SUMMARY:Nicholas Deyoe and Matt Barbier
DESCRIPTION:TWO SETS – 8pm and 9:30pm \nDoors at 7pm \n$5-15 Sliding Scale \nVOLUME and Human Resources are pleased to present a performance by guitarist Nicholas Deyoe and trombonist Matt Barbier\, as part of “Cosm\, Organization-Construction\, Second Instance\,” an exhibition of new work by Anja Weiser Flower. Combining both improvisation and multi-channel electronics\, both Deyoe and Barbier will work with large pedal setups to create rich textures of feedback loops and other processed material\, dynamically relayed through multiple amplifiers spread throughout the darkened space. With Flower’s work\, a centralized\, receding point of fixation\, providing a kind of dais and altar\, the performance will build on the transiting and circumambulatory nature of her work to create an enveloping\, panoramic sonic experience. \nThe fourth event in this seven-part series\, Deyoe and Barbier’s performance skillfully combines the two major areas of this event program’s focus–instrumental improvisation and performance on the one hand\, multi-channel electronic work on the other. A hybrid electro-acoustic entity playing on opposite ends of Flower’s work\, the duo will lead a sonic and cosmic transit around this central axis point\, while audience members will be encouraged to relate to both by freely moving throughout the space. As such\, the evening will present an opportunity to draw closer to the often dual influence of sound on Flower’s practice\, ranging from the riot-\, war-\, and crowd-like sounds in Iannis Xenakis’ probabilistic and electronic compositions to the intense silence emanating from Nicholas Poussin’s landscape paintings\, which for him was the confrontation with death. \nTickets may be purchased in advance or at the door on a suggested sliding scale donation of $5 to $15. There will be two performances this evening\, one at 8pm and one at 9:30pm.  VOLUME strives to make its programming as accessible as possible\, and no one will be turned away for lack of funds. All proceeds from the show will go towards supporting the artist and production expenses. \nThis event is intended to be accessible to users of wheelchairs and other accessibility devices. Human Resources’ front entrance has one step\, with a folding wheelchair ramp available. The side entrance is wheelchair accessible. Human Resources does not have a wheelchair accessible restroom. The bathroom is gender neutral and has 2 stalls adjacent to each other. Please contact Human Resources with any accessibility questions or requests. \nABOUT NICHOLAS DEYOE \nNicholas Deyoe is a Los Angeles based composer\, conductor\, and guitarist\, and is the Co– Founder and Artistic Director of the wasteLAnd concert series. His music has been called “intriguingly complex and excitedly lush” by the LA Times. The New York Times wrote that Deyoe’s a new(er) anxiety “contrasted filigree lightness and explosive loudness…without seeming to strain for effect.” Drawn to sounds that are inherently physical\, Nicholas strives to create music that engages listeners intellectually and emotionally by appealing to their inner physicality. His compositions combine uses of noise\, delicacy\, drama\, fantasy\, brutality\, and lyricism to create a diverse sonic experience. As a guitarist\, Nicholas strives to further the already vast sound world of the electric guitar by experimenting with microtonal tunings\, preparation\, bows\, and beer cans. He has received commissions from The LA Philharmonic\, Carnegie Hall\, USINESONORE Festival\, The La Jolla Symphony\, Palimpsest\, and several soloists. His music has been performed in throughout North America\, Europe\, and Japan. As a conductor\, Nicholas has performed with wasteLAnd\, ICE\, The La Jolla Symphony Orchestra\, Red Fish Blue Fish\, Ensemble Ascolta\, The Darmstadt Preisträgerensemble\, Noise\, The University of Northern Colorado Symphony Orchestra\, and many ad-hoc ensembles in the United States and Germany. He holds a Ph.D. in composition from UC San Diego where he studied with Roger Reynolds. Nicholas is currently on faculty at California Institute of the Arts where he conducts The Ensemble and teaches composition. \nABOUT MATT BARBIER \nMatt Barbier is an LA based trombonist and composer focused on experimental intonation\, noise\, and the physical processes of his instrument. His playing has been described by the LA Times as being “of intense\, brilliant\, virtuosic growling that gave the striking impression that Barbier was dismantling the instrument while playing it.” \nTo encourage new repertoire and the expansion of his instrument\, Matt engages in collaborative relationships with a range of composers including Wolfgang von Schweinitz\, Michelle Lou\, Nicholas Deyoe\, David Brynjar Franzson\, Timothy McCormack\, and Katherine Young. He has also given world premieres of works by a wide spectrum of composers including Katharina Rosenberger\, Richard Barrett\, Catherine Lamb\, James Tenney\, Anne LeBaron\, Scott Walker\, and Jürg Frey. \nMatt is a founding member of gnarwhallaby\, the low brass duo\, RAGE Thormbones\, with Weston Olencki\, Trio Kobayashi\, wildUp\, and is an assistant director of wasteLAnd music. Matt is a member of the performing arts faculty at CalArts and teaches trombone and euphonium at Los Angeles City College (LACC). \nMatt has performed for the Monday Evening Concerts\, LA Phil’s Green Umbrella\, Internationales Musikinstitut Darmstadt\, Dartington International Summer School\, the Museum of Jurassic Technology\, Hamburg’s KlangWerkTage and Kampnagel\, Berlin’s 7Hours\, Palimpsest Ensemble\, InAuthentica\, Carnegie’s Zankel Hall\, the New Century Players\, and The Ensemble at CalArts\, as well as presenting guest lectures at CalArts\, UCSD\, UCSB\, University of British Columbia\, and Simon Fraser University. He has also been in residence at Harvard (HGNM)\, UCSD\, Stanford\, CalArts\, UCSC\, Columbia\, NYU\, and UCLA. Matt has recorded works for release of Populist\, Mode\, Hat Hut\, and Innova Records. Additionally\, he has released a technical manual for composers and trombonists on the production and compositional integration of lip multiphonics and split tones. \nAs a composer he has written music and created sound installations for The Factory Seconds Brass Trio\, WasteLAnd\, gnarwhallaby\, RAGE Thormbones\, the Museum of Jurassic Technology\, SASSAS\, Machine Project\, LACMA\, the Los Angeles Trombone Collective\, and the Getty Villa\, as well as engaging in a long term collaborative relationship with digital media artist Tom Leeser. \nHis trombone teachers include Richard Stout\, James Miller\, Michael Svoboda\, Alex Iles and Dick Erb. He studied composition with Ulrich Krieger and Wolfgang von Schweinitz. Matt received a MFA from CalArts. \nABOUT ANJA WEISER FLOWER \nAnja Weiser Flower is trying to stitch together a newly centralized aesthetic construction. Anja Weiser Flower wants to pull the unitary social mind together with you. Is modeling a point of concentration whose sheaves you can read through\, feeling some of the patterns in which our Everything organizes itself. Is trying to get you to feel the underlying potential of a transsexual universality in human life\, is here for the potential of an unwhite disabled queer feminine transcendent overcoming\, the material human community. Coming to meet the still very real possibility of globally overcoming the capitalist social world and establishing communistic social relations. Coming to meet the cosmos. \nShe lives in San Francisco\, California\, attended the San Francisco Art Institute\, and will have her work featured in an upcoming project by the Columbia University Graduate School of Architecture\, Planning\, and Preservation (GSAPP) and Printed Matter\, Inc.

SUMMARY:Pauline Gloss: Lullabies for the Psychotic and Other Recent Work
DESCRIPTION:Literary sound-artist Pauline Gloss will present an evening of new and recent work in the text-sound / sound-poetry tradition. She will perform a new piece for electronics and spoken voice\, conduct a participatory language game\, and present her new cycle for solo voice\, “Lullabies for the Psychotic.”  \nPauline’s current body of work is concerned with how the smallest bits of language— in both their sonic and meaning-making dimensions— can\, through repetition\, variation\, and syntactical rewiring\, create temporary sonic and semantic meaning-making structures.  \nHer work investigates and foregrounds the physicality of language by rendering it architecturally. She makes of its discreet bits shifty semantic and sonic building-blocks whose stability is always already in question.  \nWith the character and reach of this tool set\, she attempts to form a language in which the boundaries and traditional formations of selfhood are plied\, questioned\, and reformed. \nPauline Gloss is a writer and literary sound-artist based in Los Angeles. Her language-sound work attempts to dramatize and expand language in its timbral\, rhythmic\, textural\, and meaning-making dimensions.  \nShe runs Spoken Records\, a label specializing in the release of work in the Text-Sound tradition. She has been written about favorably in art and music publications and has performed or had work shown in Los Angeles\, London\, and New York at institutions including MoCA Geffen\, Cal Arts\, Resonance FM (London)\, Poetic Research Bureau\, The Lambda Literary Festival\, Automata\, Betalevel\, and others. \n$5 suggestion donation doors at 7pm\, performance at 7:30pm

SUMMARY:Elsa Trash\, Igor Amokian\, Zzyzxzyzz\, and O.C.D.
DESCRIPTION:VOLUME and Human Resources are pleased to present performances by Elsa Trash\, Igor Amokian\, Zzyzxzyzz\, and O.C.D. as part of “Cosm\, Organization-Construction\, Second Instance\,” an exhibition of new work by Anja Weiser Flower. Building on themes of spatial orientation and spatial concentration\, this evening will feature harsh and immersive four-channel soundscapes by three notable emerging experimental artists. \nElsa Trash makes noise from a range of sources\, including photographs and cosmic microwave background radiation data. Igor Amokian has been active as a producer for many years\, with a particular emphasis on on circuit-bending a wide range of consumer electronics to produce unique and unexpected sounds. Zzyzxzyzz\, a collaborative project of Aaron Bartell and Ian Wellman\, uses electromagnetism as a base source material for generating live sonic landscapes that merge science and art. O.C.D. is the musical project of Mark Taylor\, who was featured by VOLUME alongside Kid606 and Jan Jelinek in 2016. A common theme is an interest in the material basis and materiality of sound\, augmented here by an exploration of the spatial possibilities of multi-channel performance. \nTickets may be purchased in advance or at the door on a suggested sliding scale donation of $5 to $15. Doors at 7pm \nThis event is intended to be accessible to users of wheelchairs and other accessibility devices. Human Resources’ front entrance has one step\, with a folding wheelchair ramp available. The side entrance is wheelchair accessible. Human Resources does not have a wheelchair accessible restroom. The bathroom is gender neutral and has 2 stalls adjacent to each other. Please contact Human Resources with any accessibility questions or requests. \nABOUT ELSA TRASH \nOver the last 15 years\, Elsa Trash has worked in media including musical and non-musical sound\, drawing\, painting\, sculpture\, video\, zines and comics. Her latest music/sound projects are Painwife\, Scissoring\, S.A.D. and Inverts\, and she was part of the 2017 exhibition Soundtracks at the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art. She lives in Oakland\, California. \nABOUT IGOR AMOKIAN \nIgor Amokian – circuit bending producer cross blends various genres of electronic beats\, music\, and noise\, exploring random realms of sounds with his audiences as his machines usually take over. A wide mix of Igor Amokian sounds and music can be found all over Bandcamp and Soundcloud. Hundreds of Igor Amokian circuit bending videos are posted on YouTube. \nhttps://www.youtube.com/user/AMOKIAN \nhttps://soundcloud.com/soundboxman \nhttps://igoramokian.bandcamp.com \nABOUT ZZYZXZYZZ \nZzyzxzyzz is a collaborative listening experiment conducted by Aaron Bartell and Ian Wellman\, currently focused on the electromagnetic sounds of everyday objects. The project explores an often unheard sonic landscape in the post-industrial world. Aaron Bartell\, AKA AnalScubaHive\, is a sound artist and co-founder of Triptronics Research\, a biweekly experimental electronics series in Los Angeles. Ian Wellman is an IATSE Local 695 production sound mixer and field recordist. \nABOUT O.C.D. \nO.C.D. or Obsessive Compulsive Disorder is the alias of Los Angeles based musician Mark Taylor. His music can be described as experimental electronic music with elements of techno\, psychedelic rock\, dub\, Krautrock\, ambient music\, noise\, and black metal. He is currently working on a collaboration with Madlib and finishing up a new album. \nSome of his influences include Skullflower\, COIL\, GAS\, Autechre\, Philip Jeck\, Demdike Stare\, King Tubby\, Keith Hudson\, Destroy All Monsters\, Aphex Twin\, Darkthrone\, Paysage D’Hiver\, Boredoms\, Lustmord\, Ash Ra Temple\, Faust\, and Popol Vuh. \nUtilizing recordings of synthesizers\, electric guitar\, and samples\, Mark’s sound has the ability to transport the listener to a different place through repetition\, loud volume\, and subtle manipulation of recorded samples to dizzying effect. His music can induce trance like listening experiences while at other times abruptly changing direction on the fly resulting in wild and unpredictable sonic experiences. On stage\, Mark primarily uses recording samplers to achieve his live sounds. He has played consistently around the LA area for over a year now and has opened for Jan Jelinek\, Kid606\, Yann Novak\, Richard Chartier\, Robert Crouch and SFV Acid. \nhttps://soundcloud.com/ocdsound \nhttps://www.facebook.com/OCDSOUND/ \nhttps://ocdmusic8.bandcamp.com/releases \nABOUT ANJA WEISER FLOWER \nAnja Weiser Flower is trying to stitch together a newly centralized aesthetic construction.

Their music combines a variety of genres (including happy hardcore\, industrial\, drone metal\, noise\, disco)\, to create sadical and sexperimental diva-dance anthems that evoke a sense of death\, decay\, and transformation. Queens of the Night is the second album by Xina Xurner following the release of their debut DIE in 2012. \nwww.xinaxurner.com \n  \n  \nTrap Girl \nTrap Girl is a hardcore punk band formed in 2014 by lead singer Drew Arriola-Sands in LA. Trap Girl creates pissed off and cathartic anthems that spit nihilistic venom and don’t hold back. This roaring diva outfit demands to be seen and heard. In 2015\, Trap Girl released their debut album\, From Diamonds to Dust\, which featured hard-hitting anthems such as “I’m a Trap Girl” and “Dead Men Don’t Rape.” In 2017\, they released their follow-up record\, The Black Market. Their music addresses issues such as the violence all too frequently experienced by trans POC and womxn\, and the risks involved with black market surgical procedures. Arriola-Sands created Queer Queens of LA\, a year-round concert series featuring queer artists\, and Transgress Fest\, the first festival in Southern California to spotlight trans/gender nonconforming punk\, hardcore\, and rock musicians. \nwww.trapgirl.bandcamp.com \n  \n  \nThe Uhuruverse \nThe Uhuruverse is a Los Angeles-based PROTEST ARTIST who uses multiple mediums and performance styles\, including burlesque\, butoh\, and drag\, to speak against oppression and demand the liberation of womxn’s and gender nonconforming bodies.

SUMMARY:COSM\, ORGANIZATION-CONSTRUCTION\, SECOND INSTANCE: ANJA WEISER FLOWER
DESCRIPTION:  \nVOLUME and Human Resources are pleased to announce “Cosm\, Organization-Construction\, Second Instance\,” an exhibition of new work by Bay Area artist Anja Weiser Flower\, curated by VOLUME member Jared Baxter. The main exhibition space of Human Resources\, formerly a movie theater\, will be completely darkened\, with Flower’s work\, a new iteration of an ongoing project\, illuminated by a single hanging light. Presented in its “first instance” at Odium Fati in San Francisco in 2016\, the work asserts a receding point of fixation beyond naming. It is a place to trap yourself into heavenly orbit of the possibility of making universal\, real human community\, bringing an end to the world of whiteness\, (cis)gender\, disablement\, and pervasive social alienation\, and unifying human action and knowledge: to face the cosmos. With this orienting device\, we might come together for a moment to consider the proletarian possibility of a universal flowering\, the beginning of a world. \nVOLUME will host seven musical events over the course of the show’s run\, and the last four days of the exhibition will feature an interactive sound installation by Stephanie Cheng Smith. In keeping with Flower’s exploration of both spatial concentration and spatial orientation\, the event program is roughly divided between improvisational\, instrumental\, and electro-acoustic performances and multi-channel electronic work by leading artists in their respective fields. With an aim to opening up possibilities for engagement outside of the traditional performer-audience relationship\, audiences of each performance will have the chance to freely organize themselves in relation to the sound and the space. \nThis exhibition is intended to be accessible to users of wheelchairs and other accessibility devices.  Human Resources’ front entrance has one step\, and they have a folding wheelchair ramp. The side entrance is wheelchair accessible. Human Resources does not have a wheelchair accessible restroom. The bathroom is gender neutral and has 2 stalls adjacent to each other. All events will take place in darkness\, with Flower’s work as the main source of illumination\, and other\, minor lighting sources as needed for a particular performance. Please contact Human Resources with any accessibility questions or requests. \nGallery hours: Wed-Sun\, 12pm-6pm. \nEvent calendar: \n5 April 2018\, 8pm – Opening reception with quadrophonic sound performance by Elsa Trash \n7 April 2018\, 8pm – Extended improvisational performance by pianist Vicki Ray \n12 April 2018\, 8pm – Quadrophonic electronic performances by Igor Amokian\, Zzyzxzyzz\, and O.C.D. \n14 April 2018\, 8pm – Spatialized electro-acoustic performance by guitarist Nicholas Deyoe and trombonist Matt Barbier \n18 April 2018\, 8pm – Quadrophonic electro-acoustic performance by Stephanie Cheng Smith \n19-22 April 2018\, 12pm-6pm – Interactive sound installation by Stephanie Cheng Smith \n21 April 2018\, 8pm – Quadrophonic sound installation by Richard Chartier \n22 April 2018\, 8pm – Closing reception with John Cage’s “Ryoanji” performed by flutist Christine Tavolacci and percussionist Ted Byrnes \n  \nABOUT ANJA WEISER FLOWER \nAnja Weiser Flower is trying to knot together a newly centralized aesthetic construction. Anja Weiser Flower wants to pull the unitary social mind together with you. Is modeling a point of concentration whose sheaves you can read through\, feeling some of the patterns in which our Everything organizes itself. Is trying to get you to feel the underlying potential of a transsexual universality in human life\, is here for the potential of an unwhite disabled queer feminine transcendent overcoming\, the material human community. Coming to meet the still very real possibility of globally overcoming the capitalist social world and establishing communistic social relations. Coming to meet the cosmos.  \nShe lives in San Francisco\, California\, attended the San Francisco Art Institute\, and will have her work featured in an upcoming project by the Columbia University Graduate School of Architecture\, Planning\, and Preservation (GSAPP) and Printed Matter\, Inc. \nABOUT ELSA TRASH \nOver the last 15 years\, Elsa Trash has worked in media including musical and non-musical sound\, drawing\, painting\, sculpture\, video\, zines and comics.

His music can induce trance like listening experiences while at other times abruptly changing direction on the fly resulting in wild and unpredictable sonic experiences. On stage\, Mark primarily uses recording samplers to achieve his live sounds. He has played consistently around the LA area for over a year now and has opened for Jan Jelinek\, Kid606\, Yann Novak\, Richard Chartier\, Robert Crouch and SFV Acid.  \nABOUT NICHOLAS DEYOE \nNicholas Deyoe is a Los Angeles based composer\, conductor\, and guitarist\, and is the Co–Founder and Artistic Director of the wasteLAnd concert series.  His music has been called “intriguingly complex and excitedly lush” by the LA Times. The New York Times wrote that Deyoe’s a new(er) anxiety “contrasted filigree lightness and explosive loudness…without seeming to strain for effect.” Drawn to sounds that are inherently physical\, Nicholas strives to create music that engages listeners intellectually and emotionally by appealing to their inner physicality.  His compositions combine uses of noise\, delicacy\, drama\, fantasy\, brutality\, and lyricism to create a diverse sonic experience. As a guitarist\, Nicholas strives to further the already vast sound world of the electric guitar by experimenting with microtonal tunings\, preparation\, bows\, and beer cans. He has received commissions from The LA Philharmonic\, Carnegie Hall\, USINESONORE Festival\, The La Jolla Symphony\, Palimpsest\, and several soloists.  His music has been performed in throughout North America\, Europe\, and Japan.

SUMMARY:Alan Nakagawa: Peace Resonance & Conical Sound
DESCRIPTION:WORLD PREMIER of PEACE RESONANCE; HIROSHIMA/ WENDOVER and CONICAL SOUND; ANTONI GAUDI/ SIMON RODIA \n3 showings on April 4th\, at 12:00 PM\, 6:00 PM and 8:00 PM \nfree event \nDescription; Two vibratory sound works and screening of two video documentary shorts \nTactile sound experience; the soundscapes are composed for amplification into an interior space utilizing a three-speaker configuration at mid-high to high volume. Audience members are given a pair of ear plugs and a balloon. The ear plugs help the audience focus on the tactile nature of sound waves. The balloon is held at finger tips while the soundscape plays. For this event\, audience members can walk around the room\, playing with the effects to the balloon and body proximity to each speaker. The intention is to illustrate the three-dimensionality of the recording and since the audio is a mash-up of two spaces\, it’s a way to experience an imaginary space; two different locations\, two different moments in time\, the work of two different artists combined into one space\, a neo-space of invisible architecture. \n1) PEACE RESONANCE; Hiroshima/ Wendover is a three-point audio presentation that links the Hiroshima Atomic Dome to the Wendover Hangar. It’s about history\, immigration\, resilience and time. Peace Resonance is my portrait of what it means to be Japanese-American as it relates to post-WWII America. \n“My family is from Hiroshima\, Japan. They immigrated to the US in 1957. I was the first US born family member and grew up with the ‘ghost’ of their WWII history. As my art career grew so did my commitment to develop an artwork about our historical and personal connection to Hiroshima and the Atomic Bomb but it took decades for me to find a path into the subject matter.” \n2) CONICAL SOUND; ANTONI GAUDI/ SIMON RODIA is a three-point field recording-based sound experience\, combining the interior acoustics of the Sagrada Familia (by Antoni Gaudi/ Barcelona\, Spain) and Watts Towers (by Simon Rodia/ Watts Towers\, Los Angeles CA). \n“When I was in the fourth grade at Wilton Place Elementary School in Los Angeles\, I was in the school library looking through books and discovered Antoni Gaudi’s work in Barcelona. The organic forms and use of broken tile made me wonder if Gaudi had plagiarized the work of our local icon\, Watts Towers created by Simon Rodia. \n“Four decades later\, I was given the opportunity to travel anywhere to do research and remembered this moment in the fourth grade. Through the guidance of a network of supporters\, I was able to arrange a residency at the University of Barcelona where a relationship with many of Gaudi’s buildings was already established. In 2013\, I and a crew of artists and professors from the University’s Sound Art Master’s Program entered the Sagrada Familia and conducted a three-point audio recording of the interior acoustics. Later that year\, I was also given permission to conduct a similar recording at Watts Towers.” \nAlan Nakagawa is an interdisciplinary artist primarily working with sound\, occasionally incorporating video\, sculpture\, drawing\, paint\, performance\, food and most recently perfumes. He recently completed an exhibition at Visitor Welcome Center in Los Angeles that\, in part\, presented a survey of work produced at artist residencies from the past five years including residencies with the Los Angeles Department of Transportation (2016-17)\, LA Great Streets (2017-18)\, the Getty Villa (2016)\, Smithsonian Museum of American History (2015)\, Cerritos College Printmaking Studio (2017)\, Echo Park Film Center (2017) and the University of Barcelona (2013). \nSPONSORSHIP: \nPeace Resonance; Hiroshima/ Wendover and Conical Sound; Antoni Gaudi/ Simon Rodia are made possible in part by the City of Los Angeles Department of Cultural Affairs\, Art Matters\, Center for Land Use Interpretation\, University of Barcelona\, Watts Towers Art Center\, City of Hiroshima\, Smithsonian Museum of American History\, Wendover Airport\, KCET\, MacDowell Art Colony\, Japanese American Cultural and Community Center and the Consulate General of Japan. \nHuman Resources was founded in 2010 by a team of creative individuals who seek to broaden engagement with contemporary and conceptual art\, with an emphasis on performative and underexposed modes of expression. Human Resources is not-for-profit and seeks to foster widespread public appreciation of the performative arts by encouraging maximum community access. Human Resources also serves as a point of convergence for diverse and disparate art communities to engage in conversation and idea-sharing promoting the sustainability of non-traditional art forms. \nFor more information contact: Human Resources info@humanresourcesla or\nAlan Nakagawa\, cafelala@yahoo.com

SUMMARY:While I was also listening to ...
DESCRIPTION:image: David Horvitz\, Ocean Sounds (2017) \nWhile I was also listening to Krysten\, LeRoy\, Julien\, Jennie\, Félicia\, David\, Yann\, Luke\, Sarah… \nLa Criée\, in partnership with Human Resources LA\, invites seven artists to expand the notion of narrative and improvisation. Performing narrative\, deconstructing storytelling; this session of While I was also listening to … challenges the traditional approach to narration\, opening up the horizon of what narrative is or how a story can be told. \nA choreographed narration responding to a set of live instructions. A translation of a language and sounds we cannot really write about – but only experience. A series of “automated” books speaking in tongues. A dialogue unfolding with or without words An thread that is an allegory of narration\, linking bodies and stories together. An unexpected and silent presence\, reminding us that every story in order to exist\, need to be listened to. \nThe duration of each performance varies between 5 and 30 minutes. \nArtists and performers: \nKrysten Cunningham\nThe Human Luminescence\nAn interactive performance project for four performers. Inspired by left-brain\, right brain experiments\, it explores a bodily counterbalance to spoken language and orality. \nFélicia Atkinson and Julien Bismuth\nTalking with or without words\nThe artists will engage in an improvised conversation using sound\, objects and images… \nLeRoy Stevens\nPerforming books\nStevens will perform with books that emit pre-recorded sound compiled from television\, radio and other sources. \nJennie Liu\nThe Telling\nA remote-controlled performance with performer/potter Laura Stinger. In The Telling\, choreographer Liu relates her embodiment through a context off-site to Stinger\, who processes what she is receiving via several forms of orature: vocal\, gestural\, material. \nDavid Horvitz\nWhen the Ocean Sounds\nThe artist – together with the audience – performs a text translation of the sounds of the Ocean. (participatory performance\, variable duration) \nLucky Dragons\nLucky Dragons open the door \nYann Sérandour\nAudience dog\nAn unexpected and silent presence wearing a dog mask playfully reminds of the training techniques to give better public speeches by rehearsing in front of a dog. It also refers to the stillness of the performance and to the absence of verbal language. Performing silently for the whole duration of the evening\, Sérandour makes visible the act of listening to –which gives the title to the whole program– and reminds us to pay attention to the multiple narrations unfolded. \nWhile I was also listening to NY & LA is a performative extension of the yearlong series of exhibitions and events Alors que j’écoutais moi aussi […] developed at La Criée centre for contemporary art\, Rennes\, France\, in 2017. This program was conceived and organized by Sophie Kaplan\, director of the art centre\, in close collaboration with three associated artists: Félicia Atkinson\, Julien Bismuth\, and Yann Serandour. The American poet and performer David Antin is the figurehead of this ambitious and polyphonic program. \nWhile I was also listening to NY & LA takes place in Los Angeles at Human Resources on March 22nd and in New York at Artists Space on March 27th and at the Emily Harvey Foundation on March 30th and March 31st. \nThe different components of this project are linked by a common thematic and conceptual concern\, that of narrative. What is a narrative in art (i.e. as exemplified by the two extremes of a personal story and a general art history)? How is narrative used as a medium and form in the arts? How does narrative in turn generate different forms of interdisciplinarity and intermediality? \nOn March\, 22nd\, the first event takes place at Human Resources L.A.\, featuring Krysten Cunningham\, LeRoy Stevens\, David Horvitz\, Jennie Liu and her performers\, Félicia Atkinson and Julien Bismuth\, Yann Sérandour and Lucky Dragons. \nOn March 27th\, the second event takes place at Artists Space\, N.Y.\, featuring Julien Bismuth\, Charles Bernstein\, Jay Sanders\, Tan Lin\, and Ellen Zweig. \nOn March 30th\, the third event takes place at the Emily Harvey Foundation\, featuring Morgan Bassichis\, Constance DeJong\, Wayne Koestenbaum\, Sara Magenheimer\, Félicia Atkinson and Yann Sérandour and is followed on March 31st by workshops led by Svetlana Kitto\, Julien Bismuth and Lucy Ives. \nThe Paris based Italian curator Alessandra Prandin has been invited by La Criée to coordinate and curate this American chapter with local partners Luke Fischbeck from Human Resources in Los Angeles and Rachel Valinsky (Wendy’s Subway) in New York. The event at Artists Space is curated by artist Julien Bismuth\, poet Charles Bernstein and curator Jay Sanders. \nWhile I was also listening to NY & LA is made possible thanks to the generous support of Institut Français / Ville de Rennes / Rennes\nMétropole / Ambassade de France / Ministère de la culture – Drac Bretagne.

SUMMARY:PRICE — Where Do You Wanna Go Today (Variations)
DESCRIPTION:Performance: 8 pm sharp\n$10 suggested donation \nPRICE is a hybrid fictional character born from the sea of information\, who explores the emotional disorientation of a generation having grown up with mass culture\, neoliberalism and the omnipresence of the internet. By probing the mechanisms of pop\, PRICE’s musical stories evoke instability\, fear\, and romantic disillusion. Where Do You Wanna Go Today reinvents itself from clubs to art galleries\, using these diverse contexts to affirm the frustration and solitude of a generation he considers to bedown-and-out. At a time when storytelling has taken over the collective psyche\, the artist’s sincere and ambiguous presence has testimonial value. \nThe performance Where Do You Wanna Go Today (Variations) works with a Pop Musical Audiobook (2017). The album is comprised of different acts\, songs and stories but is treated as a single work rather than a collection of individual pop hits of perfect length\, structure or quality\, and adopts a playful approach to comment on the ways music is perceived today. The title hints to the music’s composition in relation to the acts’ structure\, length\, melodies\, words and themes of geography\, texture and\, most importantly\, the contemporary disorientation of identities. \nBy restructuring pop songs and zapping through different architectural worlds\, this album evokes feelings of dislocation\, instability\, fear and the struggles involved in love and relationships. It advances a queer anonymity freed from any fixed cultural identity in an age of accelerating media exposure fixated on fame. \nWhere Do You Wanna Go Today (Variations) is performed by the voice and body of PRICE\, who in this work welcomes the audience to experience something ‘in between’ rather than accepting pre-labeled differences. It’s a piece that purposefully lacks direction\, triggering nostalgic moods that remind us how to start all over again. \nPerforming Artist Mathias Ringgenberg (aka PRICE\, * 1986 in Rio de Janeiro\, lives and works in Zürich) In his current performative works called\, Where Do You Wanna Go Today (Variations)\, Can’t say much about anything that’s new and the associated debut album Greatest Hits or his video performances A: I am impressed B: Well – I am in love\, Home is a place we all have to find or You don’t touch it\, it touches you\, Mathias Ringgenberg\, developed the fictional character PRICE. \n \nConcept & Performed  PRICE (Mathias Ringgenberg) \nDramaturgy & Character Coach Mira Kandathil \nMovement Research Ivan Blagajcevic \nVoice Coach Katarzyna Sitarz \nMusic PRICE \nMusic Producer Alban Schelbert\, Modulaw \nCostume Design BARRAGÁN \nGraphic Design Bart de Baets \nPhotography Senta Simond \nCo-Production Arsenic – Contemporary Performing Arts Center\, Lausanne\, STUK – House for Dance\, Image & Sound\, Leuven \nSpecial thanks to Tanzhaus Zürich\, Workspace Brussels\, Montevideo Marseille\, Vitlycke – Centre for Performing Arts and Mario Winkler Company GmbH \nThis project is supported by Pro Helvetia\, Swiss Cultural Foundation\, the City of Zurich\, Canton of Zurich\, Ernst Göhner Foundation \nhttp://theworkofprice.tumblr.com/\nhttps://soundcloud.com/price-music/sets/price-where-do-you-wanna-go-today

SUMMARY:Touch Presents...
DESCRIPTION:The release of Yann Novak’s new album The Future is a Forward Escape into the Past\, Touch presents an evening of performances curated by Mike Harding and Novak. The night will consist of short pieces by a wide range of artists with connections to either Touch or Novak. \nFebruary 23\, 2018 \nDoors 7:30pm / Show 8:00pm \nArtists: \nJasmin Blasco \nRobert Crouch \nGarek Druss \nJake Muir \nYann Novak \nZachary Paul \nGeneva Skeen \nByron Westbrook \nBios: \nJasmin Blasco (b.1981) is a multi-disciplinary artist who approaches time-based media as the site where sound\, image\, and language conspire to generate fictions. Through a process of research and abstraction\, his practice stages the individual in problematic narratives. He lives and works in Los Angeles. \nBlasco holds a BFA in Music Technology from the California Institute of the Arts. He is a graduate of the Media Design Practices program at Art Center College of Design(MFA). His current research project examines the project of space exploration in its symbolic and cultural dimensions. The resulting works are composed of fictional journal entries authored by a theoretical entity: The First Human Born In Space. \n  \nWith Andrew Friend and Sitraka Rakotoniaina\, he is currently developing Very Very Far Away. Based on a workshop series of the same name\, VVFA is a Podcast documenting fictional encounters with the new denizens of space colonization. With the collaborative research platform The NOISE INDEX\, Blasco explores the topicality of informational hunger within a framework that runs counter to expected display strategies.The works Convergence and Horizon have been exhibited in Paris and New York at Cutlog\, through Fragmental Museum. He also hosts Speak My Language a monthly show of curated music on the internet radio collective Dublab. Blasco is a mentee in the 2017 Touch Mentorship Programme. \nhttp://jasminblasco.com \nRobert Crouch is an artist and curator whose work encompasses sound\, performance\, and technology. As an artist\, he locates his work with the intersection of post-phenomenological listening practices\, conceptual sound art\, and contemporary electronic music. At its core\, his work can be understood as a conversation between tonality\, context\, history and subjectivities. Similarly\, Crouch’s curatorial work focuses on the overlapping disciplines of sound\, technology\, movement\, and performance. \nIn 2014 he organized the North American premiere of Sphæræ\, a large-scale inflatable performance space and public artwork by Dutch artist Cocky Eek. In 2017 he co-curated Juan Downey: Radiant Nature\, a survey of early interactive and performance work of the late Chilean artist as part of the Getty initiative\, Pacific Standard Time: LA/LA. \nCrouch is the former Associate Director/Curator at LACE\, where he curated solo exhibitions with artists Karen Lofgren\, Gina Osterloh\, Steve Roden\, Sean Sullivan\, and Margo Victor\, and performances with artists including William Basinski\, Celer\, Lawrence English\, Dominick Fernow\, and Yann Marussich. He is also the founding partner of VOLUME\, a curatorial project that functions as a catalyst for interdisciplinary new media work through exhibitions\, performances\, events\, lectures\, and publications\, and has worked with a wide range of artists including William Basinski\, Nate Boyce\, Frank Bretschneider\, Richard Chartier\, Heather Cassils\, Celer\, Loren Chasse\, William Fowler Collins\, Tim Hecker\, Isis\, France Jobin\, Kadet Kuhne\, Lucky Dragons\, Mamiffer\, Carsten Nicolai\, Yann Novak\, taisha paggett\, Steve Roden\, Terre Thaemlitz\, Julie Tolentino\, and Christopher Willits. \nCrouch is currently the Executive and Artistic Director for Fulcrum Arts and the Artistic Director for the AxS Festival. \nhttp://www.robertcrouch.com \nGarek Druss is a Los Angeles based sound and visual artist who creates work that explores the balance between the physical being and the incorporeal or non-being.  His aural works create active and engaged listening environments that allow for heightened states of self-reflection and phenomenological awareness. His work utilizes watercolor drawings\, video\, and vibrant soundscapes to create temporary ambient interactions that examine the human condition. Druss’ interest in creating work that develops the public’s sonic palette has lead him to several international residencies\, multiple museum performances in the U.S. and Europe\, album and sound art releases in conjunction with art exhibitions\, installations\, and live performances. He has collaborated in musical\, dance\, and performance-based projects\, including the atmospheric electronic group\, A Story of Rats. He also worked with the internationally recognized performance theater ensemble\, Saint Genet.  Exhibition and performance locations include the Seattle Art Museum\, the University of Washington’s Henry Art Gallery\, the Museum of Contemporary Canadian Art\, Toronto\, Ontario\, Canada\, and Kunsthalle\, Krems Austria. He has received support from the New Foundation Seattle and 4Culture. His visual art is a part of several Seattle public collections. \nhttp://garekdruss.com \nJake Muir is a sound designer and artist currently residing in Seattle\, Washington. Armed with a keen ear for textural environments and haunting aural landscapes\, Muir creates ghostly soundscapes from field recordings\, reinterpreted vinyl loops\, and radio segments. This source material is processed digitally to further place these found sounds into a new context. \nMuir released his debut album\, Muara\, under the moniker\, Monadh\, on Further Records in 2016. Muara drew from experiences and trips around the Pacific Northwest\, evoking the deep ties to location and mood in Muir’s approach to microscopic manipulation in the sound composition process. \nhttps://www.jakemuir.org \nYann Novak is an artist\, composer\, and curator based in Los Angeles. His work is guided by his interests in perception\, context\, movement\, and the felt presence of direct experience. Through the use of sound and light\, Novak explores how these intangible materials can act as catalysts to focus our awareness on our present location in space and time. Novak’s diverse body of works – audiovisual installations\, performances\, architectural interventions\, sound diffusions\, recording\, and prints – ask participants to reclaim the present moment as a political act. \nNovak’s work has been experienced through exhibitions and performance at the Armory Center for the Arts\, Pasadena; The Broad\, Los Angeles; California Museum of Photography\, Riverside; Commonwealth & Council\, Los Angeles; de Young Museum\, San Francisco; Getty Villa\, Pacific Palisades; Hammer Museum\, Los Angeles; The Henry Art Gallery\, Seattle; Human Resources\, Los Angeles; Los Angeles County Museum of Art\, Los Angeles; Mutek Festival\, Montreal; Norton Simon Museum\, Pasadena; San Francisco Museum of Modern Art\, San Francisco; Soundfjord\, London; Susanne Vielmetter LA Projects\, Los Angeles; Tanya Bonakdar Gallery\, New York; and The Stone\, New York\, among others. His recorded sound works have been published by Crónica\, Porto; Dronarivm\, Moscow; Farmacia901\, Berlin; Hibernate\, Leeds; Home Normal\, London; LINE Imprint\, Los Angeles; Tigerbeat6\, Los Angeles; and Touch\, London\, among others. \nhttp://www.yannnovak.com/ \nZachary Paul (b. 1995) is a classically trained violinist and composer based in Los Angeles. Interested in perception\, the transportive nature of long durations\, and trance states\, his work explores the contrast between stasis and movement and questions the possibility of depicting both synchronously. In live performance\, he builds lush soundscapes via improvisation\, representing his immediate experience & the space being performed in. His work draws from a long lineage of artists exploring sustained tones within organic performance\, including Tony Conrad\, Pauline Oliveros\, and La Monte Young. Under the moniker Poppy Nogood\, Zachary has released two albums through European record label Preserved Sound. \nhttps://soundcloud.com/poppynogood \n  \nGeneva Skeen is an interdisciplinary artist working in Los Angeles. Influenced heavily by écriture féminine\, alchemical metaphors\, and a mix of musical traditions ranging from holy mysticism to industrial\, Skeen composes with field recordings\, digital presets\, mixed voice and instrumentation\, and both found and filmed video.

SUMMARY:Meet the Candidate: Kristina Wong for Something or Other
DESCRIPTION:Kristina Wong is a performance artist\, comedian\, and hopefully with your vote\, a future disgraced Politician. After touring the world with original stage and guerrilla performance\, Kristina realized her artful spectacles could no longer compete with the shock of real life. Therefore\, Kristina has decided to move her performances onto the public stage and run for political office before 2030 or when the country implodes (whichever comes first). But first she needs a public think tank\, a slogan\, and people to bribe her. This night will be an experiment in crafting political narrative. It’s a combination of learning about Kristina’s 18 year history of performance work\, and also a group honing a vision of her campaign that will leave voters swooning. **This is her first public event\, so expect bumps. \nPresented by at land’s edge

As a performer\, he plays in chamber ensembles\, orchestras\, recording studios\, and as a soloist. His music has been commissioned by the Library Foundation of Los Angeles\, Loadbang\, the Ekmeles Vocal Ensemble\, and numerous soloists. As a performer-composer\, Worthington has released two albums to critical acclaim on Populist Records. The most recent\, Prism\, features his own music for solo bass with electronics and bass ensemble and was named one of The New Yorker’s top ten classical albums of 2015 by Alex Ross. In 2017\, Worthington became the principal bass of the Redlands Symphony and the Artist Teacher of Bass at the University of Redlands. www.scottworthington.com \nUlrich Krieger \nUlrich Krieger is an internationally recognized German composer and saxophonist living in Southern California. He is known for his originality and innovation in composed and free improvised contemporary music. As a celebrated composer of chamber and electronic music\, Krieger’s compositions are widely performed by ensembles in Europe and the USA. He works in variety of contexts; from new and experimental music to free improvisation\, electronic music\, reductionsim\, noise\, ambient\, rock and metal. \nHe has been active in pushing the boundaries of saxophone playing in general and the function of the saxophone in rock and noise in particular\, collaborating with Lou Reed (Metal Machine Trio\, Lou Reed Band)\, Lee Ranaldo (Text of Light)\, Faust\, and Merzbow\, in addition to leading his own death-doom-noise-metal band Blood Oath. \nIn his distinct style of amplified saxophone playing\, Krieger processes refined acoustic and quasi-electronic sounds by amplifying his instrument in various ways. He gets down to the grains of the sounds\, changing their identities and structures from within. No saxophone player has ever dared to explore these uncharted outer realms of woodwind expression. \nOutside Krieger’s solo practice\, he has performed extensively with his groups Metal Machine Trio and Text of Light. He has collaborated and performed with Lou Reed\, Faust\, Merzbow\, Thomas Köner\, Carl Stone\, John Zorn\, Lee Ranaldo\, Christian Marclay\, Laurie Anderson\, LaMonte Young\, Phill Niblock\, Radu Malfatti\, Michael Pisaro\, Berlin Philharmonics\, Ensemble Modern\, PARTCH Ensemble\, and many more. As a saxophonist he has performed in Europe\, the Americas\, Asia and Australia. Krieger studied classical/contemporary saxophone\, composition\, electronic music\, and musicology in Berlin and New York. He is professor for composition\, Experimental Sound Practices\, and rock music at CalArts\, where his special field of interest is the cross-pollination of new art music and avant-garde rock. \nKrieger’s recent focus lies on the fringes of contemporary rock culture\, in the areas of limbo where noise\, metal\, silence\, and experimental chamber music meet. Not accepting stylistic categories\, Krieger’s practice operates in the margins of 21st century genres while resisting the problematic trappings of appropriation. His compositional approaches include micro-sounds\, microtones\, reductionism\, ‘instrumental electronics’ (instrumental music evoking the soundworld of electronics)\, drone\, and noise; forms that often demand elaborate and nuanced amplification. www.ulrich-krieger.com \n\nJoin us  for drinks & music!

SUMMARY:Music by Tashi Wada
DESCRIPTION:Music by Tashi Wada\, performed by Charles Curtis\, Dafne Vicente-Sandoval\, Tashi Wada and Julia Holter \nThis program collects three long-form works by composer Tashi Wada that explore diverging aspects of tuning and tonality. Valence (2016)\, written for cellist Charles Curtis\, isolates and reharmonizes the natural overtones of a single string\, destabilizing and fusing tone and timbre through a delicate alchemy. Witness (2017)\, written for bassoonist Dafne Vicente-Sandoval\, draws out the relationship between an array of scales and tetrachords (four-note segments of scales) found traditionally in Greek\, Persian\, and Arabic musics\, in combination with hybrid and invented scales\, through repetition\, variation\, and improvisation. Mutable Signs\, Wada’s performance for keyboard\, voice\, and sirens with guest musician Julia Holter\, focuses on the outer edges of historical\, non-equal temperaments\, eliciting a more distant\, uneven sense of tonality. \n \nTashi Wada is a Los Angeles-based composer and performer whose works explore harmonic overtones\, resonance\, and dissonance through precise tuning and a gradual change in pitch. Grounded in a belief that “music should be as direct as possible\,” his compositions use apparently simple structures to generate rich and unanticipated perceptual effects. Working in relation to American experimental music\, microtonal music\, and so-called drone music\, Wada’s practice is also informed by interdisciplinary performance and Fluxus-affiliated artists. He studied composition at CalArts with James Tenney and for many years has performed alongside his father\, composer Yoshi Wada. \n \nAcknowledged internationally as a performer of new and experimental music\, cellist Charles Curtis has been associated with minimalist pioneer La Monte Young since 1987\, their intimate working relationship having yielded retroactive recalibrations of pieces like Young’s 1958 Trio for Strings. Curtis has created a new body of work for solo cello through additional close collaborations with composers Alvin Lucier\, Éliane Radigue\, Christian Wolff\, Alison Knowles and Tashi Wada. Rarely-heard works of Terry Jennings\, Morton Feldman and Richard Maxfield have also been signposts in a performing life that extends to membership in experimental rock band King Missile\, collaborations with Bongwater and Borbetomagus\, and studio appearances with the likes of Herbie Hancock and Wayne Shorter. Straddling the boundaries between art rock\, sound art\, and minimalist composition with his own Charles Curtis Trio\, for Curtis the heterogeneity of his practice returns to the same simple values\, the same concerns for precision and specificity of expression and craftsmanship\, all in the service of a very fundamental human expression. Trained at Juilliard\, Curtis was First Solo Cellist of the NDR Symphony Orchestra in Hamburg before becoming Professor of Music at the University of California\, San Diego in 2000. \n \nJulia Holter is a composer\, performer\, and recording artist based in Los Angeles. Her interest in the mysteries of the sonic atmosphere has compelled her to record in various settings–in her home\, outside with a field recorder\, and in professional studios—as well as to perform live\, often with a focus on the voice. She has studied music composition at Cal Arts and University of Michigan and has performed at various venues and festivals around the world. She frequently collaborates in group projects as well\, with artist and musician friends Rick Bahto\, Ramona Gonzalez\, Tashi Wada\, Yelena Zhelezov\, Laurel Halo\, Mark So\, Cat Lamb\, Laura Steenberge\, and more. \n \nDafne Vicente-Sandoval is a bassoon player\, who explores sound through improvisation\, contemporary music performance and sound installations. Her instrumental approach is centered on the fragility of sound and its emergence within a given space\, testing the threshold between instability and control. Dafne currently lives in Paris. She favours long term collaborations within which her work keeps an integrity while holding a dialogue with that of others (current collaborations with Jakob Ullmann\, Éliane Radigue\, Klaus Lang\, Peter Ablinger). Her work has been shown in contemporary music festivals (Huddersfield Contemporary Music Festival\, England; Musikprotokoll\, Graz; Blurred Edges\, Hamburg; El Nicho\, Mexico; Tectonics\, Glasgow)\, as well as in improvised music (Konfrontationen\, Austria; No Idea\, Texas) and sound art (Tsonami\, Chile) festivals.

SUMMARY:we tbd
DESCRIPTION:To begin\, a structure made of scaffolding and wood that reorganizes and reshapes the internal space of Human Resources. In the course of this reshaping\, we hold an exhibition that serves to model dynamic notions of connection\, difference\, and community\, and to reflect the conscious self-creating of a group process. \nInspired by notions of empathy and intersubjectivity in the Netflix original series (now cancelled) Sense8\, a cluster was created by Olga Koumoundouros: John Booortle\, von curtis\, Alexander Kroll\, Francesca Lalanne\, Kristy Lovich\, Ofelia Marquez\, and Jennifer Moon. Brought together to be part of this material and psychic experiment\, this group of artists use a diverse set of strategies to understand people\, to build and express empathy. Because of this\, the structure\, and the events we organize throughout the exhibition\, tend towards care and support systems: setting up the conditions to be making work together\, to add onto\, and to grow into.  \nSchedule of Events\, in process: \n  \nSUN 2/11 \n10am — 2pm\nCO/WORK/PLAY with HEY BABY/a feminist parenting group\nHEY BABY / a feminist parenting group invites you to explore the assertion that culture work is a form of care and care is a form of culture work.

Regular\, recurring dialogues throughout the year focus on the intersections of multiple identities\, including Race and Class\, Sexuality and Race\, and Gender and Race. Other workshops focus on relationships\, Radical White Identity and Community\, and issues such as police and the prison industrial complex\, immigration\, and gentrification. Together we’ll consider the work of building a white anti-racist practice a critical part of our radical care for the collective\, the self\, and relationship – within ancestral lineage\, family\, friendship\, and community and invite you to share in a process of making this work visible as a cultural form and an indispensable part of the abolition of white supremacy.  \n8 — 10pm\nTashi Wada (performance) \n  \nSUN 2/18 \n10am — 2pm\nWorkshop: Marks\, Materials\, Sense (toddler centered workshop) with Sarah Eggers \n10am — 2pm\nIntros & Space-Making | Playing Dough with Ching Ching Cheng \n10am — 2pm\nCO/WORK/PLAY with HEY BABY/a feminist parenting group \n6 — 7pm\n“Adventures with You” Live Broadast (via KCHUNG Radio) \n8 — 10pm\nIsaura String Quartet (performance) \n  \nTUES 2/20 \n6 — 10pm\nCommunity Potluck \n  \nTHURS 2/22 \n7 — 9pm\nKristina Wong (presented by At land’s Edge) \n  \nFRI 2/23 \n12 — 4pm\nResource Pool: Playgroup/infoshare for kids with disabilities and their caregivers with Kaitlynn Redell \n12 — 4pm\nCO/WORK/PLAY with HEY BABY/a feminist parenting group \n8 — 11pm \n Touch Presents… (performance) \n  \nSAT 2/24 \n7:30-10pm\nPRICE (performance) \n  \nSUN 2/25 \n10am — 2pm\nWorkshop + Dialogue: Art\, Mental Health\, Community Healing with Sarah Eggers \n10am — 2pm\nIntros & Space-Making | Playing Dough with Ching Ching Cheng \n10am — 2pm\nCommunity Acupuncture/with Andrea Penagos\nEngage in self-care with a group acupuncture session + guided meditation facilitated by licensed acupuncturist Andrea Penagos\, L.Ac.

The convergence of diverse healing techniques for mind\, body\, and spirit round out Yunuen’s understanding of the body’s holistic functioning in our societies. She has cultivated herself in the art of native medicine ways of North America. She learned Tuina massage as part of her Bagua practice training and has a master level in Usui Reiki. She was certified in Taoist stomach massage and Fire Therapy in Beijing. Her experience as a Registered Dental Assistant\, as well as her advanced training in Logotherapy and Family Constellations give her a strong base in Western medicine and psychology from which to translate Eastern and native healing systems to the West. \nYunuen’s performance art practice\, and her anthropology graduate research in native epistemologies and borders\, inform the pedagogy of her teachings and the quality of her therapies. \nShe shares her practice with artists\, activists\, and the community at large since 2011 through workshops in Mexico\, the United States\, Germany\, the United Kingdom\, Spain\, and Cyprus. \n  \nOrganized by Vardui Sharapkhanyan and Marcus Kuiland-Nazario.

SUMMARY:New Performances
DESCRIPTION:An evening of short performance by: \nErica Magrey \nAmanda-Faye Jimenez \nAbigail Levine & Corey Fogel \nPasadena House Wives \n Erica Magrey is a Brooklyn-based interdisciplinary artist working with video\, performance\, music\, costume\, sculpture\, photography\, and set design. Her work playfully examines the embodiment of personas in order to inhabit familiar and foreign\, human and non-human characters\, performing an investigative relationship with them. Once conjured\, the persona’s fit may be surprising: like a deja vu glove\, a seamless transition; or\, bulkily\, somewhere on the spectrum toward needs alteration. In videos and live performances\, the audience bears witness to acts of transformation and embodiment; in interactive works\, the user is granted agency to participate in transformative manipulations. \nAmanda-Faye Jimenez is a Blaxican queer fat femme dyke writer and performer. She has performed at SORORITY at The Hammer Museum\, the Radar Productions Queer Readings Series\, and the McDonald’s in Silverlake next to her favorite gay bar. When she isn’t spilling her guts onstage\, she can be found creating semi-relatable social media content @failureprincess and letting her dogs kiss her on the mouth\, even though everyone says that’s some white people shit. \nAbigail Levine is a New York-based choreographer and performer. Her works are rooted in dance and draw from visual and performance art. Corey Fogel is a drummer and artist whose practice is based in momentary encounters often involving the intersection of sounds\, objects\, textiles\, foods. The two artists perform together for the first time on January 12 \nPasadena House Wives met at a cocktail and craft party held every third Sunday of the month at their country club. They bonded over mutual frustrations with absent husbands and annoying children\, their abilities to drink more cocktails then beads on a necklace\, and hot secretive affairs with their children’s college friends. They started playing music together because both their therapists suggested alternative modes of mental and physical release as a way to maintain a healthy outlook on life.
