammer Museum earlier this year\, and her exhibition and installation\, ELEMENTARY\, is currently on view at 18th Street Arts Center in Santa Monica. \nCourtney Fink is an organizer\, arts advocate\, curator and writer. She is co-founder and founding executive director of Common Field\, a national network of independent visual arts organizations and organizers that connects\, supports\, and advocates for the artist-centered field. From 2002-2015 she was the executive director of Southern Exposure in San Francisco\, a non-profit organization dedicated to supporting visual artists. She serves on the Board of Directors of the Andy Warhol Foundation for the Visual Arts and the Seed Fund. \nForrest Olivo is the founder of Contemporary Art Daily\, a website that publishes high quality documentation of exhibitions from around the world every day. He is executive director of the small non-profit that produces that project as well as Contemporary Art Quarterly\, a set of exhaustive online archives documenting individual art practices. \nGalia Linn a sculptor and site-specific installation artist living and working in Los Angeles. Linn constructs relationships between subject\, object and their environments by creating elemental tensions; a delicate balance between the mediums’ limits and Linn’s exploration with life’s imperfections.  She has shown nationally and internationally\, and is part of numerous private collections in Los Angeles\, Miami\, New York\, Paris\, Brussels and Tel Aviv.  Linn is the founder of Blue Roof Studios is a multidisciplinary art hub located in South Los Angeles. It offers a place for artists to work in an environment that fosters creativity and community. \nShana Lutker is an interdisciplinary artist whose work explores the relationship between language and the unconscious. She has had solo exhibitions at the Hirshhorn Museum and Sculpture Garden in Washington DC\, and the Pérez Art Museum Miami\, and was included in the 2014 Whitney Biennial and Performa 13. Lutker received her MFA from UCLA. She serves as the Executive Director of Project X Foundation for Art & Criticism\, the nonprofit publisher of X-TRA. \nPaul Pescador is an artist\, filmmaker\, performer and writer discussing social interactions and intimacy as they pertain to his own personal identity and history. He graduated with an MFA from University of California\, Irvine and a BA from University of Southern California.

By inserting mirrors and collage-like photographs and staging his friends\, partners\, and lovers as his subjects\, Sepuya investigates the role of the studio as a social environment. He received his MFA from the University of California Los Angeles in 2016 and a BFA from New York University Tisch School of the Arts in 2004. Sepuya’s work has been featured in numerous exhibitions including at the Museum of Contemporary Art Los Angeles; The Studio Museum in Harlem; Franklin Art Works\, Minneapolis; and the Artist Institute\, New York. \nX-TRA Forums are made possible with additional support from Pasadena Art Alliance\, Isambard Kingdom Brunel Society of North America\, and The Andy Warhol Foundation for the Visual Arts.

SUMMARY:Elliot Reed: Ant
DESCRIPTION:January 11th + 12th 2019 12pm – 12am \nAnt is a new project by Elliot Reed. 45 performers create a film in private. The resulting multi-cam footage is projected in the same room\, January 11th + 12th 12pm – 12am \nAnt is inspired by the mathematics concept Langton’s Ant. Langton’s Ant proves that a set of repeated\, simple instructions reveals a complex pattern after many repetitions. This is an abstract machine. Actors navigate each other with written prompts\, each individual reacting to a secret motivation. All directing\, rehearsal\, and subsequent actions are filmed in real time. Any props or detritus from the shoot will be left exactly as is\, leaving a physical memory of private action. Potential is a word that comes to mind. Knowing\, believing\, and understanding that something powerful is present\, but somehow just out of reach. The viewer will recognize their body in relationship to the venue\, and in somatic response to the performers on screen. Elliot Reed will be present noon to midnight January 11th and 12th\, reading an original poem every hour. A printed collection of these poems titled Ant will be available for purchase.

SUMMARY:Dorian Wood: Rhythm Nation 1814
DESCRIPTION:For one night only\, singer/composer Dorian Wood will honor the 30th anniversary of the release of Janet Jackson’s 1989 masterpiece “Rhythm Nation 1814” by performing it in its entirety\, arranged for voice and piano. Says Dorian: “I was 14 when this album came out. No other music at the time sounded like it. I knew every lyric and every dance move\, and Janet’s messages of social justice and reluctant sensuality helped shape my adolescence.” \n“A cutting edge sound that respectfully acknowledges the folk music of his birth\, Dorian is an artist who does not stop…his life is the rhythm of his creative impetus.” – GQ (Mexico) \n“The performer\, who bends genres as much as he bends gender\, in performances that are a little bit torch song and a lot avant-garde\, delivers vocals that offer sublime beauty and pain.” – Los Angeles Times

SUMMARY:There is almost not an interval
DESCRIPTION:We will walk along an unplanned route\, departing from HRLA at the end of the Golden Dragon Parade (3pm) on Saturday February 9th\, and then again at 3pm on Sunday February 10th. Each walk will begin in silence\, with conversation arriving in response to the territory covered and the pace of walking. Live audio from the walks will be streamed to HRLA for the duration of each walk—join us for the walk\, or stop by the gallery to listen in. \n\nThere is almost not an interval (lifted from Gertrude Stein’s 1926 mapping of a continuous present “Composition as Explanation”) approaches the formal components of attention (beginning\, ending\, duration\, suspension\, subject\, object) across a range of scales and distances. Seeking to “reconceptualize lurking as listening” as Kate Crawford proposed in 2009\, we talk now (and probably later too) about the role of memory\, anticipation\, projection\, and transience in forming the attentive listener. De-synchronized and displaced\, Intervals describe the contact between separated speeds\, tonalities\, rhythms\, and subjects; between interior and exterior\, public and private\, here and there\, now and then—punctuated by events and waiting\, covering distance and duration in steps.\n\n*note that Chinatown streets will be closed until 4pm on Saturday February 9th for the parade. Arriving via public transportation or rideshare is recommended on that day. (a map of road closures can be found here)

SUMMARY:Crinkle
DESCRIPTION:CRINKLE is a project exploring sensory perception and themes surrounding multi-sensory integration\, particularly the binding of taste and sound. An attempt at understanding the phenomenon of synesthesia moves one to question\, what does a taste experience sound like?

Over the course of a scored multi-course dinner\, performers and guests will examine and question orientation\, memory\, consciousness\, individual and shared experience\, resonance\, and vibration. \nThis dinner will take place three nights only\, with limited seating. Advanced ticket purchase is required to guarantee entry. \nFebruary 18\, 19\, and 20 @ 8 pm\nHuman Resources\, 410 Cottage Home Street \nfixed menu: $25\nfixed menu with wine: $35\n**The meal features a variety of small plates that include dairy\, gluten\, and nuts (pine nuts\, pistachios\, and hazelnuts). \nBios \nJonathan Silberman is a musician and community organizer based in Los Angeles.

SUMMARY:Kenyatta A.C. Hinkle: The Evanesced
DESCRIPTION:In The Evanesced\, 100+ drawings\, large scale paintings and a suite of performances bring attention to a painful subject: missing black womxn in America and the African diaspora\, from history to the present day. Abstract “un-portraits” of elusive figures are conjured up–drawn with handmade brushes and while the Hinkle improvises dances to blues\, hip-hop\, and Baltimore Club music–pivot between real and imagined narratives representing thousands of black women who have disappeared due to colonialism\, human trafficking\, homicides\, and other forms of erasure. The Evanesced: Embodied Disappearance is a suite of performances that evoke the presences of various types of womxn navigating historical and contemporary contexts. The performance–which includes a soundtrack of whispers\, shuffles\, and snippets of popular and underground music–adds another dimension to this emotional examination of a fraught part of the black female experience. The Evanesced is an expression of the #SayHerName movement of mourning\, awareness\, and healing. \nKenyatta A.C. Hinkle is an interdisciplinary visual artist\, writer\, and performer. Her practice fluctuates between collaborations and participatory projects with alternative gallery spaces within various communities to projects that are intimate and based upon her private experiences in relationship to historical events and contexts. A term that has become a mantra for her practice is the “Historical Present\,” as she examines the residue of history and how it affects our contemporary world perspective. Her artwork and experimental writing has been exhibited and performed at The Studio Museum in Harlem\, Project Row Houses\, The Hammer Museum\, The Museum of Art at The University of New Hampshire\, The Museum of the African Diaspora (MoAD) in San Francisco\, The Made in LA 2012 Biennial\, The BALTIC Centre for Contemporary Art\, Newcastle upon Tyne\, UK and Páramo Galeria\, Guadalajara\, Mexico. Hinkle’s work has been reviewed by the Los Angeles Times\, LA Weekly\, Artforum\, Hyperallergic\, The Huffington Post\, The Washington Post and The New York Times. She is also the recipient of several awards including: The Cultural Center for Innovation’s Investing in Artists Grant\, Social Practice in Art (SPart-LA)\, Jacob K Javits Fellowship for Graduate Study\, The Fulbright Fellowship\, and The Rema Hort Mann Foundation Emerging Artists Award. Her writing has appeared in Not That But This\, Obsidian Journal\, Among Margins: Critical & Lyrical Writing on Aesthetics\, and she has a forthcoming first book called SIR\, a reflection on naming as a tool for undefining the defined\, that will be published with Litmus Press. Hinkle is currently an Assistant Professor of Painting at UC Berkeley’s Department of Art Practice.

SUMMARY:Medium Judith: The Plumbing Tree
DESCRIPTION:Thursday\, February 28 8pm\nFriday\, March 1 8pm  \nTickets: $10\, Buy online to reserve a seat as tickets are limited!! Tickets will also be available at the door if we do not sell out online. buy here \nThe Plumbing Tree is a three-act play\, told through the perspectives of an eccentric family plagued by dogma. Each act is narrated by Miasma\, the personification of a smell. What appears to be an episode of sibling rivalry as presented on a sitcom television show\, shatters into pandemonium after the family is poisoned by methane gas from a plumbing disaster in their front lawn. In the flood of excrement\, the family descends into a collective hallucination. Madness and despair gifts each member of the household with a lucidity that radically calls into question their world views. The play explores ideas of queer familial structures\, polarizing political ideologies\, and social contagions. \nPerformed By: Julia Yerger\, Arne Gjelten\, Chelsea Rector\, Christane Oyen\, Flannery Silva\, and Nour Moborak \nMedium Judith is a host for an interdisciplinary methodology for writing experimental theater works. The company originated in 2012 in Baltimore\, MD with works composed by Bully Fae Collins and Amanda Horowitz. Their collaboration began as an urgent response to emergent political tools of the internet and their recombinant effects on power. Backdropped by this changing political landscape\, they debuted Shy World (2013)\, a one-act play satirizing the conditions of the surveillance state\, internet addiction\, and online activism. It was performed at the Red Room in Baltimore MD and it’s documentation is distributed by Printed Matter NYC. Other projects include\, Flash Drive for Fluxus – a script generated through text messaging\, Lagoon Female – an ongoing collaborative research group\, and Defy a Thing to Be – a performance and dance piece created for Bully Fae. Through a process that utilizes conceptual sculpture\, joke writing\, and concept-map making\, Medium Judith creates a queer theater in which cultural signifiers are transmuted and recomposed into an experimental world logic and value system. \nImage credit: Jonathan Chacon

Jazz for calculators \n1:15 – SIDLE – bass destruction unit superior \n1:45 – Bonemagic – Oklahoma sized metal zone noise merchant. Masterful curator of the Tulsa Noise Fest \n2:15 – Rust Worship – the answer is in the tapes\, cut and repeat\, loop and destroy. \n3:00 – Gabie Strong and Christopher Reid Martin – two heads are better than one… individually these two slay\, but together\, hide your mind lest it be blasted \n3:45 – LOOP GOAT – Californian by way of Michigan\, Jessica A‘s sometimes masked persona careens and caresses her guitar and voice thru cascades of distortion and processing\, hypnotizing her prey before going in for the kill. \n4:30 – Witches of Malibu – funny to think of the darkest sounds coming from the nicest people. Such is the distinct case with the electro-wizardry of the pedal and box wielder that is cloaked as Witches of Malibu… Surf the blood red tide with us. \n5:30 – Rogue Squares – the combined might of Elaine Carey and Carlos Giffoni\, rocking the permutations of vibrations and the waves that save. \n6:15 – Conscious Summary – main man at the (Handbag) Factory\, shining hope for all things independent and good\, Samur also has created a beautifully frightening multimedia performance that is not to be missed. \n7:00 – Ian E.

SUMMARY:A Portal Through Which Love May Enter 
DESCRIPTION:Veronique d’Entremont\, Veronica De Jesus and Cole M. James will discuss and share practices for healing ancestral and family connections\, discovered through art and writing. As a group\, we will engage a practice based in the work of trauma therapist and theologian Kelly Germaine-Strickland\, and spiritual activist Jardana Peacock\, who practice ancestral healing as an extension of anti-racist organizing work. We welcome others to bring their knowledge\, practices and experiences to the conversation. \nDoors will open at 6PM for food and viewing of:\nA Reproduction of the Trauma; A Portal Through Which Love May Enter\nInstallation by Veronique d’Entremont \nSENSORY EXPERIENCES\nArtwork by Veronica De Jesus \nRue: Explorations of Ether\,Fire\, Wata\, and Gia\nArtwork by Cole M.

Artwork by Veronica De Jesus (2nd floor chapel) . The goal of this project for me is to create an experience that brings to light the multi layers of life as it relates to our mind\, body and spirit.\nIn the room you have drawings I made recently which describe a need I feel for more spaces with shared resources\, more community building and more care overall that is not so Commerce driven. Also in the room is a table set up with objects the were crafted by me\, crafted by nature and crafted by the time past. These objects serves as an offering space to spend time to connect\, play and build from within. And finally I will have a letter writing station with stamps\, paper envelopes. I will specifically be encouraging guests to write to my brother Abraham who serves life in prison here in California. I will be sharing a book I handmade that has his writings and drawings he has been sending me over the years. \nRue: Explorations of Ether\, Fire\, Wata\, and Gia. Artwork by Cole M James.  In 2013 I was ushered into a hospital room to undergo a small but invasive surgery.  The next day  I was face to face with an AK 47 at the door of my classroom as the Los Angeles Swat Division cleared the campus of Santa Monica College after a mass shooting. The trauma of my surgery followed by the trauma of living through a mass shooting at the hand of a person diagnosed with a manageable psychological disease made me question many modern practices embedded in our modern health care system.  I started searching for ancestral healing practices.  In an article the plant Rue was mentioned as a useful and abundant herb.  This plant that grows evasively is used all over the world.  It has the ability to aid in regulating the reproduction system of women and suppressing the fertile efficiency of men. Given the name witches herb and Herb of Grace\, Rue is mentioned in ballads of Cecilia Cruz and sonnets of Shakespeare. Rue has many roles within religious ceremony and can be found practices of Santeria\, Appalachian HooDoo\, Voodoo\, Wicca and the Catholic Church.  This project is an exploration of Rue and is centered on the connectivity of ancestral knowledge. \nVeronique d’Entremont (Boston\, 1983) is a LA-based interdisciplinary artist\, invested collaborative practice and community organizing.  Through reciprocal spiritual\, pedagogical and studio practices\, Veronique investigates art as a medium for healing individual and community experiences of trauma.  Her work explores how we are shaped by the social and institutional spaces we inhabit– from our families of origin to academic\, religious and correctional institutions—and seeks to transform these spaces.  She has exhibited in Los Angeles\, New York\, Boston and Mexico City\, and has lectured at UCLA\, CalArts\, California College of the Arts\, Palomar College\, and at California Rehabilitation Center\, a prison in Norco\, CA. In 2016 she co-founded The Liberated Art Collective\, and facilitates healing art workshops with formerly-incarcerated and institutionalized individuals. \nVeronica De Jesus is a visual artist raised in several American cities. She illustrates life as an American\, in all its varied splendor. Drawing on pop culture icons\, sports\, heroes and villains\, and more\, she draws our complex world into focus. Her Memorial Drawings\, an ongoing series of illustrations complemented with text\, honor the many people who have influenced our collective culture and reflect on loss and mourning. Her work also explores identity and the ways we hide and reveal elements of our personalities. For over a decade\, Veronica has been working with artists with disabilities\, including at The Lighthouse for the Blind in San Francisco and NIAD (National Institute for Adults with Disabilities) in the SF East Bay. She is currently The Head Arts Facilitator of the Arts Programming and Exhibitions at UCPLA (United Cerebral Palsy of Los Angeles). \nCole M. James’ work is that of a negotiator\, navigating the African Diaspora\, circling the expanse of queerness and fumbling through womanhood.  James creates paintings\, digital prints and video work that explore the intersections between digital production and the analog collections of lived experiences. James was born in Chicago and raised in Moreno Valley California.  She received a BA from Cal State San Bernardino and MFA from Claremont Graduate University James exhibits her work primarily in Los Angeles but has shown in New York\, Miami and South Korea. She was awarded the Alfred B. Friedman Grant\, Walker Parker Artist Fellowship\, and Mignon Schweitzer Award. In addition to her art practice James is a Human Rights Advocate and community collaborative partner.  James has an installation up at the University of LaVerne titled Edifice Artifice until May 2019.  CM James works and lives in Los Angeles CA. \nA Portal Through Which Love May Enter  is the second day of three days of programming at Human Resources\, organized by Veronique d’Entremont. \n***We apologize but the HR bathrooms and second-floor are not wheelchair accessible.***

SUMMARY:Redactions (In Progress)
DESCRIPTION:This is a new way to think of oneself\, [ ] a body composite. No firm boundaries\, not a me with space around. But one of those games\, [ ] [ ] magnet shards that pull [ ] apart at a suggestion\, seem whole but disperse into their millions. Think of yourself that way\, a toy of many\, host\, hosting\, little bugs\, [ ] gathered for a feast\, a jam\, a quorum\, a minion. [ ] Body doesn’t do a dance\, it is one. \nA performance by Abigail Levine and Paula Matthusen. \nAbigail Levine is an artist working between New York and Los Angeles. Rooted in dance but moving across media—performance\, text\, drawing\, sound—Levine focuses on the poetics of our body’s work\, how we record and value it. Her latest work\, the Restagings series\, has been presented at Fridman Gallery\, Vox Populi and The Knockdown Center\, supported by Foundation for Contemporary Arts\, New Music USA\, and residencies at The MacDowell Colony\, Center for Performance Research\, Brooklyn Arts Exchange and Bemis Center for Contemporary Arts. Past works have been presented throughout the US\, in Cuba\, Canada\, Brazil\, Mexico\, Venezuela\, Greece and Taiwan. Levine performed with both Marina Abramovic (2010) and Yvonne Rainer (2018) in their retrospectives at the Museum of Modern Art. \nPaula Matthusen is a composer who writes both electroacoustic and acoustic music and realizes sound installations. She has written for diverse instrumentations\, such as “run-on sentence of the pavement” for piano\, ping-pong balls\, and electronics\, which Alex Ross of The New Yorker called “entrancing.” Her work often considers discrepancies in musical space—real\, imagined\, and remembered. Awards include the Walter Hinrichsen Award from the American Academy of Arts and Letters\, a Fulbright Grant\, two ASCAP Morton Gould Young Composers’ Awards\, and the 2014 – 2015 Elliott Carter Rome Prize. Matthusen is currently Associate Professor of Music at Wesleyan University. \nDoors 7:30\, show 8

SUMMARY:Guionnet & Khouri • Chen & Sadja • Guionnet & Kennedy & Hutson
DESCRIPTION:The Unwrinkled Ear Presents \nJean-Luc Guionnet and Lotus Edde Khouri – saxophone and dance \nAFTERBURNER: Audrey Chen and Doron Sadja – voice\, electronics and light \nJean-Luc Guionnet and William Hutson and Jeremy Kennedy – saxophone and electronics and drums \nDoors 8:30/ Music 9 \nJean-Luc Guionnet returns to Los Angeles after two years\, bringing with him a new dance collaboration with Lotus Edde Khouri\, and a new trio that has been incipient in his mind since his last foray in our fair city featuring locals Jeremy Kennedy and William Hutson. \nBerlin-based AFTERBURNER is the collaborative project of vocalist Audrey Chen and audiovisual artist Doron Sadja. A live collaboration for hyper-extended voice\, electronic noise and light\, the group weaves together Chen’s idiosyncratic vocal growls and chirps with Sadja’s dense synthetic noise\, often blurring the line between human- and electronically-generated sound. \nDoron Sadja is an American artist\, composer\, and curator whose work explores modes of perception and the experience of sound\, light\, and space. Often using multichannel or motorized speaker systems and high intensity fog and light\, Sadja crafts immersive performance and installation works that are both playful and transportive. Sadja has published music on 12k and Shinkoyo records\, and has performed/exhibited at PS1 MoMa\, Atonal Festival\, STEIM\, Norberg Festival\, Cleveland Museum of Art\, and Issue Project Room amongst others. \nAudrey Chen has created an uncompromising and idiosyncratic music\, tightly disciplined yet acoustically wild and heavy with implication.Her ultra-verbal vocalising\, often reminiscent of the visceral and emotionally charged sound poetry of François Dufréne or Henri Chopin\, exposes physiological aspects of utterance that are concealed within standardised articulation and day to day speech. Fleshy\, breath-driven and flecked with spittle\, Chen’s voice emanates not just from her mouth but from an ensemble of upper body surfaces\, channels\, passages and cavities. – Julien Cowley THE WIRE \nBrought to you with support from Black Editions

SUMMARY:Greg Kelley/Jessika Kenney • Rob Noyes • Wilson Shook
DESCRIPTION:UPEND presents \nGREG KELLEY / JESSIKA KENNEY DUO\nROB NOYES\nWILSON SHOOK \ndonate 8\ndoors at 8\nsound at 9 \nFacebook Event Page\nhttps://www.facebook.com/events/1203512939823489/ \nGREG KELLEY / JESSIKA KENNEY \nFirst time meeting of a surely astounding duo of two key figures in sound: Trumpet player Greg Kelley – on tour from Seattle – and Jessika Kenney – a whose multivalent voice thankfully spectralizes here in Los Angeles – as it will Friday night with a light touch of electronic accompaniment. Acquainted from their years proximate in Seattle\, and having found a rapport collaborating in a larger group context\, they choose to join together on the occasion of the L.A. stop on Greg Kelley’s (and Rob Noyes’) Spring tour of the West Coast.\n\nDeep listeners have witnessed Greg Kelley deconstruct the trumpet’s timbre down to the thinnest splinter; He’s blown a lexicon of clicks and whispers in radical ‘micro’ projects nmperign and The BSC. The heaviest of heads have heard his horn push thresholds amidst seas of guitar squall in Heathen Shame. Hep jazzies have long dug his flourishes of freedom alongside such figures as Joe McPhee\, Chris Corsano\, and Paul Flaherty\, and Bill Nace.  Greg can extend to the fullest to be sure\, and – quite literally – brings a bag of tricks to each set. As a collaborator\, he ever explores dialogue and dynamics\, is at ease abstracting in delicate sound fields\, and resilient at full throttle.\nWhether singing amidst gamelan tones\, classical Persian music\, the heaviest metal\, or the noisiest fuzz\, Jessika Kenney keenly considers the play of frequencies\, and how song acts as a conduit for words and meaning. Her solo works – as well as projects with her core collaborator Eyvind Kang – offer an audio syncretism that draws from established forms while conjuring new expressions. Her sense of the spectral has been heard in the ensemble of Persian ney master Hossein Omoumi\, as well as at the helm of the Austrian Choir on Sunn O)))’s Monoliths and Dimensions. Though her practice includes many a studied approach\, she finds a continued freedom in musics of rebellion; her brushes with the Indonesian punk scene resonate. \nROB NOYES \nFirst solo Los Angeles performance from Rob Noyes a standout 12-string acoustic player from Boston. Rob certainly fits in the recommended-if-you-like Robbie Basho or John Fahey category\, but so simple a move would belie the creative depths he plums weaving a tapestry of sound only possible in the present day\, and only possible where the weaver is an astute listener of records (and practicer of playing) and mad creative. Byron Coley describes his debut LP The Feudal Spirit on the rarefied Poon Village label thusly: “On the way to developing his own compositional/performance approach\, Noyes sometimes seems to have absorbed an almost infinite reservoir of influences… Mr. Noyes hits a vast array of sub-genres on this album\, and he hits them all pretty damn hard. Rob’s playing carries the weight of many possibly-imaginary forebears\, but the way he smears them all together shows a holistic mastery of touch and imagination…” \nhttps://poonvillage.bandcamp.com/album/the-feudal-spirit \nWILSON SHOOK \nWith a range of avant-moves Saxophonist Wilson Shook plays free and fluid. Whether blipping and bursting\, laying out textural feels\, or blowing asymmetries circular and smooth\, Shook averts the obvious – his heightened-awareness flows direct attention to the very now of sound\, and whet anticipation for what’s next. After more than a decade in Seattle as an improvisor and activist\, he’s now home in Los Angeles where his playing has already gripped a few lucky rooms\, and hopefully many more. Heads\, ears – perk! \nhttps://otherghosts.net/

SUMMARY:William Basinski + Lawrence English: Selva Oscura
DESCRIPTION:UPEND presents \nWilliam Basinski + Lawrence English: Selva Oscura \nWednesday May 8th\nat\n9pm \nPlease note: this is a special seated performance with limited capacity. Advance tickets are recommended. \nticket link\nhttps://www.eventbrite.com/e/william-basinski-lawrence-english-selva-oscura-tickets-61247423693 \nfacebook event page\nhttps://www.facebook.com/events/2425987850747632/ \nFrom their respective bases in Los Angeles and Brisbane\, William Basinski and Lawrence English – two crucial figures of ambient music – collaborated remotely\, trading and manipulating sonic materials to create an ever fleeting\, ever unfolding masterwork: Selva Oscura. Released last year by Temporary Residence Ltd.\, the album explores a liminal space at the very edge of beholding\, at once strange and familiar. The phrase Selva Oscura literally translates “as ‘twilight forest\,’ it metaphorically speaks to both those who find themselves on the unfamiliar path and more explicitly the nature of losing one’s way in place and time.” \nJust after twilight on Wednesday May 8th\, the pair convene in the same room in Los Angeles for a rare performance around this cycle\, plumming the resonant space of Human Resources with a shifting pallette of sound. Come catch their perpetual drift.
