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.

How can we use computers to create virtual musical instruments? Is there a difference b etween the two?\n\nA computer\, or digital\, representation of music inv olves the use of numbers... lots and lots of numbers! It can be produced by a recording\, delivered to you in the form of a CD or MP3\, and can also be created\, or \"synthesized\"\, from scratch\, using nothing more than your home computer. Starting with some fundamental principles of a coustics\, and by drawing on several algorithms designed to enhance\, al ter\, or synthesize audio signals\, we will gain an understanding of how a computer may be used for more than just playing recorded sound.\n\nTh e field of Computer Music draws on the relationship between music theory and mathematics\, a relationship as old as the existence of either disc ipline. From this root\, Computer Music applies new and existing technol ogies to many different areas\, including\, but not limited to\, sound s ynthesis\, digital audio\, musical acoustics\, psychoacoustics\, composi tion\, music theory\, and performance systems.\n\nBio:\n\nTamara Smyth i s Assistant Professor of Computing Science at Simon Fraser University. P reviously\, she served as the Technical Director of the Center for Compu ter Research in Music and Acoustic (CCRMA) at Stanford University\, afte r completing a Ph.D is Computer-Based Music Theory and Acoustics\, and a Ph.D minor in Electrical Engineering\,under the supervision of Julius O . Smith. Tamara also holds degrees in Music from McGill University (Pian o Performance and Computer Applications to Music) and New York Universit y (Music Technology). Tamara's research merges the areas of physical mod elling synthesis\, digital signal processing\, musical acoustics and hum an computer interaction\, for the development of new musical instrument technology and interactive sound sources. Her work is presented regularl y at conferences world-wide.\n\n END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DURATION:PT1H LOCATION:Free - call 604.633.0861 to Reserve DTSTAMP:20080510T024646Z UID:B8745FD3-4E82-450D-80EF-489792E4069E-858481F0-5C2C-4F75-90B3-01CA743 8446C SEQUENCE:6 URL;VALUE=URI:http://www.newmusic.org DTSTART;TZID=America/Vancouver:20080511T200000 SUMMARY:SndWlk: From Dawn to Disk: Wanderings in Orbit END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT LOCATION:memelab DTSTAMP:20080115T223839Z UID:E0DC9FBF-780A-4683-908B-C518DF7DF8C6-858481F0-5C2C-4F75-90B3-01CA743 8446C SEQUENCE:1 URL;VALUE=URI:http://www.myspace.com/herjazznoisecollective DTSTART;TZID=America/Vancouver:20080123T203000 SUMMARY:open jam - her jazz noise collective\n DTEND;TZID=America/Vancouver:20080123T220000 DESCRIPTION:Wednesdays 8:30-10 pm\n\nher jazz noise collective is an exp erimental music network for women in Vancouver.

As she waited for permission from the museum\, she started a series of photographs in her hotel room\; when the official okay never came\, these works became her biennial contribution. Si j’avais eu l’aut orisation … (If I Had Had Authorization …)—thus ran the project’s subjun ctive title—then she wouldn’t have stayed in her room photographing prop s from her own personal archive of materials relating to the themes of c olonialism\, globalization\, and travel. She grouped these items on the tile mosaic of the hotel floor according to classificatory patterns: eth nologist\, painter\, photographer\, tourist. Although this was not the p roject that Ponger originally planned\, it hews closely to her interests . Her politically motivated work continues to investigate issues of colo nialism\, ethnology\, ideology\, and constructions of identity.\n\n\"A v isual artist\, photographer\, and filmmaker\, Ponger is equally at home at Documenta (she participated in 2002) and at film festivals. Acting (o ften in the same work) as director\, set designer\, performer\, and arch ivist\, she investigates the interfaces between art and science\, betwee n sociology\, art history\, and political activism\, moving obliquely th rough these disciplines to create compositions of explosive power and pr ecise observation. Ponger interrogates the resonances of non-Western art within Western modernism.\"\n__\n\nTim Sharp’s work is concerned with t he construction of historical and personal memory. In his photo work he deals with the relationship between image and text while his films explo re the changing relationship of image to sound and the mutability of the documentary assertion made by lens-based images.\n\nHe has taken part i n many international exhibitions and film festivals including Routes – I maging Travel and Migration in the Grazer Kunstverein\; Black Atlantic i n the Haus der Kulturen der Welt in Berlin as well as Shake in the OK Ce ntrum für Gegenwartskunst\, Linz and Villa Arson\, Nice. More recently h e participated in TIEFENRAUSCH also at the OK Centrum für Gegenwartskuns t\, Linz.\n\nIn 2005 and 2006 he took part in shows in the Kunsthalle Dr esden where he will be showing new work in 2010 as part of the series of exhibitions Notes on the Empire.\n\nhttp://www.facebook.com/event.php?e id=77703323640 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT LOCATION:BLIM DTSTAMP:20060718T215432Z UID:6F526C13-16A7-11DB-9F63-000D933194E0-858481F0-5C2C-4F75-90B3-01CA743 8446C SEQUENCE:5 URL;VALUE=URI:http://www.dragonseyerecordings.com DTSTART;TZID=America/Vancouver:20060722T200000 SUMMARY:Live Performances: Son of Rose and Yann Novak DTEND;TZID=America/Vancouver:20060722T230000 DESCRIPTION:Saturday\, July 22 - $7 – 10 sliding | 8 – 11 PM\n\nBlim pre sents:\n Dragon's Eye Recordings\n\nLive Performances by Son of Rose and Yann Novak\n\nYann Novak processes field recordings to produce “tremulo us tones\; tiny clouds of shivering microbial detail” Says Chris Sharp o f The Wire.\n\nSon of Rose's improvised live performances have been expe rienced as “The room begins to feel a little more humid as if we are wit nessing heat lightning banging against the edge of the horizon…”\n\n\nMo re Info available at:\nwww.dragonseyerecordings.com\nwww.sonofrose.net\n www.yannnovak.com END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Vancouver:20050922T190000 LOCATION:honey SUMMARY:feme night UID:70A4CD57-24AD-11DA-AC01-000D933194E0-858481F0-5C2C-4F75-90B3-01CA743 8446C SEQUENCE:2 DTSTAMP:20050913T232420Z DURATION:PT1H END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Vancouver:20080209T130000 LOCATION:VIVO DTEND;TZID=America/Vancouver:20080209T170000 SUMMARY:SLAB: Visual Media with PD UID:B4B231A9-D554-4C37-AA53-16F22035E284-858481F0-5C2C-4F75-90B3-01CA743 8446C SEQUENCE:5 DTSTAMP:20080203T091506Z END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT LOCATION:vivo DTSTAMP:20080703T213116Z UID:8291947E-17F7-49BB-B7DA-D0DA6CBDF35E-858481F0-5C2C-4F75-90B3-01CA743 8446C SEQUENCE:6 DTSTART;TZID=America/Vancouver:20080707T210000 SUMMARY:Her Noise - Dance Troupe\nRed Clover\nBurrow Owl\nHer Jazz Tape Project DTEND;TZID=America/Vancouver:20080707T220000 DESCRIPTION:\nx\n END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DURATION:PT1H LOCATION:The Ironworks\n235 Alexander Street\n8:00PM DTSTAMP:20070210T022253Z UID:9A4FEFFC-B8AD-11DB-8472-000D933194E0-858481F0-5C2C-4F75-90B3-01CA743 8446C SEQUENCE:2 DTSTART;TZID=America/Vancouver:20070208T200000 SUMMARY:Time Flies Improvised Music Festival DESCRIPTION:12 / $10 (Students\, Seniors\, Jazz Friends)\; $27 Big Time Pass (all three nights)*\n\nThis three-night session is a veritable feas t for those with an appetite for new and adventurous sounds. Time Flies (inspired by Derek Bailey’s Company Week) serves as a summit meeting for some of the most creative improvisers from Canada and around the world. \n\nBritish improviser John Butcher is a saxophone master. He has create d a vocabulary which can accommodate any number of disparate musical con cepts ranging through free improvisation\, structured pieces\, multi-tra cked saxophone pieces\, and works with live electronics\, amplification\ , and feedback. Throughout the ’90s\, John played in many contexts: with singer Phil Minton\, in an electro-acoustic duo with violinist Phil Dur rant\, and with the Austrian contemporary-composition quartet Polwechsel . Other partners have included Gerry Hemingway\, Steve Beresford\, and n o-input mixing-board specialist Toshimaru Nakamura.\n\nDutch pianist / c omposer Cor Fuhler plies the keyboard with a focused energy that blends wacked-out humour\, an open sensibility to free improvisation\, and a wi cked sense of swing. In an effort to extend the sound possibilities of t he piano\, he rarely plays without augmentation from various preparatory tools. Cor works in various configurations\, from his trio with drummer Han Bennink and bassist Wilbert de Joode\, to his large ensemble Corkes tra\, to collaborations with George Lewis\, Michael Moore\, and Tobias D elius.\n\nSeattle-based violinist Eyvind Kang has been connected with th e dynamic Northwest music scene since 1995. During this time he’s been h eard on over 50 recordings\, collaborating with the likes of Bill Frisel l\, Sun City Girls\, Laurie Anderson\, Wayne Horvitz\, and John Zorn. A powerful performer\, Kang’s solo recordings blend molten improvisations with a kaleidoscope of dissonant colours. Virginal Co-Ordinates (Ipecac) is Kang’s sixth record—an excursion into minimalist territory with nods to Terry Riley and Tony Conrad.\n\nBritish-born Phil Minton is consider ed one of the world’s greatest vocal performers. Guardian jazz critic Jo hn Fordham: “He is a brilliant juggler of pure sound when working with f ree-improvising players…Minton’s range is astonishing—from a sustained r esonant baritone all the way from the Welsh valley traditions of his chi ldhood to a dazzling fire-work display of percussive sounds\, furious fa lsetto stutterings\, exclamations\, pleadings\, demands.” Minton’s abstr act expressionist sonic creations have been heard with a range of artist s including Mike Westbrook\, Fred Frith\, Roger Turner\, George Lewis\, and John Zorn.\n\nDanish guitarist Hasse Poulsen is among the most creat ive and inventive young improvisers in Europe. Dividing his time between Paris and Copenhagen\, he plays with Sound of Choice (Fredrik Lundin\, Lars Juul)\; Louis Sclavis on Napoli’s Walls\; Louis Moholo\; Edouard Pe rraud\; and an engaging trio with Joelle Leandre and François Houle. He has developed a unique way of playing the guitar\, incorporating prepara tions as well as a mix of both traditional and alternative techniques.\n \nToronto-born drummer / composer Harris Eisenstadt works in a wide vari ety of musical settings. Eisenstadt defies categorization as an artist: from ad hoc improvised music groups with renowned musicians such as Nels Cline\, Sam Rivers\, and Paul Rutherford\, he also plays in projects wi th musicians as varied as Bobby Bradford and Bernie Worell\; large ensem bles led by Vinny Golia\, Barry Guy\, and Yusef Lateef\; and world music bands with traditional musicians from Bali\, Gambia\, Morocco\, and Sen egal. The drummer has released five albums as a leader including the rec ent The Soul and Gone (482 Music).\n\nVancouver cellist Peggy Lee is a p illar in the city’s music community. She’s brought her wide-ranging skil ls as an improviser\, composer\, and new music practitioner to groups li ke Talking Pictures\, the contemporary classical ensemble Standing Wave\ , the Tony Wilson Septet\, and projects by singer-songwriter Veda Hille. As a leader of her own band she’s released three CDs featuring original compositions that explore the intriguing terrain between the melodic an d the abstract. She tours and records with Dave Douglas\, Wayne Horvitz\ , and Miya Masaoka.\n\nBassist Torsten Müller has made a huge contributi on to Vancouver’s improvised music community since arriving from Germany some six years ago. A gifted player\, he expands the parameters of his instrument through extended techniques. Müller has worked with trombonis t Gunter Christmann since the late ’70s and is a fixture at Vancouver’s Jazz Festival collaborating with the likes of Fred Lonberg-Holm\, Lori F reedman\, Kjell Nordeson\, and Chris Speed.\n\nThanks to:\nBritish Counc il\nRoyal Netherlands Embassy-Ottawa\nFonds Dijkdoorbraak\nDanish Jazz F ederation END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Vancouver:20090320T160000 DTEND;TZID=America/Vancouver:20090320T180000 SUMMARY:Pr.

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. Arne Eigen feldt (SFU\, School for the Contemporary Arts)\n\nAbstract:\nGenetic alg orithms have been used in music for several years - the\nproblem has alw ays been how to evaluate the results\, particularly in\nrealtime. Arne E igenfeldt will present the latest version of his\ninteractive system\, K inetic Engine\, and describe his solution to this\nissue. Kinetic Engine has been used in performance to control robotic\npercussionists\, as we ll as a compositional assistant in composing\nworks for percussion quart et and a new work for guitar and cello.\n\nWeb: http://www.sfu.ca/~eigen fel/research.html\n\nArne Eigenfeldt's music has been performed through North America\,\nEurope\, and Asia\, and his research into intelligent r ealtime systems\nhas been presented at ICMC\, NIME\, SMC\, EMS\, and SEA MUS.

Time Flies (inspired by Derek Bailey’s Company Week) serves as a summit meeting for some of the most creative improvisers from Canada and around the world. \n\nBritish improviser John Butcher is a saxophone master. He has create d a vocabulary which can accommodate any number of disparate musical con cepts ranging through free improvisation\, structured pieces\, multi-tra cked saxophone pieces\, and works with live electronics\, amplification\ , and feedback. Throughout the ’90s\, John played in many contexts: with singer Phil Minton\, in an electro-acoustic duo with violinist Phil Dur rant\, and with the Austrian contemporary-composition quartet Polwechsel . Other partners have included Gerry Hemingway\, Steve Beresford\, and n o-input mixing-board specialist Toshimaru Nakamura.\n\nDutch pianist / c omposer Cor Fuhler plies the keyboard with a focused energy that blends wacked-out humour\, an open sensibility to free improvisation\, and a wi cked sense of swing. In an effort to extend the sound possibilities of t he piano\, he rarely plays without augmentation from various preparatory tools. Cor works in various configurations\, from his trio with drummer Han Bennink and bassist Wilbert de Joode\, to his large ensemble Corkes tra\, to collaborations with George Lewis\, Michael Moore\, and Tobias D elius.\n\nSeattle-based violinist Eyvind Kang has been connected with th e dynamic Northwest music scene since 1995. During this time he’s been h eard on over 50 recordings\, collaborating with the likes of Bill Frisel l\, Sun City Girls\, Laurie Anderson\, Wayne Horvitz\, and John Zorn. A powerful performer\, Kang’s solo recordings blend molten improvisations with a kaleidoscope of dissonant colours. Virginal Co-Ordinates (Ipecac) is Kang’s sixth record—an excursion into minimalist territory with nods to Terry Riley and Tony Conrad.\n\nBritish-born Phil Minton is consider ed one of the world’s greatest vocal performers. Guardian jazz critic Jo hn Fordham: “He is a brilliant juggler of pure sound when working with f ree-improvising players…Minton’s range is astonishing—from a sustained r esonant baritone all the way from the Welsh valley traditions of his chi ldhood to a dazzling fire-work display of percussive sounds\, furious fa lsetto stutterings\, exclamations\, pleadings\, demands.” Minton’s abstr act expressionist sonic creations have been heard with a range of artist s including Mike Westbrook\, Fred Frith\, Roger Turner\, George Lewis\, and John Zorn.\n\nDanish guitarist Hasse Poulsen is among the most creat ive and inventive young improvisers in Europe. Dividing his time between Paris and Copenhagen\, he plays with Sound of Choice (Fredrik Lundin\, Lars Juul)\; Louis Sclavis on Napoli’s Walls\; Louis Moholo\; Edouard Pe rraud\; and an engaging trio with Joelle Leandre and François Houle. He has developed a unique way of playing the guitar\, incorporating prepara tions as well as a mix of both traditional and alternative techniques.\n \nToronto-born drummer / composer Harris Eisenstadt works in a wide vari ety of musical settings. Eisenstadt defies categorization as an artist: from ad hoc improvised music groups with renowned musicians such as Nels Cline\, Sam Rivers\, and Paul Rutherford\, he also plays in projects wi th musicians as varied as Bobby Bradford and Bernie Worell\; large ensem bles led by Vinny Golia\, Barry Guy\, and Yusef Lateef\; and world music bands with traditional musicians from Bali\, Gambia\, Morocco\, and Sen egal. The drummer has released five albums as a leader including the rec ent The Soul and Gone (482 Music).\n\nVancouver cellist Peggy Lee is a p illar in the city’s music community. She’s brought her wide-ranging skil ls as an improviser\, composer\, and new music practitioner to groups li ke Talking Pictures\, the contemporary classical ensemble Standing Wave\ , the Tony Wilson Septet\, and projects by singer-songwriter Veda Hille. As a leader of her own band she’s released three CDs featuring original compositions that explore the intriguing terrain between the melodic an d the abstract. She tours and records with Dave Douglas\, Wayne Horvitz\ , and Miya Masaoka.\n\nBassist Torsten Müller has made a huge contributi on to Vancouver’s improvised music community since arriving from Germany some six years ago. A gifted player\, he expands the parameters of his instrument through extended techniques. Müller has worked with trombonis t Gunter Christmann since the late ’70s and is a fixture at Vancouver’s Jazz Festival collaborating with the likes of Fred Lonberg-Holm\, Lori F reedman\, Kjell Nordeson\, and Chris Speed.\n\nThanks to:\nBritish Counc il\nRoyal Netherlands Embassy-Ottawa\nFonds Dijkdoorbraak\nDanish Jazz F ederation END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Vancouver:20060310T200000 SUMMARY:esonanCITY UID:84732A22-AEF7-11DA-828E-000D933194E0-858481F0-5C2C-4F75-90B3-01CA743 8446C SEQUENCE:2 DTSTAMP:20060308T230209Z DESCRIPTION:Friday\, March 10th\, 2006 @ 8pm\nresonanCITY: live audiovis ual performance Both Holzer and Kolster find inspiration in the history of experimental cinema and electro acoustic music\, as well as in contem porary \"live cinema\"\, improv and microsound practices.

But quality i s too\nparticular and preferences change. They are superfluous really\, misnomers\nthat distract from the basic reasons for ingesting either the real thing or\nits substitute. Value is in their effect. In its taste\, Instant Coffee\nbarely resembles the real thing\, but its effect is the same. Regardless of\ntaste\, it still works. Quality is beside the poin t.

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 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Vancouver:20081215T120000 LOCATION:318 Industrial Ave. SUMMARY:REDFLAGDESIGN :: OPEN STUDIO UID:7B819EDB-39A9-48ED-9CE8-AC1A7A1283E7-858481F0-5C2C-4F75-90B3-01CA743 8446C DTSTAMP:20081209T035819Z SEQUENCE:1 DURATION:PT6H END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT LOCATION:Centre A DTSTAMP:20080520T162736Z UID:C204FD37-3F23-4337-BE9D-3841A10CCE51-858481F0-5C2C-4F75-90B3-01CA743 8446C SEQUENCE:8 DTSTART;TZID=America/Vancouver:20080521T190000 SUMMARY:Panel discussion with\nCandice Hopkins\, Larissa Lai\, & Rinaldo Walcott.

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 exhibit included\na retrospective on Miranda July's Joanie4Jack ie Project (formerly Big Miss\nMoviola). As an independent distribution system and feminist art project\nJoanie4Jackie invited women filmmakers and video artists to submit their\ncompleted works which were then compi led onto a Chainletter tape of ten\npieces in the order of their arrival . Each artist on a Chainletter tape\nreceived a copy of that tape and a corresponding booklet of letters written\nby the featured artists. In 12 years Joanie4Jackie compiled 19 Chainletter\ntapes and three curated Co- Star tapes. As I stared down into the glass case\nthat housed a decade o f the project's video cassettes\, letters\, and related\nephemera\, I fe lt proud to have contributed my teenage movies to such a\nmonumental exc hange\, and nostalgic that at 27yrs old something that was so\ntangible\ , raw and experiential in my lifetime was already an untouchable\nmuseum piece.

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

A turntablist take on dubstep and bass mu sic to open the night. Using 3 decks & Serato - which means a virtual 5 turntable set-up - mixing and cutting up a blend of their own production with other carefully selected jams\, this should get the night rolling pretty quick. (get there early folks!)\n\nDJ ABEL's been djing for 12 ye ars\, starting back in '95 playing skate comps and b-boy battles\, then moving on to DMC and ITF turntablist scratch battles in '99 until '04. T hen Abel began playing dancehall/reggae along with an already steady fun ksoul/hiphop influenced mix. He's played all over canada\, san francisco and even down to guatemala\, and is a regular face in vancouver's clubs cene. http://www.myspace.com/blacksharkent / http://www.facebook.com/pro file.php?id=559037550&hiq=abel%2Croy\n\nTHE PHONOGRAFF is Mike Jones (re al name folks!)\, who has been DJing for over a decade now. The name ‘Th e PhonoGraff’ was given to Mr.Jones by MOKA ONLY to help represent and s ignify his love for both music and graffiti. Originally hailing from Kam loops BC\, he has been building in Vancouver for the last 6 years. In 19 99\, Phonograff released a critically acclaimed mixtape called ‘Train of Thought’\, selling more then 1000 copies hand to hand with no distribut ion\, featuring tracks from West Coast underground legends and his first journeys into his own musical production. “From the Bottom Up” is The P honoGraff’s debut full-length album\, featuring the likes of Moka Only\, Kia Kadiri\, JC Subliminal\, Luckyiam.PSC\, Edge 1\, Just B and Coco Lo ve Alcorn. “It’s straight up hip-hop.. fusing roots reggae\, dub\, latin jazz\, electronic music and huge beats with heavy bass and warm element s\, all the while keeping the turntablism and scratching in the mix.” Ph ono has opened for 50 Cent\, Blackalicious\, Lady Sovereign\, Alkaholiks \, Jurassic 5\, Digable Planets\, Zion I\, Living Legends\, Kirby Domina nt\, Maestro Fresh Wes\, Sixtoo\, Mr.Dibbs\, Swollen Members\, and count less others. http://www.myspace.com/thephonograff\n\n___________________ _____________________________________________\n\n: PRINCE SHO : royal pl atoon\n\nNo stranger to mic-handling over the dubstep flavours\, Sho is back once again and guruntee's the fire.

(opening Thurs day\, June 12th\, 2008\, Exhibition runs June 9th to July 31st\, 2008)\n \nJayce Salloum\, a Vancouver-based artist\, collaborates with Khadim Al i\, a Hazara-Afghani artist living in Pakistan\, on an exhibition of pho tography\, video work and objects made and found during their work in Af ghanistan this spring. The project focuses on Afghanistan's Bamiyan vall ey\, where the Taliban destroyed two ancient statues of the Buddha in 20 01\, as well as geo-political issues related to migration\, culture and imperialism.\n\nIn undertaking this purveyance of Bamiyan and by extensi on Afghanistan\, the artists examine the ingenuity of survivors and bear witness to the endurance of the Hazara people. Is there scope for stabi lity in Afghanistan? Is there hope for freedom? What is the First World' s role and responsibility in the region? In reflecting on these question s\, the project addresses political priorities and human values in a glo balizing world\, providing a unique perspective on the complexities of t he post-9/11 landscape.\n\nJayce Salloum's practise exists between the p ersonal\, quotidian\, local and the trans-national. He has been working in installation\, photography\, video\, mixed media\, text\, and perform ance\, since 1978\, as well as curating exhibitions\, conducting worksho ps and coordinating cultural projects. He has lectured and published per vasively and has exhibited at the widest range of local and internationa l venues possible\, from the smallest unnamed storefronts and community centres in his downtown eastside Vancouver neighbourhood to institutions such as The Museum of Modern Art\, Centre Georges Pompidou\, National G allery of Canada\, CaixaForum\, Kunstlerhaus Bethanien\, Bienal De La Ha vana\, Sharjah Biennial\, Biennale of Sydney and the Rotterdam Internati onal Film Festival.\n\nKhadim Ali is a Hazara artist from Afghanistan li ving in Pakistan. He was trained in miniature painting at the National C ollege of Art in Lahore and in mural painting and calligraphy at Tehran University. Now based in Pakistan\, Ali is an ethnic Hazara whose famili al connections are to Bamiyan/Hazarajat\, a region occupied from 1998 to 2001 by the Taliban\, which massacred thousands of Hazaras throughout A fghanistan. His exhibitions include shows at the Alhamra Art Gallery\, L ahore\; Chawkandi Art Gallery\, Karachi\; Hijran Art Gallery\, Shiraz\, Iran\; Asia Pacific Triennial\, Brisbane\; The Bathhouse Gallery\, Toky o and the Fukuoka Asian Art Museum\, Japan.

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.

Gifford's creative practice includes such diverse materials as ice\, jade\, marble\, and magic. His sculptural installation will transform th e gallery into an unusual cabinet of curiosities. His unique strategies as an artist combine elements of old-world artistry with a keen underst anding of contemporary culture. The exhibition will reference contents o f childhood pockets and a collection of sympathetic magical weapons\, ta lismans\, and disguises. Prepare to be amazed as this exhibition comes t o Vancouver. Don't miss the surveillance bee hive\, floating equestrian statuary\, jade gummy bear\, and chicken beak museum. This artist and ma gician channels a mysterious suggestive confusion - the kind used to cur e disease\, secure love\, and offer protection in battle while predictin g showers\, smoke\, and pollen. You can even touch it!\n\nDavid Gifford was raised by geese but eventually shed his wild man persona and assumed the air of a gentleman. He began to study magic after sustaining a fall from a trapeze. After attending the Ontario college of Art he went on t o study in Florence\, Italy and later received a BFA from the Nova Scoti a College of Art and Design\, and an MFA from the University of Victoria . In 2002 Gifford co-founded the Ministry of Casual Living and was the d irector/curator there from 2002 - 2004. He has been an artist-in-residen ce at Sir Wilfred Grenville College in Cornerbrook\, Newfoundland\; the Confederation Centre\, Charlottetown\, Prince Edward Island\; and the Kl ondike Institute of Art and Culture in Dawson City\, Yukon. Gifford is a beekeeper and travels his magic show across the Canadian North by train \, bush plane\, and freighter canoe.\n\n\n\n\n\nAccess Artist Run Centre gratefully acknowledges the support of the Canada Council for the Arts\ , the City of Vancouver\, the Government of BC through the BC Arts Counc il\, the BC Gaming Commission\, our members and volunteers.\n\n\n \n Access is a member of PAARC [Pacific Association of Artist Run Centres]. \n\nAccess Artist Run Centre\n\n206 Carrall St\nVancouver\, BC\nV6B 2J1\ nTel: +604 689 2907\nwww.vaarc.ca\nvaarc@telus.net\n\n__________________ _____________________________\nPAARClist mailing list\nPAARClist@paarc.c a\nhttp://paarc.ca/mailman/listinfo/paarclist_paarc.ca\n\nNo virus found in this incoming message.\nChecked by AVG Free Edition.\nVersion: 7.1.3 92 / Virus Database: 268.5.3/331 - Release Date: 03/05/2006\n END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Vancouver:20090114T160000 LOCATION:1600 block west 3rd at Fir st. @ South Side of the street (away from the mountains).

Chefal's upfront selection and skills on the decks have quickly led him to djing extensively both within the U K and around Europe. He's resident at THE two pioneering Dubstep nights in London - DMZ and FWD>> - as well as holding residencies at Slam It! ( Helsinki\, Finland) and Voodoo People (Amsterdam\, Holland). When Chefal isn't playing records\, he's busy making them (actually making them) at Transition Studios\, where pretty much every fresh dubstep record gets mastered and pressed. Busy man Chefal also finds the time to host a week ly Radio Show on London's leading Rinse.Fm as well as manage his own lab el - Ringo Records.\n\nmore info on chef:\n\nFrom the early secondary sc hool days\, Chefal was spending all his pocket and dinner money on the l atest Jungle down at Big Apple on a Friday. He grew up listening to stat ions like Kool Fm\, Weekend Rush\, Rinse\, Upfront\, London Underground etc while playing Mario and Streetfighter in his bedroom.\n\nChefal Star ted listening to and buying House and Garage around 1997\, when it got d arker and more bassline influenced but still kept up to date with the Ju ngle and D'n'B until bout 2002. Chefal's sound that he's pushing FWD>> f oremost is Dubstep and the best bassed out Grimey beats. \"For me it’s t he bassline that makes me feel a tune.. \"\n\nChefal hooked up with BENG A and SKREAM many years back through Big Apple Records and has been the main DJ in their crew\, Smooth Kriminals\, so Benga and Skream could con centrate on the production side of things (tho Chef has starting craftin g some bangers himself lately). Chefal rinses out the freshet dubz first from everybody who’s sound he's feeling including... Benga and Skream\, Digital Mystikz\, Loefah\, L.D\, Plastician\, Cyrus\, Tubby\, N-Type\, Quest\, Clue Kid n Cotti\, Pinch\, Hench Crew\, Distance\, Hijak\, D'coy \, Kromestar n Cessman .. to name a few.\n\nThe main ingredients of Chef 's sets are energy and deep sub basslines whether it’s a half step rolle r or a 4x4 jah shaka style banger\, anything goes if Chefal likes it he’ ll play it simple. \"I play for the crowd and myself\, if I’m not having a good time how can I expect the listeners and ravers to? ..It's all ab out Bass weight maaaaan.\"\n\nhttp://www.myspace.com/dj_chef\n\n________ ________________________________________________________\n\n: TERMITE : volume\, edinburgh.scotland\n\nWhen Termite first visited Vancouver seve ral years back\, she played some of the first red gate parties and left quite a lasting impression. Vancouver was sad to see her go.. but now sh e's back! and Dubforms is very lucky to have her. Alice's crew in Scotla nd - Volume - basically have the Edinburgh scene on lock\, running regul ar successful events that host the likes of Skream and Benga and many mo re. Known to mix up dubstep\, grime\, baile funk\, bmore and more\, Term ite brings diverse selections to the table with the skills to match\, no t to mention her bright personality.\n\nhttp://www.myspace.com/alicewill ster / http://www.myspace.com/movolume\n\n______________________________ __________________________________\n\n: TAAL MALA & MAX ULIS : lighta! s ound\, 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 energy. Everyone who's heard this hard-hitting duo in action knows this is something to look forward to.

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

His works def y the expectations of the viewer\, as\nhe manipulates still photographs to introduce movement\, subtly accelerates\nor decelerates his films\, e dits separate recordings together\, and often\nemploys narratives that b ecome a secondary feature to the work.

Time Flies (inspired by Derek Bailey’s Company Week) serves as a summit meeting for some of the most creative improvisers from Canada and around the world. \n\nBritish improviser John Butcher is a saxophone master. He has create d a vocabulary which can accommodate any number of disparate musical con cepts ranging through free improvisation\, structured pieces\, multi-tra cked saxophone pieces\, and works with live electronics\, amplification\ , and feedback. Throughout the ’90s\, John played in many contexts: with singer Phil Minton\, in an electro-acoustic duo with violinist Phil Dur rant\, and with the Austrian contemporary-composition quartet Polwechsel . Other partners have included Gerry Hemingway\, Steve Beresford\, and n o-input mixing-board specialist Toshimaru Nakamura.\n\nDutch pianist / c omposer Cor Fuhler plies the keyboard with a focused energy that blends wacked-out humour\, an open sensibility to free improvisation\, and a wi cked sense of swing. In an effort to extend the sound possibilities of t he piano\, he rarely plays without augmentation from various preparatory tools. Cor works in various configurations\, from his trio with drummer Han Bennink and bassist Wilbert de Joode\, to his large ensemble Corkes tra\, to collaborations with George Lewis\, Michael Moore\, and Tobias D elius.\n\nSeattle-based violinist Eyvind Kang has been connected with th e dynamic Northwest music scene since 1995. During this time he’s been h eard on over 50 recordings\, collaborating with the likes of Bill Frisel l\, Sun City Girls\, Laurie Anderson\, Wayne Horvitz\, and John Zorn. A powerful performer\, Kang’s solo recordings blend molten improvisations with a kaleidoscope of dissonant colours. Virginal Co-Ordinates (Ipecac) is Kang’s sixth record—an excursion into minimalist territory with nods to Terry Riley and Tony Conrad.\n\nBritish-born Phil Minton is consider ed one of the world’s greatest vocal performers. Guardian jazz critic Jo hn Fordham: “He is a brilliant juggler of pure sound when working with f ree-improvising players…Minton’s range is astonishing—from a sustained r esonant baritone all the way from the Welsh valley traditions of his chi ldhood to a dazzling fire-work display of percussive sounds\, furious fa lsetto stutterings\, exclamations\, pleadings\, demands.” Minton’s abstr act expressionist sonic creations have been heard with a range of artist s including Mike Westbrook\, Fred Frith\, Roger Turner\, George Lewis\, and John Zorn.\n\nDanish guitarist Hasse Poulsen is among the most creat ive and inventive young improvisers in Europe. Dividing his time between Paris and Copenhagen\, he plays with Sound of Choice (Fredrik Lundin\, Lars Juul)\; Louis Sclavis on Napoli’s Walls\; Louis Moholo\; Edouard Pe rraud\; and an engaging trio with Joelle Leandre and François Houle. He has developed a unique way of playing the guitar\, incorporating prepara tions as well as a mix of both traditional and alternative techniques.\n \nToronto-born drummer / composer Harris Eisenstadt works in a wide vari ety of musical settings. Eisenstadt defies categorization as an artist: from ad hoc improvised music groups with renowned musicians such as Nels Cline\, Sam Rivers\, and Paul Rutherford\, he also plays in projects wi th musicians as varied as Bobby Bradford and Bernie Worell\; large ensem bles led by Vinny Golia\, Barry Guy\, and Yusef Lateef\; and world music bands with traditional musicians from Bali\, Gambia\, Morocco\, and Sen egal. The drummer has released five albums as a leader including the rec ent The Soul and Gone (482 Music).\n\nVancouver cellist Peggy Lee is a p illar in the city’s music community. She’s brought her wide-ranging skil ls as an improviser\, composer\, and new music practitioner to groups li ke Talking Pictures\, the contemporary classical ensemble Standing Wave\ , the Tony Wilson Septet\, and projects by singer-songwriter Veda Hille. As a leader of her own band she’s released three CDs featuring original compositions that explore the intriguing terrain between the melodic an d the abstract. She tours and records with Dave Douglas\, Wayne Horvitz\ , and Miya Masaoka.\n\nBassist Torsten Müller has made a huge contributi on to Vancouver’s improvised music community since arriving from Germany some six years ago. A gifted player\, he expands the parameters of his instrument through extended techniques. Müller has worked with trombonis t Gunter Christmann since the late ’70s and is a fixture at Vancouver’s Jazz Festival collaborating with the likes of Fred Lonberg-Holm\, Lori F reedman\, Kjell Nordeson\, and Chris Speed.\n\nThanks to:\nBritish Counc il\nRoyal Netherlands Embassy-Ottawa\nFonds Dijkdoorbraak\nDanish Jazz F ederation END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT LOCATION:SFU Harbour Centre DTSTAMP:20080729T211221Z UID:4958E51D-7019-4585-B992-607575B186CE-858481F0-5C2C-4F75-90B3-01CA743 8446C SEQUENCE:5 URL;VALUE=URI:http://www.geist.com/yahgulanaas-michael-nicoll DTSTART;TZID=America/Vancouver:20080827T190000 SUMMARY:REMEMBER:\nA presentation and discussion with\nMichael Nicoll Ya hgulanaas\n DTEND;TZID=America/Vancouver:20080827T200000 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT LOCATION:memelab DTSTAMP:20080115T223839Z UID:817F44BA-9CFF-4A64-A895-40968BD08493-858481F0-5C2C-4F75-90B3-01CA743 8446C SEQUENCE:1 URL;VALUE=URI:http://www.myspace.com/herjazznoisecollective DTSTART;TZID=America/Vancouver:20080123T203000 SUMMARY:open jam - her jazz noise collective\n DTEND;TZID=America/Vancouver:20080123T220000 DESCRIPTION:Wednesdays 8:30-10 pm\n\nher jazz noise collective is an exp erimental music network for women in Vancouver.

Spanning a period of over four years\, thi s body of work integrates photography\, text and video in a site-specifi c installation for the Centre A\, Vancouver International Centre for Con temporary Asian Art\, Canada.\n\nSituated on the outskirts of Taipei on a hillside by Keelung River\, the neglected Treasure Hill area has large ly been forgotten by the majority of Taipei residents. Once a military post\, the hillside was illegally occupied by soldiers and their familie s who had lived there during the 60’s. These squatters built simple stru ctures and houses\, and were later joined by migrants from the countrysi de. During the 80s\, as many as 200 households lived there. Due to the l ack of planning\, Treasure Hill was slum-like\, crowded and disorderly. Several generations came and went\, until merely a few dozen middle-lowe r class households remained and the neighborhood was slated for demoliti on. But through concerted campaigning and the efforts of cultural and s ocial activists\, experts and scholars dating back to the 1980s\, the ar ea was preserved.\n\n \n\nIn 2004\, Wei-Li Yeh took up residence in Trea sure Hill following a two months artist- in-residence program hosted by the Taipei Culture Bureau in the community. Yeh and his collaborators ca rried out four phases of the on-site Treasure Hill Tea + Photo(THTP) Pro ject. During the next three years\, Yeh primarily employed the medium of photography and text in his artistic practice while concurrently beginn ing the process of converting abandoned houses into a modest art center. Yu-Hsin Wu joined the project during Phase III\, and together with Yeh continued to document the changes that took place in Treasure Hill throu gh video and photography. By the end of 2006\, this art center grew to i nclude a teahouse\, a museum which housed years of collected objects fro m the neighborhood\, a darkroom and classroom\, an exhibition space\, a photo studio\, as well as an outdoor garden and rooftop space for perfor mance art – venues for public exhibition\, cultural activities and long- term interactions with the community.\n\n \n\nIn Phase Five / Oversight\ , Yeh and Wu seek to reexamine their Treasure Hill experiences and proce sses\, focusing primarily on the works made in Phase IV\, while reflecti ng on the ramifications of their departure from the community. Their Tr easure Hill residency included an active social practice and “spatial pr actice”\, whereby they ceased to be merely observers and documentarians\ , but also became an important part of the community and its rebuilding. By interacting with the community\, and synthesizing the discarded obje cts found in the ruins\, they gradually developed a new individual and c ollective way of identifying with a place.\n\nAnother trajectory for thi s curatorial project “Oversight” emphasizes the parallels between Treasu re Hill and Vancouver Downtown East Side\, where Centre A is situated\, in the context of urban renewal plans. As old and poor urban districts\, they are both inhabited by fringe and underprivileged sectors of societ y. Despite widely divergent cultural backgrounds and contexts\, they are both sites and objects of compromise or sacrifice during the process of urban gentrification. Using the cultural and physical settings of Treas ure Hill and Downtown East Side as a starting point for discussion\, “Ov ersight” hopes to draw attention to the marginalization of social spaces within society. Based on the shared experiences of both places and thro ugh the dialogues created by the exhibition\, we wish to explore how art istic practice and social activism can actively intervene in the face of complex cultural realities and provide compelling provocations and idea s on the preservation of local history and culture. \n\n \n\nWei-Li Yeh is a Taipei based photographer\, educated in the US at Rhode Island Sch ool of Design and the University of Florida. Since early 90’s he has exh ibited internationally.\n\n \n\nYu-Hsin Wu is a multi-media artist based in Taipei\, She works in collaboration with Wei-Li Yeh on the THTP proj ect.\n\n \n\nAmy Cheng is an independent curator based in Taiwan. She us ed to live in Vancouver and curated Invisible City at Centre A in 2003.

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 DTSTART;TZID=America/Vancouver:20081114T180000 LOCATION:CentreA SUMMARY:Opening UID:A5CACC2C-3DA2-4E84-9B43-35298B4D9F73-858481F0-5C2C-4F75-90B3-01CA743 8446C SEQUENCE:5 DTSTAMP:20081114T040406Z DURATION:PT1H END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT LOCATION:vivo DTSTAMP:20080520T034747Z UID:E9728CB1-CDD8-4D73-B9AB-1D591826B3E3-858481F0-5C2C-4F75-90B3-01CA743 8446C SEQUENCE:9 DTSTART;TZID=America/Vancouver:20080524T220000 SUMMARY:ALL SYSTEMS SPECIAL - vancouver's dubstep & bass music monthy. l i-li-li-lighta! sound.

EVENT | Cineworks | THOUGHT ON FILM VIII | AUG 27\n----- -------------------------------------------------------------------\nTHO UGHT ON FILM VIII\nMONTHLY READING + DISCUSSION GROUP EXPLORING CINEMA + \nCINEMATIC PRACTICE THROUGH WRITTEN WORDS\n\nA monthly reading + discus sion group\, Thought on Film aims to promote\ncritical thought around fi lm product and practice through community-based\ndiscussion. Rooted in o ur membership but open to the public\, Thought on\nFilm fosters the clos e reading of texts confronting issues in contemporary\,\ncutting-edge ci nematic practice and philosophy.\n\nProceeding from last month’s meeting \, August’s discussion will focus on\nSlavoj Zizek’s The Pervert’s Guide to Cinema\, Part 3. The Pervert’s Guide\nto Cinema offers an introducti on into some of Zizek's most exciting ideas\non fantasy\, reality\, sexu ality\, subjectivity\, desire\, materiality and\ncinematic form. Part 3 plays with appearances. Appearances are not\ndeceiving\, but extremely e fficient. If film itself is structured through\ncuts\, edits and missing scenes\, then so too is our own subjective\nexperience. This is perhaps why we can believe in cinema - as well as other\nsystems of faith\, pat ernal\, religious and ideological. Zizek shows us that\nthe key to cinem a is beyond the narrative\, beyond the 'story' that we\nwitness. What pr ovides the density of cinematic enjoyment is material form\nbeyond inter pretation. Interested parties are encouraged to join in Thought\non film at any point and to draw strange connections to their practice\, be\nit film or not.

Much of her early critical work investigated questi ons of spectatorial identification and its relationship to the male gaze \, and her writings\, particularly the 1975 essay Visual Pleasure and Na rrative Cinema\, helped establish feminist film theory as a legitimate f ield of study.\n\nBetween 1974 and 1982 Mulvey co-wrote and co-directed with her husband\, Peter Wollen\, six projects: theoretical films\, deal ing in the discourse of feminist theory\, semiotics\, psychoanalysis and leftist politics. The first of these\, Penthesilea: Queen of the Amazon s (1974) explored concerns central to Mulvey's writings: the position of women in relation to patriarchal myth\, symbolic language and male fant asy. Penthesilea represents an experimental British venture into territo ry pioneered by the likes of Jean-Luc Godard. With its counter-cinema st yle and relentlessly didactic approach\, however\, its appeal was inevit ably limited to a restricted audience.\n\nThe most influential of Mulvey and Wollen's collaborative films\, Riddles of the Sphinx (1977)\, prese nted avant-garde film as a space in which female experience could be exp ressed. Remarkable formalistic innovation\, notably 360-degree pans\, i nform the film's content\, describing the mother's loss of and search fo r identity. The result is a challenging\, forceful and intelligent .\n\n Mulvey's current research interests include: Rethinking feminist film th eory. Theories of technology and aspects of technological change in film and television. The aesthetics of stillness in the moving image: avant- garde and fiction. The 'new woman' and the cinema in the late 1920s. Mel odrama and world cinema\n\nLaura Mulvey is Professor of Film and Media S tudies at Birkbeck College\, University of London.\n\n END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT LOCATION:Lotus Sound Lounge (455 Abbott Street) DTSTAMP:20060612T235710Z UID:C25C7831-FA6E-11DA-9172-000D933194E0-858481F0-5C2C-4F75-90B3-01CA743 8446C SEQUENCE:4 DTSTART;TZID=America/Vancouver:20060612T210000 SUMMARY:SOLVENT and ECTOMORPH DTEND;TZID=America/Vancouver:20060612T235900 DESCRIPTION:This week (June 12) hell welcomes two very special guests: S OLVENT and ECTOMORPH performing live!

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\nnarcissis m\, objectification\, and the processes of representation\, Guy's\nworks can be understood as part of a complex interrogation of\nidentity-relat ed image making.\"\n\nThese works first resurfaced in 2007 in the exhibi tion \"Early Work\"\n— organized by White Columns\, the artist Marilyn M inter\, and\ncurator Fabienne Stephan. Since then Guy has received criti cal acclaim for\nthese photo works which have subsequently been shown as a solo exhibition\nat White Columns\, and in group shows at the Metropo litan Museum\, New York\,\nand Wilkinson Gallery\, London. Shadows is fe atured in the current issue of\nBlind Spot magazine.\n\n\n\nThe Apartmen t is also very pleased to present Elastic\, an exhibition by\nVancouver based artist Kika Thorne. Largely know for experimental\ndocumentary fil m/video and collaborations with anarchist groups such as\nthe Free Schoo l\, Thorne's recent art has evolved into highly expressive\nabstract for ms. Through the use of bungee and metal loops (Accord\, 2008)\nor magnet s and metal mud (Magnetic Drawing\, 2008) these works emerge from\nan on going material fascination with tension to produce a negotiation\, an\na greement and in rare cases\, a 
resolution.\n\nIntegrated into these for mal metaphors is Thorne's conceptual commitment\nto an investigation of our ambient schema\, here through the use of\nknowledge systems which ev olve understated and eventual. A guiding force\nfor this recent work are the cosmological charts of Johannes Kepler. Born in\n1571\, in Württemb erg\, Germany\, Kepler published Mysterium Cosmographicum\,\n1596\, Harm onice Mundi\, 1618 and the Epitome Astronomiae Copernicanae\,\n1618–21\, which mapped the antique solar system\, realized equations to\ncalibrat e planetary orbits and proposed a physical explanation of the\nmotions o f planets\, namely\, \"magnetic arms\" extending from the sun. In\nSong of Immanence\, (2008) Thorne employs the algorithm of planetary\nmovemen t as a musical score\, making legible the literal harmony of the\nsolar system. Singers may produce the drone of each planet\, transforming\nKep ler's notation into song. Their collective harmonies sound the years\npa ssing in space\, the effect of being beyond the event horizon\, inside t he\nblack hole.\n\nKika Thorne received her MFA from the University of V ictoria\, BC and has\nexhibited extensively including projects at Murray Guy\, New York\,\nContemporary Art Gallery\, Vancouver\, Musee d'art co ntemporain\, Montreal\,\nPortikus\, Frankfurt\, and the Power Plant\, To ronto.\n\nPlease join us for a reception for the artists on Saturday\, S eptember\n13th\, 8-10pm.\n\nAt this time we would also like to congratul ate Noam Gonick and Luis Jacob\non the astounding success of their colla boration Wildflowers of Manitoba\n(2007). We had the distinct pleasure o f exhibiting an editioned portfolio\nof on-location shots from this proj ect as our inaugural exhibition in\nDecember\, 2007\, just after its deb ut at the Biennale de Montreal\n(commissioned by Wayne Baerwaldt). Since then Wildflowers of Manitoba has\nshown at the Museum of Contemporary C anadian Art as a part of the Toronto\nInt'l Film Festival\, Plug In ICA\ , Winnipeg\, the Berlin International Film\nFestival\, UBC Belkin Fine A rt Gallery\, Vancouver (who purchased the work\nfor it's collection) and the Glenbow Museum\, Calgary.

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 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT LOCATION:Centre A: Vancouver International Centre for Contemporary Asian Art\n2 West Hastings Street\, Vancouver DTSTAMP:20081215T042329Z UID:AEF70ACC-2F61-42DC-87BA-56B722F96E9A-858481F0-5C2C-4F75-90B3-01CA743 8446C SEQUENCE:7 DTSTART;TZID=America/Vancouver:20081217T200000 SUMMARY:The 13th OurTube : New Sound Appreciation DTEND;TZID=America/Vancouver:20081217T220000 DESCRIPTION:FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE\n\nCentre A presents\nThe 13th OurTube : New Sound Appreciation\nHosts: Joomi Seo & Christopher Olson\n\nWedne sday\, December 17th\, 8:00pm - 10:00pm\nFree Admission.

DTEND:20090621T020000 CATEGORIES: DESCRIPTION:Meet Skream: Croydon's musical wonderkid. 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 terri tories\, \"Cheeky...\" into Arabia\, his unreleased mixes of Sunship fus ed Jamaican dancehall smut with hooky Kraftwerk melodies. \"Smiling Face \" broke out cheerful reggae skanks on dancefloors. \n\nBut his biggest tune was yet to come. Enter \"Midnight Request Line\" - on Tempa records - an anthemic explosion of electro arpeggios and dub sub-bass. It's a t une you can sing along to: Skream has it as his own ringtone. When it go t dropped by DJ Youngsta at club Forward» grime dons Wiley\, Jammer and the rest of Roll Deep began to shock out\, flashing their lighters out o f hard earned respect. The flip of this mighty release is bassline boome r \"I\,\" an excursion into deep dub basslines and shifting cinematic te xtures. \n\n***Since the huge success of “Midnight Request Line” UK & In ternational DJ gigs have been coming thick and fast\, with Skream gettin g a rapturous response at New York’s rammed Dub War event\, as well as a t shows in Leeds\, Belgium\, Bristol & Germany. He’s also been busy rele asing classic after classic on the popular Skreamizm EPs\, now into the second volume. From the Amen heavy rinse out of ‘Lightning Dub’\, to the masterclass in LFO-wobbling sub-bass ‘Blipstream’\, these tracks are re wound at every dubstep rave\, have received glowing reviews and are appe aring in sets by DJs as diverse as Mr Scruff\, Freq Nasty & Ricardo Vill alobos.***\n\nIt shouldn't come as any surprise he likes sub-bass\, Skre am has grown up around it. His older brother was a member of Croydon's n otorious jungle hell-raising raving outfit Intanatty Crew\, which featur ed 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 fo r his up-for-it behaviour at parties or out on the town. In fact he's th e only known music artist with a subdued alter-ego. Most rock stars are quiet by day with flamboyant alter-egos. Our wonderkid is the other way around. But then that's wonderkids like Skream for you: unique. \n\nSupp orted by Vancouver's own LIGHTA!

Gifford's creative practice includes such diverse materials as ice\, jade\, marble\, and magic. His sculptural installation will transform th e gallery into an unusual cabinet of curiosities. His unique strategies as an artist combine elements of old-world artistry with a keen underst anding of contemporary culture. The exhibition will reference contents o f childhood pockets and a collection of sympathetic magical weapons\, ta lismans\, and disguises. Prepare to be amazed as this exhibition comes t o Vancouver. Don't miss the surveillance bee hive\, floating equestrian statuary\, jade gummy bear\, and chicken beak museum. This artist and ma gician channels a mysterious suggestive confusion - the kind used to cur e disease\, secure love\, and offer protection in battle while predictin g showers\, smoke\, and pollen. You can even touch it!\n\nDavid Gifford was raised by geese but eventually shed his wild man persona and assumed the air of a gentleman. He began to study magic after sustaining a fall from a trapeze. After attending the Ontario college of Art he went on t o study in Florence\, Italy and later received a BFA from the Nova Scoti a College of Art and Design\, and an MFA from the University of Victoria . In 2002 Gifford co-founded the Ministry of Casual Living and was the d irector/curator there from 2002 - 2004. He has been an artist-in-residen ce at Sir Wilfred Grenville College in Cornerbrook\, Newfoundland\; the Confederation Centre\, Charlottetown\, Prince Edward Island\; and the Kl ondike Institute of Art and Culture in Dawson City\, Yukon. Gifford is a beekeeper and travels his magic show across the Canadian North by train \, bush plane\, and freighter canoe.\n\n\n\n\n\nAccess Artist Run Centre gratefully acknowledges the support of the Canada Council for the Arts\ , the City of Vancouver\, the Government of BC through the BC Arts Counc il\, the BC Gaming Commission\, our members and volunteers.\n\n\n \n Access is a member of PAARC [Pacific Association of Artist Run Centres]. \n\nAccess Artist Run Centre\n\n206 Carrall St\nVancouver\, BC\nV6B 2J1\ nTel: +604 689 2907\nwww.vaarc.ca\nvaarc@telus.net\n\n__________________ _____________________________\nPAARClist mailing list\nPAARClist@paarc.c a\nhttp://paarc.ca/mailman/listinfo/paarclist_paarc.ca\n\nNo virus found in this incoming message.\nChecked by AVG Free Edition.\nVersion: 7.1.3 92 / Virus Database: 268.5.3/331 - Release Date: 03/05/2006\n END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Vancouver:20061129T190000 SUMMARY:Screening and Discussion: La Commune UID:C59AFF7F-78DA-11DB-8336-000D933194E0-858481F0-5C2C-4F75-90B3-01CA743 8446C DTSTAMP:20061120T210455Z DESCRIPTION:ECI | La Commune Screening and Discussion Group | NOV 22 & 29\n----------------------------------------------------------------\n\n La Commune Discussion Group is a two evening event\, hosted by Emily Car r\nmasters student Vytas Narusevicius\, and dedicated to the viewing and \ndiscussion of La Commune\, Peter Watkins� rarely seen 1999 film.

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. Both jazz and cla ssical traditions\, the rap and hip-hop music he grew up with\, the avan t-garde lineages in Europe and America\, and the traditions of improvise d music over the last 40 years. He has a keen interest in how issues suc h as intention\, practice\, community\, and musical content effect the r ole music plays in the socio-political-economic reality\; and how this r eality effects the music.\n--------------------------------------------- ------------------- END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Vancouver:20071013T130000 DTEND;TZID=America/Vancouver:20071013T173000 SUMMARY:VISUAL MEDIA with Pd UID:780AA13A-6D2C-11DC-8C2F-000D933194E0-858481F0-5C2C-4F75-90B3-01CA743 8446C SEQUENCE:3 DTSTAMP:20071011T210043Z DESCRIPTION:4 sessions: 18 hours Cost: $220 / $185\nOctober 13\, 20\, 2 7 & November 3\, 1-5:30 pm END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Vancouver:20081115T200000 LOCATION:56 West Pender SUMMARY:Party DJ UID:996F680A-7543-4552-90E8-2898257CF3E8-858481F0-5C2C-4F75-90B3-01CA743 8446C SEQUENCE:5 DTSTAMP:20081115T222413Z DURATION:PT1H END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Vancouver:20090711T160000 SUMMARY:PD Sonic UID:C3530E32-4AF0-4DFE-9F7C-C9FABD6D9E8C-858481F0-5C2C-4F75-90B3-01CA743 8446C DTSTAMP:20090414T031324Z SEQUENCE:2 DURATION:PT3H END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT CLASS:PUBLIC LOCATION:Lotus\, Honey & Lick Nightclubs\, 455 Abbott St\, Vancouver\, B C DTSTAMP:20090429T001135 UID:D0542CBE-A48D-46F5-9A98-7716002A3C38-858481F0-5C2C-4F75-90B3-01CA743 8446C LAST-MODIFIED:20090429T001135 SEQUENCE:805962 URL;VALUE=URI:http://www.facebook.com/event.php?eid=70529323470 CREATED:20090419T161853 STATUS:CONFIRMED PARTSTAT:TENTATIVE DTSTART:20090517T213000 SUMMARY:Lotus Long Weekend :: Victoria Day Bash DTEND:20090518T030000 CATEGORIES: DESCRIPTION:Vancouver's most infamous 3-Room Long Weekend party returns! \n\nWith summer just on the horizon things are heating up at the LLW\, a s Intimate and Taal bring you yet another epic installment of VanCity's most infamous long weekend event.

T his group of artists\, sometimes\ncalled the Reductionist school\, mix c omposition and improvisation to\nform a music for which silence is as po tent as sound. Dynamics are\nimportant\, and part of the aesthetic invol ves extremely quiet gestures\nthat draw the listener in\, focusing the e ar on subtle detail.\nJuxtaposition is a key component\, as the expected and the unexpected\nare deftly employed elements of composition. Krebs\ , a master of\nmusical texture\, may seem more like a sculptor than a gu itar player. A\nclassically trained performer\, Krebs has radically rein vented the\nguitar to suit her music.\nShe lays the guitar—an amplified one—flat on a table and precisely\ncarves out sonic shapes and colors fr om a variety of objects applied\nto the instrument. The result is fascin ating. A window between action\nand sound is made clear. Process and com position are revealed. Through\namplification\, microscopic sound is enl arged\, as with a magnifying\nglass\, to become the material for music-m aking.\n\nVancouver-based percussionist Jeffrey Allport approaches the p hysical\nnature of his chosen instrument through a variety of preparati ons and\nimplements to liberate a unique palette of sounds. Respecting e ach\ncarefully extracted tone\, thump and scrape in addition to the sile nce\nfrom which they are borne\, his exploratory improvisations inhabit\ nminute sound worlds\, eschewing the grand gesture. In addition to solo\ nwork\, Allport has enjoyed a lengthy collaboration with Tim Olive\,\nre leasing three CD's since 1998. They have also toured in Canada\, the\nUS \, Western Europe and Japan. Summer 2007 saw the LP release of his\nduo with Tetuzi Akiyama\, recorded during a small tour of the Northwest\nin the summer of 2006. Frequently participating in once-only groupings\nhas led him to performing and recording with a wide variety of\nimprovisers \, including saxophonist John Butcher\, trumpeters Axel\nDörner and Greg Kelley\, prepared guitar maverick Keith Rowe\, harpist\nRhodri Davies\, and many others.\n\n\nPerforming from 1991–2001 as leader of DIXIE'S DE ATH POOL\, Lee\nHutzulak produced miniature studio epics\, characterized by a startling\nvariety of atmospheres\, evocative vocals\, melodies\, and quirky pop\nhooks. Moving from Victoria to Vancouver in 2000 was the beginning of\nthe end for DDP\, and after the release of Soon in 2001 t he live\nensemble pretty much ceased to exist. Work in the studio contin ued\nthough: numerous sessions with DDP regulars and a few special guest s\nwere crushed\, sifted\, stirred together and over the course of a cou ple\nyears crystallized in what The Wire called \"A THING OF DELICATE\nA TMOSPHERIC BEAUTY\" — Princess Builder.\n\nLee's music has always struck a balance between song and sound\,\ncombining electro-acoustic ambience \, musique concrète\, and\nimprovisation.

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. 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 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Vancouver:20081211T180000 SUMMARY:Group Art Walk: Wade in Wack's Vadage at VAG UID:6C9D8FA4-B091-41D5-9016-273A6228B528-858481F0-5C2C-4F75-90B3-01CA743 8446C DTSTAMP:20081211T224905Z SEQUENCE:1 DURATION:PT2H15M END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DURATION:PT1H LOCATION:102.7 FM DTSTAMP:20080304T184912Z UID:30AE02CD-8321-44A3-8CAD-BC599F14284B-858481F0-5C2C-4F75-90B3-01CA743 8446C SEQUENCE:7 URL;VALUE=URI:http://coopradio.org/listen DTSTART;TZID=America/Vancouver:20080305T210000 SUMMARY:CFRO - Soundscape Show with Phil Tomson END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT CLASS:PUBLIC LOCATION:the sinking ship\, 56 e (quebec st) 5th avenue\, Vancouver\, BC DTSTAMP:20090428T005416 UID:718C9C07-9E7F-41FE-913C-9B1AAFEA59EC-858481F0-5C2C-4F75-90B3-01CA743 8446C LAST-MODIFIED:20090428T005416 SEQUENCE:461220 URL;VALUE=URI:http://www.facebook.com/event.php?eid=73644469441 CREATED:20090422T164716 STATUS:CONFIRMED PARTSTAT:ACCEPTED DTSTART:20090504T200000 SUMMARY:a housewarming affair featuring DB Buxton + guests- for real th is time DTEND:20090505T020000 CATEGORIES: DESCRIPTION:http://www.facebook.com/event.php?eid=73644469441 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DURATION:PT1H LOCATION:740 East Pender Street (between Heatley and Hawks) DTSTAMP:20060824T164230Z UID:55A9DE16-338F-11DB-847D-000D933194E0-858481F0-5C2C-4F75-90B3-01CA743 8446C SEQUENCE:2 URL;VALUE=URI:http://www.bodgers-and-kludgers-cooperative-art-parlour.ca DTSTART;TZID=America/Vancouver:20060825T180000 SUMMARY:opening -
