Footage from the installation/show at The Lost Horse Gallery in Iceland.

I’m playing at the Silent Barn on November 21. This is a show put on by Scrapcycle so it should be a good one! All hand made instruments.

I added a few inputs to my sequencer that allow you to advance the playback one step at a time using external clock sources. I connected two independent clocks to the sequencer. One is telling it to go forward the other is telling it to go backwards. As i adjust the two clocks you can see them fight for control of the sequence. Pretty simple but cool effect.

I’m performing at Vanishing Point in Brooklyn at 11pm

I’m showing some drawings at ABCnoRio. The opening is at 7pm
Below is the flier released by curator Joyce Manalo

“Common Denominator” is a group show that examines society’s symbiotic relationships with machines. Three artists subversively eschew traditional ways of making art by inventing devices that exemplify duality as medium and process. Their works present a profound use of a machine-s intended use by expanding upon its repetition and predetermined mechanisms. This modus operandi of experimenting and altering linear form, monochromatic color and 1 bit sound provides autonomy that is traceable to discerning compositions.

I’ll be showing some work at the Lost Horse Gallery in Reykjavik as part of the Sequences festival from October 12th-17th. I’ll be in the gallery installing from the 5th till the 12th. Stop by and say hi!
Back in NYC I’ll be playing at Monkey Town with noise master power house Non Horse on October 26th. Four projection screens. Sound scape immersion. Gourmet food. 50 person capacity…. so demand tickets now.
They’re showing the movie Mind Game on September 29th and 30th. It’s FREE (with a $10 minimum for drinks or food). This is a totally great movie. Light, crazy, trippy, fun and deep all at once. recommended by me.
I’ll also be showing drawings and other 2D artwork at ABCnoRio in November. exact date TBA.

All sounds are generated by the modular synth (right) and two heavily modified barbie karaoke machines which have been mounted into a single housing (top left).

The synth is feeding through and being processed by one of the barbies. The second barbie is generating it’s own sounds. Both barbies are being controlled by the step sequencer (bottom left).
The synth is being controlled by the pulse divider (bottom center) and melody sequencer (top right).

All three sequencers are sync’d together using a common clock signal.

The first batch of 25 is ready to go and I’m taking orders.
