a musical minimum festival
after Dog Star Orchestra 5
for Taylan Susam
program a festival or event of experimental music and/or performance that consists only of works with indeterminate elements that might permit extremely minimal realizations. then, perform the most minimal realization of each of the works, holding fast to the instructions and minimums presented within each score, and not taking into consideration any additional external specifications, recommendations or preferences of the composer or other interested parties. additionally, feel free to choose works you're interested in, but do not program for variety – in the end, several (or all) of the works may in fact be silent, or barely present, or may nearly (or exactly) resemble one another.
presented by Adam Overton, the evening before his birthday - come celebrate!

a note about James Saunder’s piece:
imperfections on the surface are occasionally apparent (2009) is for ten players, each with a coffee cup and five different surfaces. Players draw their cup across their surfaces as a means of sounding them, through a sequence of timed actions. The piece is part of the series divisions that could be autonomous but that comprise the whole (2009- ) and was written for Michael Pisaro. (-James Saunders)

Basshaters - Heule Dryer Duo - percussion and double bass improvisation
with Ezra Buchla and perhaps others
Basshaters is a drum and double bass duo bridging the gap between acoustic free improv and electronic noise. Fascinated by the physicality of their instruments, Basshaters enjoys working with a multitude of sounds and techniques exploiting the vast possibilities available for activating large resonant bodies. The duo seeks directness and intensity in execution. Subtleties emerge from the bold statement of simple ideas.
In addition to Basshaters, Dryer & Heule have a trio with clarinetist Jacob Lindsay, which just released its debut album on Lisbon's Creative Sources. This unconventional rhythm section also has a trio CD with saxophonist Jack Wright, and has performed live with diverse musicians such as Michel Doneda, C Spencer Yeh, Liz Allbee, Sarah Bernat (16 Bitch Pile-Up), Ava Mendoza (Mute Socialite), and Kanoko Nishi. Heule is also active with his brutal improv duo, Ettrick, and has toured the US and Europe with Gowns. Tony Dryer has toured extensively with rock groups including the Flying Luttenbachers and Usurp Synapse.

with 6:30 p.m. to 7:30 p.m. partial reading by Eric km Clark of Moby Dick, beginning on chapter 9
An evening of new work by Los Angeles based film- and video-maker, Madison Brookshire. Using meditative shots that rely on minutae of light and sound to convey the music of the city, Brookshire's most recent videos focus on the act of recording itself. His work has been described as "a quiet but grand record of the contemporary American landscape (Andy Ditzler)."
The evening will include a live, musical performance accompanying OPENING (2007); as well as the Los Angeles premiers of FALLING (2008); VERMONT (2008); MELROSE (2008); NORMAL (2008); and A SHOUT IN THE STREET (2005)
“[OPENING] is attentive to small movements—cars in the distance, a herd of sheep. Austere but intensely focused compositions suggest that mindful observation can render ordinary sights meaningful.”
