SUMMARY:The Never Quartet: An Installation by Michael Morley
DESCRIPTION:Music for The Never Quartet \nan installation for a quartet of four \nbowed acoustic guitars by Michael Morley \n  \nSunday July 14th \nAfternoon\, Dusk\, Night \n4:30pm – 6:30pm – 8:30pm \nfree and open to the public \n  \nwith special performances by Electric Sound Bath & CGRSM \nBlack Editions and Human Resources Los Angeles present the U.S. premiere of The Never Quartet\, a new sound installation piece by Michael Morley. \nMichael Morley is a New Zealand based sound artist and visual artist. His work across a range of genre confirms his abilities as an artist\, composer\, improvisor\, performer\, and producer. Responsible for over 100 audio releases from 1985 to 2019 as: Gate\, The Dead C\, The Righteous Yeah\, The Fuck Chairs\, Sun Valley\, and many other collaborations and solo recordings. The development of Music for The Never Quartet has come from a thirty year exploration of the guitar and of sound as art. \nMusic for The Never Quartet seeks to employ the resonating qualities of wooden acoustic guitars placed upon items of wooden furniture to reveal connections between time and space by sonically activating the instruments and the other wooden objects within architectural structures. Tonal drones are produced by acoustic guitars placed on the top of solid wooden furniture. The tones are generated in the guitars using electronic bows that are placed upon the steel guitar strings. \nDuring the installation the audience will be encouraged to record and playback loops of the quartet on their personal mobile devices so as to contribute to the composition and performance in real-time. \nThe installation will be activated for three 1-hour intervals. Between these intervals there will be special performances featuring: \nELECTRIC SOUND BATH  \nLos Angeles-based duo comprised of Ang Wilson (modular synthesizer and singing bowls) and Brian Griffith (bass guitar and electronics). Inspired by the sound baths made famous by the Integratron\, ESB uses singing bowls\, as well as electric instrumentation to create similarly dense wombs of sound that envelop the listener. \n& \nCGRSM \nLos Angeles artists Christopher Reid Martin and Gabie Strong combine forces as CGRSM to create long form drone music\, focusing on harmonic sensory inundations to render spirited body resonances. The duo traditionally use a variety of electronic instrumentations\, relying mainly on amplified guitars. For this performance\, the duo will play accordion and harmonium to explore the spatial conditions of vibrational acoustics.

SUMMARY:Donna Oblongata: All 100 Fires
DESCRIPTION:Somewhere in a forest nearby\, a lone guerrilla commander will ask you to prove yourself during a game of Pass the Sponge. If you fail at that\, maybe you can help grind the sulfur. \nMeanwhile\, the Giant Ibis was thought to be extinct in Cambodia\, though footage from a few years ago reveals that some still exist. That part of the story is true. Basically. But can you really believe a man who was brought up in the taxidermy trade? Join our hero\, who actually is maybe a traitor\, for the war we were born to fight. \nDonna Oblongata returns after taking three years off from touring with a new solo show\, All 100 Fires. The show stars a guerrilla commander and you\, the new recruits. Birds flutter in and out\, though mostly they are dead. \nIt’s a funny play if you like being told that your best isn’t good enough. It’s a sad play if you were hoping for something more optimistic. It’s an educational play if you want to learn how to make explosives. \nWritten & performed by Donna Oblongata\nProduction/puppet design by Patrick Costello\nDirected by Francesca Montanile Lyons \nRunning time: 70 minutes. \ntickets $10-15 sliding scale available here and at the door\, no-one turned away for lack of funds. \nNOT FOR CHILDREN. Ages 16+ only\, please. \nCONTENT WARNINGS: Show features guns\, suicide\, scary noises and smoke effects. \n“A visionary with a knack for creating experiences that transcend the norm…The scope of this production was unreal…a masterpiece.” –Geekadelphia \n“A welcome oasis of imagination…High-energy\, funny\, and surprisingly moving.” –DC MetroArts

SUMMARY:toxinosexofuturecummings
DESCRIPTION:“Ages ago\, about exactly one week after having Nexplanon removed from the inner side of my left arm\, under the skin\, I felt how my shoulders widened.\nNexplanon is a birth control implant that releases progestin.\nIt contains 68 mg of the active substance etonogestrel.\nSynthetic progestin mimics the actions of progesterone\, a naturally occurring hormone.” \n– Ana Teo Ala-Ruona \ntoxinosexofuturecummings is a bodyfiction about pleasurable sex on a polluted planet. It’s a speech performance of a body making itself with words. In the performance sex is seen as an evolutionary and developmental process. It opens up a world in which materials and multispecies bodies infiltrate each other\, giving and receiving pleasure. The world is thoroughly polluted\, but possible\, queer and trans: full of new pleasures and sexualities. \ntoxinosexofuturecummings is a performance about an anticipatory and transformational state. \nContent warning: The piece deals with environmental toxins\, pollution\, hormones and transition. The speech also includes sexual and pornographic content. \nIn Human Resources the work will be performed in collaboration with LA based trans-futurist and sound synthesist Scallion Chloe. \nWorking group:\nAna Teo Ala-Ruona (text & speech)\nAlvi Haapamäki (costume & maski)\nSatu Kankkonen (sound design)\nScallion Chloe (sound design and processing)\nElina Minn (dramaturgy) \nSaara Hannus (production assistance) \nPhoto credit: Nova Kaspia \nAna Teo Ala-Ruona is a performance and visual artist and educator based in Helsinki. They are interested in generating new forms of collectivity\, interdependence and futurities in artistic practice\, while creating space for silenced\, unheard or non-normative\, queer and trans narratives and experiences. Drawing from techniques found in the fields of feminist pedagogy\, contemporary performance and theater\, activism\, and literature\, they create collaborative strategies for feminist speculative fiction in lived practice. https://anateoalaruona.net \nOrganized in conjunction with Ana Teo Ala-Ruona’s solo exhibition TWAH(=These Worlds Are Here) at Gas\, a mobile\, autonomous\, experimental and networked platform for contemporary art located in a truck gallery parked around Los Angeles and online. TWAH(=These Worlds Are Here) will be parked outside of Human Resources post-show on July 27 from 9-10pm. http://www.gas.gallery \nSupported by Frame Contemporary Art Finland\, the Finnish Cultural Foundation and Poets & Writers. \nSliding scale tickets available here and at the door.

SUMMARY:Shawn Greenlee • Vasculae • Nial Morgan
DESCRIPTION:UPEND presents \nwednesday night noise \ndoors at eight\nsound nine\n–\ndonate seven \nSHAWN GREENLEE (Providence\, RI) \nA perennial figure of Providence’s stridently independent underground\, Shawn Greenlee is known as a pusher of thresholds as a core member of the noise-rock unit Landed\, and had been long identified with his project Pleasurehorse. Having shed that moniker some years back in favor of his own name for solo work\, Greenlee’s practice has only grown to encompass more ground\, branching into complex electro-acoustic experiments\, while still courting the extremes possible within the fabric of digital manipulation. Focused on generating digital audio from graphic patterns – via computer programs of his own design – he advances new methods for interpreting visual image as sound. Indeed\, his live sets pull in a staggering range of sounds\, from crackle to shrill. And\, he’s successfully bridged the gap\, bringing the noise into academic spheres – teaching at Rhode Island School of Design\, and recently diffusing his work through the High Density Speaker array at Virginia Tech. \nVASCULAE \nSound in opposition\, Vasculae is a solo project from Jonathan Borges of Pedestrian Deposit. Untethered by a single compositional approach\, he corrals organic source material into a heavy contemplations\, emphasizing textures and natural dynamics. \nNIAL MORGAN \nNial Morgan has played it fast in loose in solo projects Wrong Hole and Race to the Bottom\, and is a sound contributor to the aesthetic juggernaut that is Free The Land. Lately – under his own name – he has been booting up to process his cache of field recordings.

DESCRIPTION:TRANZA \nShow. Música. Interpretaciones Featuring:  \nThe Sand Ninja \nByron \nAngela Pereira \nAfrica Avila \nGina DVina \nplus other special guests. \n$5 – $20 Suggested Donation. \n#Tranza is a queer performance night in Los Ángeles showcasing LA-based and LA-grown art\, music\, and performances. Created and curated by the Byron Collective\, Tranza creates a space to share and center art work that exists in LA outside of traditional art institutions. \nPerformances: \nBlowing up from Ninjastan: @the_sand_ninja \nThe Sand Ninja is a diasporic warrior who fights against neo-colonialism. During the day (and some nights) she is a professional Gold Digger. She hustles money from her adoring fans to fund her struggle against oppression and her war against bad culturally colonized fashion. She constructs an identity made up of her own melancholic recollections of her people as well as a pan-“middle eastern” look created by Western projections and stereotypes. \nMUST HAVE DATING/CRUISING APP INSTALLED ON PHONE TO ENTER. \nSlunting through the city: @nondocumentedla \nThe Byron Collective stays popping the corn and feeding the Childrenz while functioning as a double agent of the Patriarchy. Inspiring all the hoes through music\, performance\, and too many libations. Be prepared to be immersed in a Juan Ga medley evening\, resistance to gentrification/constant violence/displacement\, and the end of another slunting season. \nFollowed by a very special LA drag show and interpretaciones\, featuring the return of the voice and beauty Angela Valentina Pereira\, the sultry Africa Avila\, la gran diva Gina DVina\, y muchas más!

SUMMARY:Marcia Bassett + Samara Lubelski / Kaori Suzuki + John Krausbauer / Rogue Squares
DESCRIPTION:Doors 8 / Music 9\nAdvance tickets available here \nMARCIA BASSETT (guitar) and SAMARA LUBELSKI (violin) first performed as a duo in 2009\, improvising musical scores to films by Michael Snow and Hollis Frampton at X-Initiative\, Next Years Model series at DIA. Since their initial collaboration\, Bassett and Lubelski have continued to draw from their like-minded approach to improvisational music; creating personal interplay with the environmental surroundings to expand on abstraction\, chromatic noise\, and long form drone. Both Bassett and Lubelski have extensive backgrounds in the East Coast / NYC sub-underground. Bassett has performed in experimental music projects for over twenty years including Un\, GHQ\, Hototogisu\, Double Leopards and her solo project Zaïmph. Lubelski is best known as a solo artist with eight full-length releases\, but she has also been involved in various art-music provocations\, Hall of Fame\, Tower Recordings\, as a member of Thurston Moore’s band\, and in her associations with the long-standing German collective Metabolismus. The 2012 release of their first LP Sunday Night\, Sunday Afternoon\, on KYE Records\, was praised as having “ … incredible expanses and delicately menacing interplay with an increasingly satisfying audaciousness upon each subsequent listen.” — Paul Haney\, Tiny Mix Tapes. The latest LP\, ‘Live NYC’\, Feeding Tube Records (June 2017)\, “Elegantly shows just how much brain damage you can do using only a guitar and a violin… A tale of twinned and lightly fuzzed tones\, twirling and blending…The threads of sound absolutely phosphoresce. It’s an incredible mix of motion\, stillness and power.” – Byron Coley. The duo will have a new LP release on Drawing Room Records Fall 2019. \nKaori Suzuki (US/JP) and John Krausbauer (US) will present music for voices\, amplified strings\, electronics\, and bell percussion. Their work originates from a shared interest in ecstatic and spiritual musics as well as the “avant-garde”. Utilizing sustained tones\, alternate tunings\, long durations/playing endurances\, and stroboscopic lighting\, their music explores the parameters and possibilities of psychotropic ‘experiential’ environments rather than the strictly ‘musical’. \n \nKaori Suzuki is a Tokyo-born music maker/composer living in Oakland\, CA. Her spiraling sound visions often take form in long durations\, using electroacoustic sound technologies\, intensely high register electronics\, modified acoustic instruments\, and tape. She seeks to create heightened listening states\, emphasizing finding ‘music’ within activated space-time. She currently performs solo and plays drums in the Oakland based Minimalist psych-punk group\, Night Collectors; amplified strings in the Ecstatic Music Band; and collaborates with partner\, John Krausbauer\, on immersive light/sound happenings. She has toured and performed her music across the US\, Japan\, Europe\, Mexico\, and Canada\, and has released her music on independent labels in Germany and the US. \nJohn Krausbauer is a composer/multi-instrumentalist/improviser based in Oakland\, CA and co-founder of the Los Angeles publishing label\, Besom Presse. A long time purveyor of the ur-drone and trance-psychedelia\, his work involves audio transmissions for TOTAL/immersive sensory experience. Transcendence through repetition\, duration\, alternate tunings\, maximum volumes\, and stroboscopic lighting. He has performed and presented his music across N America\, Europe\, and Japan in a multitude of settings – from basements\, sidewalks\, and rock clubs to colleges\, churches\, and art museums. Over 20 recordings of his have been released on independent labels in the US\, Europe\, and Japan. His group and solo music can be found on Important\, Beta-Lactam Ring\, ANTS\, Fabrica\, Debacle\, Autumn\, Thin Wrist (upcoming)\, and a number of other international labels. His current music projects include the Ecstatic Music Band (a 10+ member-collective of strings players); solo music for voice\, violin\, and synth; his collaboration with partner\, Kaori Suzuki\, with bells\, voices\, strings\, tape; the Minimalist psych-punk group Night Collectors; his systems-based phase compositions; and ongoing duo collaborations with Kentuckian steel bodied resonator guitar player R. Keenan Lawler\, NYC bagpipe player David Watson\, and Tokyo based guitarist Tetuzi Akiyama.

SUMMARY:Matt Weston (Albany) w/ Shook/Byrnes\, yek koo\, Casa Berenice
DESCRIPTION:Doors at 8\, Music begins at 8:30\nAll Ages\n$10 (advance tickets available here) \nHuman Resources is pleased to welcome MATT WESTON (percussion/electronics) from Albany\, NY. \nMatt will be joined by WILSON SHOOK (saxophones) and TED BYRNES (percussion) for a combined set of solo\, duo\, and trio improvisation. \nYEK KOO (Helga Fassonaki) and CASA BERENICE TRIO (Heather Lockie\, Clay Chaplin\, Sepand Shahab) will help integrate the evening.\n~\n~ ~\n~ ~ ~\nMATT WESTON (Albany\, NY)\nMatt Weston plays percussion and electronics\, and has performed throughout the US\, Canada\, and Europe. \nHe has collaborated with Arthur Brooks\, Bill Callahan/Smog\, Bill Dixon\, Kevin Drumm\, Paul Flaherty\, Charles Gayle\, Milford Graves\, Mary Halvorson\, Le Quan Ninh\, Ben Miller (ex-Destroy All Monsters)\, Roger Miller (Mission of Burma)\, Jim O’Rourke\, Jeff Parker\, and many others. \nHe uses a tympani instead of a snare drum. \nIn addition to his solo work\, Weston is currently a member of the Arthur Brooks Ensemble V; and Arc Pair with drummer Amanda Kraus. \nhttps://mattweston.bandcamp.com/\n~\n~ ~\n~ ~ ~\nWILSON SHOOK (L.A)\nWilson Shook makes music like a moth fluttering at a street light. Graceful\, frantic\, persistent and sometimes tragic\, it is music absorbed of its own inscrutable purpose. It finds serenity in immediacy\, escape in acts of radical presence. It is here\, and then it is not. \nA self-taught improvising saxophonist\, Wilson often performs as a soloist\, with sustained collaborations including Greg Kelley (nmperign)\, Dave Abramson (Diminished Men\, Master Musicians of Bukkake)\, Andrew Scott Young (Tiger Hatchery)\, Ben Bennett\, A. Vitacolonna (Widow)\, Ryan Jewell\, Jacob Wick\, Carol Genetti\, Gust Burns\, Patrick Neill Gundran (Uneasy Chairs). Sporadic collaborations have included many other creative voices in contemporary weirdness.  For 10 years Wilson helped to organize the performance space Gallery 1412 in Seattle. He relocated to Los Angeles in 2017. \nhttps://otherghosts.net\n~\n~ ~\n~ ~ ~\nTED BYRNES (LA)\nTed Byrnes is a drummer/percussionist living in Los Angeles. An alumnus of the Berklee College of Music in Boston\, MA\, he comes from a jazz background and has since made his home in the worlds of free improvisation\, new music\, electro-acoustic music\, and noise. \nTed primarily works in ad hoc improvisational settings\, but has standing improvisational groups including: a group with John Wiese\, a duo with Jeff Parker\, a duo with Chris Cooper (AQH)\, a duo with Charlie Mumma\, a duo with Sam McKinlay\, a duo with William Hutson\, a trio with Jacob Wick and Michael Foster\, among others. Additionally\, Ted has played in duo/trio/or ensemble settings with: Mazen Kerbaj\, Matt Weston\, Ingebrigt Haker Flaten\, Charlemagne Palestine\, Alfred 23 Harth\, Arrington de Dionyso\, Jaap Blonk\, Torsten Muller\, Kim Myhr\, Jim Denley\, Lloyd Honeybrook\, Chris Schlarb\, Mike Watt\, Paul Masvidal\, the LAFMS (including Smegma\, Airway\, Ace Farren Ford’s Artificial Art Ensemble\, Rick and Joe Potts\, Fredrik Nilsen\, Tom Recchion\, Vetza\, etc)\, Sissy Spacek (the band)\, Maher Shalal Hash Baz\, and more. \nhttps://tedbyrnesdrums.com\n~\n~ ~\n~ ~ ~\nYEK KOO (LA)\nyek koo is the solo project of Los Angeles artist\, composer\, and performer Helga Fassonaki. yek koo transverses the visual and poetic\, through the exploration of space\, body\, voice\, and movement.  She can shake up a sound field with dissonance or fill it with cyclical sufi-poetic tones that subtly color her vocal palette. With yek koo\, Fassonaki explores the body as a vehicle for the movement of sound\, utilizing it as a filtering system that pushes sound through the responsive chambers of matter\, air\, and environment\, creating experiences that can be both emotively charged and spatially transformative. \nAside from her expressive free-form guitar\, pocket trumpet\, and vocal wailings in duo project Metal Rouge (with Andrew Scott)\, Fassonaki is known to resound trails of invisible effects and echoes through cassette players and prepared tap shoes\, some of which can be heard on Head\, released on Drawing Room Records in 2017. Bridging her sound and ecological interests\, Fassonaki is currently experimenting with binaural recordings of circular vocal chanting in various natural and geological sites and one-tone compositions in restricted spaces. \nhttps://helgafassonaki.com/yek_koo/\nhttps://soundcloud.com/yek-koo/tracks\nhttps://yekkoo.bandcamp.com/\n~\n~ ~\n~ ~ ~\nCASA BERENICE TRIO (LA)\nCasa Berenice Trio (Heather Lockie\, Clay Chaplin\, and Sepand Shahab) make ambient electro-acoustic improvisation. They scratch violas through electronics\, stretch field recordings\, tweak noisy oscillators\, and have been known to weave a folk song into a patient\, ambient mesh. \nhttps://youtu.be/zOmLj9f49Vs

SUMMARY:Josefina — An Installation by Fabián Guerrero
DESCRIPTION:Opening August 29\, 6-10pm\nScreening at 8pm followed by music and drinks\nOrganized by Fabián Guerrero and Clara López Menéndez \nJosefina is for and about my grandma\, Josefina. I wanted to document\, in short clips\, not only my grandma but also my family: the sounds\, movements and the house that I was raised in as a kid in Valle Hermoso\, Tamaulipas\, Mexico. This video is an introduction into filming and photographing my family’s history in my grandma’s house\, La Casa de Limón\, following a desire to keep track of their everyday living\, the survival\, the hopes and dreams and the stories of immigration that comes with it\, with us. It is also an attempt to reflect on the memories that will continue to inspire and build me\, the roots of me and my grandma Josefina––the beginning of my history. \nI am Fabián Guerrero\, a queer\, first generation Mexican American based in Los Ángeles\, born in Valle Hermoso\, Tamaulipas\, MX\, and raised in Dallas\, TX. I work with film and photography to document\, creating images that reflect on pasts\, presents and possible futures of our generation. My work both reflects and is inspired by my upbringing as first generation migrant and a queer brown individual; taking from fashion\, film\, poems and music\, the lifestyle and everyday survival\, to shed light into my family’s history and the meanders of the brown and queer communities. \nimage: Fabian Guerrero\, Sin Título (under my grandma’s portrait)\, 2019

SUMMARY:Angel Alvarado: Geovani's Room
DESCRIPTION:Exhibition dates: Wed Sept 18 – Fri Sept 20\,  12PM-8PM\nOpening reception: Wed Sept 18\,  6-9PM\nClosing reception: Friday Sept 20\, 6-9PM\, performance at 8PM.\nOrganized in collaboration with curator and researcher Javier Arellano Vences from the Vincent Price Art Museum\, Human Resources Los Angeles is pleased to present ​Angel Alvarado: Geovani’s Room​\, the artist’s first solo exhibition. The exhibition features photographs\, a single-channel video\, and an immersive installation as well as a closing reception performance by Alyss Glass. \nAlvarado’s work investigates the commodification of queer visibility and the dissemination of a canon that situates white cisgender men at the pinnacle of queer sensuality and sexuality\, while concurrently commenting on issues specific to ​brown​ queerness.​ ​Through image appropriation\, manipulation\, performance\, and the insertion of ​brown​ bodies\, Alvarado sabotages constructed realities that are fixated on a homogenized queer experience\, ultimately renouncing conditioned aspirations that often lead to a negative body image and body dysmorphia. \n\n\n\n\nAlyss Glass’s newly commissioned performance\, ​Geovani’s Room​\, provides a reflection onbrown​ queer melancholy. A melancholy that stems from navigating internal violence within personal relationships as in James Baldwin’s novel\, ​Giovanni’s Room​\, and the enduring of external efforts by an array of people and groups to shape gender performativity and gender identity. The fragility of these rigid structures can be seen and heard through the slowed down phonetic reading of the artist’s name\, Alyss Glass\, “all is glass\,” a gesture towards the imminent shattering of these fallacious mechanisms. \n  \n\n\n\n\nAngel Alvarado is a Los Angeles-based artist whose practice revolves around the conception of the ​brown​ body within queer politics. Through a multivalent artistic practice\, he looks to question notions of gender\, sexuality\, and agency through bodies that are perceived as marginalized. He received his BFA in Fine Art at the University of California\, Los Angeles in 2015. \nJavier Arellano Vences has served as the Vincent Price Art Museum’s (VPAM) Curatorial and Research Assistant since 2017. He has contributed and assisted in developing over 15 exhibitions at VPAM\, among them\, ​A Decolonial Atlas: Strategies in Contemporary Art of The Americas​ (2017)\, ​Laura Aguilar: Show and Tell​ (2017) as part of the Getty Foundation’s Pacific Standard Time initiative: Los Angeles/Latin America\, and ​Regeneración: Three Generations of Revolutionary Ideology​ (2018). He also serves as VPAM’s primary English to Spanish translator for exhibitions and publications and provides translation services to other art institutions. Vences holds a BA in Art History from the University of California\, Los Angeles\, and his research centers around the hybridization of U.S. Latinx avant-garde art\, vernacular art\, and anarchism. \nExhibition Credits \nAngel Alvarado: Geovani’s Room​ is a collaborative exhibition organized by Javier Arellano Vences and Angel Alvarado. Poster design by Giancarlos Campos. This exhibition is made possible thanks to Human Resources Los Angeles\, and Vardui Sharapkhanyan. \n**********\nImage Credit: ​Angel Alvarado\, ​a touch of the neck\,​ 2019. Inkjet Print.

SUMMARY:Secret Joy
DESCRIPTION:September 27th & 28th\, 8:30 pm \nWritten and directed by Brian Getnick\, performed by Dani O’Terry and Gregory Barnett \n  \nSecret Joy is a play about beheading the past to make it speak. Sculptural costumes and weaponry are taken up by the performers to transform an ancient power struggle between the crowd and leader into a psychic battle between the body and mind. \nFollowing the presentation of Punishment’s Place in the fall of 2018\, Secret Joy is the second in a quartet of performances engaging the desire for retribution played out in the transformations of monumental sculptural figures. \n5-10$ suggested donation at the door \nResearch for this project was facilitated by the Wallis Annenberg Helix Fellowship \n  \nbriangetnick.com \n  \n*photo by Julie Weitz

SUMMARY:Shhh
DESCRIPTION:Sadly\, in a show about quietness\, it’s my first instinct to write about getting noisy.  \nIf I latch onto a metaphor for political action\, a reader could imagine the swarming power of the colony because\, yes\, each hive is made up of little bees and so\, the modest can become intrusive\, and sure\, maybe the meek will actually inherit the earth—but after all that reversal\, how do we know the oppressed won’t transform despotic? Why was noisy my first instinct and why is it so hard to believe in an equanimous future? Is it because in lives of simple binaries\, a participant can only react to the ‘either’ and never just be? I am…so sick of thinking in opposition\, the quiet that only exists in relation to what is noisy. \nWhat about the value of just one quiet thing at a time? Here’s a show where we’re trying: one night of shuffling sound\, sitting quietly\, and praising the modest rumble. A night of addressing our loud world by checking statement pieces at the door. No promises to save the planet\, just an opportunity to be present for it. \nHope to see you there.

SUMMARY:HRLA Symposium I: Think Local
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a day-long symposium featuring emerging critical voices in our community. This event features responses to work encountered at HRLA\, in spaces like HRLA or in museums in the region. We hope to give attendees a sense of the impact of local performances\, exhibitions and events on discourse about contemporary art; our aim is to create an engaging day of conversation about the practice of art criticism and art writing — one that is inclusive of artists\, students\, critics and scholars. \nWe welcome people coming and going during the day\, but do consider making time to be present for the whole event — our goal is to create a vibe in which the audience contributes as much to the day as the speakers. We have programmed lots of time for discussion — and hope that each session informs what follows it. \nWe are going to do more of these. Our second event will feature hybrid and experimental forms of criticism. Our third event will center writing about organizational dynamics and institutional politics (a topic that will appear in our first session). Please keep your eyes open for our calls for proposals. We want these events to feature people at different points in their work — we welcome proposals from students\, from independent writers\, journalists\, aspiring curators\, artists who want to write more than they do now\, wizened writers who want to support all of the above. \n10:00am: Coffee\, Welcome\, Introductions \n10:30-noon: A Sense of Place (90 minutes) \nNestor Guerrero\, Cesar Ruiz\, Robby Herbst \nThree presentations exploring the practice of signaling\, making and holding space. Topics include Latinx DJ collectives\, intentional music and experimental performance scenes. \n3 15-minute presentations\, followed by 45 minutes discussion \n12:10-1:30 Seminar I (80 minutes\, BYO lunch) \nJekara Govan and Rosalia Lerner are both writing articles about performances that have been staged at HRLA. If you would like to read this work in advance\, please fill out this form and we’ll send you a PDF. \nEveryone is welcome to attend. Those of us who have read these works in advance will lead discussion\, give feedback and advice. This format may be particularly productive for people who are in or are thinking about going to graduate school: both writers are PhD students\, and are sharing work that will be a part of their academic portfolio. That said\, the day’s entire program is geared less towards academics than towards the greater arts community. Meaning\, the conversation should be accessible to artists — and if the writing isn’t\, this is something we’ll talk about! \n1:45-3:15pm: Material Conditions (90 minutes) \nAna Iwataki\, Andy Campbell\, Georgia Lassner \n3 15-minute presentations\, followed by 30-40 minutes of discussion \nThese three writers are writing the material conditions of art-making and the material conditions of artists’ lives. \n3:30-5:00pm: Performance Tactics (75 minutes) \nJoshua Guzmán\, Evan Duncan \n2 20-minute presentations\, followed by 30-40 minutes of discussion \nWe will conclude the day with two slightly longer presentations — here\, we will be opening up our optic as both speakers explore tactics in works they’ve encountered in Los Angeles – our last speaker is working on Adrian Piper; their work was inspired by the Piper exhibition at the Hammer Museum. \nThis program may be adjusted.

SUMMARY:Bitch Slap
DESCRIPTION:Sunday\, October 6th  7pm \n$10 suggested donation \nBitch Slap! is an evening of performance and video art at Human Resources LA\, by female identified and non-binary artists who confront contrived notions of femininity. In a time where didactic art seems like the only pathway to social justice\, these powerful works incorporate humor to playfully explore the embodiment of being a ‘Baddass Bitch. The evening is curated by Liz Miller-Kovacs and hosted by Rochelle Fabb. \nWorks by: \nNao Bustamante \nRochelle Fabb \nJohnny Forever Narwacaj \nDulce Soledad Ibarra \nXandra Ibarra \nSarah Johnson \nLiz Miller-Kovacs (with Pony Lee Musgrave and Julia Cornell) \nMicaela Tobin (White Boy Scream) \nSpecial Guests\nNAO BUSTAMANTE is an internationally known artist\, originally from California; she now resides in Los Angeles.

She has performed at LACMA\, Highways\, Lincoln Center\, Knitting Factory\, the New Genres Festival (Tulsa)\, Mobius (Boston)\, RAW Tempel (Berlin)\, Theatre Nogent (Marnay sur Seine\, France)\, Ex-Teresa Int’l Festival (Mexico City)\, and in galleries\, houses and public spaces. She was a touring member of the Rachel Rosenthal Company and Asher Hartman’s Gawdafful National Theater. \nJOHHNY FOREVER NAWRACAJ is a nonbinary Polish-born performance and video artist currently based between Montreal and Los Angeles. Their work weaves surrealist narrative through the manipulation of mundane objects in fantastical space\, both physical and virtual. Forever insists on the disruption of categories\, building visual allegories for liminal and ever-shifting identities. They also seek to explore love\, loss\, and longing with a particular investment in these themes as a part of radical queer and trans cultural production. \nDULCE SOLEDAD IBARRA is a multi-disciplinary artist\, curator\, designer and non-profit arts advocate based in Los Angeles with special interests in community and identity-emphasized arts and opportunity. As a practicing artist\, Ibarra discusses issues of generational guilt\, intersecting communities\, language\, and cultural identities in videos\, installations\, performances\, and participatory work. Looking through queer Brown/Latinx/Xicanx perspective\, the work is fueled by emotional labor\, persynal research and analyzation. \nXANDRA IBARRA is an Oakland-based performance artist from the US/Mexico border who sometimes works under the alias of La Chica Boom. Ibarra uses hyperbolized modes of racialization and sexualization to test the boundaries between her own body and coloniality\, compulsory whiteness\, and Mexicanidad. Ibarra’s work has been featured at El Museo de Arte Contemporañeo (Bogotá\, Colombia)\, Broad Museum (LA\, USA)\, Popa Gallery (Buenos Aires\, Argentina)\, Joe’s Pub (NYC)\, PPOW Gallery (NYC)\, Anderson Collection (Stanford) and Yerba Buena Center for the Arts (SF) to name a few.

Johnson has performed internationally in galleries\, theaters\, cathedrals\, freeway underpasses\, backyards\, and otherwise. An alum of NYU in Performance Studies\, her work has been featured at Banff Centre for Arts and Creativity (Canada)\, the TBA Festival (PDX OR)\, and Sub Rosa Projects (Greece). \nLIZ MILLER-KOVACS is a contemporary artist working in Los Angeles. Encompassing video\, performance\, photography and installation\, Miller-Kovacs’ work is eclectic both formally and in content. Her studio practice explores the relationship between commodity\, globalized society and the human condition. The conundrum of living in a time where our environment is becoming increasingly uninhabitable while society at large seems preoccupied with assimilating to meditated images has become a focal point in her work. Miller-Kovacs additionally examines the hypocrisy within her critique of the media and her own participation in the indulgent superficiality of commercial culture. Miller-Kovacs has exhibited her works and performed in major art centers and galleries around the North America\, Europe\, Asia and Australia. She is an Alumni of the San Francisco Art Institute where she completed her MFA in New Genres. More recently she completed a Visual Arts PhD at Sydney College of the Arts in Australia\, where she was awarded both the IPRS and IPA international scholarships for the duration of her research. \nMICAELA TOBIN is a soprano\, sound artist\, and teacher based in Los Angeles\, CA who specializes in contemporary opera and experimental voice\, composing under the moniker “White Boy Scream.” Within this project Micaela dissects her operatic singing style and extended vocal techniques through the use of electronics\, in an attempt to undermine patriarchal constructs of her classical training and reclaim the “diva.” She has performed extensively throughout the western United States\, most notably as a guest with hip-hop experimentalists clipping. during their 2017 tour in support of The Flaming Lips. Micaela’s most recent full length release\, “Remains” (Crystalline Morphologies) was listed as one of the top 10 Noise/Industrial Albums of 2018 by The Wire Magazine. \nCuration:\nLiz Miller-Kovacs \nProduction:\nMarcus Kuiland-Nazario \nProduction Manager:\nAbdiel López \nSpecial Thanks:\nHuman Resources\, Vardui Sharakpanyan\, Abdiel López

SUMMARY:Alexandre Dorriz - Consciousness is Code in the Occidental Vacuum
DESCRIPTION:Opening Friday October 11th 7-10pm \nOn view Saturday 10/12 and Sunday 10/13 12—6pm \n  \nConsciousness is Code in the Occidental Vacuum is part of an ongoing investigation of fiber and its relations to time\, memory\, and optics through museology and dramaturgy practices. Dorriz works with the historical discovery of synthetic and semi-synthetic fibers\, and their respective chemical and organic compositions and applications in order to interpret various fibers through rhetorical lens and optical-based systems. By looking at the properties of silkworm fiber as raw protein\, Dorriz interprets the accumulation of woven amyloid fibrils in the brain which are known to cause Alzheimer’s disease through the accidental discovery of rayon (“artificial silk”) by a French chemist’s work in a darkroom. There\, there remain chemical congruences in French chemical company DuPont’s (Dow Chemical) first patents for nylon (PA-66) and the company’s concurrent development of Panchromatic Negative Film cellulose (nitrocellulose) and non-cellulosic bases and emulsions. Using new cuneiforms to interpret optical memory through these empirical findings\, Dorriz works with optical agents\, chemicals such as film developers and fixers and a noxious plant\, Syrian rue (esfand)\, historically used to ward off evil eyes in family homes\, as well as producing the dyes for carpets responsible for hallucinations occurring in weaving circles\, which has led to the expression\, ‘magic carpet.’ \nDuring the three day installation\, Dorriz triangulates these rhetorical fiber exercises through dialogical and dramaturgical interpretations of a 1975 Richard Tuttle exhibition curated by Marcia Tucker at the Whitney Museum of American Art. While Tuttle’s postminimal bodies of work would lead to strong negative reviews of the exhibition and question Tucker’s curatorial expertise by critics\, Dorriz looks to Tuttle’s fiber work\, “Ten Kinds of Memory and Memory Itself” (1973) presented in Tuttle’s first of three rotating installations for the exhibition\, as a retrocausal lens into the events following the exhibition. Tom Armstrong\, then museum director of the Whitney\, would seem to be coerced by critics\, boardmembers\, and trustees into the wrongful termination of Marcia Tucker’s employment following the Tuttle exhibition; where\, Tucker would subsequently found The New Museum in 1977. \n1.

SUMMARY:somesurprises / Jessika Kenney / Jesse Quebbeman Turley
DESCRIPTION:somesurprises (Seattle) / Jessika Kenney / Jesse Quebbeman Turley\nDoors 8pm\, Music 9pm\n$10-15 suggested donation\nAdvance tickets available here:\nhttps://withfriends.co/Event/2681113/somesurprises_Jessika_Kenney_Jesse_Quebbeman_Turley \nsomesurprises is the moniker of Seattle singer/songwriter Natasha El-Sergany. What once was a solo project focusing on spectral balladry and late night exploration\, somesurprises has since formed into a dynamic four-piece live band. Motorik beats\, reverb-drenched vocals\, washes of fingerpicked guitars\, and hazy synths expand El-Sergany’s delicate and blissful songwriting. \nStarting with a solo tape release of cell phone recordings on 2016’s Voice Memos\, El-Sergany then collaborated with guitarist Josh Medina (Debacle Records) for duo debut ambient album\, Serious Dreams\, released on Eiderdown Records in 2017. Serious Dreams was described by The Quietus as “a thoroughly cosmic outing. Everything is lush and smooth enough to describe as ambient music as much as folk\, almost seeming too dreamy to have ever been real.” The release also received kind reviews from Bandcamp\, The Stranger\, Seattle Weekly\, and Tiny Mixtapes. \nNext\, somesurprises took to recording as a full band with drummer Nico Sophiea (MX-80 Sound) and bassist Emma Danner (Red Ribbon)\, releasing Alt\, on LA’s Doom Trip Records in 2018. Aquarium Drunkard compared the three-song “krautpop” EP to an imaginary collaboration between Grouper and Spiritualized. In early 2019\, somesurprises put out a collaborative split tape with Seattle’s Supercandy (some candy\, released by Crash Symbols)\, with guest musicians Brenan Chambers\, Lori Goldston\, Monika Khot\, and Ambrosia Bardos weaving layers of soaring guitar effects\, cello\, vocals\, and trumpet into the mix. \nOver the years\, somesurprises has built a strong presence in the Seattle music scene\, and toured the west coast. In Seattle\, they have opened for touring artists such as Circuit Des Yeux\, Carla dal Forno\, A Place to Bury Strangers\, and the Cave Singers. This year finds somesurprises set to release their self-titled\, full-length LP on Drawing Room Records\, an exciting milestone for this aptly named\, shapeshifting project. \nsomesurprises.bandcamp.com \nJessika Kenney is a vocalist\, composer\, and teacher whose work extends the vocal traditions of Indonesian sindhenan and Persian radif into new realms by way of contemporary composition and improvisation. Internationally regarded for the elegiac timbral quality of her voice\, her practice of sphygmoresonance\, or resonance of pulse\, entails ritualistic focus and reverence for inner architecture that emanates a palpable sense of stillness. Kenney’s interest in the full spectrum experience of sound has led to collaboration with a wide range of experimentalists\, while her partnership with composer/violist Eyvind Kang has yielded five spellbinding albums of minimal\, delicate beauty. A student of radif with Ostad Hossein Omoumi\, Kenney’s music is timeless\, yet steeped in textual research\, respectful of its spiritual roots while invoking unknown futures.

SUMMARY:Nikhil Chopra: Rouge
DESCRIPTION:Rouge is an hour long performance action by Nikhil Chopra. Nikhil will be drawing a large scale landscape on the wall with lipstick. Nikhil incorporates everyday materials\, and for instance\, lipstick— a cosmetic often associated with make up\, femininity\, sensuality and sexuality will be used to transform the body and the space around it. Nikhil’s performances often critically examine stereotypes based on identity; nationality\, gender and class\, while walking the fine line between performance art\, theater and landscape drawing. Rouge is a part of programming for Why You So Negative?

SUMMARY:Protesting Seoul: Resistance in Precarious Times
DESCRIPTION:  \nSpace is limited\, RSVP recommended  \nSeoul is a city of protest. On any given day\, one might see striking workers\, displaced residents\, evicted shopkeepers\, bereaved parents\, feminist\, queer and trans activists\, religious leaders\, politicians\, NGO activists and many others protesting defiantly on the streets. For those living in Korea and in the diaspora who follow political events from afar\, protest is a reliable weapon of the weak and a familiar form of civic participation. Protest images rarely make the English-speaking international press\, though\, except when protests mobilize millions\, like during the 2016-17 Candlelight Protests when millions gathered over 20 consecutive Saturdays in the historic centers of Seoul to demand the impeachment of former President Park Geun-Hye. This immersive lecture draws from long-term field research to go beyond the spectacle and presents some of the most remarkable stories\, sights\, sounds\, forms\, feelings\, and infrastructures of protest-making from below. The flourishing cultures of protest call into question the ongoing relations of power and inequality in Korea and highlight the urgency of resistance in precarious times. \n  \n  \n \nJennifer Jihye Chun is a labor sociologist and associate professor in Asian American Studies at the University of California Los Angeles. Her research explores the interconnected worlds of race\, class\, gender\, and migration through a comparative and critical ethnographic lens. She is the author of the award-winning book Organizing at the Margins: The Symbolic Politics of Labor in South Korea and the United States (Cornell University Press\, 2009) as well as numerous journal articles and book chapters on Asian immigrant women and community organizing; precarious work and labor unions; and gender\, migration\, and care work. Currently\, she is writing a book monograph on protest cultures in South Korea with Ju Hui Judy Han. \n \nJu Hui Judy Han is a cultural geographer and assistant professor in Gender Studies at the University of California\, Los Angeles. Her comics and writings about (im)mobilities\, faith-based movements\, and queer politics have been published in journals including Critical Asian Studies\, positions: asia critique\, and Journal of Korean Studies as well as in several edited books including Q&A: Queer in Asian America (1998)\, Territories of Poverty: Rethinking North and South (2015) and Ethnographies of U.S. Empire (2018). She is currently working on a book manuscript on queer temporalities and the political order in Korea and co-writing another on protest cultures with Jennifer Chun. \n\n
