POSTER

Just finished an electronic score in collaboration with Kevin Robinson from KREation for the first in a series of videos in Jacolby Satterwhite’s ‘Drawing Desire’ project. The video will be showing at Harvestworks on Broadway, New York from 7-9pm. Jacolby Satterwhite is a great video and performance artist whose work can at once be fun and disturbing. If you’re in New York on the 23rd of September, you should go check it out.

Description of ‘Drawing Desire’ taken from the Harvestworks website:

New York City-based multi-media artist Jacolby Satterwhite has created a new work called Drawing Desire,  a multimedia video project based on his mother’s drawings. His mother’s battle with schizophrenia has influenced her to create songs and thousands of schematic drawings/inventions influenced by capitalist desires and American material culture.

…The work combines a narrative between performance, drawing, and 3D animation. The series of 4 videos are loosely based on the dense narrative structure of Hieronymous Bosch “Garden of Earthly delights landscape.

“Mucositis”, a film by Jahcobie Cosom which I wrote music for, will be screening at PACT Zollverein in Essen, Germany as part of CalArts Plays Itself.

SICPP’s 10-hour long marathon concert, aptly named the Iditarod, took place from June 25 4pm to June 26 at 2am. It was definitely one of the most amazing musical experiences I’ve had. The concert was reviewed in The Boston Globe and my performance of Tristan Murail’s “Transsahara Express” with bassoonist Chris Watford got a mention in the article:

“The expanded landscape, perhaps, reflected the presence of French composer Tristan Murail, in residence at SICPP this summer, with five works on Saturday’s bill. Murail likes to get inside musical sound, dismantling it and unhurriedly regarding the components. But he does so with sensual precision, amply evident from 1974’s “Transsahara Express,’’ dark, soft daubs given smooth varnish by bassoonist Christopher Watford and pianist Ingrid Lee…”

Pretty cool.
