Kate Armstrong and Michael Tippett will launch their new net art collaboration Grafik Dynamo\, a 2004-2005 commi ssion for Turbulence.\n\nGrafik Dynamo is a net art work that loads live images from blogs and news sources on the web into a live action comic strip. The images are accompanied by narrative fragments that are dynami cally loaded into speech and thought bubbles and randomly displayed. Ani mating the comic strip using dynamic web content opens up the genre in a new way: Together\, the images and narrative serve to create a strange\ , dislocated notion of sense and expectation in the reader\, as they are sometimes at odds with each other\, sometimes perfectly in sync\, and a lways moving and changing. The work takes an experimental approach to op en ended narrative\, positing a new hybrid between the flow of data anim ating the work and the formal perameter that comprises its structure.\n\ nKate Armstrong\nKate Armstrong is a new media artist and writer who has lived and worked in Canada\, France\, Japan\, Scotland\, and the United States. Her work focuses on the creation of experimental narrative form s\, particularly works in which poetics are inserted within the function al framework of computer programs\, and performative pieces in which com puter functionality is merged with physical space. She has worked with a variety of forms including short films\, theatre\, essays\, net art\, p erformative network events\, psychogeography and installation.\n\nArmstr ong was artist in residence at the Techlab at the Surrey Art Gallery and received a New Media Production Grant from the Canada Council in 2003. She is a recipient of a 2004-2005 commission of New Radio and Performing Arts\, Inc.\, for Turbulence\, which was made possible with funding fro m the Andy Warhol Foundation for the Visual Arts. Her artwork has been e xhibited internationally. Armstrong curates Upgrade 2.0 at the Western F ront in conjunction with Upgrade in New York\, and runs the media arts o rganization Special Airplane. She has written for P.S 1/MoMA\, the Palm Beach Institute of Contemporary Art\, TrAce\, Year Zero One\, and The Th ing\, as well as for catalogue publications. Her first book\, Crisis & R epetition: Essays on Art and Culture\, was published in 2002.\n\nMichael Tippett\nMichael Tippett has a decade of experience creating and managi ng technology businesses. With expertise in design\, namespace\, distrib uted & mobile media and wireless technology\, Tippett's media background is in pioneering new forms of networked content. His newest venture\, N owPublic.com\, uses emerging technologies like camera phones\, digital c ameras\, blogging tools and RSS standards to change the way news is crea ted and distributed. NowPublic.com lets people build their own news. Blo ggers can use their blogs to automatically dispatch photographers to the site of a news story anywhere in the world. At the same time\, photogra phers can distribute\, manage and sell their media. News readers can see what members are reporting on and see how this is reflected elsewhere o n the web and in the media. Content that passes through NowPublic is sys tematically organized and accessible into multiple and specific RSS feed s and is fed back into the blogosphere. NowPublic can be thought of as \ "reality news\" - providing a hub for citizen reporting and for viewing world events though the prism of an alternate\, distributed\, real time media.\n \nURLS:\nhttp://www.nowpublic.com\nhttp://www.turbulence.org\nh ttp://www.katearmstrong.com\n \nTuesday\, February 15th at 730 pm\nWeste rn Front\n303 East 8th Avenue\nVancouver\, Canada\n \nSee you there!\n \ nKate Armstrong DURATION:PT1H END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Vancouver:20070112T140000 DTEND;TZID=America/Vancouver:20070112T153000 SUMMARY:SIAT Colloquium - Eric Zimmerman UID:7B882FC0-9D83-11DB-888A-000D933194E0-858481F0-5C2C-4F75-90B3-01CA743 8446C SEQUENCE:3 DTSTAMP:20070112T033425Z DESCRIPTION:\n SIAT Research Colloquium\n Eric Zimmerman\n Friday\, January 12\n 2 PM - 3:30 PM\n Room 3280 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;VALUE=DATE:20060403 LOCATION:SAG SUMMARY:JUDY INSTALL UID:B2C35E96-B871-11DA-962A-000D933194E0-858481F0-5C2C-4F75-90B3-01CA743 8446C DTSTAMP:20060321T002903Z SEQUENCE:1 DURATION:P1D END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Vancouver:20060327T101000 SUMMARY:DR BUS 10:10 UID:5C8D5C66-B86E-11DA-962A-000D933194E0-858481F0-5C2C-4F75-90B3-01CA743 8446C SEQUENCE:3 DTSTAMP:20060321T000524Z DURATION:PT1H END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT LOCATION:The University of British Columbia\nMorris and Helen Belkin Art Gallery\n1825 Main Mall DTSTAMP:20080123T013235Z UID:14BAF6C1-C27D-470D-9426-F2791F810649-858481F0-5C2C-4F75-90B3-01CA743 8446C SEQUENCE:9 URL;VALUE=URI:http://www.belkin.ubc.ca DTSTART;TZID=America/Vancouver:20080124T200000 SUMMARY:Opning: EXPONENTIAL FUTURE\n DTEND;TZID=America/Vancouver:20080124T220000 DESCRIPTION:Tim Lee\, Alex Morrison\, Isabelle Pauwels\, Kevin Schmidt\, Mark Soo\, Corin Sworn\, Althea Thauberger\, Elizabeth Zvonar\n\n18 Jan uary - 27 April\, 2008\nOpening reception: Thursday January 24\, 8 to 10 pm\n\n\nThe University of British Columbia\nMorris and Helen Belkin Art Gallery\n1825 Main Mall\, \nVancouver\, BC.

Over the last three\ndecades Feldmann has had a profound influence on the shape of contemporary\nconceptual art and photography. With this exhibition\, curated by Vancouver\nartist Roy Arden\, the CA G introduces local audiences to the breadth of\nFeldmann’s photographic work presenting a selection of his signature\nbookworks\, printed multip les and photographic works. This array of work\,\nspanning from the mid -seventies to now\, contextualizes Feldmann’s ambitious\nphotographic se ries 100 Years. 101 black and white portraits of people\nranging in age from 8 months to 100 years old is the centerpiece of this\nexhibition. In Arden’s words\, “the photographs ignore any social\ndifferences and assert only that which cannot be argued: that we are born\,\nwe live\, w e die.” \n \nOn the occasion of this exhibition\, the Contemporary Art Gallery will\nrelease Birgit\, a new limited edition bookwork by Feldman n. The\npublication is comprised of 72 successive colour snapshots of a woman\napplying her make-up from beginning to end\; the book is accomp anied by a\ncomprehensive text by Arden.

Since 2003\, the artist has routinely detoure d from his day-to-day\ntravels to gather the material for Production Pos tings\, an on-going\nproject. Kliegel has compiled a vast collection o f location signs used by\nfilm and television production companies to di rect crew and extras to film\nshoots. Each production uses a cryptic co de to identify itself\, but the\ngeneral design and style of these brigh tly coloured signs are formulaic and\na ubiquitous part of Vancouver’s u rban landscape. Kliegel will fill the\nContemporary Art Gallery’s twelve street level windows with over three\nhundred of these signs\, creating a vibrant spectacle that is reminiscent of\nthe industry’s commonplace\ , but excessive and showy presence in the city. \nProduction Postings wi ll be on display at the Contemporary Art Gallery from\nJune 8th to Augus t 20th\, 2006.\n \nThe Contemporary Art Gallery is generously supported by The Canada Council\nfor the Arts\, The Province of British Columbia a nd The BC Arts Council\, The\nCity of Vancouver\, our members\, donors a nd volunteers.

Time Flies (inspired by Derek Bailey’s Company Week) serves as a summit meeting for some of the most creative improvisers from Canada and around the world. \n\nBritish improviser John Butcher is a saxophone master. He has create d a vocabulary which can accommodate any number of disparate musical con cepts ranging through free improvisation\, structured pieces\, multi-tra cked saxophone pieces\, and works with live electronics\, amplification\ , and feedback. Throughout the ’90s\, John played in many contexts: with singer Phil Minton\, in an electro-acoustic duo with violinist Phil Dur rant\, and with the Austrian contemporary-composition quartet Polwechsel . Other partners have included Gerry Hemingway\, Steve Beresford\, and n o-input mixing-board specialist Toshimaru Nakamura.\n\nDutch pianist / c omposer Cor Fuhler plies the keyboard with a focused energy that blends wacked-out humour\, an open sensibility to free improvisation\, and a wi cked sense of swing. In an effort to extend the sound possibilities of t he piano\, he rarely plays without augmentation from various preparatory tools. Cor works in various configurations\, from his trio with drummer Han Bennink and bassist Wilbert de Joode\, to his large ensemble Corkes tra\, to collaborations with George Lewis\, Michael Moore\, and Tobias D elius.\n\nSeattle-based violinist Eyvind Kang has been connected with th e dynamic Northwest music scene since 1995. During this time he’s been h eard on over 50 recordings\, collaborating with the likes of Bill Frisel l\, Sun City Girls\, Laurie Anderson\, Wayne Horvitz\, and John Zorn. A powerful performer\, Kang’s solo recordings blend molten improvisations with a kaleidoscope of dissonant colours. Virginal Co-Ordinates (Ipecac) is Kang’s sixth record—an excursion into minimalist territory with nods to Terry Riley and Tony Conrad.\n\nBritish-born Phil Minton is consider ed one of the world’s greatest vocal performers. Guardian jazz critic Jo hn Fordham: “He is a brilliant juggler of pure sound when working with f ree-improvising players…Minton’s range is astonishing—from a sustained r esonant baritone all the way from the Welsh valley traditions of his chi ldhood to a dazzling fire-work display of percussive sounds\, furious fa lsetto stutterings\, exclamations\, pleadings\, demands.” Minton’s abstr act expressionist sonic creations have been heard with a range of artist s including Mike Westbrook\, Fred Frith\, Roger Turner\, George Lewis\, and John Zorn.\n\nDanish guitarist Hasse Poulsen is among the most creat ive and inventive young improvisers in Europe. Dividing his time between Paris and Copenhagen\, he plays with Sound of Choice (Fredrik Lundin\, Lars Juul)\; Louis Sclavis on Napoli’s Walls\; Louis Moholo\; Edouard Pe rraud\; and an engaging trio with Joelle Leandre and François Houle. He has developed a unique way of playing the guitar\, incorporating prepara tions as well as a mix of both traditional and alternative techniques.\n \nToronto-born drummer / composer Harris Eisenstadt works in a wide vari ety of musical settings. Eisenstadt defies categorization as an artist: from ad hoc improvised music groups with renowned musicians such as Nels Cline\, Sam Rivers\, and Paul Rutherford\, he also plays in projects wi th musicians as varied as Bobby Bradford and Bernie Worell\; large ensem bles led by Vinny Golia\, Barry Guy\, and Yusef Lateef\; and world music bands with traditional musicians from Bali\, Gambia\, Morocco\, and Sen egal. The drummer has released five albums as a leader including the rec ent The Soul and Gone (482 Music).\n\nVancouver cellist Peggy Lee is a p illar in the city’s music community. She’s brought her wide-ranging skil ls as an improviser\, composer\, and new music practitioner to groups li ke Talking Pictures\, the contemporary classical ensemble Standing Wave\ , the Tony Wilson Septet\, and projects by singer-songwriter Veda Hille. As a leader of her own band she’s released three CDs featuring original compositions that explore the intriguing terrain between the melodic an d the abstract. She tours and records with Dave Douglas\, Wayne Horvitz\ , and Miya Masaoka.\n\nBassist Torsten Müller has made a huge contributi on to Vancouver’s improvised music community since arriving from Germany some six years ago. A gifted player\, he expands the parameters of his instrument through extended techniques. Müller has worked with trombonis t Gunter Christmann since the late ’70s and is a fixture at Vancouver’s Jazz Festival collaborating with the likes of Fred Lonberg-Holm\, Lori F reedman\, Kjell Nordeson\, and Chris Speed.\n\nThanks to:\nBritish Counc il\nRoyal Netherlands Embassy-Ottawa\nFonds Dijkdoorbraak\nDanish Jazz F ederation END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT LOCATION:1618 East 10th Ave (at Commercial Drive) DTSTAMP:20060804T022245Z UID:F81DCE4C-235F-11DB-8924-000D933194E0-858481F0-5C2C-4F75-90B3-01CA743 8446C SEQUENCE:7 DTSTART;TZID=America/Vancouver:20060809T083000 SUMMARY:Cut DTEND;TZID=America/Vancouver:20060809T230000 DESCRIPTION:Kitchen and Thrice Upon present:\n'Cut'\na performance insta llation in a house under\nconstruction.\n\nWednesday August 9\, 2006\nSh ows every 10 minutes from 8:30-11:00pm\n1618 East 10th Ave (at Commercia l Drive)\nTickets $5 at door\n*Reservations Required* call Alev or Jaimi e at\n604.254.4649\n\nProduced and performed by: Alev Ersan\, Alison\nMa ddaugh\, Aretha Aoki\, Cindy Mochizuki\, and Jaimie\nRobson END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT LOCATION:Bjornson Kajiwara Gallery\, 1727 W.

Exhibition continues to July\n29th. \nwww.TAG.bc. ca\, ph: 604.738.3500.\n\n\n\nHomemade Polygons presents five emerging a rtists from Canada\, all of whom share a highly ambivalent\, if not down right antagonistic view of the influence of digital technology on art. T he art in this show belittles\, bullies\, and borrows digital styles to serve the aims of the handmade. That massive player on the contemporary art scene\, here reduced to caricature -- the computer: insensate collab orator\, lifeless artist whose personal style is based on a series of on es and zeroes. The awful potentials of a styleless technology are smothe red by the vital\, anarchic energy of these drawings\, paintings\, sculp tures\, and collage. Messy studios and basic materials are offered as a passionate reaction to the influence of BASIC language and the conceptua l cubicle\, that clean\, compartmentalized GUI desktop. \n\nThe artists in Homemade Polygons...\n\nMatthew Brown exploits and adapts the Flash e sthetic to create a new kind of painterly mark on the canvas\; \n\nEli B oronowksy's gouache colour grids develop a kind of 3D Piet Mondrian land scape\, an impossible geometry to match the absurd advancements of Strin g Theory and CGI. There's Mark Delong's wall of Epson-and-paint collages \, raw\, perverse\, electric\, and iconoclastic. James Whitman's intense ly pixilated graphite drawings feature pastoral scenes filled with anomi c beasts warmed in the hothouse of the unconscious. And Joey Haley will show both paintings and drawings of hypodermic sexual materialism\, scen es with their own special effects\, all done with a freehand that is way smoother than any Adobe vector. These are art objects in response to th e anemia of the jpeg\, the pale pixilated search engine reproduction.\n\ n\nLee Henderson\n END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT LOCATION:the Memelab\n\n202-1814 Pandora St DTSTAMP:20060802T200816Z UID:8B75B4D7-2262-11DB-8BC6-000D933194E0-858481F0-5C2C-4F75-90B3-01CA743 8446C SEQUENCE:4 DTSTART;TZID=America/Vancouver:20060804T210000 SUMMARY:Salaam Salon DTEND;TZID=America/Vancouver:20060804T235900 DESCRIPTION:Salaam Salon\n\nAugust 4th\, 2006\n9pm – \n\nno cover\; dona tions accepted\n\nfeaturing\n\nSociety for Public Spontaneity performanc e\nILLUSIONS OF SPEED AND/OR GRANDEUR\n\nIn an attempt to stay focused a nd grasp the ever-elusive Olympic Dream\, three dry ice figure skaters a nd one sound technician will perform skills and routines for your pleasu re (and their glory). www.myspace.com/publicspontaneity\n\nMetre sound\n SITE SPECIFIC SOUND SERIES 4\n\nContinuing with NTSC's Site Specific Sou nd Series\, metre will be capturing audience sounds throughout the night - particularily at the refreshements table - and regurgitating them int o an event-ending dance party full of digestible goodness. \n\nStu Hughe s video\nACID BRAIN\n\nStuart Gregory Hughes is a tall handsome nerd.

Gifford's creative practice includes such diverse materials as ice\, jade\, marble\, and magic. His sculptural installation will transform th e gallery into an unusual cabinet of curiosities. His unique strategies as an artist combine elements of old-world artistry with a keen underst anding of contemporary culture. The exhibition will reference contents o f childhood pockets and a collection of sympathetic magical weapons\, ta lismans\, and disguises. Prepare to be amazed as this exhibition comes t o Vancouver. Don't miss the surveillance bee hive\, floating equestrian statuary\, jade gummy bear\, and chicken beak museum. This artist and ma gician channels a mysterious suggestive confusion - the kind used to cur e disease\, secure love\, and offer protection in battle while predictin g showers\, smoke\, and pollen. You can even touch it!\n\nDavid Gifford was raised by geese but eventually shed his wild man persona and assumed the air of a gentleman. He began to study magic after sustaining a fall from a trapeze. After attending the Ontario college of Art he went on t o study in Florence\, Italy and later received a BFA from the Nova Scoti a College of Art and Design\, and an MFA from the University of Victoria . In 2002 Gifford co-founded the Ministry of Casual Living and was the d irector/curator there from 2002 - 2004. He has been an artist-in-residen ce at Sir Wilfred Grenville College in Cornerbrook\, Newfoundland\; the Confederation Centre\, Charlottetown\, Prince Edward Island\; and the Kl ondike Institute of Art and Culture in Dawson City\, Yukon. Gifford is a beekeeper and travels his magic show across the Canadian North by train \, bush plane\, and freighter canoe.\n\n\n\n\n\nAccess Artist Run Centre gratefully acknowledges the support of the Canada Council for the Arts\ , the City of Vancouver\, the Government of BC through the BC Arts Counc il\, the BC Gaming Commission\, our members and volunteers.\n\n\n \n Access is a member of PAARC [Pacific Association of Artist Run Centres]. \n\nAccess Artist Run Centre\n\n206 Carrall St\nVancouver\, BC\nV6B 2J1\ nTel: +604 689 2907\nwww.vaarc.ca\nvaarc@telus.net\n\n__________________ _____________________________\nPAARClist mailing list\nPAARClist@paarc.c a\nhttp://paarc.ca/mailman/listinfo/paarclist_paarc.ca\n\nNo virus found in this incoming message.\nChecked by AVG Free Edition.\nVersion: 7.1.3 92 / Virus Database: 268.5.3/331 - Release Date: 03/05/2006\n END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Vancouver:20080216T150000 LOCATION:VIVO SUMMARY:SLAB: Follow Up - Visual Media with PD UID:9C6D7642-4B06-44FA-BD69-8A0FE16674F0-858481F0-5C2C-4F75-90B3-01CA743 8446C DTSTAMP:20080215T194416Z SEQUENCE:5 DURATION:PT4H END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Vancouver:20080315T113000 DTEND;TZID=America/Vancouver:20080315T123000 SUMMARY:Roundtable: Body Spaces - \nGender & Perfromativity UID:B366D929-44C0-41A8-A9FB-DC1A041C3679-858481F0-5C2C-4F75-90B3-01CA743 8446C DTSTAMP:20080306T230711Z DESCRIPTION:Gaby Pailer (CENES\, UBC): Citing the Heterosexual Norm Diff erently?

Gifford's creative practice includes such diverse materials as ice\, jade\, marble\, and magic. His sculptural installation will transform th e gallery into an unusual cabinet of curiosities. His unique strategies as an artist combine elements of old-world artistry with a keen underst anding of contemporary culture. The exhibition will reference contents o f childhood pockets and a collection of sympathetic magical weapons\, ta lismans\, and disguises. Prepare to be amazed as this exhibition comes t o Vancouver. Don't miss the surveillance bee hive\, floating equestrian statuary\, jade gummy bear\, and chicken beak museum. This artist and ma gician channels a mysterious suggestive confusion - the kind used to cur e disease\, secure love\, and offer protection in battle while predictin g showers\, smoke\, and pollen. You can even touch it!\n\nDavid Gifford was raised by geese but eventually shed his wild man persona and assumed the air of a gentleman. He began to study magic after sustaining a fall from a trapeze. After attending the Ontario college of Art he went on t o study in Florence\, Italy and later received a BFA from the Nova Scoti a College of Art and Design\, and an MFA from the University of Victoria . In 2002 Gifford co-founded the Ministry of Casual Living and was the d irector/curator there from 2002 - 2004. He has been an artist-in-residen ce at Sir Wilfred Grenville College in Cornerbrook\, Newfoundland\; the Confederation Centre\, Charlottetown\, Prince Edward Island\; and the Kl ondike Institute of Art and Culture in Dawson City\, Yukon. Gifford is a beekeeper and travels his magic show across the Canadian North by train \, bush plane\, and freighter canoe.\n\n\n\n\n\nAccess Artist Run Centre gratefully acknowledges the support of the Canada Council for the Arts\ , the City of Vancouver\, the Government of BC through the BC Arts Counc il\, the BC Gaming Commission\, our members and volunteers.\n\n\n \n Access is a member of PAARC [Pacific Association of Artist Run Centres]. \n\nAccess Artist Run Centre\n\n206 Carrall St\nVancouver\, BC\nV6B 2J1\ nTel: +604 689 2907\nwww.vaarc.ca\nvaarc@telus.net\n\n__________________ _____________________________\nPAARClist mailing list\nPAARClist@paarc.c a\nhttp://paarc.ca/mailman/listinfo/paarclist_paarc.ca\n\nNo virus found in this incoming message.\nChecked by AVG Free Edition.\nVersion: 7.1.3 92 / Virus Database: 268.5.3/331 - Release Date: 03/05/2006\n END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DURATION:PT1H LOCATION:Pacific Cinémathèque DTSTAMP:20070830T182022Z UID:62D11EC5-5725-11DC-8C6A-000D933194E0-858481F0-5C2C-4F75-90B3-01CA743 8446C SEQUENCE:2 URL;VALUE=URI:http://www.vlaff.org DTSTART;TZID=America/Vancouver:20070910T190000 SUMMARY:VLAFF - Paloma de Papel + Shorts END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Vancouver:20071020T130000 DTEND;TZID=America/Vancouver:20071020T173000 SUMMARY:VISUAL MEDIA with Pd UID:911F26A4-6D2C-11DC-8C2F-000D933194E0-858481F0-5C2C-4F75-90B3-01CA743 8446C DTSTAMP:20070927T190525Z DESCRIPTION:4 sessions: 18 hours Cost: $220 / $185\nOctober 13\, 20\, 2 7 & November 3\, 1-5:30 pm SEQUENCE:3 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Vancouver:20080510T220000 LOCATION:Red Gate DTEND;TZID=America/Vancouver:20080510T235900 SUMMARY:Blood Sound Two - Michael Red\, Tank Girl\, Colby Sparks\, Sorce rers\, Taalmala\, Dawr\, Spiney Jim UID:371F8199-F7CC-4057-8985-F584A4BC93C6-858481F0-5C2C-4F75-90B3-01CA743 8446C SEQUENCE:6 DTSTAMP:20080505T075529Z END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT LOCATION:Centre A DTSTAMP:20070627T215218Z UID:DF521B15-1D05-11DC-ADD8-000D933194E0-858481F0-5C2C-4F75-90B3-01CA743 8446C SEQUENCE:5 DTSTART;TZID=America/Vancouver:20070627T200000 SUMMARY:The 2nd OurTube DTEND;TZID=America/Vancouver:20070627T220000 DESCRIPTION:The 2nd OurTube\nWednesday\, June 27\, 2007\n20:00-22:00h\nC entre A\nGuest Speaker: Kyohei Sakaguchi\nTheme: Nairobi Report and Rece nt Activities\n\nOur Tube is a play on \"YouTube\".

Chefal's upfront selection and skills on the decks have quickly led him to djing extensively both within the U K and around Europe. He's resident at THE two pioneering Dubstep nights in London - DMZ and FWD>> - as well as holding residencies at Slam It! ( Helsinki\, Finland) and Voodoo People (Amsterdam\, Holland). When Chefal isn't playing records\, he's busy making them (actually making them) at Transition Studios\, where pretty much every fresh dubstep record gets mastered and pressed. Busy man Chefal also finds the time to host a week ly Radio Show on London's leading Rinse.Fm as well as manage his own lab el - Ringo Records.\n\nmore info on chef:\n\nFrom the early secondary sc hool days\, Chefal was spending all his pocket and dinner money on the l atest Jungle down at Big Apple on a Friday. He grew up listening to stat ions like Kool Fm\, Weekend Rush\, Rinse\, Upfront\, London Underground etc while playing Mario and Streetfighter in his bedroom.\n\nChefal Star ted listening to and buying House and Garage around 1997\, when it got d arker and more bassline influenced but still kept up to date with the Ju ngle and D'n'B until bout 2002. Chefal's sound that he's pushing FWD>> f oremost is Dubstep and the best bassed out Grimey beats. \"For me it’s t he bassline that makes me feel a tune.. \"\n\nChefal hooked up with BENG A and SKREAM many years back through Big Apple Records and has been the main DJ in their crew\, Smooth Kriminals\, so Benga and Skream could con centrate on the production side of things (tho Chef has starting craftin g some bangers himself lately). Chefal rinses out the freshet dubz first from everybody who’s sound he's feeling including... Benga and Skream\, Digital Mystikz\, Loefah\, L.D\, Plastician\, Cyrus\, Tubby\, N-Type\, Quest\, Clue Kid n Cotti\, Pinch\, Hench Crew\, Distance\, Hijak\, D'coy \, Kromestar n Cessman .. to name a few.\n\nThe main ingredients of Chef 's sets are energy and deep sub basslines whether it’s a half step rolle r or a 4x4 jah shaka style banger\, anything goes if Chefal likes it he’ ll play it simple. \"I play for the crowd and myself\, if I’m not having a good time how can I expect the listeners and ravers to? ..It's all ab out Bass weight maaaaan.\"\n\nhttp://www.myspace.com/dj_chef\n\n________ ________________________________________________________\n\n: TERMITE : volume\, edinburgh.scotland\n\nWhen Termite first visited Vancouver seve ral years back\, she played some of the first red gate parties and left quite a lasting impression. Vancouver was sad to see her go.. but now sh e's back! and Dubforms is very lucky to have her.

A turntablist take on dubstep and bass mu sic to open the night. Using 3 decks & Serato - which means a virtual 5 turntable set-up - mixing and cutting up a blend of their own production with other carefully selected jams\, this should get the night rolling pretty quick. (get there early folks!)\n\nDJ ABEL's been djing for 12 ye ars\, starting back in '95 playing skate comps and b-boy battles\, then moving on to DMC and ITF turntablist scratch battles in '99 until '04. T hen Abel began playing dancehall/reggae along with an already steady fun ksoul/hiphop influenced mix. He's played all over canada\, san francisco and even down to guatemala\, and is a regular face in vancouver's clubs cene. http://www.myspace.com/blacksharkent / http://www.facebook.com/pro file.php?id=559037550&hiq=abel%2Croy\n\nTHE PHONOGRAFF is Mike Jones (re al name folks!)\, who has been DJing for over a decade now.

No children u nder 18.\n\n\nFrom film marketers to urban specialists\, everyone loves to compare Vancouver with Los Angeles. But more than any other west coas t city\, it is perhaps San Francisco that shares the greatest similariti es with Western Canada’s largest urban enclave. The topography of both t he Vancouver Lower Mainland and the San Francisco Bay Area creates a spe ctacularly scenic setting on the Pacific\, and\, because of this\, there is also an obsession with “the view” that has shaped both cities’ urban formations. These cities also share innovative art traditions and a lon g-held fascination with respect to the urban panorama. In San Francisco\ , the influence of Eadweard Muybridge’s 19th-century experiments with ph otography and proto-cinema is still being felt\; in Vancouver\, the so-c alled “Vancouver School photo-conceptualist” artists have consistently p robed the intersections between modernism\, the city\, and film.\n \nThe Infra-structural Image: Urban Projections from the Bay Area and Vancouv er is a two-evening film series presenting a number of experimental shor t films and videos about the city that illustrate these mutual interests . The screenings examine work from the ‘60s to the present in which form and content are generated by the architectonic properties of public spa ces and the broader “urban field” of both cities. These artists take apa rt and reassemble images of the buildings\, streets\, public squares\, a nd corporate plazas to illuminate the life lived within. Many of these B ay Area films and videos have never been screened in Vancouver\, while t he Vancouver films have rarely been screened\, and have never shown toge ther.\n \nBlue Tape—Around a City Block (Glenn Lewis\, 1969\, 11 minutes \, 16mm)\nCanadian Pacific I (David Rimmer\, 1974\, 9.25 min.\, 16mm)\n Wild West Show (Al Razutis\, 1979-80\, 8 min.\, 16mm)\nNine O’ Clock Gu n (Chris Gallagher\, 1980\, 8 min.\, 16mm)\nSeeing in the Rain (Chris Gallagher\, 1981\, 8 min.\, 16 mm)\nMid-Span (Stephen Denure\, 1983\, 1 0 min)\nParallel Views (Stephen Denure\, 1983\, 10 min)\nGreat Leap For ward II (Jeff Carter\, 1993\, 4.5 min.\, 16mm)\nKingsway (Jamie Tolag son\, 2003\, 15 min.\, 16mm)\n \nCurated by Jordon Strom.\nJordan Strom is a Masters of Arts candidate in Critical and Curatorial Studies (Art H istory) at The University of British Columbia.\n\nThis project was made possible through the University of British Columbia Department of Art Hi story\, Visual Art\, and Theory and the Morris and Helen Belkin Art Gall ery at UBC\, the Alvin Balkind Fund for Student Curatorial Initiatives\, and the Vancouver International Film Festival & Vancity Theatre.\nThis project was made possible through the University of British Columbia Dep artment of Art History\, Visual Art\, and Theory and the Morris and Hele n Belkin Art Gallery at UBC\, the Alvin Balkind Fund for Student Curator ial Initiatives\, and the Vancouver International Film Festival & Vancit y Theatre.

His tenure with Jack began to break Nate out of self-imposed molds and into the sound world that he has embraced as his own.\n\nNate currently resides in Jersey City\, NJ and performs solo trumpet improvi sations as well as with his trio Blue Collar with Steve Swell and Tatsuy a Nakatani. He has also performed regularly with Anthony Braxton\, Bhob Rainey\, Alessandro Bosetti\, Fritz Welch\, Herb Robertson\, Kevin Norto n\, Tony Malaby\, Randy Peterson\, Scott Rosenberg\, Matt Moran\, Chris Speed\, Andrew D'Angelo\, Tim Barnes\, Okkyung Lee\, Assif Tsahar\, and other improvisation luminaries.\n\n\n\nGust Burns is a pianist\, improvi ser\, and composer based in Seattle\, Washington.\n\nGust is foremost an improvising pianist. He continues to develop new routes into improvisat ion on the piano\, working extensively with ideas concerning form\, rhyt hm\, and alternative narrative approaches\, as well as new techniques fo r inside the piano. He also has a pronounced interest in the use of comp osition and improvisation together\, and is usually writing music to thi s effect.\n\nGust makes improvised and new music that counts many differ ent perspectives and lines of tradition as influences. Both jazz and cla ssical traditions\, the rap and hip-hop music he grew up with\, the avan t-garde lineages in Europe and America\, and the traditions of improvise d music over the last 40 years. He has a keen interest in how issues suc h as intention\, practice\, community\, and musical content effect the r ole music plays in the socio-political-economic reality\; and how this r eality effects the music.\n--------------------------------------------- ------------------- END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT LOCATION:The University of British Columbia\nMorris and Helen Belkin Art Gallery\n1825 Main Mall DTSTAMP:20080123T013235Z UID:0F299DA7-3B55-4619-9D0F-70FF92F72CEE-858481F0-5C2C-4F75-90B3-01CA743 8446C SEQUENCE:9 URL;VALUE=URI:http://www.belkin.ubc.ca DTSTART;TZID=America/Vancouver:20080124T200000 SUMMARY:Opning: EXPONENTIAL FUTURE\n DTEND;TZID=America/Vancouver:20080124T220000 DESCRIPTION:Tim Lee\, Alex Morrison\, Isabelle Pauwels\, Kevin Schmidt\, Mark Soo\, Corin Sworn\, Althea Thauberger\, Elizabeth Zvonar\n\n18 Jan uary - 27 April\, 2008\nOpening reception: Thursday January 24\, 8 to 10 pm\n\n\nThe University of British Columbia\nMorris and Helen Belkin Art Gallery\n1825 Main Mall\, \nVancouver\, BC.

La C ommune\nis a film about the Paris Commune of 1871 when the citizens of P aris took\ncontrol of the city in attempt to transform everyday life in a utopian and\nnon-hierarchical way. The film bridges the past and pres ent as it\ninvestigates issues such as\; urban displacement and gentrifi cation\,\npublic/private space\, what makes a community\, true meaning o f democracy\,\ndiscrepancies of wealth\, and globalization. Like the ac tual Paris Commune\nof 1871\, an event which has been largely repressed by the French themselves\,\nthe film La Commune has been similarly margi nalized because of its\ncontroversial content and its five and three qua rter hour length. La\nCommune Discussion Group will provide an opportun ity to see the movie and to\nbuild a new community of people who are int erested in exploring the\nquestions raised by the film.
