  2. Barn Owl – Heaviness of the Music

    December 6, 2010
    by Jeanne-Salome Rochat

    Thanks to Vincent Normand, I recently discovered the latest works of San Francisco duo Barn Owl. Give it a whirl!

    “At the beginning of all our shows I want to tell people not to get wrapped up with what we’re doing physically, but to listen with a different set of ears, to be open to what could happen just from listening to the music.” (…) “Drone can be used to answer questions that you couldn’t usually answer,” they say. “It’s a vehicle to enter the spiritual world from the physical and take something back.” (in Nada Mucho)

    The music enters your head and worms its way around, like acupuncture opening up energy channels.

  3. fire work

    by Maxime Buchi

    Saying that you don’t have an interest for fire arms is denial. Let’s indulge ourselves sometimes.

    today we tried:
    44. Taurus Raging Bull
    9mm Glock
    AK 47

    under the guidance of our friend David, who is also one of the most stunning tattoo astist I know. And completely self taught.


  4. JACK FERVER’s RUMBLE GHOST: next week at PS122

    December 4, 2010
    by Jeanne-Salome Rochat

    Ghosts can be scary, but the human psyche is scarier.

    Horror movies will never be as terrifying and shocking as the human psyche. They act as metaphors–scary stories that offer a release or escape from the more devastating twists and turns of an unquiet mind. Without ghosts to explain haunted houses, we are left with the pain sites of crumbling careers, failing marriages, abused children. In Rumble Ghost, as the flimsy membrane between an American horror movie classic and the fragility of the human condition deteriorates, the darkest place in the world is shown to be right up there: in your mind.

    Written and Choreographed by Jack Ferver.
    Performed by Benjamin Asriel, Reid Bartelme, Christian Coulson, Carlye Eckert, Jack Ferver, Michelle Mola, Breanna O’Mara.
    Dramaturgy by Joshua Lubin-Levy.
    Original Score by Calder Kusmierski Singer.
    Costumes by Reid Bartelme.

    DEC 8th-DEC 12th

  7. A (short notice) Dog’s Heart

    December 3, 2010
    by Eugenia Lapteva

    The joys of art.

    Russian satire on Saturday 4th December. Last chance to see Simon McBurney’s spectacular opera production of Mikhail Bulgakov’s 1926 novella ‘A Dog’s Heart’ at the English National Opera (composer Alexander Raskatov). Brilliant, bizarre, unsettling and totally absurd. I recommend a visit to this world. (Tickets for £11 at the Box Office at 10am or check for returns).
