Originally written in 1967\, Lefebvre suggests that the "historic city" has already lapsed\, and calls for a new approa ch to "the science" of the urban. To a certain extent\, this science see ms to involve quantifying whilst not containing those dynamic lacunae le ft unaccounted for within the commodity paradigm's conception of civic s pace. In its analysis of "planning" and its will to properly situate the agency of architects and politicians (among others) with respect to the city\, the text remains very relevant to a conversation about civics in Vancouver\, in 2011. There will be much to chew on in Lefebvre's use of the term "oeuvre" and his nuanced discussion of utopian vision.\n\nHenr i Lefebvre was born in southwestern France in 1901. He worked in the fie lds of sociology and philosophy from the 1920s\, navigating the fraught landscape of French Marxism through to his death in 1991. His book The C ritique of Everyday Life was formative for the Situationist movement\, a nd The Production of Space remains indispensable to many geographers and social theorists to this day.\n\nJeff Derksen is an active participant in Vancouver's sociocultural landscape as a critically engaged poet\, fa cilitator\, artist and theorist. He teaches in the English department at SFU. His long-standing interest in urbanism leaves him very well situat ed to help us unpack this text\, and hopefully further illuminate the wo rk he has been doing with his fellow Urban Subjects\, here at VIVO\, and elsewhere.\n\nNo Reading After the Internet is a monthly opportunity to gather and read a text aloud in hopes that it might provoke theoretical illumination on particular art works\, or the broader scape within whic h such work exists. This program departs from Cineworks' Thought on Film series\, conceived by Cheyanne Turions. Whilst still very interested in cinema\, the focus of this incarnation is softened to accommodate the m ore broad (and ever expanding) scope of media art.\n\nThe idea of a read ing group isn't new. No Reading nonetheless poses itself as an experimen tal learning and discussion space. Simply put\, we are suspicious of our own reading abilities\, and the extent to which our readings are conver sant with one another. No Reading means to offer a slow space within whi ch to retrace oursteps in the hopes of discovering individual and collec tive ways through the realms of language and interpretation. The strateg ieswe have at our disposal are twofold: through the yoking of ourdiscuss ion to a text\; and inducing conversation\, where possible\, between tex t and specific\, local\, contemporaneous art discussions and happenings. \n\nParticipation in No Reading After the Internet is free and open to e veryone\, regardless of his or her familiarity with a text or its author . Texts will be handed out at the gathering. No pre-reading or research is required.

He predicted a strange form of elect ronic writing that\nwould one day connect fishing communities along the Volga.\n\nA few years ago I read an article by Douglas Kahn about "conce ptual\ninstruments" (Annual InterCommunication '95\, ICC\, Tokyo). Kahn described\nthe work of a number of writers from the turn of the last Cen tury (late\n1800s to early 1900s). These authors imagined such musical i nstruments as\nvolcanoes shaped like flutes and trans-atlantic cables th at acted as giant\nharps - plucked by the ocean waves during a storm. In spired by this\, I\ndelved deeper into the works of Russian Futurists an d early Science\nFiction writers. Using a similar style to some of the w orks I had found\, I\nwrote four texts about different fantastical instr uments. This text\, cut\ninto a broken narrative\, is interleaved with t he sounds of the proposed\nvirtual instruments to form the basis of a ge nerative sound score.\n\nThe piece uses generative audio software that I developed to run on a\nMacintosh Powerbook. It generates threads of sou nd\, each involving a\ndifferent narrative (one of the four stories). Th ese sound threads are\nthen played on handmade trumpet-like speakers tha t hang from the ceiling\non mono-filament (fishing line). The speakers a re connected to the\ncomputer by braided-copper wires that also float in the air to a certain\ndegree.\n\n(Peter Courtemanche 2004)\n\nInstallat ion runs from October 16th to December 11th.\nSolder & Sons will be open until 8pm on Thursday the 16th.\n\nSolder & Sons\n247 Main St. Vancouve r\, BC\nhttp://www.solderandsons.com/\n\n\n END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT CREATED:20100110T040845Z UID:FDC199A1-C04A-11DB-8B65-000D933194E0 DTEND;TZID=America/Vancouver:20070319T200000 TRANSP:OPAQUE SUMMARY:Introduction to Voice\nInstructor: Tanya Marquardt DTSTART;TZID=America/Vancouver:20070319T190000 DTSTAMP:20070219T185713Z SEQUENCE:2 DESCRIPTION:Introduction to Voice\nInstructor: Tanya Marquardt\nMarch 5\ , 12\, 19 & 26 2007\n7-8 pm\n$40\n\nThis course is designed for those wa nting to integrate voice into their artistic practice\, whether as dance rs\, theatre makers\, performance artists or musicians.

As she waited for permission from the museum\, she started a series of photographs in her hotel room\; when the official okay never c ame\, these works became her biennial contribution. Si j’avais eu l’auto risation … (If I Had Had Authorization …)—thus ran the project’s subjunc tive title—then she wouldn’t have stayed in her room photographing props from her own personal archive of materials relating to the themes of co lonialism\, globalization\, and travel. She grouped these items on the t ile mosaic of the hotel floor according to classificatory patterns: ethn ologist\, painter\, photographer\, tourist. Although this was not the pr oject that Ponger originally planned\, it hews closely to her interests. Her politically motivated work continues to investigate issues of colon ialism\, ethnology\, ideology\, and constructions of identity.\n\n"A vis ual artist\, photographer\, and filmmaker\, Ponger is equally at home at Documenta (she participated in 2002) and at film festivals. Acting (oft en in the same work) as director\, set designer\, performer\, and archiv ist\, she investigates the interfaces between art and science\, between sociology\, art history\, and political activism\, moving obliquely thro ugh these disciplines to create compositions of explosive power and prec ise observation. Ponger interrogates the resonances of non-Western art w ithin Western modernism."\n__\n\nTim Sharp’s work is concerned with the construction of historical and personal memory. In his photo work he dea ls with the relationship between image and text while his films explore the changing relationship of image to sound and the mutability of the do cumentary assertion made by lens-based images.\n\nHe has taken part in m any international exhibitions and film festivals including Routes – Imag ing Travel and Migration in the Grazer Kunstverein\; Black Atlantic in t he Haus der Kulturen der Welt in Berlin as well as Shake in the OK Centr um für Gegenwartskunst\, Linz and Villa Arson\, Nice.

This program departs from Cineworks' Thought on Film s eries\, conceived by Cheyanne Turions. Whilst still very interested in c inema\, the focus of this incarnation is softened to accommodate the mor e broad (and ever expanding) scope of media art.\n\nThe idea of a readin g group isn't new. No Reading nonetheless poses itself as an experimenta l learning and discussion space. Simply put\, we are suspicious of our o wn reading abilities\, and the extent to which our readings are conversa nt with one another. No Reading means to offer a slow space within which to retrace our steps in the hopes of discovering individual and collect ive ways through the realms of language and interpretation. The strategi es we have at our disposal are twofold: through the yoking of our discus sion to a text\; and inducing conversation\, where possible\, between te xt and specific\, local\, contemporaneous art discussions and happenings .\n\nParticipation in No Reading After the Internet is free and open to everyone\, regardless of his or her familiarity with a text or its autho r. Texts will be handed out at the gathering. No pre-reading or research is required. If you are interested in previewing a text\, please contac t events@vivomediaarts.com for a digital copy.\n\nOctober’s Reading\nThi s month's text further probes matters pertaining to the gaze via the wri ting of Assia Djebar. Djebar is a reputed Algerian novelist\, filmmaker\ , translator and critic. Her work often deals with women's geographies i n Algerian (and Islamic) society and subalterneity. Having received a pr estigious Parisian education\, herself\, the perspective of her work oft en oscillates through a series of positions vis a vis colonialism and fe mininity. The text we are looking at takes up the account of French roma ntic painter Eugene Delacroix' experience of Algiers at the beginning of the era of French colonial rule--and specifically his being afforded a rare glimpse into the inner world of the harem. From here Djebar meditat es upon the sensory condition of the harem and the veil and the co-mingl ings of these material histories with those of Algerian colonial resista nce and independence. Whilst the work is certainly quite specific in its situation\, the hope is that it may be instructive within other convers ations pertaining to mise-en-scene\, visibility and the gaze. \n\n___ _____________________________________________________________\n\nVIVO ME DIA ARTS CENTRE gratefully acknowledges the support of the British Colum bia Arts Council\, the Province of British Columbia\, the City of Vancou ver\, the Canada Council for the Arts\, and individual donors.

Infinite Egress presents work from two recent m oments of heightened interest in the infinite: the beginning of the 1970 s and the last half of our own decade. Both moments represent a departur e from a grandiose sculptural approach and geometric graphics common to modernist representations of the infinite. Borrowing from visual languag es associated with fashion and commercial display\, entertainment and sp ectacle\, spirituality and transcendental experience\, optics and archit ecture\, the artworks presented here consider the concept of infinity in relation to the body. Infinite Egress—egress meaning to depart\, to eme rge—considers metaphors of unending and limitlessness with an often wry sense of humour and awareness of our contemporary media-saturated enviro nment.\n\nThe exhibition Infinite Egress features artworks by David Dyme nt & Roula Partheniou\, Babak Golkar\, Robert Kleyn\, Lucy Pullen\, and Robert Smithson. \n\nCurated by Jordan Strom\n\nPhoto: Lucy Pullen\, Inf inite Outfit\, (2004) mobius-knit reflective thread\n\nInfinite Egress c oincides with the openings for three other exhibitions: Ryoji Ikeda: dat a.tron/data.scan\, Optic Ear and Arcade: Kwantlen Fine Art Faculty.\n\nR eception Party for all fall Exhibitions:\nSaturday\, September 26\, 7pm (formal remarks at 7:30pm) Free admission\nLive performance by Coin Gutt er.

At 15 he discovere d making music. Five years later he's changed the course of UK urban mus ic\, having helped build the foundations of London's most exciting new m usical style\, dubstep. But he's barely started yet: because right now\, Skream is an artist on fire. \n\nSkream's story begins in Croydon\, in secondary school year 11. He wasn't getting on with teachers and they we ren't getting on with him: but he was getting on with his music. But two friendships cemented then would start him onto the path to musical succ ess. \n\nFirst he met Benga\, another talented Croydon kid who was start ing to make music. Then he met Hatcha\, soon to be one of the most influ ential and pioneering DJs in urban music. Around 2000 Benga and Skream s et about building on the early dark garage flavours that were to be foun d on the pirate airwaves around Croydon. Through Hatcha's sets at club F orward» and releases on the seminal Big Apple label\, they were about to create a new phase of dubstep. \n\nAt first Skream specialised in one f lavour of dubstep: dark. His clipped\, techy minimal style became a trad emark sound. Long before grime existed\, it reflected dark murky streets and sinister nights\, the sound of decaying London and its frustrated c ommunities\, stuck out in satellite towns and sink estates with nothing but a PC and freely available software to channel their frustration into . Stuck in front of a PC for days on end\, that's exactly what Skream di d. \n\nThen two years ago Digital Mystikz burst onto the dubstep scene\, expanding the sound with new flavours and vivid colours. Skream became even more inspired. It not like he wasn't prolific already - rumour has it he's made over 1500 tracks - but out poured a host of bright new trac ks from the wonderkid. "Indian remix" took him into trippy Asian territo ries\, "Cheeky..." into Arabia\, his unreleased mixes of Sunship fused J amaican dancehall smut with hooky Kraftwerk melodies. "Smiling Face" bro ke out cheerful reggae skanks on dancefloors. \n\nBut his biggest tune w as yet to come. Enter "Midnight Request Line" - on Tempa records - an an themic explosion of electro arpeggios and dub sub-bass. It's a tune you can sing along to: Skream has it as his own ringtone. When it got droppe d by DJ Youngsta at club Forward» grime dons Wiley\, Jammer and the rest of Roll Deep began to shock out\, flashing their lighters out of hard e arned respect. The flip of this mighty release is bassline boomer "I\," an excursion into deep dub basslines and shifting cinematic textures. \n \n***Since the huge success of “Midnight Request Line” UK & Internationa l DJ gigs have been coming thick and fast\, with Skream getting a raptur ous response at New York’s rammed Dub War event\, as well as at shows in Leeds\, Belgium\, Bristol & Germany. He’s also been busy releasing clas sic after classic on the popular Skreamizm EPs\, now into the second vol ume. From the Amen heavy rinse out of ‘Lightning Dub’\, to the mastercla ss in LFO-wobbling sub-bass ‘Blipstream’\, these tracks are rewound at e very dubstep rave\, have received glowing reviews and are appearing in s ets by DJs as diverse as Mr Scruff\, Freq Nasty & Ricardo Villalobos.*** \n\nIt shouldn't come as any surprise he likes sub-bass\, Skream has gro wn up around it. His older brother was a member of Croydon's notorious j ungle hell-raising raving outfit Intanatty Crew\, which featured Radio 1 's Grooverider and Bailey's 1Xtra as members. Ollie\, Skream's real name \, is no stranger to a bit of hell raising himself\, famous for his up-f or-it behaviour at parties or out on the town. In fact he's the only kno wn music artist with a subdued alter-ego. Most rock stars are quiet by d ay with flamboyant alter-egos. Our wonderkid is the other way around. Bu t then that's wonderkids like Skream for you: unique. \n\nSupported by V ancouver's own LIGHTA!

Instea d of utilizing noise-reduction-algorithms for the restoration of damaged audio signals\, these processes will be applied to various field record ings of China Town in Vancouver. After the introduction and a few field- recording trips in the area\, the participants will investigate the resu lts of audio-erasement-processes of the recorded material to reveal inne r sounds and the multiple ghostly presences of the recorded soundscapes. Through listening and analyzing\, the workshop leader wishes to foster a better understanding of the multiple and diverse auditory quality of a soundscape. This inquisitive approach will also help to interrogate wha t counts as sound when it can be used to explore the dynamic relationshi ps between its complex structures and the original environment. After th e workshop\, Giorgio will collaborate with Julie Gendron/Emma Hendrix\, a sound artist duo to produce a sound installation for the subsequent ex hibition.

Pender \n$8-$10 sliding scale\n \nFIELD HEAD [www.fieldheadmusic.com]\nFieldhead is P Elam (formerly a resident of Leeds\, UK\, currently a resident of Vancouver\, BC). He produces amb ient/electronic music that delights in tape hiss\, geography\, bleak lan dscapes and decaying analogue loops. He will be performing two recently composed pieces in a semi-improvised manner.\n\nSECRET PYRAMID & SCANT I NTONE [http://scantintone.com/ / http://secretpyramid.blogspot.com/]\nSw irling washes\, layers of howling feedback and cosmic buzz\, soft whispe rs giving way to deep\, dark ambiance. Creepy drones hover like grey mis t\, feedback swells echoing like flutes or distant birds\, all building up to a gorgeous fuzz-drenched climax\, beautifully whirling sound walls akin to the cryptic tones of Kevin Drumm's 'Imperial Horizon'\, but les s industrial. Secret Pyramid offers up something mystical\, serene and e phemeral.\n\nKRISTEN ROOS [http://www.kristenroos.com/]\nKristen Roos' s ound art is based on sound waves. Whether working with DIY radio-based p rojects\, massive arrays of low frequencies\, or sampled and sequenced r hythmic construction\, Roos demonstrates that there is more to sound tha n just audibility. His ongoing work with his micro radio project introdu ces a sense of reorientation and reconstruction of objects from their us ual state into objects with multiple possible meanings. Roos draws on hi story\, urban and rural sound ecology\, and the capabilities of his mean s of transmission to suggest new or hidden realities in relation to the subjects he investigates.\n\nUNDER THE SUN (Prophecy and Jenny Jones) [h ttp://www.myspace.com/underthesuun]\nIn this structured improvised 20 mi nute set\, Under the Sun will encounter a space queen and have a convers ation with her.\n\nROSS BIRDWISE\, SORESSA GARDNER and VICTOR BALLESTERO S\nThe trio will present audiovisual work that is at times playful\, dis turbing\, fragmentary and contemplative\; work that attempts to blur dis tinctions between stillness and movement\, memory and present time\, sou nd and image\, digital and organic\, conceptual and visceral.\n\nCHRISTO PHER ROONEY [http://www.youtube.com/user/FuckingSynthesizer]\nChris Will iamson Rooney describes himself as an "outsider artist." His music has g one from traditional folk and blues and instrumental guitar which he has been playing for fifteen years to experimental creations involving synt hesizers and tape recorders\, an avenue he has been exploring since 2003 . Presently he is composing vignettes inspired by Dante's Divine Comedy using a Buchla 200e modular synthesizer. Chris also does live electronic street performance.\n\nMAGNETICRING [http://www.myspace.com/magnetiicri ng]\nVancouver. Working primarily with vintage synthesizers & analog equ ipment.

The performers will turn inward\, outward and play lateral and horizontal games. Inspired by human generat ed\, sounds\, prOphecy sun will fold over a liquid soundscape full of am bient textural vocal vibrations\, swoons\, heavy breathing and dissonant melody. During Push and Pull there will be moments of all sound with no movement\, as well as all movement with no sound\, to highlight interco nnection and separation. In this durational moving installation\, live s ound\, visual accoutrements\, such as video and costumes\, will be utili zed as well.\n\nCHRISTOPHER ROONEY and MERLYN CHIPMAN\nMerlyn Chipman's artwork spans live improvisational audio/video\, print and installation art but he identifies himself as a "video feedback artist". Video feedba ck is the phenomena that occurs when a video signal is passed from a vid eo camera to a monitor while the camera and monitor are pointed at each other.

With a keen ear for texture\, tone\, melody and space\, Hut zulak creates warmly organic electronic music.\n\nBARRICADES: Jeremy Tod d\, Harold Donnelly and Andrew Short\n"Barricades" involves electronics\ , digital film projection and live performance. A three-part sound colla ge arrangement is derived from samples of the record "Murder at Kent Sta te University" (Flying Dutchman Records\, FDS-127). Album narration (wri tten by Pete Hamill and performed by Rosko) is recontextualized to exami ne relations between Cold War era mores and politics with the conditions of a seemingly endless neo-liberal present.\n\nThe audio of "Barricades " accompanies a visual montage informed by avant-garde anti-aesthetics. Appropriated b-film and still photography conflate post-war alienation w ith contemporary lifestyle marketing\, forming a suggestive portrait of 21st Century life.\n\nTHE FANTASTIC DREAM CABINET OF DR THANATOS\nOpenin g the portal to tangible imaginal realities\, Dr. Thantos leaves his bod y in a lab and gets blown backwards through the collective unconscious o n waves of sound\, image and metaphor. An epic psycho-acoustic alchemico -hypnotic dip into the depths of the collective unconscious\, a mythic j ourney in a few short minutes of objective time\, a consciousness alteri ng exploration of the post-modern ritual space.\n\nSCOTT AITKEN AND DAVI D LEITH\nUsing the electronic music of Edgard Varese's piece "Octandre" as a jumping off point we wanted to see what could possibly happen in th e realms of synthesis and dissonance within the framework of free improv isation an the concept of having a framework that is an "open" score. Sc ott Aitken uses his guitar with live processing. David Lieth builds and uses his own modular electronics/ synthesiers. Maybe we should write mor e but we really want you to listen.\n\nMODULAR SOUNDSCAPE\nAn improvised soundscape by participants from the Modular Synthesis Symposium.\n\nhtt p://www.facebook.com/event.php?eid=127097764017513 URL;VALUE=URI:http://www.facebook.com/event.php?eid=127097764017513 STATUS:CONFIRMED SEQUENCE:809 CLASS:PUBLIC SUMMARY:Squarewaves Festival DTSTART:20101211T033000Z CREATED:20101126T200846Z END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT CREATED:20100110T040846Z UID:57648F7A-F826-11DA-8A2F-000D933194E0 DTEND;TZID=America/Vancouver:20060610T200000 TRANSP:OPAQUE SUMMARY:Project8 Collective DTSTART;TZID=America/Vancouver:20060610T190000 DTSTAMP:20060610T021154Z LOCATION:VIDEO IN STUDIOS SEQUENCE:2 DESCRIPTION:The Project8 Collective has helped reinvigorate an old film making\npractice by doing super-8mm film workshops at Cineworks and The Purple\nThistle with artists from various backgrounds.

But more than any other west coast city\, it is perhaps San F rancisco that shares the greatest similarities with Western Canada’s lar gest urban enclave. The topography of both the Vancouver Lower Mainland and the San Francisco Bay Area creates a spectacularly 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 al so share innovative art traditions and a long-held fascination with resp ect to the urban panorama. In San Francisco\, the influence of Eadweard Muybridge’s 19th-century experiments with photography and proto-cinema i s still being felt\; in Vancouver\, the so-called “Vancouver School phot o-conceptualist” artists have consistently probed the intersections betw een modernism\, the city\, and film.\n \nThe Infra-structural Image: Urb an Projections from the Bay Area and Vancouver is a two-evening film ser ies presenting a number of experimental short films and videos about the city that illustrate these mutual interests. The screenings examine wor k from the ‘60s to the present in which form and content are generated b y the architectonic properties of public spaces and the broader “urban f ield” of both cities. These artists take apart and reassemble images of the buildings\, streets\, public squares\, and corporate plazas to illum inate the life lived within. Many of these Bay Area films and videos hav e never been screened in Vancouver\, while the Vancouver films have rare ly been screened\, and have never shown together.\n \nCastro Street (Bru ce Baillie\, 1966\, 10 min.\, 16mm)\nPanorama (Michael Rudnick\, 1982\, 13 min.\,16mm)\nSide/Walk/Shuttle (Ernie Gehr\, 1991\, 40 min.\,16mm)\nV ariations (Nathaniel Dorsky\, 1992-1998\, 24 min.\,16mm)\nPremonition (D ominic Angerame\, 1995\, 9 min.\, 16mm)\nSLOW (Scott Stark \, 2001\, 16 min.\, MiniDV)\nMarket Street (Tomonari Nishikawa\, 2005\, 5 min.\,16mm) \n \nCurated by Jordon Strom.\nJordan Strom is a Masters of Arts candida te in Critical and Curatorial Studies (Art History) at The University of British Columbia.\n\nThis project was made possible through the Univers ity of British Columbia Department of Art History\, Visual Art\, and The ory and the Morris and Helen Belkin Art Gallery at UBC\, the Alvin Balki nd Fund for Student Curatorial Initiatives\, and the Vancouver Internati onal Film Festival & Vancity Theatre.\n URL;VALUE=URI:http://www.viff.org/tixSYS/vifc/filmguide/event.php?EventN umber=1158 SEQUENCE:2 SUMMARY:Screening - Infra-structural Image: Urban Projections from the B ay Area DTSTART;TZID=America/Vancouver:20060619T190000 CREATED:20100110T040845Z END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT CREATED:20100110T041445Z UID:7D64CE3D-BA06-11DB-81B7-000D933194E0 DTEND;TZID=America/Vancouver:20070214T151500 TRANSP:OPAQUE SUMMARY: DTSTART;TZID=America/Vancouver:20070214T141500 DTSTAMP:20100110T041409Z SEQUENCE:1 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT CREATED:20100110T040846Z UID:BAC3C4C4-7AE8-11D9-BED8-000D933194E0 DTEND;TZID=America/Vancouver:20050215T203000 TRANSP:OPAQUE SUMMARY:Upgrade 2.0 DTSTART;TZID=America/Vancouver:20050215T193000 DTSTAMP:20050209T222138Z SEQUENCE:3 DESCRIPTION:Join us Tuesday\, February 15th at 730 pm for a talk by Kate Armstrong and Michael Tippett. 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.

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 th e bassline that makes me feel a tune.. "\n\nChefal hooked up with BENGA and SKREAM many years back through Big Apple Records and has been the ma in DJ in their crew\, Smooth Kriminals\, so Benga and Skream could conce ntrate on the production side of things (tho Chef has starting crafting some bangers himself lately). Chefal rinses out the freshet dubz first f rom everybody who’s sound he's feeling including... Benga and Skream\, D igital Mystikz\, Loefah\, L.D\, Plastician\, Cyrus\, Tubby\, N-Type\, Qu est\, 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 roller 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 about Bass weight maaaaan."\n\nhttp://www.myspace.com/dj_chef\n\n____________ ____________________________________________________\n\n: TERMITE : volu me\, edinburgh.scotland\n\nWhen Termite first visited Vancouver several years back\, she played some of the first red gate parties and left quit e a lasting impression. Vancouver was sad to see her go.. but now she's back! and Dubforms is very lucky to have her. Alice's crew in Scotland - Volume - basically have the Edinburgh scene on lock\, running regular s uccessful events that host the likes of Skream and Benga and many more. Known to mix up dubstep\, grime\, baile funk\, bmore and more\, Termite brings diverse selections to the table with the skills to match\, not to mention her bright personality.\n\nhttp://www.myspace.com/alicewillster / http://www.myspace.com/movolume\n\n__________________________________ ______________________________\n\n: TAAL MALA & MAX ULIS : lighta! sound \, sub-osc\n\nSealing off the night with Max and Keenan tag-teaming the bass heavy heat. Expect lots of originals from the crew and lots of ener gy. Everyone who's heard this hard-hitting duo in action knows this is s omething to look forward to.

A turntablist take on dubstep and bass music to open the night. Using 3 decks & Serato - which means a virtual 5 turn table set-up - mixing and cutting up a blend of their own production wit h other carefully selected jams\, this should get the night rolling pret ty quick. (get there early folks!)\n\nDJ ABEL's been djing for 12 years\ , starting back in '95 playing skate comps and b-boy battles\, then movi ng on to DMC and ITF turntablist scratch battles in '99 until '04. Then Abel began playing dancehall/reggae along with an already steady funksou l/hiphop influenced mix. He's played all over canada\, san francisco and even down to guatemala\, and is a regular face in vancouver's clubscene . http://www.myspace.com/blacksharkent / http://www.facebook.com/profile .php?id=559037550&hiq=abel%2Croy\n\nTHE PHONOGRAFF is Mike Jones (real n ame folks!)\, who has been DJing for over a decade now. The name ‘The Ph onoGraff’ was given to Mr.Jones by MOKA ONLY to help represent and signi fy his love for both music and graffiti. Originally hailing from Kamloop s BC\, he has been building in Vancouver for the last 6 years. In 1999\, Phonograff released a critically acclaimed mixtape called ‘Train of Tho ught’\, selling more then 1000 copies hand to hand with no distribution\ , featuring tracks from West Coast underground legends and his first jou rneys into his own musical production. “From the Bottom Up” is The Phono Graff’s debut full-length album\, featuring the likes of Moka Only\, Kia Kadiri\, JC Subliminal\, Luckyiam.PSC\, Edge 1\, Just B and Coco Love A lcorn. “It’s straight up hip-hop.. fusing roots reggae\, dub\, latin jaz z\, electronic music and huge beats with heavy bass and warm elements\, all the while keeping the turntablism and scratching in the mix.” Phono has opened for 50 Cent\, Blackalicious\, Lady Sovereign\, Alkaholiks\, J urassic 5\, Digable Planets\, Zion I\, Living Legends\, Kirby Dominant\, Maestro Fresh Wes\, Sixtoo\, Mr.Dibbs\, Swollen Members\, and countless others. http://www.myspace.com/thephonograff\n\n_______________________ _________________________________________\n\n: PRINCE SHO : royal platoo n\n\nNo stranger to mic-handling over the dubstep flavours\, Sho is back once again and guruntee's the fire.

V6Z 2 H7 604.662.4700\n \n Arthur Erickson \n \nArthur Erickson and Nicholas O lsberg in Conversation\nSaturday May 27\, 7 pm\nRobson Square Theatre\n \nArthur Erickson is widely acclaimed as the pre-eminent Canadian archit ect of\nthe latter half of the twentieth century. Through his work\, Eri ckson has\nexplored the ways that architecture can ³charge space with an inner presence\nand meaning² and make ³mundane materialsŠinto something more evocative and\npowerful than the sum of their parts.² With truthf ulness to materials and\nextraordinary attention to context\, Erickson¹ s work embodies a remarkable\nrange of cultural references while avoidin g any sense of imitation or\nmimicry. Working from the premise that ³the re is no such thing as a\nfreestanding structure\,² his work dissolves t he boundaries between buildings\nand their surroundings\, making structu res that read the landscape as a\ngeography of time and space\, with an underlying dynamic and an outlaying\nstructure that architecture can mak e visible.\n \nArthur Erickson will be joined in conversation by Nichola s Olsberg\, Director\nof the Canadian Centre for Architecture from July 2001 to May 2004. Olsberg\nwas founding head of the Archives of the Hist ory of Art at the Getty Center\nand directed the Master¹s Program in His tory and Archival Methods at the\nUniversity of Massachusetts. His publi cations include works on the political\nand literary culture of the Amer ican South\, American colonial\nadministration\, American architecture i n the twentieth century\, and archival\nand museum theory. \n \nAdmissio n is $10 for non-members.

The exhibition\nfocuses on twelve projects undertaken by Erick son over the past 43 years\,\nfrom Simon Fraser University (1963)\, to t he Waterfall Building (2002)\, and\nexamines Erickson¹s use of concrete as a primary material together with the\nconceptions of landscape\, publ ic space and social value that have provided\nthe framework for Erickson ¹s practice.\n \nGrant Arnold is Audain Curator of British Columbia Art at the Vancouver Art\nGallery\, where he participates in the Gallery¹s e xhibition and collecting\nactivities. He was previously Senior Curator a t the Art Gallery of Windsor\nand Extension Coordinator at the Mendel Ar t Gallery. Over the past seventeen\nyears\, he has organized more than t hirty exhibitions of historical\, modern\nand contemporary art.\n \nDavi d Theodore is a research associate and lecturer in the School of\nArchit ecture\, and also teaches design in the undergraduate and master¹s\nprof essional programs at McGill University in Montreal.

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 th e bassline that makes me feel a tune.. "\n\nChefal hooked up with BENGA and SKREAM many years back through Big Apple Records and has been the ma in DJ in their crew\, Smooth Kriminals\, so Benga and Skream could conce ntrate on the production side of things (tho Chef has starting crafting some bangers himself lately). Chefal rinses out the freshet dubz first f rom everybody who’s sound he's feeling including... Benga and Skream\, D igital Mystikz\, Loefah\, L.D\, Plastician\, Cyrus\, Tubby\, N-Type\, Qu est\, 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 roller 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 about Bass weight maaaaan."\n\nhttp://www.myspace.com/dj_chef\n\n____________ ____________________________________________________\n\n: TERMITE : volu me\, edinburgh.scotland\n\nWhen Termite first visited Vancouver several years back\, she played some of the first red gate parties and left quit e a lasting impression. Vancouver was sad to see her go.. but now she's back! and Dubforms is very lucky to have her. Alice's crew in Scotland - Volume - basically have the Edinburgh scene on lock\, running regular s uccessful events that host the likes of Skream and Benga and many more. Known to mix up dubstep\, grime\, baile funk\, bmore and more\, Termite brings diverse selections to the table with the skills to match\, not to mention her bright personality.\n\nhttp://www.myspace.com/alicewillster / http://www.myspace.com/movolume\n\n__________________________________ ______________________________\n\n: TAAL MALA & MAX ULIS : lighta! sound \, sub-osc\n\nSealing off the night with Max and Keenan tag-teaming the bass heavy heat.

A turntablist take on dubstep and bass music to open the night. Using 3 decks & Serato - which means a virtual 5 turn table set-up - mixing and cutting up a blend of their own production wit h other carefully selected jams\, this should get the night rolling pret ty quick. (get there early folks!)\n\nDJ ABEL's been djing for 12 years\ , starting back in '95 playing skate comps and b-boy battles\, then movi ng on to DMC and ITF turntablist scratch battles in '99 until '04. Then Abel began playing dancehall/reggae along with an already steady funksou l/hiphop influenced mix. He's played all over canada\, san francisco and even down to guatemala\, and is a regular face in vancouver's clubscene . http://www.myspace.com/blacksharkent / http://www.facebook.com/profile .php?id=559037550&hiq=abel%2Croy\n\nTHE PHONOGRAFF is Mike Jones (real n ame folks!)\, who has been DJing for over a decade now. The name ‘The Ph onoGraff’ was given to Mr.Jones by MOKA ONLY to help represent and signi fy his love for both music and graffiti. Originally hailing from Kamloop s BC\, he has been building in Vancouver for the last 6 years. In 1999\, Phonograff released a critically acclaimed mixtape called ‘Train of Tho ught’\, selling more then 1000 copies hand to hand with no distribution\ , featuring tracks from West Coast underground legends and his first jou rneys into his own musical production. “From the Bottom Up” is The Phono Graff’s debut full-length album\, featuring the likes of Moka Only\, Kia Kadiri\, JC Subliminal\, Luckyiam.PSC\, Edge 1\, Just B and Coco Love A lcorn. “It’s straight up hip-hop.. fusing roots reggae\, dub\, latin jaz z\, electronic music and huge beats with heavy bass and warm elements\, all the while keeping the turntablism and scratching in the mix.” Phono has opened for 50 Cent\, Blackalicious\, Lady Sovereign\, Alkaholiks\, J urassic 5\, Digable Planets\, Zion I\, Living Legends\, Kirby Dominant\, Maestro Fresh Wes\, Sixtoo\, Mr.Dibbs\, Swollen Members\, and countless others. http://www.myspace.com/thephonograff\n\n_______________________ _________________________________________\n\n: PRINCE SHO : royal platoo n\n\nNo stranger to mic-handling over the dubstep flavours\, Sho is back once again and guruntee's the fire.

They will develop a system for geo tagging images\, recorded text fragments and audio field recordings onto an interactive map of a Chinatown/DTES. Participants will be able to co ntribute to the content of such map\, and “play” a path through the map by tracing a path\, which the system “read” back by replaying the audio and image fragments found along the path. This project is guided by the principle of crowd-sourcing: putting knowledge-making in the hands of th e general public. This mapping also makes room for sensual\, poetic and politicized content within reference material\, and possibilities for al ternative stories to emerge.Using existing systems for public contributi ons to digital maps\, this project involves working with participants to write and record texts\, record sounds\, and add pictures to the system database.scheduled 11 June\, 2011 from 13:00 to 17:00\nhttp://centrea.o rg/index.cfm?go=site.index§ion=exhibitions&tag=upcoming&id=95\n -Thi s workshop offers an exercise in visualizing sound through the explorati on of a rich array of metal instruments\, including a set of large custo m made steel drums engineered by Japanese percussionist Kuniko Kato.

L isteners are encouraged to show up early to chat with the performers and have a closer look at the instruments.\n\nCollaborating for the first-t ime\, Stefan Udell and Ian Wsyatt perform with invented instruments\, an d some traditional instruments played in non-traditional ways. Known for his homemade analogue instruments\, Ken Roux plays a set of small audio oscillators\, handheld in free space with at the very least\, suitcase accompaniment. DJ and electronic artist Tanya Pea re-introduces listener s to sound-loops done the old- fashioned way — that is\, using real ¼ in ch tape loops. Sara Gold tells us to expect music that's “like eating br ie and concord grapes while drinking tallcans of cheap pilsner on a suns et ferry trip\, wondering where you're going to stay when you get wherev er it is you're going”.\n\nAbout the artists:\n\nStefan Udell is a local musician who plays guitar in the music group P:ano and is a soundtrack composer who works with local director Corey Adams. He is currently inte rested in inventing and constructing acoustic instruments and is in the process of negotiating with BC interior hermit composer Aleksandr Uvdale v to bring him down to Vancouver for a performance. Stefan used to play guitar in local music group The Beans.\n\nIan Wyatt grew up in a self-in duced trance banging sticks on rocks in the woods of Alberta\, humming i n harmony to vacuum cleaners and dreaming to the whisper of radio down t he hall. Though the materials may be different now\, not much has change d.\n\nKenny Roux's handmade\, analogue electronics experiments reference an imagined folk history/future of electronic music\, and enmesh the au ral and the visual. His previous experiments include Speaker Switch Box\ , The New Suitcase\, Tape for Two\, and Signature Series. He is a former artist in residence at the Western Front and has performed at the Chrom a Reading Series\, Gnarnia\, Saint George's Marsh\, Access Artist Run Ce ntre\, the 50-50 Gallery\, Open Space\, and in the Signal and Noise and the Open Circuits festivals. Currently he is working on a public\nintera ctive audio installation in Vancouver.\n\nTanya Pea is an electronic art ist from Vancouver. During the halcyon days in the early 90's when wareh ouse parties were just beginning to crop up\, her involvement as a DJ wa s pivitol and crucial in the evolution of the Techno scene. As a writer/ producer\, her releases include: HANDCUT ICECUBES EP on local label — Th e Record Company (co-operatively run with Phil Western)\, the DAYDREAMER EP with co-producer Kruhft\, cuts alongside Akufen and Mathew Jonson on 111 LOCKED GROOVES\, and Nosun - a commissioned soundscape for MAC-CFRO . As of late\, she is 1/3 of the electronic punk trio PRIMES — singing\, knob twiddling\, and synth programming. A PRIMES full-length album is s cheduled for release in Fall 2006 on Postfact Records.\n\nSara Gold is a DJ and musician\; in her own words she “has been known to bathe from ti me to time. Sometimes she likes to eat\, perhaps drink\, and when necess ary she relieves herself. On other occasions she sleeps for indeterminat e periods of time”.\n\nSingle tickets prices are $12 regular price and $ 8 for students and seniors.

The\nexhibition includes two bodies of work\, Mirror (1979) and Sha dows (1977)\nwhich Guy produced while studying at the Kunstakademie Düss eldorf 1975-79\nwith Klaus Rincke and Bernd and Hilla Becher.\n\nJanice Guy's work depicts the artist self-consciously engaged in the act\nof ph otographing herself. This layered and reflexive project is made\nvisible in highly composed shots where the camera acts as a second\nsubject. Fo r Shadows (1977) the camera's presence is felt by its shadow\nwhich fall s across the artists face as she holds the camera above her\nhead\, the lens looking back at her. In Mirror (1979) the camera itself is\nforegro unded as Guy captures her multiplied self-image in a mirror\,\ncreating an expansive and ambient optic. Both series have the visible\nstrength o f straight objective photography\, highly composed in stark black\nand w hite contrast. However these formal properties give structure to a\nvery graceful and tender self portraiture. As succinctly stated for\nGuy's e xhibition curated by Matthew Higgs\, "exploring questions of\nnarcissism \, objectification\, and the processes of representation\, Guy's\nworks can be understood as part of a complex interrogation of\nidentity-relate d image making."\n\nThese works first resurfaced in 2007 in the exhibiti on "Early Work"\n— organized by White Columns\, the artist Marilyn Minte r\, and\ncurator Fabienne Stephan. Since then Guy has received critical acclaim for\nthese photo works which have subsequently been shown as a s olo exhibition\nat White Columns\, and in group shows at the Metropolita n Museum\, New York\,\nand Wilkinson Gallery\, London. Shadows is featur ed in the current issue of\nBlind Spot magazine.\n\n\n\nThe Apartment is also very pleased to present Elastic\, an exhibition by\nVancouver base d artist Kika Thorne. Largely know for experimental\ndocumentary film/vi deo and collaborations with anarchist groups such as\nthe Free School\, Thorne's recent art has evolved into highly expressive\nabstract forms. Through the use of bungee and metal loops (Accord\, 2008)\nor magnets an d metal mud (Magnetic Drawing\, 2008) these works emerge from\nan ongoin g material fascination with tension to produce a negotiation\, an\nagree ment and in rare cases\, a 
resolution.\n\nIntegrated into these formal metaphors is Thorne's conceptual commitment\nto an investigation of our ambient schema\, here through the use of\nknowledge systems which evolve understated and eventual. A guiding force\nfor this recent work are the cosmological charts of Johannes Kepler. Born in\n1571\, in Württemberg\ , Germany\, Kepler published Mysterium Cosmographicum\,\n1596\, Harmonic e Mundi\, 1618 and the Epitome Astronomiae Copernicanae\,\n1618–21\, whi ch mapped the antique solar system\, realized equations to\ncalibrate pl anetary orbits and proposed a physical explanation of the\nmotions of pl anets\, namely\, "magnetic arms" extending from the sun. In\nSong of Imm anence\, (2008) Thorne employs the algorithm of planetary\nmovement as a musical score\, making legible the literal harmony of the\nsolar system . Singers may produce the drone of each planet\, transforming\nKepler's notation into song. Their collective harmonies sound the years\npassing in space\, the effect of being beyond the event horizon\, inside the\nbl ack hole.\n\nKika Thorne received her MFA from the University of Victori a\, BC and has\nexhibited extensively including projects at Murray Guy\, New York\,\nContemporary Art Gallery\, Vancouver\, Musee d'art contempo rain\, Montreal\,\nPortikus\, Frankfurt\, and the Power Plant\, Toronto. \n\nPlease join us for a reception for the artists on Saturday\, Septemb er\n13th\, 8-10pm.\n\nAt this time we would also like to congratulate No am Gonick and Luis Jacob\non the astounding success of their collaborati on Wildflowers of Manitoba\n(2007). We had the distinct pleasure of exhi biting an editioned portfolio\nof on-location shots from this project as our inaugural exhibition in\nDecember\, 2007\, just after its debut at the Biennale de Montreal\n(commissioned by Wayne Baerwaldt).

Third Avenue\, Vancouver BC \, SEQUENCE:3 DESCRIPTION:[THIS ONE LOOKS GOOD - ed.]\n\nopening July 6th from 6 to 9p m is Homemade Polygons\, a group show of\nemerging talent guest curated by contributing editor to Border Crossings\nMagazine\, Lee Henderson. Artists include Eli Bornowsky\, Matthew Brown\,\nMark Delong\, Joey Hal ey and James Whitman. 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 CREATED:20100110T040845Z UID:C3A3166C-C04A-11DB-8B65-000D933194E0 DTEND;TZID=America/Vancouver:20070305T200000 TRANSP:OPAQUE SUMMARY:Introduction to Voice\nInstructor: Tanya Marquardt DTSTART;TZID=America/Vancouver:20070305T190000 DTSTAMP:20070219T185644Z SEQUENCE:5 DESCRIPTION:Introduction to Voice\nInstructor: Tanya Marquardt\nMarch 5\ , 12\, 19 & 26 2007\n7-8 pm\n$40\n\nThis course is designed for those wa nting to integrate voice into their artistic practice\, whether as dance rs\, theatre makers\, performance artists or musicians.

This is the artistÃ�\;¹s sec ond solo\nexhibition with the gallery.\n\nA native of Alberta\, Bornowsk y received his BFA from Emily Carr Institute\n(now Emily Carr University ) in 2005. His work has appeared at galleries and\ninstitutions includin g The Contemporary Art Gallery\, Video In and Helen Pitt\nin Vancouver a nd the Banff Centre in Banff\, Alberta. Recently he was named\,\nalong w ith Jeremy Hoff\, as a semifinalist in the 2008 RBC Painting\nCompetitio n.\n\nThe artistÃ�\;¹s latest works present concentric square for mations of dots in\nvarying hues\, thrown into sharp relief by a neutral grey picture ground. The\nanticipated promise of these pictures is that they will dazzle us as op-art\nspecimens\, that they will allow us the same pleasurable contrast and twinkle\nof the lit signage over a theatre marquee. But here is where the viewerÃ�\;¹s\nexpectations are ro undly defeated\; the only predictable factor is that\nnothing is predict able.\n\nOne might think that\, in using these motifs and arrangements i n such a way\,\nBornowsky is attempting to shine a light\, either imitat ive or mildly\nparodic\, on the op-art or hardedge traditions of the pas t. But to make such\na deduction would be simplistic and roundly unfair. The energies in these\npictures do usurp whatever expectations the view er might have had\, but at\nthe same time\, they have a mystical and gen erous air\, as they engage us in a\nsilent two-way dialogue. The dots po ssess a synasthaesic quality\; they make\ntheir presence felt both throu gh their colour and texture\, as well as\nthrough how they collide again st each other\, how they float\, thump and hum\nagainst the background a nd get us thinking. These spheres may have come from\na recognizable set of traditions but�to refer to the well-worn Pythagorean\nphraseâ �¹they are not without their own special music.\n\nBlanket\nContempor ary Art Inc.\n6-758 Alexander Street\nVancouver BC\nV6A 1E3\n\ngallery 1 -604-709-6100\nwww.blanketgallery.com\nhours: Wednesday to Saturday 11am to 6pm URL;VALUE=URI:http://www.blanketgallery.com SEQUENCE:8 SUMMARY:opening: Eli Bornowsky\nNEW WORKS ON PAPER AND CANVAS DTSTART;TZID=America/Vancouver:20081017T180000 CREATED:20100110T040846Z END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT CREATED:20100110T040845Z UID:EFC9198F-777A-11DC-B2A7-000D933194E0 DTEND;TZID=America/Vancouver:20071010T210000 TRANSP:OPAQUE SUMMARY:CIRCLESQUARE\nLIVE DTSTART;TZID=America/Vancouver:20071010T200000 DTSTAMP:20071010T215154Z LOCATION:THE MEDIA CLUB - 695 CAMBIE SEQUENCE:2 DESCRIPTION:CIRCLESQUARE\nLIVE ONSTAGE PLAYING SONGS ABOUT DANCING AND D RUGS\nWITH DJ BOBBY WAYNE AND VERY SPECIAL GUEST\nSUNDAY\, OCTOBER 14\, 2007 - 8PM\nTHE MEDIA CLUB - 695 CAMBIE ST.

The idea of "vertical city" will be explored by extending Michel deCerteau's not ing of "Walking in the City" " to experience Vancouver as both walkers a nd listeners and the power dynamics of being above\, below and on the gr ound. Who walks the streets? And who has access to different points of v iew and hearing? As part of this project\, Jennifer and Andrew will util ize the adapted concept of soundwalking in the workshop to develop a sou nd installation to be mounted at Centre A’s exhibition.

The project brings together a group of Va ncouver-based artists from diverse backgrounds to design four projects t hat incorporate the workshop format and invite public participation. The workshops took place from May to July 2011. The artists/workshop leader s developed experimental models of collaboration with more than seventy participants in total. Each workshop offered an introduction of the proj ect and background research\, followed by hands on practice and a collec tive art making process. The participants not only shared the innovative learning experience but also contributed recorded material for the artw ork. The initiation of the workshops is inspired by Jaques Attali’s noti on that sound\, the organization of noise\, is more than an object of st udy. It is a way of perceiving the world and it reflects the manufacture of society.\n \nThe exhibition features the three new works based on th e workshop: Noise/De-noise by Julie Gendron and Emma Hendrix\, Map Sense by Germaine Koh and Gillian Jerome\, and Vertical City by Andrew Lee an d Jennifer Schine.\n \nJulie Gendron and Emma Hendrix\nNOISE/DE-NOISE\nT he original workshop\, led by artist/composer Giorgio Magnanensi\, focus ed on the use of noise-reduction-algorithms in a creative and compositio nal manner. Instead of utilizing denoising-techniques for the restoratio n of damaged audio signals\, these processes were applied to field recor dings of Vancouver China Town. Sound artist duo Julie Gendron and Emma H endrix then manipulated and transferred the recorded material to analogu e tapes to be played throughout the exhibition. The deterioration of sou nd resulted from the repeated plays is expected to reveal multiple layer s of sound reality. Audience will be able to experience the result of au dio-erasement-processes while lying on a waterbed in the gallery space. This inquisitive approach interrogates what counts as sound when it can be used to explore the dynamic relationships between its complex structu res and the original environment.\n \nGermaine Koh and Gillian Jerome\nM AP SENSE www.map-sense.com\n \nArtist Germaine Koh and writer Gillian J erome bring together their mutual interests in community work\, urban sp ace\, and the sound of words to create this interactive field map. With website designers Julie Gendron and Brady Marks\, they developed a syste m for geotagging images\, recorded text fragments and audio field record ings onto an interactive map that gives a multi-sensory view of a neighb ourhood. The project is guided by a belief in the need for local knowled ge\, opinions\, images\, poetry\, sounds\, and stories in the official r ecord of a place. This mapping also makes room for sensual\, poetic and politicized content within reference material\, and possibilities for al ternative stories to emerge.The first version begins with Vancouver's Do wntown Eastside and Chinatown. The website welcomes contribution from ev eryone throughout the exhibition. To add to the map\, post images\, vide os and words on the project's facebook page\, or email your still images \, audio\, text\, or video about specific places to mapsense.van@gmail.c om. Tell us the location on the map for your content. By contributing ma terial\, you confirm that you have the rights to it and agree to have it appear on line as part of the map sense project.\n \nAndrew Lee and Jen nifer Schine\nVertical City\nAt the workshop\, Andrew Lee and Jennifer S chine incorporated soundwalk as a way to navigate concepts of place and imaginability through the political and economic climate of Vancouver\, with a specific emphasis on the site of SFU's Woodward's building. The i dea of "vertical city" was explored by extending Michel deCerteau's noti on of "Walking in the City" to experience the neighbourhood as both walk ers and listeners and the power dynamics of being above\, below and on t he ground. The artists constructed a sound chamber to house a compositio n made from recorded soundscapes by the participants as well as artists’ own material\, where the notion of verticality is incorporated into the structure.\n \nSpecial Thanks to the following workshop participants wh o contributed recorded materials\, and without whom the exhibition could n’t have been completed.\n \nNoise/De-noise: Yi Xin Tong\, Jodie Mak\, R obyn Jacob\, Judy Cheung\, Jason Derr\, Anakana Schofield\, David Leith\ , John Oliver\, Dan Kibke\, Emily Thacker\, Constantine Katsiris\, Rob B irdwise\nMap Sense: Jacquie Leggatt\, Christine Stewart\, Hyung Min Yoon \, Andrew Clark\, Diego Maranan\, Aerlyn Weissman\, Debbie Blair\, Jamie Griffith\, Anakana Schofield\, Yi Xin Tong\, Donna Dykeman\, Vanessa Ka m\nVertical City: Katy Churche\, Randy Lee Cutler\, Brady Marks\, Lara S zabo Greisman\, Hua Phoebe Jin\, Mhenowah Meyhar\, Ian Lyle\, Debbie Bla ir\, Rene Baert\, Joni Low\, Benny Xu\, Andy Liu\, Cornelia Wyngaarden\, Jacquelyn Ross\n \n\nBiographies:\n \nJulie Gendron\nJulie has led nume rous art and design projects that consider interactivity\, accessibility \, playfulness and change.

Based in Vancouver\, Terada has often simultaneously drawn from and subv erted his native city as a means for examining constructs of regional an d cultural identity in the urban context. Terada persistently exposes th e language of signs that pervade our modern condition\, claiming the cit y and sites of communication as his ready-made. In this exhibition Terad a integrates a variety of media to further complicate and obstruct our r eading of these signs. \n \nIn his new work Terada maintains a connecti on to his 2005 sign work\, currently installed on the exterior of the ga llery that warns us to Stay Away from Lonely Places. With allusions to t he 1982 film Bladerunner in which the city is the main character\, Terad a continues to investigate the anxiety of place\, site and non-site. In an ambitious video installation he conflates the urban environment and t he space of the gallery\, playing with the vernacular of the contemporar y art object and the large-scale advertising billboard.\n \nIn the video \, three young Caucasian girls dressed as maikos (apprentice geishas) pe rform excess through the consumption (or near consumption) of alcohol\, cigarettes and pills. Mixing the aesthetic of slick commercial advertisi ng and 1980s kitsch\, in a constant play between past and present\, Tera da’s installation and new large format photographic works which depict e ach girl posed\, speak to the excesses of consumer culture and the exces s of accelerated development in the city. Within this new body of work T erada in turn probes questions of “looking” and embeds references to the history of exoticism and orientalism within the history of Western art. \n \nTerada has also created a new neon work that references Canadian ho ckey player Todd Bertuzzi’s infamous and sinister comment “It is what it is\,” which he made in response to his excessive violence during a game . In Terada’s inversion\, “It was what it was\,” he marks a contradictor y sense of loss and detachment from the past and further enacts the disp lacement of his cultural subjects. Through the dematerialization of the object and the image\, Terada nods to conceptual practices and continues to take up what has been described as “the most subtle and nuanced ripo stes to Walter Benjamin’s lamentation of the loss of art’s aura in the f ace of mechanical reproduction.”\n \nFor more information contact Catrio na Jeffries or Charo Neville at (01) 604 736 1554 or cat_jeffries_galler y@telus.net\nForthcoming exhibition: Art 39 Basel: 3 – 8 June\, 2008 \nCatriona Jeffries\n274 East 1st Avenue\,\nVancouver\, BC \nV5T 1A6 C anada\nt: (01) 604 736 1554\nf: (01) 604 736 1054\ne: cat_jeffries_galle ry@telus.net\nwww.catrionajeffries.com URL;VALUE=URI:http://www.catrionajeffries.com SEQUENCE:8 SUMMARY:Openning - Catriona Jeffries | RON TERADA DTSTART;TZID=America/Vancouver:20080523T190000 CREATED:20100110T040846Z END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT CREATED:20100110T040845Z UID:A4902E86-DBB1-11DA-84E3-000D933194E0 DTEND;TZID=America/Vancouver:20060505T225900 RRULE:FREQ=WEEKLY;INTERVAL=1;UNTIL=20060602T065959Z TRANSP:OPAQUE SUMMARY:Souns @ Alibi Rm DTSTART;TZID=America/Vancouver:20060505T210000 DTSTAMP:20060530T225417Z LOCATION:Alibi Rm SEQUENCE:5 DESCRIPTION:hey everyone\,\n\nthis night has been kinda slow to start\, but seems like it's rolling nice\nnow. this is the loose format for the summer\, with always an element of\nchance that some crazy stuff might b e toosed in the mix. if it's your\nfirst time coming down\, bug me for a drink..\n\n\nDUB // REGGAE // DANCEHALL // DOWNBEATS // GOOD STUFF\n\ne very friday night\, downstairs @ the alibi room (main st. & alexander) \ n10pm - 1am. no cover. drinks. food. casual good times.\n\nhosted by MIC HAEL RED\,\nand bringing by regular guests like CALAMALKA\, JACOB CINO\, and others. \nworking on appearances from SIR BASSA over the summer\, a nd others.\n\ncheck it!\n\n\n~michael\n\n\n----------------------------- ------------------------------\nWebMail provided by Photon.Net - http:// www.photon.net/\nNationwide internet access\, thousands of dial-up numbe rs!\nWeb hosting\, webcasting\, e-mail\, e-commerce\, and more.\n\n\n END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT CREATED:20100110T040845Z UID:AFAC1A7E-6EF7-4BCE-8D5A-06EF698566A7 DTEND;TZID=America/Vancouver:20080314T150000 TRANSP:OPAQUE SUMMARY:Conf: Key Note - Body Spaces - Political Body Spaces\nin Perform ances of William Forsythe - Prof. Gabriele Brandstetter DTSTART;TZID=America/Vancouver:20080314T140000 DTSTAMP:20080306T230349Z LOCATION:Multipurpose Area at the Liu Institute SEQUENCE:7 URL;VALUE=URI:http://project.arts.ubc.ca/bodyspaces/programme.htm END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT CREATED:20100110T040846Z UID:E6CDDF18-8817-45CA-8E05-CE7AB541A86C DTEND;TZID=America/Vancouver:20081215T020000 TRANSP:OPAQUE SUMMARY:Lighta!

Works for the festival sh ould examine relations of cross-cultural media - through video\, sound\, electronic music\, internet\, print\, and writing. A mosaic has tradit ionally referred to art which takes pieces of a part to create a whole. The word has been used in multiple references across literature\, media \, science\, software\, video\, and religion to describe different const ellations of this phenomena. To quote Sean Cubitt\, ‘A newly global con nectivity creates new arenas for interaction between science\, art\, and technology\, but also creates the preconditions for global crises.'\n\n \nIn recent years many political scientists and economists have discuss ed the equalizing effects of the internet on global culture. In addition to film\, music and visuals and installation art series\, NF 08 will b e creating shared media pieces connected via the internet and wireless p erformance. These pieces will have the ability to become part of a larg er discourse on all platforms including audio\, video\, textual\, design \, locative\, and performance. NF will be looking for applications that incorporate artists' personal work associated with the festivals curren t programming as well as proposals incorporating this greater participat ory project.\n\nTo find out more about the events within New Forms\, ple ase go to http://2007.newformsfestival.com/events/.

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.

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.

Keith Hamel (UBC \, School of Music)\n\nAbstract:\nWhile interactive performance environm ents such as Max/MSP and Pd \nallow a wide variety of user interactions in live performance\, they \nare not well integrated into most compose rs' working environments. \nMany composer writing interactive computer music create instrumental \nscores using music notation programs\, desi gn interactive patches to \ncreate electroacoustic sounds (or process i ncoming audio) and develop \nstrategies for synchronizing live instrume nts to the interactive \nenvironment (often triggering sections manuall y). Usually this \nworking method involves several disconnected softwa re programs and \noften results in inefficient simulation and rehearsal procedures. The \nauthor has been working on the design and developm ent of a an \nintegrated interactive music performance environment by e xtending his \nmusic notation program NoteAbilityPro to support remote messaging and \nsynchronization between live performers and the notated score using \nscore-following techniques. The current state of this s oftware \nenvironment will be presented along with a discussion of poss ible \nfuture developments.\n\nWeb: http://www.opusonemusic.net/muset/i impe.html\n\n====================================================\n\nTit le: Composing with Realtime Genetic Algorithms\n\nAuthor: Pr.

The topography of both the\nVancouver Lower Mainland and the San Francisco Bay Area creates a\nspectacular scenic setting on the Pacific\ , and because of this\, there is\nalso an obsession with "the view" and a manner in which this visual\nobsession has shaped both cities' differe nt urban formations and diverging\,\nthough no less innovative\, artisti c productions.\n\nThis exhibition and film series will present new media installation\, video\nand experimental short film that explore the rela tionship between film\,\nmemory and perception in relation to the Bay Ar ea and Vancouver urban\nenvironments.

This is the artistÃ�\;¹s sec ond solo\nexhibition with the gallery.\n\nA native of Alberta\, Bornowsk y received his BFA from Emily Carr Institute\n(now Emily Carr University ) in 2005. His work has appeared at galleries and\ninstitutions includin g The Contemporary Art Gallery\, Video In and Helen Pitt\nin Vancouver a nd the Banff Centre in Banff\, Alberta. Recently he was named\,\nalong w ith Jeremy Hoff\, as a semifinalist in the 2008 RBC Painting\nCompetitio n.\n\nThe artistÃ�\;¹s latest works present concentric square for mations of dots in\nvarying hues\, thrown into sharp relief by a neutral grey picture ground. The\nanticipated promise of these pictures is that they will dazzle us as op-art\nspecimens\, that they will allow us the same pleasurable contrast and twinkle\nof the lit signage over a theatre marquee. But here is where the viewerÃ�\;¹s\nexpectations are ro undly defeated\; the only predictable factor is that\nnothing is predict able.\n\nOne might think that\, in using these motifs and arrangements i n such a way\,\nBornowsky is attempting to shine a light\, either imitat ive or mildly\nparodic\, on the op-art or hardedge traditions of the pas t. But to make such\na deduction would be simplistic and roundly unfair. The energies in these\npictures do usurp whatever expectations the view er might have had\, but at\nthe same time\, they have a mystical and gen erous air\, as they engage us in a\nsilent two-way dialogue. The dots po ssess a synasthaesic quality\; they make\ntheir presence felt both throu gh their colour and texture\, as well as\nthrough how they collide again st each other\, how they float\, thump and hum\nagainst the background a nd get us thinking. These spheres may have come from\na recognizable set of traditions but�to refer to the well-worn Pythagorean\nphraseâ �¹they are not without their own special music.\n\nBlanket\nContempor ary Art Inc.\n6-758 Alexander Street\nVancouver BC\nV6A 1E3\n\ngallery 1 -604-709-6100\nwww.blanketgallery.com\nhours: Wednesday to Saturday 11am to 6pm URL;VALUE=URI:http://www.blanketgallery.com SEQUENCE:8 SUMMARY:opening: Eli Bornowsky\nNEW WORKS ON PAPER AND CANVAS DTSTART;TZID=America/Vancouver:20081017T180000 CREATED:20100110T040846Z END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT CREATED:20100110T040845Z UID:55C1E484-E0BA-4BA8-AC57-5FD6E00BA57B DTEND;TZID=America/Vancouver:20090227T235900 TRANSP:OPAQUE SUMMARY:"DADABUS" - Live Experimental Music + Live Art DTSTART;TZID=America/Vancouver:20090227T183000 DTSTAMP:20090123T015424Z LOCATION:Rhizome SEQUENCE:9 DESCRIPTION:Tanya invited you to "DADABUS" on Friday\, February 27 at 6: 30pm.\n\nEvent: DADABUS\n "Live Experimental Music + Live Art"\nWh at: Performance\nHost: The Automatic Message\nStart Time: Friday\, Febru ary 27 at 6:30pm\nEnd Time: Saturday\, February 28 at 12:00am\nWhere: Rh izome Cafe\n\nTo see more details and RSVP\, follow the link below:\nhtt p://www.facebook.com/n/?event.php&eid=46154074886\n\nThanks\,\nThe Faceb ook Team\n END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT CREATED:20100110T040845Z UID:2097B650-6946-11DB-BD6A-000D933194E0 DTEND;TZID=America/Vancouver:20061031T230000 TRANSP:OPAQUE SUMMARY:Team Satan presents : House of Horrors DTSTART;TZID=America/Vancouver:20061031T200000 DTSTAMP:20061101T011330Z LOCATION:At the Secret Location.

The exhibition opens a wi ndow on the vitality of contemporary art in this city. Vancouver artists continue to be better known in the U.S. and Europe than they are in the ir own city. Curators Juan Gaitan and Scott Watson chose artists working in different media whose work involved a wide range of issues to give a n overview of the new artistic thinking of our time and place. The curat ors were interested in works that engaged the complex reality of urban l ife at the beginning of the twenty-first century.

This is the artistÃ�\;¹s sec ond solo\nexhibition with the gallery.\n\nA native of Alberta\, Bornowsk y received his BFA from Emily Carr Institute\n(now Emily Carr University ) in 2005. His work has appeared at galleries and\ninstitutions includin g The Contemporary Art Gallery\, Video In and Helen Pitt\nin Vancouver a nd the Banff Centre in Banff\, Alberta. Recently he was named\,\nalong w ith Jeremy Hoff\, as a semifinalist in the 2008 RBC Painting\nCompetitio n.\n\nThe artistÃ�\;¹s latest works present concentric square for mations of dots in\nvarying hues\, thrown into sharp relief by a neutral grey picture ground. The\nanticipated promise of these pictures is that they will dazzle us as op-art\nspecimens\, that they will allow us the same pleasurable contrast and twinkle\nof the lit signage over a theatre marquee. But here is where the viewerÃ�\;¹s\nexpectations are ro undly defeated\; the only predictable factor is that\nnothing is predict able.\n\nOne might think that\, in using these motifs and arrangements i n such a way\,\nBornowsky is attempting to shine a light\, either imitat ive or mildly\nparodic\, on the op-art or hardedge traditions of the pas t. But to make such\na deduction would be simplistic and roundly unfair. The energies in these\npictures do usurp whatever expectations the view er might have had\, but at\nthe same time\, they have a mystical and gen erous air\, as they engage us in a\nsilent two-way dialogue. The dots po ssess a synasthaesic quality\; they make\ntheir presence felt both throu gh their colour and texture\, as well as\nthrough how they collide again st each other\, how they float\, thump and hum\nagainst the background a nd get us thinking. These spheres may have come from\na recognizable set of traditions but�to refer to the well-worn Pythagorean\nphraseâ �¹they are not without their own special music.\n\nBlanket\nContempor ary Art Inc.\n6-758 Alexander Street\nVancouver BC\nV6A 1E3\n\ngallery 1 -604-709-6100\nwww.blanketgallery.com\nhours: Wednesday to Saturday 11am to 6pm URL;VALUE=URI:http://www.blanketgallery.com SEQUENCE:8 SUMMARY:opening: Eli Bornowsky\nNEW WORKS ON PAPER AND CANVAS DTSTART;TZID=America/Vancouver:20081017T180000 CREATED:20100110T040845Z END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT CREATED:20100110T040845Z UID:3CF996DF-35DC-4ECE-8D99-872E4A4F1DAB DTEND;TZID=America/Vancouver:20071115T210000 TRANSP:OPAQUE SUMMARY:Symphonies of Time DTSTART;TZID=America/Vancouver:20071115T200000 DTSTAMP:20071113T231903Z LOCATION:vivo SEQUENCE:2 DESCRIPTION:Nuances of tribal rhythms + ambient meditations + space time configurations + industrial thrash rock + live VJ visuals and video wor ks\n\nPRESENTED BY\nPOPULATION OF NOISE\nAt\nVivo Media Centre\n1965 Mai n Street\nVancouver\, BC\n\n\n\n\nPOPULATION OF NOISE is a growing colle ctive of digital electronic musicians\, visual artists\, dancers\, fabri c artists\, installation and found object artists.

The exhibition\nwill transform the gallery to show a selection of video installations that\ndate from 1 996 to the present.\nDavid Claerbout draws on the conventions of film\, photography\, and digital\nmedia\, challenging boundaries by combining t raditional technologies in the\nproduction of his works. His works defy the expectations of the viewer\, as\nhe manipulates still photographs to introduce movement\, subtly accelerates\nor decelerates his films\, edi ts separate recordings together\, and often\nemploys narratives that bec ome a secondary feature to the work. What is\ncentral to the work is the nature of time and how time is perceived and\n"shaped" by natural eleme nts such as sunlight and darkness.\nThe exhibition will include "Bordeau x Piece" (2004)\, which is nearly 14\nhours in length\, and comprised of 70 short films shot at 10 minute\nintervals between 5:30 am and 10:00 p m over the course of several days.\nActors play out the same scripted sc ene over and over\, while the slow\nmovement of daylight across the set- not the script's storyline-becomes the\norganizing principle in the work \, and as Claerbout explains\, "gives form to\nduration by means of natu ral light."\n\nDavid Claerbout was born in 1969 in Kortrjik\, Belgium\, and lives and works\nin Antwerp. Since the late 1990s\, his work has bee n exhibited and included\nin public collections such as Sammlung Goetz\, Museum fur Moderne Kunst\,\nFrankfurt\, De Pont Foundation\, Boijmans v an Beuningen\, Hamburger Bahnhof\,\nCentre Georges Pompidou Musee Nation al d'Art Moderne.\n\nThis exhibition is curated by Scott Watson and is a collaboration with the\nRennie Collection\, Vancouver\, Canada.

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. Both the exhibition and launch of Birgit\ncommence on Thursday\, June 8th\, 2006 at 6pm.\n \nCurator’s Talk: By Roy Arden at the CAG with the artist in attendance:\nFriday\, June 9\, 7pm\n \nBirgit\, 2006 by Hans-Peter Feldmann is published by th e CAG and is\ndistributed by the CAG and Buchhandlung Walther König\, Kö ln.\n \nProject support for this exhibition has been graciously provided by the\nGoethe-Institut Toronto.\n \n \nChristian Kliegel \nProduction Postings\n \nIn his budding career\, Christian Kliegel has deftly manage d to mesh the\ngrand gestures of monumental sculpture with more subtle a nd personalized\nactions. 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.

How to Write a\nBook Of is about a fictionalized university club called the Alliance for\nFrench & America n Relations. Starling cross-referenced two novels by the\nFrench writer Georges Perec: Things: A Story of the Sixties (1965) and A Man\nAsleep ( 1967)\, to form a list of all the common words. Using only the\nresulti ng common words of this classification system\, he re-wrote Abbie\nHoffm an‚s Revolution for the Hell of It (1968). Sawatsky has produced a\nfore word to the book\, written by the „Co-founder‰ of the Alliance\, which\n contextualizes the re-made Revolution for the Hell of It as the winning\ nentry to the TWO HEROES Writing Contest for the Alliance. The foreword\ naddresses the possibility of critique and the political landscape of th e\nuniversity. Sawatsky and Starling are interested in processes of\nleg itimization and the contemporary repercussions of the revolutionary act\ ,\nwhich is strongly associated with the late 1960‚s. Similar to how Rev olution\nfor the Hell of It was originally written by Hoffman under the pseudonym\n„Free‰ and became an iconic work for Youth International Part y („Yippies‰)\,\nSawatsky and Starling have chosen to use the pseudonym of the Alliance for\nFrench & American Relations.\n \nRachelle Sawatsky and Dan Starling graduated from Emily Carr Institute in\n2005. Sawatsky is the recipient of the 2005 Helen Pitt Award\, has exhibited\nher work in Montreal and Vancouver\, and is currently working on a self-help\nbo ok. Starling is the author of several artist books including The Anagram \nConspiracy and is recipient of the 2005 Contemporary Art Society Award .\n \nProjectile Publishing is a project-based publishing house based i n\nVancouver. This book marks the first of a series of artist books and \ncritical texts published by Projectile.

He has spent the rest of his life trying musically to find a way back to the peace and quiet of that time by whole-heartedly embracing the space between complete absorption in sound and relative ab sence of the same.He began playing trumpet professionally at age 13 with his father\, and after studying he moved to Colorado where he studied m ore with Ron Miles\, Art Lande\, Fred Hess\, and improvisation master Ja ck Wright. 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.

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 th e bassline that makes me feel a tune.. "\n\nChefal hooked up with BENGA and SKREAM many years back through Big Apple Records and has been the ma in DJ in their crew\, Smooth Kriminals\, so Benga and Skream could conce ntrate on the production side of things (tho Chef has starting crafting some bangers himself lately). Chefal rinses out the freshet dubz first f rom everybody who’s sound he's feeling including... Benga and Skream\, D igital Mystikz\, Loefah\, L.D\, Plastician\, Cyrus\, Tubby\, N-Type\, Qu est\, 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 roller 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 about Bass weight maaaaan."\n\nhttp://www.myspace.com/dj_chef\n\n____________ ____________________________________________________\n\n: TERMITE : volu me\, edinburgh.scotland\n\nWhen Termite first visited Vancouver several years back\, she played some of the first red gate parties and left quit e a lasting impression. Vancouver was sad to see her go.. but now she's back! and Dubforms is very lucky to have her. Alice's crew in Scotland - Volume - basically have the Edinburgh scene on lock\, running regular s uccessful events that host the likes of Skream and Benga and many more. Known to mix up dubstep\, grime\, baile funk\, bmore and more\, Termite brings diverse selections to the table with the skills to match\, not to mention her bright personality.\n\nhttp://www.myspace.com/alicewillster / http://www.myspace.com/movolume\n\n__________________________________ ______________________________\n\n: TAAL MALA & MAX ULIS : lighta! sound \, sub-osc\n\nSealing off the night with Max and Keenan tag-teaming the bass heavy heat. Expect lots of originals from the crew and lots of ener gy. Everyone who's heard this hard-hitting duo in action knows this is s omething to look forward to. 'nuff said.\n\nhttp://www.myspace.com/maxtr onic / http://www.myspace.com/taalmala / http://www.soundsimple.ca/light asound\n\n______________________________________________________________ __\n\n: DJ ABEL & THE PHONOGRAFF : bruk out\, equilibrium\n\nNow THIS sh ould be something as well. A turntablist take on dubstep and bass music to open the night. Using 3 decks & Serato - which means a virtual 5 turn table set-up - mixing and cutting up a blend of their own production wit h other carefully selected jams\, this should get the night rolling pret ty quick. (get there early folks!)\n\nDJ ABEL's been djing for 12 years\ , starting back in '95 playing skate comps and b-boy battles\, then movi ng on to DMC and ITF turntablist scratch battles in '99 until '04. Then Abel began playing dancehall/reggae along with an already steady funksou l/hiphop influenced mix. He's played all over canada\, san francisco and even down to guatemala\, and is a regular face in vancouver's clubscene . http://www.myspace.com/blacksharkent / http://www.facebook.com/profile .php?id=559037550&hiq=abel%2Croy\n\nTHE PHONOGRAFF is Mike Jones (real n ame folks!)\, who has been DJing for over a decade now. The name ‘The Ph onoGraff’ was given to Mr.Jones by MOKA ONLY to help represent and signi fy his love for both music and graffiti. Originally hailing from Kamloop s BC\, he has been building in Vancouver for the last 6 years. In 1999\, Phonograff released a critically acclaimed mixtape called ‘Train of Tho ught’\, selling more then 1000 copies hand to hand with no distribution\ , featuring tracks from West Coast underground legends and his first jou rneys into his own musical production. “From the Bottom Up” is The Phono Graff’s debut full-length album\, featuring the likes of Moka Only\, Kia Kadiri\, JC Subliminal\, Luckyiam.PSC\, Edge 1\, Just B and Coco Love A lcorn. “It’s straight up hip-hop.. fusing roots reggae\, dub\, latin jaz z\, electronic music and huge beats with heavy bass and warm elements\, all the while keeping the turntablism and scratching in the mix.” Phono has opened for 50 Cent\, Blackalicious\, Lady Sovereign\, Alkaholiks\, J urassic 5\, Digable Planets\, Zion I\, Living Legends\, Kirby Dominant\, Maestro Fresh Wes\, Sixtoo\, Mr.Dibbs\, Swollen Members\, and countless others. http://www.myspace.com/thephonograff\n\n_______________________ _________________________________________\n\n: PRINCE SHO : royal platoo n\n\nNo stranger to mic-handling over the dubstep flavours\, Sho is back once again and guruntee's the fire.

The panelists and performers work across a range of met hods and a number of practices devoted to the study and exploration of s ound. Their shared pursuits reflect the condition of sound studies in it s present state\, a diverse and interdisciplinary field that offers a va luable critical discourse to current ideas of culture and social\, polit ical\, and economic organization. The symposium offers a unique perspect ive on what opportunities sound studies can provide today\, and concentr ates on three pertinent and engaging sectors: the changing area of sound as a distinct subject for analysis\, especially including the growth of sound-based art practices and new forms of popular experimental music a s related developments\; a reexamination of the influential work and ide as of the World Soundscape Project of the late 1960s and early 1970s at Simon Fraser University\, in particular the notions of the Soundscape\, the Soundwalk\, and Acoustic Ecology\; and\, finally\, a focus on the co ntext of everyday life\, emphasizing the prosaic sounds of daily urban l ife\, sounds often held in negative contrast to those of nature.

Photo by Nathan Bom ford. Courtesy of Mr. Carlos Yep.\n\nWhat is at stake in the attempt to represent that which by its very nature is unrepresentable? From Max Bil l to Marcel Duchamp\, MC Escher to Robert Smithson the concept of the in finite has inspired numerous Modern and Contemporary artists to make wor ks of art in relation to its central paradoxes. At the beginning of the 21st century philosophers and cultural theorists have been increasingly turning to the notion of the infinite in order to comprehend social forc es. Contemporary artists have similarly found the concept of the infinit e productive in trying to wrestle with representation and create works o f art that reflect the dynamics of contemporary life.\n\nRobert Kleyn an d Lucy Pullen will join Jim Gunson in a conversation that will consider contemporary art and the infinite through the idea of infinite regress\, the figure of the möbius strip\, the picture in transfinite math\, and the vanishing point of perspectival geometry. This event is presented in conjunction with Ryoji Ikeda: data.tron/data.scan and Infinite Egress ( with works by David Dyment & Roula Partheniou\, Babak Golkar\, Lucy Pull en\, Robert Kleyn\, and Robert Smithson). The speakers will address some of the questions raised by works in these exhibitions.\n\nRefreshments provided.\n\nSpeakers\n\nJim Gunson\, retired faculty member of Kwantlen Polytechnic University\, has degrees in Mathematics and Computing Scien ce. He has an ongoing love and fascination for the magic of mathematics\ , in particular analysis\, which explores the infinitely large and small . He has recently rekindled a passion for photography.\n\nRobert Kleyn i s a visual artist and practicing architect. Kleyn’s visual art practice includes photography\, video\, slide works\, sculpture\, installation\, and performance art. His works have been included in exhibitions in Euro pe and North America. He has won Canada Council awards and has received honourable mentions in several international design competitions.\n\nLuc y Pullen is a Canadian conceptual artist and sculptor. Pullen's work wit h conceptual art\, sculpture\, and aesthetics opens new fields of inquir y and her projects include interdisciplinary collaboration. Her approach to professional practice incorporates visual thinking on a philosophica l base. She has worked with international residency programs and is a te nured Assistant Professor at the University of Victoria.\n\nJordan Strom \, Curator of Exhibitions and Collections\, will moderate.\n\n---------- ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -----\n\nSurrey Art Gallery\n\n604-501-5566 | www.arts.surrey.ca\n\n1375 0 - 88 Avenue\, 1 block east of King George Hwy.\, in Bear Creek Park\n\ n \n\nDirections are on our website which includes a map.\n\n \n\n \n\n \n\nForward to a Friend\n \n\n Quick Links\n\n Arts in Surrey\n\n Surrey Art Gallery\n\n Other City Events\n\n City of Surrey\n\n \n\nTo modify your profile or unsubscribe click here\n \n\nPrivacy Poli cy\n \n\n \n END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT TRANSP:OPAQUE DTEND:20101016T053000Z UID:e136519266394659@facebook.com DTSTAMP:20100930T224106Z LOCATION:W2 STORYEUM DESCRIPTION:w2 & lighta! sound presents..\n----------------------------- ---------------------\n[ P I N C H ] head of tectonic records\, bristol. uk\n\n[ D A E G A S O U N D S Y S T E M ]\n\n[ L I B R A R I A N ]\n\n [ M I C H A E L R E D ]\n\n[ V J M I N E R V A ] visuals\n------------ --------------------------------------\n\nfriday\, october 15 @ W2 story eum\n$12 @ the door / $15 after midnight\nno advanced tickets / 10pm - l ate\n151 west cordova / http://www.creativetechnology.org\n\nreal dubste p and bass music. real vibes.\n\n_______________________________________ ______________________\n________________________________________________ _____________\n\n[ PINCH ] \n\ntectonic / planet mu / punch drunk / ninj a tune // bristol.uk\n\nPINCH is not new to the dubstep game. he's the l abel owner of\ntectonic records\, producer of quality genre-pushing musi c\, and\na seriously great DJ who's been blowing up systems around the\n world for a while now. vancouver is very happy to have him back.\n\nPINC H FACT DJ MIX - JULY 2010 - DOWNLOAD\nhttp://core.thomaslaupstad.com/fac t-mix-164-by-pinch-dubstep-madness\n\nEMIKA - DOUBLE EDGE (PINCH REMIX)\ nhttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GvRvNhxMe0I\n\nTHE BOXER\nhttp://www.you tube.com/watch?v=PeL6dEutv24&\n\nWAR DUB\nhttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v =YX6evoguxWI&\n\nQAWWALI\nhttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CWPE_XvzrTs&\n\ nQAWWALI VIP\nhttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E0hYhmBzNYY&\n\nGANGSTAZ\nh ttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FUZVbyKKpeA&\n\nBRISTOL DUBSTEP SCENE:\nht tp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FOMPorK7mY8&\n\nPINCH MYSPACE\nhttp://www.m yspace.com/tectonicrecordings\n_________________________________________ ____________________\n\n[ DAEGA SOUND SYSTEM ]\n\nlighta! sound / fathom / dpr / blipswitch // mt.elphinstone.bc\n\nhttp://www.myspace.com/daega \nhttp://soundcloud.com/daegasound\nhttp://www.fathomrecordings.com\n___ __________________________________________________________\n\n[ THE LIBR ARIAN ]\n\nbass coast project // squamish.bc\n\nhttp://www.myspace.com/d jlibrarian\nhttp://www.basscoastproject.com\n___________________________ __________________________________\n\n[ MICHAEL RED ]\n\nlighta! sound / low indigo // vancouver.bc\n\nhttp://www.myspace.com/michaelred4\nhttp: //lowindigo.blogspot.com\n______________________________________________ _______________\n\n[ VJ MINERVA ]\n\nenmedia productions // sunshinecoas t.bc\n\nhttp://www.enmedia.ca \n________________________________________ _____________________\n\nhttp://www.facebook.com/event.php?eid=136519266 394659 URL;VALUE=URI:http://www.facebook.com/event.php?eid=136519266394659 STATUS:CONFIRMED SEQUENCE:725552 CLASS:PUBLIC SUMMARY:PINCH - DAEGA SOUND - LIBRARIAN - MICHAEL RED @ W2 DTSTART:20101016T050000Z CREATED:20100922T130834Z END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT TRANSP:OPAQUE DTEND;TZID=America/Vancouver:20080423T220000 UID:C569D998-6FE0-4BF4-9928-8E60152A19A1 DTSTAMP:20081107T072834Z LOCATION:memelab DESCRIPTION:Wednesdays 8:30-10 pm\n\nher jazz noise collective is an exp erimental music network for women in Vancouver.

This inquiry has since conjured seven films\, colle ctively known as the Trypps series. The first gestures in Trypps Number One were cameraless and focused on manipulating the essential elements o f cinema: light and dark. By Trypps Number Three\, Russell was directing the cinematographic apparatus on the collective transcendence of a conc ert by Rhode Island noise band Lighting Bolt. Immersed in the deep chiar oscuro and soft focus of the throbbing spotlit audience\, Russell draws out the deeply corporeal and metaphysical embodiment of this contemporar y youth ritual. The adaptation of trance ritual within hybrid culture le ad to Trypps #6 (Malobi). Structures of ethnographic spectatorship are n egotiated\, and the body of the filmmaker folds into the cinematographic process. Trypps #7 (Badlands) fully indulges the semiotics of the movin g image. The perception of a woman’s LSD trip in Badlands National Park is suspended between the gullies and horizons of the desert landscape. “ Concerned with notions of the romantic sublime\, phenomenological experi ence\, and secular spiritualism\, the work continues Russell’s unique in vestigation into the possibilities of cinema as a site for transcendence ” (Museum of Contemporary Art Chicago).\n\nBen Russell: www.dimeshow.com \n\nBlack and White Trypps Number One\nUSA 2005.

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 th e bassline that makes me feel a tune.. "\n\nChefal hooked up with BENGA and SKREAM many years back through Big Apple Records and has been the ma in DJ in their crew\, Smooth Kriminals\, so Benga and Skream could conce ntrate on the production side of things (tho Chef has starting crafting some bangers himself lately). Chefal rinses out the freshet dubz first f rom everybody who’s sound he's feeling including... Benga and Skream\, D igital Mystikz\, Loefah\, L.D\, Plastician\, Cyrus\, Tubby\, N-Type\, Qu est\, 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 roller 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 about Bass weight maaaaan."\n\nhttp://www.myspace.com/dj_chef\n\n____________ ____________________________________________________\n\n: TERMITE : volu me\, edinburgh.scotland\n\nWhen Termite first visited Vancouver several years back\, she played some of the first red gate parties and left quit e a lasting impression. Vancouver was sad to see her go.. but now she's back! and Dubforms is very lucky to have her. Alice's crew in Scotland - Volume - basically have the Edinburgh scene on lock\, running regular s uccessful events that host the likes of Skream and Benga and many more.

A turntablist take on dubstep and bass music to open the night. Using 3 decks & Serato - which means a virtual 5 turn table set-up - mixing and cutting up a blend of their own production wit h other carefully selected jams\, this should get the night rolling pret ty quick. (get there early folks!)\n\nDJ ABEL's been djing for 12 years\ , starting back in '95 playing skate comps and b-boy battles\, then movi ng on to DMC and ITF turntablist scratch battles in '99 until '04.

We're a couple of women from Edmonton who are c urious about the connections between movement and politics and want to o pen up space to explore these ideas with others. We've been having conve rsations recently with friends and colleagues doing political work and w e saw that although there was a lot of interest in adventuring into the world of movement\, folks weren't sure how\, or were terrified of capita l-d Dance. We thought we would do something about it.\n\nWhy? Cause bodi es matter\, what we do with them matters\, and so where we can adventure in them and what we can imagine them to be/do also matters. Cause our b odies are the canvases and containers for our histories\, memories\, cre ativity\, struggles\, human relationships\, strengths and power. Cause w e\, as people doing political work\, need to take good care of our bodie s so we can continue doing the vital work we do. Cause most everyone can move\, and we think they should have the chance and space to do it\, wi thout pressure to perform and without an end goal in mind. Cause movemen t is a powerful tool for self-exploration\, expression\, creativity\, re sistance\, connection\, communication and collaboration. Cause moving ca n help us be better political activists through working on our skills of listening\, humility\, negotiation\, assertiveness\, generosity\, insig ht and creative sparking.\n\nFor all these reasons and others\, we're of fering up this workshop. Think of it as a kind of live experiment. We'll be bringing in a bunch of tools and exercises that come from dance\, dr ama\, energy work and other body-based practices. We'll work through the m and see where they take us. (And at the end\, you'll hopefully have so me new tools you can use in your own political work.) We would also like to open it up as a skill share of sorts and hear your thoughts\, experi ences and reflections on the connections between movement and politics.\ n\nPlease let us know if you're planning to attend\, or if you have any questions\, by emailing us at sadiekay@gmail.com.\n \n\nhttp://www.faceb ook.com/event.php?eid=134062658782 URL;VALUE=URI:http://www.facebook.com/event.php?eid=134062658782 SEQUENCE:654708 SUMMARY:IF I CAN'T DANCE IT'S NOT MY REVOLUTION!

None of the work has b een shown in Vancouver before and much of it is being made for the Belki n Gallery exhibition. \n\nAn illustrated catalogue with essays by Juan G aitan\, Monika Szewczyk\, and Scott Watson will accompany the exhibition .\n\n\nCo-presented with the Vancouver 2010 Cultural Olympiad.\n\nSuppor ted by The Audain Foundation and The Canada Council for the Arts.\n\n\nF or more information contact Julie Bevan at (604) 822-3640 or fax: (604) 822-6689\,julie.bevan@ubc.ca URL;VALUE=URI:http://www.belkin.ubc.ca SEQUENCE:9 SUMMARY:Opning: EXPONENTIAL FUTURE\n DTSTART;TZID=America/Vancouver:20080124T200000 CREATED:20100110T040845Z END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT CREATED:20100110T040845Z UID:B027183E-3FD9-4F89-8A61-DC924D732E1D DTEND;TZID=America/Vancouver:20080809T200000 TRANSP:OPAQUE SUMMARY:Super8 Film Festival DTSTART;TZID=America/Vancouver:20080809T190000 DTSTAMP:20080731T225348Z LOCATION:VIVO Media Arts Centre 1965 Main St. Vancouver\n SEQUENCE:1 DESCRIPTION: August 8 + 9 2008\nDoors: 7:00pm\, Screenings: 8:00pm $8\nc ineworks.ca / vivomediaarts.com\nMedia Contact: Julie Saragosa 604.779.2 066\nproject8info@gmail.com myspace.com/project8info END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT CREATED:20100110T040845Z UID:DB108A92-00BB-45C9-890C-F1893C09A3F1 DTEND;TZID=America/Vancouver:20080517T210000 TRANSP:OPAQUE SUMMARY:Eric Powell: sound.garden.scape DTSTART;TZID=America/Vancouver:20080517T140000 DTSTAMP:20080516T000819Z LOCATION:VIVO\, 1965 Main Street SEQUENCE:4 DESCRIPTION:15 + 16 May 2008 | 7pm – 10 pm\n17 May 2008 | 2 pm – 9pm\; h osted soundwalk at 2pm\n\nsound.garden.scape is a soundwalk installation .
