SUMMARY:Touch/Volume: BJ Nilsen\, Mark Van Hoen & Pinkcourtesyphone
DESCRIPTION:VOLUME is pleased to present an evening of performances by Touch related artists curated by Mike Harding. \nABOUT THE ARTISTS \nBJ Nilsen is a Swedish composer and sound artist based in Berlin and London. His work is primarily focused on the sound of nature and its effects on humans. His two latest solo albums released by Touch Eye Of The Microphone (2013) – a personal audio rendition based on the sound of London – and The Invisible City (2010)\, have explored the urban acoustic realm. He has collaborated with Chris Watson on Storm and Wind\, released by Touch (2006\, 2001). His original scores and soundtracks have featured in theatre\, dance\, and film\, including Microtopia and Test Site (2013\, 2010\, dir. Jesper Wachtmeister)\, Enter the Void (2010\, dir. Gaspar Noé)\, and\, in collaboration with Jóhann Jóhannsson\, I am here (2014\, dir. Anders Morgenthaler). Co-editor of the publication The Acoustic City together with Matthew Gandy. \nMark Van Hoen is a recording artist who has been recording electronic music since 1981 and releasing records since 1992 on labels such as R&S/Apollo\, Touch\, CCO & eMego. Mark Van Hoen is from London\, England and currently lives in Los Angeles USA. Mark featured on Scala’s Touch releases as well as his own solo albums Last Flowers from the Darkness and Wrong. \nPinkcourtesyphone is a continuing project by Los Angeles-based sound artist Richard Chartier (b.1971). He is considered one of the key figures in the current of reductionist sound art which has been termed both “microsound” and Neo-Modernist. Chartier’s minimalist digital work explores the inter-relationships between the spatial nature of sound\, silence\, focus\, perception and the act of listening itself.

SUMMARY:TERRE THAEMLITZ: SOULNESSLESS: CANTOS I-IV & FÉLIX SOLANO VARGAS: CRUNCHY EGGS
DESCRIPTION:VOLUME presents a very rare performance by acclaimed artist and electronic musician Terre Thaemlitz. Terre will present selections from Soulnessless\, her 32 hour opus described as the “world’s longest album in history.” Described by Thaemlitz as “a deconstruction of notions of spirituality\, meditation\, superstition\, and religiosity perpetuated through audio marketplaces that insist upon judging audio in relation to “authenticity” and “soul\,”Soulnessless is comprised of several “cantos\,” each of which explore themes such as gender transitioning\, immigration\, Catholicism\, and labor.\n\nThe performance starts with a 5-10 minute slide show\, where Thaemlitz explains the scale and format of the Soulnesslessproject\, followed by an 80 minute performance of Cantos I-IV.  The evening will conclude with a 30-45 minute Q&A with the audience. \nThe event will commence with a reading by LA based writer Félix Solano Vargas from his recent publication\, Crunchy Eggs\,  a series of micro-fiction and prose about growing up in a Chicano Jehovah’s Witness household\, family\, queer trauma and survival. This work is also place based\, about Riverside\,CA and brown trans labor. \n\nThere will be a limited number of tickets available for only $7 now through the end of December\, then they go up to $10 before the event\, then $15 at the door. \n\nABOUT THE ARTISTS \nTerre Thaemlitz is an award winning multi-media producer\, writer\, public speaker\, educator\, audio remixer\, DJ and owner of the Comatonse Recordings record label. Her work combines a critical look at identity politics – including gender\, sexuality\, class\, linguistics\, ethnicity and race – with an ongoing analysis of the socio-economics of commercial media production. He has released over 15 solo albums\, as well as numerous 12-inch singles and video works. Her writings on music and culture have been published internationally in a number of books\, academic journals and magazines. As a speaker and educator on issues of non-essentialist Transgenderism and Queerness\, Thaemlitz has lectured and participated in panel discussions throughout Europe and Japan. As of January\, 2001\, he resides in Kawasaki\, Japan. \nFélix Solano Vargas is a writer and visual artist. He was born and raised in Riverside\, CA.

SUMMARY:Tiger Munson
DESCRIPTION:Human Resources Los Angeles presents artist Tiger Munson&#146;s Numinous Rupture: An exploration of the individual and collective relationship we have with atomics\, our nuclear world\, and cataclysm. The exhibition consists of artist Munson&#146;s photographic fabric light installation\, performances by his portrait subjects\, and an afternoon symposium.\n\nJanuary 17th to 25th\nOpening reception and performances: January 17th 7-10pm \nGallery Hours: January 18-January 25 THU-SUN\, noon-5pm\n\nOgechi Chieke \n“Why the Schlong Face?” performed by Camille Bachand\, Clark Walter and Shaq Jizz \n“OFFLINE WORLD”\na story of the moment of the end of the world.\nPerformed by CLOCK with Helen van der Neer including the 42 string double bow harp\, voice and orchestral backgrounds \n“Memento Mori”\nperformed by 3-19 Dance Art \n“Life is short\, and shortly it will end;\nDeath comes quickly and respects no one\,\nDeath destroys everything and takes pity on no one.\nTo death we are hastening\, let us refrain from sinning.” \nCreated and Choreographed by Beatriz E Vasquez\nMusic for Variation #2 and #8 composed by George Ramirez\nBody Paint by Alfredo Iraheta \nDancers:\nErnesto Mañacop\nOmar Rodriguez Diaz\nBeatriz Eugenia Vasquez \nThe premiere of “Multiple Personality”\, torrential experience Leopold Nunan Soares and full band \nSymposium: Saturday January 24th 2 pm \nAli Tobia The Puissance of the Human Energy Field: A Yogic Look at Energy Possibilities for When the Polar Ice Caps Melt and Fossil Fuel Supplies Deplete. \nJoseph Hankins\, author of Working Skin: Making Leather\, Making a Multicultural Japan\, on the Buraku\, the &#147;untouchable&#148; social class\, the workers at Fukushima \nAnd other presenters to be announced\n \n…\n \n  \n&#147;Now I am become Death\, the destroyer of worlds&#148; \n— text from the Bhagavad Gita\, quoted and mused by Robert Oppenheimer\, the physicist behind the creation of the atom bomb\, upon seeing the first nuclear explosion. \nUsing backdrops of atomic bomb blasts painted in the 1950&#146;s by a scenic background artist who painted the clouds in the &#147;Wizard of Oz&#148; &#147;Ben Hur &#147;and &#147;Showboat&#148;\, among other Hollywood movies\, Munson sought to investigate social\, historical\, and alternate constructs via the portrait studio. The backdrops were jumping off points for intersections of contemporary representation and catastrophe. As artifacts and stand alone works of art\, they maintain an aura of both an historical Cold War period of American and world history\, and a fictionalized\, Hollywood representation of that awareness. The backdrop was simultaneously the object and signifier of &#147;the portrait studio&#148; and functioned as such\, and also initiated the creative individual engagements with the subjects. How does the scope of this human historical milestone\, both as a direct and mediated cultural consciousness\, impact the individual persona? What are our mythologies\, hopes\, recourses? Despondency\, aggression\, monstrosity\, optimism\, survivalism\, escapism\, transcendence: all are branches to this nuclear tree that fan out in a usual trifecta of contemporary discourse: race\, gender\, sexuality. These sensibilities extend through the photographic images in this project. In development and under wraps for three years\, the images in Numinous Rupture are seeing their debut both as an art project\, a photo fabric light installation at Human Resources Los Angeles in Chinatown\, and in their photographic form online and in prints.

SUMMARY:SAVE MUSIC IN CHINATOWN benefit with MIKE WATT!!!!
DESCRIPTION:SAVE MUSIC IN CHINATOWN 5 benefit with MIKE WATT and the SECONDMEN + THE GEARS + STEVE SOTOTickets: https://www.eventbrite.com/e/save-music-in-chinatown-5-steve-soto-solo-acoustic-the-gears-mike-watt-the-secondmen-tickets-14636916411 \nAdvance ticket sales end at noon on Sunday\, January 11. If we do not sell out\, there will be tickets at the door. \nTHE SHOW \nThis is the fifth in a series of fundraising concerts organized to pay for the defunded music education program at Castelar Elementary School. Established in 1882 and sitting right in the middle of Chinatown\, the inner-city campus serves mostly immigrant kids who don’t get much exposure to performing arts or creative outlets. \nChinatown has an unbeatable musical past (mostly punk) and rad art scene in the present (post punk). Neither crowd has had very much to do with the residents in Chinatown but we’re trying to create a bridge for both to help out the local kids. \nThe bill channels Chinatown’s past and present\, punk and art\, raw and refined: \n• Steve Soto of The Adolescents\, Agent Orange\, Manic Hispanic\, 22 Jacks\, Joyride\, and so many other great bands is a musical dynamo\, punk legend\, and famously good guy who is making time to play a special solo acoustic set for our cause.\n• The Gears were a fixture in the pre-hardcore L.A. punk scene\, incorporating surf guitar\, blues\, and rockabilly into their roots-rocking sound\, and we’re stoked that they’re returning to Chinatown to play our show. They still crank out new music\, and are the subject of a soon-to-be-released documentary.\n• Mike Watt & The Secondmen are led by the San Pedro-based bass player from the Minutemen\, fiREHOSe\, DOS\, and countless other projects. Watt is as creatively active as he is beloved by the SoCal punk scene as he is influential to modern music in general\, and this trio is unbelievably tight.\n• DJ services will be KCHUNG’s Kings of Punk. \nThat’s a lot of entertainment value for 12 lousy bucks (and maybe some raffle tickets). \nTHE RAFFLE \nIn addition to donating for admission\, guests will be able to donate money toward raffle tickets for a chance to score prizes. $1 = 1 ticket. So far\, contributions from supporters include: \n• DVD of History Lesson Part 1 (w/ Minutemen\, Meat Puppets\, Redd Kross\, and more)\n• A pair of tickets to the Cafe NELA show of your choice.\n• A pair of shoes from Keep Company.\n• The Fifth Beatle signed by artist Andrew Robinson (courtesy of The Beatle Years)\n• CDs from Sean & Zander\n• Our Vinyl Weighs a Ton DVD signed by Peanut Butter Wolf (courtesy of Poketo)\n• Zines and stickers from Allister Lee\n• Packet of backyard honey-based lip balm courtesy from Sticky Acres \nCheck this site regularly for additions as the show draws nearer. \nSET TIMES \nTentatively…\n3:00 Doors\, DJ set by KCHUNG’s Kings of Punk\n3:30 Mike Watt & The Secondmen\n4:15 The Gears\n5:00 Steve Soto (solo\, acoustic) \nMusic between bands provided by Kings of Punk \nPARKING \nThere is free parking on the streets (try going north on Broadway) and cheap parking at Mandarin Plaza (across Broadway\, slightly south). \nMISC. \nAll ticket proceeds minus surcharges will be donated directly to FACES (Friends and Alumni of Castelar Elementary School\, a registered nonprofit organization) to be applied specifically to the music education program.

SUMMARY:Ted Byrnes + Jeff Parker / Guillermo brown / fay
DESCRIPTION:Please join us for this special ‘matinee’ show with the trio of Ingebrigt Håker Flaten\, Jeff Parker and Ted Byrnes. \n2PM/7$ \nAbout Ingebrigt:\nIngebrigt Håker Flaten (b. 1971\, Oppdal) – studied Jazz at the Music Consevatory in Trondheim\, Norway (1992-1995) under the tutelage of bassplayer Odd Magne Gridseth. \nA muscular player whose tone and attack run the gamut from Paul Chambers to Buschi Niebergall\, his sense of both openness and control serves ensembles as diverse as The Thing\, Free Fall\, Atomic\, Scorch Trio and the Kornstad/Håker Flaten Duo. In addition to his own Chicago Sextet and Austin-centric Young Mothers\, Flaten has also recorded and performed with Frode Gjerstad\, Dave Rempis\, Bobby Bradford\, the AALY Trio\, Ken Vandermark\, Stephen Gauci\, Tony Malaby\, Daniel Levin\, Dennis Gonzalez and numerous others. Flaten studied at the Conservatory in Trondheim (1992-1995)\, turning professional shortly afterward\, yet his hunger to play in new situations with new musicians – schooled or amateur\, frequently recorded or just starting out – puts him in a rare class\, that of a truly broad-minded artist. That mettle has served him well\, living and developing the music under his own steam and drawing from influences as diverse as Derek Bailey\, George Russell\, Chris McGregor\, filmmakers Ingmar Bergman\, contemporary pop melody and gritty punk music as well as everyday sights and sounds. \nAbout Jeff:\n“I’m mainly a guitar player. I like to make music in many different ways. I think music opens doors. Some of the bands I play/have played with: Tortoise\, Chicago Underground\, Isotope 217º\, New Horizons Ensemble\, A Cushicle\, SpliceCat\, Moment Of Inertia\, TriColor\, Brian Blade Fellowship\, Joey DeFrancesco Trio\, Jeff Ballard Fairgrounds\, Powerhouse Sound\, Fred Anderson Quartet\, Joshua Redman Elastic Band\, a.o. I sometimes lead projects of my own: they usually are simply called “Jeff Parker” or “Jeff Parker _____ (trio\, quartet\, organ quartet\, etc.) and may consist of myself performing alone or with small or large aggregates of various configurations…” \nAbout Ted:\nTed Byrnes is a improvisor/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\, electro-acoustic music\, and noise. Ted plays in a variety of circumstances\, but plays occasionally with: Ulrich Krieger\, John Wiese\, Airway (LAFMS)\, Alfred Harth\, Jaap Blonk\, Torsten Mueller\, Nicholas Deyoe and others. \nAbout Guillermo:\nGuillermo E. Brown\, a drummer\, emerged as a result of his association with David S. Ware and other free jazz musicians from New York. As a solo artist and in his work with artists such as Spring Heel Jack and Matthew Shipp\, he has attempted to combine free and traditional jazz playing with electronic music\, hip-hop\, and ethnic musics. \nBrown was born into a musical family in New Haven\, CT\, in 1976. He grew up around jazz\, hip-hop\, and rock\, and he became involved with ambient and techno after hearing DJ Spooky. Brown replaced Susie Ibarra in the David S. Ware Quartet before the recording of Ware’s Surrendered in 2000. He also played on 2001’s Corridors & Parallels\, the first Ware album to feature Matthew Shipp on synthesizer. In 2001\, Brown also played on Rob Reddy’s Seeing By the Light of My Own Candle and Roy Campbell’s It’s Krunch Time\, as well as on Masses\, an album that featured many New York free jazz musicians improvising over backing tracks created by the electronic duo Spring Heel Jack. In 2002\, Brown appeared on DJ Spooky’s Optometry; Shipp’s jazz/hip-hop album Nu Bop; and he played with William Parker’s big band\, the Little Huey Creative Music Orchestra. Brown also released his solo debut\, Soul at the Hands of the Machine\, an album even more eclectic than those on which he had previously appeared.

SUMMARY:Johnnie Jungleguts: After Ken Sugimori
DESCRIPTION:Who is Ken Sugimori?\n“Who is Ken Sugimori?” is an installation consisting of nearly 800 drawings of every Pokemon and mega-evolution in the Nintendo canon. It’s taken artist Johnnie JungleGuts over a year to complete these drawings and they represent a culmination of his work within the Pokemon fandom. This opening at Human Resources also includes a video screening curated by Johnnie which features videos from many different fandoms and artists. And of course\, there’s also going to be a Pokemon tournament. \nWho is Ken Sugimori? \n“Ken Sugimori is the art director for the Pokemon universe. Although the legend is that he personally created the original 150 pokemon\, evidence suggests that it was a team of people from the beginning\, including an artist named Atsuko Nishida\, who created pikachu. Although many people can name several pokemon\, very few people could name their creators. When I started this work didn’t know why I was doing it or where it would go\, I just did it because I felt like I could. I still don’t have answers\, but if anything I hope this work makes people think about authorship in mass media.\nIncarnations of this work have been accessories to 8 different LA events including a Pokemon festival at Chin’s Push gallery\, a pop up Pokemon restaurant at Thank You For Coming\, and a panel discussion on Pokemon at the Hammer Museum. It’s been a true joy to watch artists and pokemon trainers collide as I exorcise my obsessive need for intimacy with this media onto an unsuspecting art world. ” – Johnnie JungleGuts \nDarmok and Jalad at Tanagra- A video screening at 8:30pm \n“Darmok and Jalad at Tanagra” is a phrase in the ridiculous Tamarian metalanguage of Star Trek; it represents cooperation against extreme differences. This screening contains some adult language and themes. and runs for will run for about an hour with videos by…\nMichael Paris\nMarcos Siref\nGeneral Idea\nGreatWhite666\nWe The Geeks of East LA\nEnable\nKate Bush\nAdrian Tenney\nCat Ninja Core\nMissy “Misdemeanor” Elliot and Da Brat\nDara Birnbaum\nThe Hungarian Horntails\nQcom M\nand a very special live performance by Johnnie JungleGuts \nSmogon OU Pokemon Tournaments! – 4-8pm \nOf course this event wouldn’t be complete without Pokemon tournaments!

SUMMARY:Fayçal Baghriche: Walk the Walk
DESCRIPTION:“A globe spinning so fast the continents can no longer be made out\, flags wrapped around themselves\, showing only their red colour\, a video reversing the course of time – starting from the formulation of a hypothesis\, the works of Fayçal Baghriche undermine our most familiar points of reference by staging fundamental actions. Playing on discrepancy\, the artist invites us to distance a normalised reality. Mixing performance\, installation\, video and photography\, he reveals\, the better to annihilate them\, the systems of identification\, behavioural models or language structures that determine what we are and become a pretext for the poetic construction of another reality. \nBorn in Skidda\, Algeria\, in 1972\, Fayçal Baghriche studied at Villa Arson in Nice then moved to Paris\, where he helped to create an artist’s residence (La Villa du Lavoir\, since 2003) and a curatorial structure (Le Comissariat\, since 2006). His artistic work has been shown in numerous exhibitions in France and abroad.” \n– Vérane Pina  \nHuman Resources LA presents Fayçal Baghriche’s “Walk the Walk” (2014)\, a large-scale installation that meditates on everyday public life in Los Angeles: telephone poles. \nGallery hours: Fri– Sun\, noon-6PM;  Mon-Thu by appointment only.

SUMMARY:Decolonizing the White Box II
DESCRIPTION:A follow up to last month’s community gathering initiating conversation about structural racism in and around the art world. \nWe are still defining the shape of this conversation—but this event will have a more traditional structure: we will stage a roundtable conversation with a handful of artists and art-workers\, and then open the event up to conversation with the audience. Confirmed panelists: Carolyn Castaño\, Amitis Motevalli and Ricardo Abreu Bracho. \n\nWe would like to welcome people with a slideshow — send us examples of work that inspires you\, work that opens up one’s thinking about what it means to develop a decolonial practice\, imagine a different future\, another world\, to mine the past. Work by your spirit guides\, work of your own that you would like to share. You can send images to HRLA by emailing us through our website\, or by posting to the facebook event page for this event. \nNearly 200 people showed up for the first of these gatherings exploring the colonialism of the structures and modes of relation that people of color especially encounter in and around the art world. This is more than twice the size of any audience that has attended previous community forums at HRLA—and it meant that the first phase of the event was\, for many people\, unwieldy. Many left in the first hour\, but more stayed. We worked our way toward conversation—and engaged in important listening exercises with each other. People shared powerful stories of exclusion and erasure. \nFor this session\, we will listen to a panel of artists and art-workers with different kinds of practices and experiences\, and talk with them. Hopefully\, as spaces and collectives continue to program events supporting the exchange of anti-racist perspective and ideas\, people can enjoy the sense that each event is part of a larger\, ongoing and heterogenous process.

SUMMARY:Carmen Argote - My Father's Side of Home
DESCRIPTION:HRLA is proud to present My Father’s Side of Home\, an installation project by Carmen Argote.\n\n\nCarmen Argote “Manta” (2014) (image courtesy of the artist) \n \n\nPreview: Nov 14\, 12-6\n\nOpening: Nov 15 7PM-10PM\n\nSchedule: Nov 16-22 12PM-7:30PM\, with nightly film screenings beginning at 6PM\n\nClosing Event: THE 16 HOUR EXPERIENCE November 22th 7PM – November 23rd 11AM\n\n \n\n\n			\n				\n			\n			\n				\n			\n			\n				\n			\n			\n				\n			\n			\n				\n			\n			\n				\n			\n			\n				\n			\n			\n				\n			\n			\n				\n			\n			\n				\n			\n			\n				\n			\n			\n				\n			\n			\n				\n			\n			\n				\n			\n			\n				\n			\n			\n				\n			\n		\n\nCarmen Argote “Mantas” (2014) Material: Acrylic on Muslin\, graphite. Dimensions: each Manta is approximatly 17′ x 18′(image courtesy of the artist) \n“I covered the walls and floor of the room I was staying in at Mansion Magnolia with muslin fabric. Muslin fabric being a material that moves through economic classes in Mexico\, artisanal and working class. I traced everything that was touching the walls and floor. I painted the fabric and it shrank. The shrinkage revealed to me that the work was about being derived from something but no longer fitting it\, it visually captured my father’s experience of wanting to return to Mexico\, doing so\, and no longer fitting in. The work also resembled his early architectural in-plan drawings. For the exhibition My father’s side of Home\, I showed the muslin fabrics as they were\, forming the room space that they were made in. In Los Angeles\, this action is one that looks back upon my father’s experience. His architectural in-plan drawings\, in reverse.” \n\n			\n				\n			\n			\n				\n			\n			\n				\n			\n			\n				\n			\n			\n				\n			\n			\n				\n			\n		\n\nCarmen Argote “Pool” (2014) (images courtesy the artist) \n“This work shows the pool that my father would point to when\, as a child\, I would say that I wanted a pool. My father would respond with\, “there’s a pool waiting for you in Guadalajara.” The idea of another life\, another me\, living out daily rituals with different surroundings has continued to linger with me. The longing my father felt to return to the Guadalajara he left\, became my longing to also be there\, and here\, simultaneously. The frame that holds the pool reminded me of the neoclassical architecture that I would see in our family owned events venue Mansion Magnolia. Both Mansion Magnolia and the Condominio Oxford lot were the places I remember going to while we would visit Guadalajara.” \nWith MY FATHER’S SIDE OF HOME\, Carmen Argote shares one result of her process of inhabiting Mansion Magnolia\, a neoclassical style mansion built in the early 1900’s that belongs to her family in Guadalajara\, Mexico. Argote explores personal history though architecture\, using the act of inhabiting as process to investigate both the influence of the spaces that house us and how these spaces shape our notion of home and place. The artist uses memory\, touch and intimate histories to explore and understand her own immigrant experience\, the experiences of her father\, her family\, and the experience of the everyday shaped under the constant influence of architecture and history.\n\n \n\nThe installation project is itself inhabited by MY HOME ELECTRICAL a suite of programs curated by Lorena Peña Brita. MY HOME ELECTRICAL attempts to both create a deeper understanding and connection to the exhibition through dialogue and by creating tools for haptic perception that compliment and extend the work through empathy and shared personal histories. MY HOME ELECTRICAL invites the viewers to become participants\, working along with the artist and curator to explore the intersections between their own personal history and the structures that house them. Through these activities\, we hope to help develop your own awareness between body and structure and between your physical body and the spaces that you mentally inhabit. MY HOME ELECTRICAL includes a nightly program of films that fosters dialogue between the themes inherent in My Father’s side of Home but also opens potential pathways and/or wounds for new growth and development. These films create and explore small traumas between/within architectural spaces\, the urban environment\, the immigrant experience\, our everyday rituals\,  and between the voyeuristic nature of the other and ourselves.\n\n \n\nFilm Screenings:\n\n\n\nMONDAY 11/17 Arturo Ripstein\, LA TIA ALEJANDRA (1 hr. 27 minutes\, 1979) Spanish/no subtitles.\n\nFor a family with three children\, the trauma begins with the arrival of the husband’s elderly aunt into their home. The aunt\, a women with a haunting aura and unpredictable humor\, who increasingly secludes herself for extended periods of solitude within the family’s home\, becomes the suspect of the family’s recent stream of misfortunes.\n\n\nTUESDAY 11/18  George Melly\, THE SECRET LIFE OF EDWARD JAMES (55 minutes\, 1975)\n\nGeorge Melly’s 1975 documentary charts James’ eccentric life from his early days at West Dean in West Sussex to his lifelong friendships with Salvador Dali\, René Magritte and Leonora Carrington\, and finally to Xilitla\, his adopted home for the last forty years of his life.\n\n\nWEDNESDAY 11/19 MY FATHER\, THE GENIUS (84 minutes\, 2002)  Lucia Small\n\nWhen Glen Howard Small bequeaths his daughter the task of writing his biography\, she answers with a film about his precarious career and thorny private life. At 31\, Small\, founder of internationally acclaimed Southern California Institute of Architecture\, was a rising star. At 61\, he can barely pay his bills. The artist explores the tension between her father’s obligations to family and his life-long passion to “save the world” through architecture.\n\nTHURSDAY 11/20 KOOLHAAS HOUSELIFE (58 mins 2008) Ila Bêka & Louise Lemoine\n\nFRIDAY 11/21 HOME MOVIES from Mansión Mangolia.\n\nSATURDAY 11/22 Mining MoMA’s Documentary Archive: Communication and propaganda films for electronics\, from 1915.\n\n \n\nSATURDAY 11/22 THE 16 HOUR EXPERIENCE — Folding Structures\, Storytelling\, Tarot Readings\n\n\n\n\n			\n				\n			\n			\n				\n			\n			\n				\n			\n			\n				\n			\n			\n				\n			\n			\n				\n			\n			\n				\n			\n			\n				\n			\n			\n				\n			\n			\n				\n			\n			\n				\n			\n			\n				\n			\n			\n				\n			\n			\n				\n			\n			\n				\n			\n			\n				\n			\n			\n				\n			\n			\n				\n			\n			\n				\n			\n		\n\nCarmen Argote “16 Hour Experience” (images courtesy the artist) \n\nHRLA opens its doors for an all-night experience which invites the public to join the artist in a range of hands-on activities\, storytelling\, card readings\, and a prolonged collective inhabiting of the gallery after-hours. Once started\, the doors will shut and participants will commit to a long duration interaction between each other as a collective and develop through time a new understanding of the space\, each other\, and the work through the act of collective inhabiting. This intimate art experience is a rare opportunity to realize the fantasy of staying inside after the place closes. For more information about this sleepover\, email: info@humanresourcesla.com.\n\n \n\nFolding Structures\n\nArgote’s installation My Father’s Side of Home is an exercise in folding and unfolding the architectural layout of the spaces we inhabit. Argote works with manta\, a staple fabric with a rich tradition and ubiquitous presence in everyday Mexico. Argote’s Mantas are themselves drawings in plan that fold and unfold both physically and mentally. Folding Structures invites participants to collaborate with the artist in the folding\, ironing\, and pleating of fabric. Through the action of measuring\, planning\, and constructing cardboard structures that fold the fabric\, participants explore both through touch and through context architectural drawing\, sculpture and the process of ritual. Through the use of these folding structures\, participants are invited into an almost ritualistic experience that hopefully creates connections to memory through repetition and labor\, folding and unfolding ideas and possibilities and creating structures conducive to memory and shared histories.\n\n \n\nStorytelling\n\nParticipants are invited to share stories of their father’s side of home. Stories and memories will resurface as we experience long stretches of time together. If architecture is never idle and its effect is a constant\, then our prolonged exposure to the white cube will cause many stories to resurface and emerge in our shared inhabitance.\n\n \n\nTarot Readings\n\nDuring the tarot card reading\, the gallery and the work within it become a space to commune with psychic energy and for the  experimentation and access to our collective supernatural energy. Through an intuitive tarot card reading\, participants will be invited to narrate their own interpretation of the cards to fellow participants\, drawing on their own personal histories and experiences. Inherently an extension and a reflection of the self onto another\, the electric current that binds us through experience and shared history and shared space will undoubtedly activate the supernatural. Our collective selves will go beyond our own narrated interpretations and reveal electrical connection.\n\n \n\nKCET’s Artbound on Carmen Argote’s Project:\nhttp://www.kcet.org/arts/artbound/counties/los-angeles/carmen-argote-migrant-experience.html\n\nCarmen Argote’s Guadalajara Project Website:\nhttp://www.carmenargote.com/guadalajara/

SUMMARY:VOLUME presents Frank Bretschneider: Sinn + Form (Meaning + Form)
DESCRIPTION:Sinn + Form (Meaning + Form) \nThe project is based on the idea of a fundamentally chaotic world\, as we know from mathematical or physical theories and models (dynamical systems\, probability theory\, stochastic systems)\, and the constant attempt of man to recognize this world\, and to describe\, predict\, control\, and change it. Typical examples include mathematical finance\, statistics\, biostatistics\, pattern recognition\, or meteorology. \nMusically\, this system is simulated electronically using a modular synthesizer system. Various modules produce a constant flow of randomly generated data that modulate the decisive musical parameters (pitch\, note length\, volume\, tone). The musician / composer is attempting\, through an improvised but deliberate process of constant control and influence\, to transform this stream of events into a musically relevant system of chaos and order\, dynamics and statics\, content and form. \nThe visual performance is carried out through a software -generated correlation meter (goniometer)\, analogous to the Lissajous figure on an oscilloscope . \nAesthetically\, the project should recall the electronic music of the mid-20th century: studios such as the IRCAM in Paris\, the EMS Elektronmusikstudion\, Stockholm\, the WDR Studio for Electronic Music in Cologne\, or the Columbia-Princeton Electronic Music Center in New York\, as well as be reminiscent of the aesthetics of early attempts to visualize music using oscilloscopes. \nThe music was recorded with analog synthesizer systems (Buchla and Serge) at the EMS Elektronmusikstudion in Stockholm. \nFrank Bretschneider is a musician\, composer and video artist in Berlin. His work is known for precise sound placement\, complex\, interwoven rhythm structures and its minimal\, flowing approach. Bretschneider’s subtle and detailed music is echoed by his visuals: perfect translated realizations of the qualities found in music within visual phenomena. \nBretschneider (1956) was raised in Karl-Marx-Stadt (Chemnitz since 1990)\, where his aesthetic developed as he listened to pirate radio and smuggled Beastie Boys tapes in the former East Germany. After studying fine arts and inspired by science fiction radio plays and films he began experimenting with tape machines\, synthesizers\, and modified guitars in 1984\, as well as exploring the possibilities of exchange between visual art and music by various means such as film\, video and computer graphics.\nIn 1986\, after establishing his cassette label klangFarBe\, Bretschneider founded AG Geige\, a successful and influential East German underground band. Though limited to the East before the wall came down\, they were invited to perform across Germany and internationally after 1989 and released three albums before splitting in 1993.\nIn 1995\, Bretschneider and fellow AG Geige member Olaf Bender founded the Rastermusic record label which eventually merged with Carsten Nicolai’s noton to form raster-noton in 1999. \nVirons is the project of experimental sound and visual artist Nicholas Rossi. Working in Los Angeles\, performances often display the act of sonic exploration through static movement. The surrounding environment is unique to the progression of long form\, and prepared improvisational techniques. Performance elements include the granular process of field recordings\, magnetic tape manipulation\, and evolving architecture of concrète sounds by means of modern synthesis.

SUMMARY:Day of the Dead w/ Rubber O Cement\, Pulsating Cyst\, Suffering Luna\, Bandito Overlord hosted by Experimental Half Hour
DESCRIPTION:Imagine if you were in a world occupied by aliens and monsters. Where travel through space and time is mingled with one’s perception of reality. This is a world where as many things as possible are going on at once. Where the knobs on the cathode ray tube are being cranked by a diesel-powered monster truck. Where electronic machines are driven by zombie truck drivers in a race that has no finish line. \nJoin us for a live taping of experimental music and video curated by Obfuscated Records in collaboration with Experimental Half-Hour. The video of the performance can be found here. \nWith performances by:\nRubber (O) Cement (SF)\nPulsating Cyst\nSuffering Luna\nBandito Overlord \nMC Host Adam Barnhardt\nDJ Igor Amokian \nThere will be a raffle.\nGuests wearing costumes will get free raffle tix at the door. \nThis event curated by Adrian from Obfuscated Records is more Romeroesque than the traditional Day of the Dead celebration. The four acts do have much in common besides the ruckus they create on stage.
