Wind Up Bird

concentrated delivery pitch bending and beating of a sine wave. - joe grimm moves sound with his mind. actually more with controlled singing of tones that throw a static sine wave off into and around the room and people. flute, singing, sampling, delays and digital degradation of samples over time. gradual, meditative.. complex shattering of sound.

Lucky Dragons

tender dancing, bobbing, concentrated movement, invented gesture, delicate, conscious, symbolic. Luke Fischbeck dancing mockingly mouths prerecorded samples. Playfully tampers with the mic possibly recording elements. puts new meaning to performance (actually singing?, lip syncing, not singing..). implied movements. tenderly engages the audience before they themselves become part of the performance. skin contact, wire diodes. fingers, touching. touch two people holding the wire diodes and the sound will flutter into magical bliss. figuring out who's touch is making what sound is the engaging mystery.


both Joe and Luke have MFAs in Music Composition and are aspiring PHds in their field.

the Toronto show.

Tikiroom @ Tranzac
not normally used for shows. fireplace, carpet, candle light, glowing. close, intimate. drawn in and magical. bonds were formed with everyone in the room.

Wyrd Visions aka Colin Bergh

repetitive notes, concentrated changes, flow and improv w/ guest guitarist Paul Mortimercy. lulled singing.

Montreal:

Esperanza.

unfortunate breaking in to Lucky Dragon's car prior to the show. glass, shatter, heart panic. assholes.

the show goes on.

Magali Babin, electro noise acoustic performance. click, scratch and abrasion. flood and wash of noise.

documentation minimal.

moments will be remembered as a feeling.

Toronto



Montreal




car rides, snacks, new friends, canadian landscapes (epic luminous rain clouds, mist, and falling rain, light dispersal), slumber parties.

posi diy creativity.
