Not a gig, but as good a place as any to put this:
Tony Oursler Tate Modern Saturday 16 February 2013 As American artist Tony Oursler’s phantasmagoric projection installation The Influence Machine occupies Tate Modern’s River Landscape, Tate Film presents a selection of Oursler’s single-channel videos. Best known for his multimedia installations often featuring ‘talking’ sculptures locked in existential quandaries, Oursler has been experimenting with video since the late 1970s, fusing strange dream landscapes and meandering psychodramatic narratives in a grotesque expressionistic theatre made entirely from recycled fragments of mediated experiences and pop-cultural tropes. Programme One (14.00 – 15.00) is a free screening presenting two works featuring artist, filmmaker and musician Tony Conrad, who collaborated with Oursler on the soundtrack for The Influence Machine. Sound Digressions in Seven Colors is the single-channel version of a multi-channel projection installation, in which looped recordings of seven performers are superimposed in an experiment with chance recombination. Synesthesia: Tony Conrad is one in a series of interviews with seminal figures working at the intersection of experimental music, performance and art, originally part of the Poetics Project, an ongoing collaboration with Mike Kelley aimed at creating an open archive on the cross-pollinations of art and music, previously presented as a multimedia installation. Programme Two (16.00 – 18.00) follows the development of Oursler’s visual language, from his characteristically low-tech set designs, inventively assembled from brightly painted cardboard and household objects, to the use of long fixed-camera shots and claustrophobic close-ups reminiscent of his projected doll pieces. Programme Two will be followed by a Q&A between James Lingwood (Co-Director, Artangel) and Iwona Blazwick (Director, Whitechapel Gallery). http://www.tate.org.uk/whats-on/tate...s/tony-oursler |

^^I figured at least you and one other person would be interested in that.
Hopefully I'll catch them at KRAAK myself, depending on things and stuff. |

I'm hoping Mattin and co. are going to play a lot of the new tracks from ''Buildings from Bilbao'' because what I've heard off it so far is killer stuff.

The choice of venue for this gig is weird. I live round the corner from it and never knew that Storm Bugs played their first gig in years there in July 2012! Damn.

I liked the new one, but their 2007-2008 stuff (i.e. the Sacrilege compilation) remains my favourite Bao by far. |

I've never heard the stuff on the Sacrilege compilation but I've played ''Dialectics of Shit'' quite a lot, at one point. Have you heard that Exquisite Corpse record he did with Kevin Failure, Loy ''Acapulco'' Fankbonner (who also still plays in The Chinese Restaurants, I think) and Margarida Garcia? Messy but in a good way.

Dialectics of Shit is actually on that Sacrilege compilation, together with Fuck Separation and a 7" of which the name escapes me right now.
I haven't heard Exquisite Corpse (wasn't even aware of it), but it sounds like something I need to check out. |

Weird that they're reforming without Nanjo, but also sort of poetic justice. |

Saw them last night in Rotterdam. They were alright but I wouldn't say you missed a whole lot. I had a feeling they have more in them than what comes out on stage and I had a similar feeling the last time they played here, about 4-5 years ago. Quote:

I was considering going to Swing Fest as well. I think I am looking forward to Container most. His live shows look great. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ta5w04BQAG0 |

Selvhenter
Cafe Oto Friday 19 April 2013 - 8pm Tickets : £7 adv / £8 on the door The Danish band SELVHENTER is quickly becoming one of the most exciting new experimental bands in Europe. Their unique sound combines the energy of rock with free improvisation and noise but also draws inspiration from the percussion music of Africa and Southeast Asia, and modern minimalist composition. In their music, the two drummers create strong polyrhythmic patterns while the horns and violin develop simple patterns of melody. In addition, both saxophone, trombone and violin often use effect pedals to distort and manipulate their sounds. The result is beautiful, aggressive and good for dancing. SELVHENTER's live concerts are always curious, focused and full of energy. SELVHENTER is: Sonja LaBianca (saxophone), Maria Bertel (trombone), Maria Diekmann (violin), Jaleh Negari (drums) and Anja Jacobsen (drums). The five members of the band come from some of the interesting bands on the Copenhagen experimental music scene, such as Pinkunoizu, Havens Fugle, Chimes & Bells, Gud Er Kvinde, Valby Vokalgruppe, Kirsten Ketsjer and Choir Of Young Believers. SELVHENTER was formed in 2007 as a trio of violin, saxophone and trombone. In 2008 they expanded with two drummers. The band released their first full length album in 2012 under the title “Frk. B. Fricka”. It was produced by legendary guitarist and film music composer Peter Peter and was nominated for the Nordic Music Prize 2012. In 2010, the members of SELVHENTER founded the art collective and record label EGET VÆRELSE (a room of one's own) – a platform for the projects they create together or individually. www.egetvaerelse.dk Video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature...&v=5wtPR12u3AE |

I got the impression that there isn't a single person in Japan that Nanjo hasn't pissed off, mainly due to his releasing loads of people's music on La Musica without asking them first and without paying them. The band now seems to be called "Makoto Kawabata's Mainliner", which I can't say I'm very keen on. Anyway, here's a photo. |

Alexander Tucker curates an evening at Cafe Oto and commemorates it with a special piece of artwork that will be available as a screen print on the night. Alexander will also perform with Ashtray Navigations.
