Hello there, all!
I have a happy announcement… I will have 70 full minutes of my videos exhibited in the Clermont-Ferrand Film Festival! I’m really so proud to be a part of this amazing festival in France. I wish with all of my heart that I could be there as well, and I was invited to attend, and had planned on going as well, but fate ruled against it! But anyway, I’m very very grateful to them for showing so many of my works and invite everyone to check out this amazing festival!
Here’s where you can look at the cool program of the festival and find any information you require. The festival started yesterday and will continue through the the 6th of February!
Clermont-Ferrand Film Festival!
Well, I keep practicing and practicing with my voice improvisations. Actually, I don’t really think of it as practice, because it tends to be very creative and I often feel like I’m reaching into someplace strange and special. But I worry about bringing this to the ears of the public. I’m just not sure about the repetitiveness! By it’s very nature, voice-looping improvisations are repetitious. And there’s something very beautiful to me indeed in the strengthening of a single voice by it’s nearly identical, but ultimately different brothers. I like how the voice seems to be come almost mythologized by the doubling, triple-ing, quadruple-ing!… Each repetition of the voice brings it into a place that makes me feel so mystified. It reminds me of the faces I used to doodle all the time at school - they never had eye pupils. To me, adding the eye pupil brought an identity that weakened the image. I preferred these eyes to be anyones. And for me I get that same feeling when I double my own voice. It’s what I was drawn to in my Turn ghost cluster experiment as well.
Anyway, still I’m left wondering if these recordings will be interesting to anyone else!
Taratata appearanceHi there, folks
Last week I flew to France for a four short days to play on the French Music TV Show called Taratata. It was a bit strange to go to Europe for so short a time, but I think the show went well, and we’ve just gotten word on the times it will be playing on TV in France. So here’s that info:
March 17th on France 4
March 19th on France 2
Also there should be a video link after the 17th. I’ll supply that as soon as I have it.
