Jeff Kaiser: Trumpet and electronics
Jason Ponce: Video artist
Jason Ponce is a multimedia artist, musician, interactive arts researcher and educator. His musical practices embrace composition, electroacoustics, improvisation, noise, drone, and microsound. Jason’s sound and video installations have been produced internationally and highlight the many intersections between art and science, especially interactivity, group dynamics, gesture and cognition. Recent work has focused on developing flexible multimedia performance applications that extend realtime interactivity to contemporary opera and experimental theater. He holds advanced degrees from UC San Diego where he studied computer music with Miller Puckette, Richard F. Moore, Philippe Manoury and Tom Erbe. Over the years Jason has worked closely with an eclectic array of contemporary artists and orgs including Pauline Oliveros, JG Thirwell, Pamela Z, Katharina Rosenberger, Heiko Kalmbach, Mark Dresser, James Ilgenfritz, Ted Hearne, Sidereal Labs, Opera Cabal, The International Contemporary Ensemble, Ensemble Sospeso and many others.

Michael Vlatkovich~Trombone
Skaller/Holt Duo~ Philip Skaller & Danny Holt~pianos
Skaller/Holt Duo celebrate the release of their first CD, Music of Mark Dresser (pfMENTUM 062). Skaller/Holt Duo explores the intersection of composition and improvisation with an obsessive and virtuosic deconstruction of time: speed, cycles, density and rates of flow, acceleration, deceleration, augmentation, diminution, rhythm, groove, chaos. Bridging the worlds of contemporary classical music and experimental jazz, these two fiery pianists take the music of Mark Dresser as a starting point for their ambitious, imaginative, and playful musical adventures for two pianos.

Kris Tiner is a California-based trumpet player, composer, and improviser. His music has been described as “extraordinarily inventive” (Signal to Noise Magazine), and capable of turning “barbed wire to beauty” (LA Weekly), with a “folksy sort of lyricism that one does not usually find in avant-jazz.” (JazzReview.com). Kris has performed at concert venues and festivals throughout North America and abroad, and he appears on over 40 recordings for Clean Feed, pfMENTUM, Nine Winds, and other labels. Kris has received awards from ASCAP, the American Composers Forum, Chamber Music America, the International Association for Jazz Education, and the John F. Kennedy Center’s Jazz Ahead program. His primary musical projects include the Empty Cage Quartet and Tin/Bag with NYC guitarist Mike Baggetta. Kris is a regular member of the Industrial Jazz Group and a founding member of the Los Angeles Trumpet Quartet, and he has collaborated with Vinny Golia, Wadada Leo Smith, Leroy Jenkins, Donald Robinson, Gerry Hemingway, Nels Cline, Mary Oliver, Ken Filiano, Kraig Grady, Tatsuya Nakatani, Jeff Kaiser, G.E. Stinson, Alicia Mangan, Lukas Ligeti and many others. Kris holds an MFA in African-American Improvisational Music from California Institute of the Arts and a BA in Music from CSU Bakersfield. He has lectured on both music and visual art, and currently teaches courses in jazz and popular music at Bakersfield College.
Allen D. Glass II is an international film artist, psychologist, musicologist, archivist, chemical dependency specialist, hallucinaturalist and member of the Photo Archive Group which preserves the American history of genocide in Southeast Asia. His films and photographs have been exhibited by The British Film Institute, The Museum of Modern Art, Anthology Film Archives, Festival International Nouveau Cinéma Nouveau Medias Montréal, The International Experimental Cinema Exposition, Black Maria Film Festival and the international film festivals of London, Melbourne, Tehran, Toronto, Tokyo and Luxembourg among others. He has collaborated extensively with Wadada Leo Smith, Revolutionary Ensemble and Empty Cage Quartet. Poet Dorothea Grossman once wrote this text about his films: “Humankind in the unfamiliar landscape, composing itself rhythmically and even lovingly into poetry. Nature as mammal music. The Life Dance. Foreign smells. And silences that are, of course, their own music.” Allen D. Glass II was born in Indiana and currently lives in Elysian Park.

Jeff Kaiser is a musician and the founder of pfMENTUM, a record label dedicated
to the documentation of new music in California. He is a composer, performer
and programmer, who performs regularly in the United States and abroad. He
is currently living and working in San Diego on a music PhD in Critical Studies
and Experimental Practices at UCSD.
Andrew Pask is a New Zealand born musician
and audio/video programmer. He worked for years as a professional musician
throughout Asia and New Zealand before
moving to Los Angeles in 1999. He performs regularly in Los Angeles in the
new music scene. At the same time, he has a career as a computer programmer,
working for Cycling 74, a California corporation dedicated to creating advanced
audiovisual computer software.
We see ourselves as inspired by Los Angeles
legends John Carter (clarinet) and Bobby Bradford (cornet), We are trying to
carry
on and pay homage to this
great duo, and to the music they were part of, and at the same time take
the music to a unique space by incorporating newly designed audio and video
software.
This
performance will be part of the premier tour of our new intermedia work “Helicopter.”
This project is part of our ongoing exploration of improvisational musical
space and the interaction of acoustic instruments with live processing by software
of our own design. This will be the fourth work in the series. The first was
a collection of duo performances culminating in our first album. The second
was “The Choir Boys with strings,” which included Steuart Liebig,
(Los Angeles based contrabass guitarist) and G.E. Stinson (Los Angeles based
electric guitarist). The third was an interactive work with the 1929 avant-garde
film, “Tusalava,” by New Zealander Len Lye. This was performed in
Los Angeles, Ventura, and was featured at the University of Minneapolis’ Spark
Festival of Electronic Music in 2007.
This new work, “Helicopter,” like
our “Tusalava,” will
be continuing our exploration of music and video software in an improvisatory
environment.
Based on the idea of memory and expectation, the moment of take-off is a point
in time we expand on, that the sounds and sights which are present at the moment
the machine becomes light enough to lift off are explored and stretched out.
The point of take-off is now, no longer a moment, but an expanded period of
time. Our musical focus in this piece is this moment of lightness, or of effort,
or of resolution, or commencement, or all of it at the same time…

The Choir Boys presents
”
Tusalava” – a film by Len Lye.
With a fresh new soundtrack conjured for
the occasion featuring trumpets, saxophones, clarinets and computerized mayhem.
Music and DSP programming by Jeff Kaiser and Andrew Pask.
Additional video programming by Andrew Pask.
Tusalava is a film from 1929 by
Len Lye. The film presents a number of graphical ideas based on Len Lye’s interest
in Aboriginal and Pacific Art. It originally
had a score, but due to the limitations of film technology when the film
was made the score was never recorded, and was played live in performance
with
the film.
In fact the score for Tusalava was lost, and
we now have no idea what it might have sounded like.
The Choir Boys, aka Jeff Kaiser and Andrew
Pask, will present their version of the score.
It can be safely said that although we have
no idea what the original score sounded like, we can be fairly sure that it
wouldn’t have sounded
anything
quite like this.
Also:
Andrew Pask will perform Richard Dudas’ Prelude for Clarinet and Computer
Program
Notes from composer Richard Dudas:
Prelude for Clarinet and Computer is the second in a series of interactive
pieces for solo wind instrument with live computer processing. The piece
explores (and blurs) the fine line between the sound of the live clarinet
and the computer
processed clarinet sound by the use of multiphonics in the clarinet part.
The computer is also used to fill in the “missing” even harmonic partials
in the clarinet’s odd-harmonic sound spectrum, morphing its sound into
one resembling a saxophone. The piece was written for clarinetist Peter Furniss
who premiered it on a concert of music for clarinet and live electronics
at the Forum Neues Musiktheater in Stuttgart, Germany in April of 2006.
Performed by Andrew Pask – clarinet
Bios:
Richard Dudas holds degrees in Music Composition from The Peabody Conservatory
of the Johns Hopkins University and The University of California, Berkeley,
and has been actively invloved with computer music since the late 1980s.
From 1996 to 1998 he taught computer music courses at the musical research
center
IRCAM in Paris, France, and since 1999 has been working for Cycling ’74,
Inc., developing the musical software programming environment, Max/MSP. In
the Spring of 2002 he was a visiting lecturer in computer music at The State
University of New York at Buffalo, and has been a regular lecturer at the “Max/MSP
Nightschool” summer workshops in Berkeley, California, and at the Fourm
Neuesmusiktheater Max/MSP/Jitter workshops in Stuttgart, Germany. His compositions
using technology have been performed in the U.S.A., the U.K., France, Monaco,
Germany and Korea.
The Choir Boys have performed for shell-shocked
audiences all over the United States and in the United Kingdom at festivals,
universities,
nightclubs,
art galleries, parking garages, and anywhere else that will allow them
to break
out their laptops and horns (and a few places that wouldn’t allow them).

The late Allen Ginsberg called Grossman’s poetry, “clear, odd, personal,
funny or wild-weird, curious and lucid.” Vlatkovich, who has worked with
Peggy Lee, Brian Setzer, Vinny Golia and others, brings a seasoned improvisational
dynamic to the duo. The final set will feature the first ever electro-acoustic
duo performance by Bakersfield trumpeter Kris Tiner with Ventura trumpeter
Jeff Kaiser. Both musicians will be incorporating laptop computers running
state-of-the-art audio processing software. $5 admission includes free refreshments,
all ages are welcome. Seating is limited. Doors
open at 7 p.m., music begins at 7:30.

PLUS OPENING SET BY
JEFF KAISER & JIM CONNOLLY
Center Stage Theater
In the Paseo Nuevo
Santa Barbara, CA
For directions:
http://www.centerstagetheater.org/
For the first time, esteemed New York City
guitarist Ben Monder brings his trio to California for a series of concerts
and workshops
this September. Monder
is one of the most distinguished and cutting-edge guitarists today, creating
mind-bending harmonic passages never before heard on six strings. He improvises
fluid melodic lines on par with the most skilled woodwind players’ melodies,
and his compositions are mesmerizing, introspective, and harmonically adventurous.
”
Ben Monder has played nearly unsurpassable jazz guitar with any number of actual
jazz groups. But what he plays with his own group comes from another planet.” –Ben
Ratliff, New York Times.

Jeff Kaiser, Noah Phillips and
Zachary Watkins perform a call and response with the 315 Poets.
Noah Phillips began playing guitar in Los
Angeles for the exact same reasons all teenage males desire to play loud music.
During his formative years Phillips decided that it would be a good idea to
attend high school anywhere on earth that wasn’t Los Angeles’ beautifully
suburban San Fernando Valley. While living in the dorms of a boarding school
on the island of Hawaii Phillips became interested in the masterful guitar
orchestrations of early Pink Floyd records. Phillips then began to learn the
music of Jimi Hendrix, a whole bunch of blues guys, the music of the Hawaiian
Islands, the timeless music of Bob Marley, and other popular guitar players
from the 1960s, ’70s, ’80s, and ’90s. While attending the University of Southern
California Phillips studied “Jazz” with a host of great guitar
players, the most influential of which being Joe Diorio. After graduating college
Phillips became involved with the new and improvised music community of Los
Angeles. Since moving to Oakland, Phillips has started to experiment with and
perform using prepared electric and acoustic guitar, analog electronics, Congolese
Drumming, no-input feedback loops, and meager song writing. Noah Phillips is
currently studying guitar, composition, and electronic music with Fred Frith
in pursuit of a MFA at Mills College.
Zachary Watkins studied composition with
Janice Giteck, Jarrad Powell, Robin Holcomb and Jovino Santos Neto at Cornish
College and has also studied with Chris Brown, Fred Frith and Alvin Curran
while pursuing an MFA in Electronic Music and Recording Media from Mills College.
As a recording engineer, Zachary has worked with composer James Tenney, free
jazz trio “Floss” on Monktail Records, Paul Rutherford, Harris Eisenstadt,
poet Stephen Ratcliffe as well as his own compositions. He has collaborated
with choreographer Becca Levy and Butoh choreographer Christina Braun on works
performed at the South Pasadena High Performing Arts Center and the Temescal
Arts Center in Oakland, CA. A recent collaboration with choreographer Lola
A. Katie was premiered on March 10th at the Mills Dance Thesis presentations.
Zachary was awarded a Mills Research Grant that funded the performance of the
multimedia work L.C.S.L. involving video, SuperCollider generated synthesis,
string bass, prepared piano and percussion. Zachary was also recently awarded
the Paul Merrtit Henry Prize for Composition for his piece Suite for String
Quartet. The Odeon String Quartet and the Seattle Chamber Players have performed
his compositions. A spring of 2004 commission by clarinetist Beth Fleenor yielded
the new work (206)culture, scored for tape, b flat bass clarinet, prepared
piano and maracas. A Cornish College of the Arts commission yielded the new
work Aircraft Without Life For Floss With Lil’Ray and Joe Gray premiered on
March 4, 2006. Zachary is currently working on a new work commissioned by TrioMetrik.
(http://www.beamfoundation.org/) As a performer he has played prepared piano
and electronics in I, Norton, a multimedia opera by composer Gino Robair. He
also appears on the studio recording of I, Norton. Zachary recently performed
interactive electronics as part of the Jon Rose residency concert at Mills
College. His most recent sound art work entitled Designed Obsolescence, “spoke
as a metaphor for the breakdown of the dream of technology and the myth of
our society’s permanence,” review by Susan Noyes Platt in the Summer
05 issue of ARTLIES. The Walrus Press and Birds & Whistles have published
his compositions. Artlies Article: (http://www.artlies.org/article.php?id=1220&issue=46&s=1)
