SUMMARY:do-over series: treasure mouth
DESCRIPTION:Collaborating with Lisa Mezzacappa (bass)\, Jordan Glenn (drums)\, Kathleen Quillian\, Gilbert Guerrero\, and Ellie Vanderlip (performative 16mm projection) to bring Matthew Sperry’s Treasure Mouth score to the monthly Do Over series at Shapeshifters Cinema. \nOnce described as “hackable karoake with live visuals and improvised text” this score was pulled from the journals of the late Matthew Sperry. He envisioned an ensemble of singers and musicians attempting to keep up with someone writing extemporaneously on an overhead projector. We’ve envisioned it a couple times\, and learned that serving latkes with applesauce and sour cream at the gig is very important. Expect those. \nJohn Shiurba conducts this edition\, with \n\nVal Esway\, vocals\nKarl Evangelista\, guitar\nDavid James\, guitar and vocal\nDan Plonsey\, reeds\nGino Robair\, electronics\nMaw Shein Win\, extemporaneous writer\nCory Wright\, reeds\n(and perhaps two more to be announced)

SUMMARY:redline redefined: willow and grist
DESCRIPTION:From 2020 – 2022\, I created five graphic scores for Redline Redefined\, Thingamajigs’ commissioning project that catalyzes artist investigations of East Bay historic (and current) redlining. \nThe scores were briefly available to perform at the five sites that inspired them\, if you knew to look for an unusual real estate sign\, and now they are emerging as small films for various ensembles. \nAt this matinee launch party for Zachary James Watkins (commissioned in the second cohort of Redline Redefined artists) I’ll be showing two films: WILLOW and GRIST accompanied by affiliates of of the duo B. Experimental Band\, instigated by Lisa Mezzacappa and Jason Levis and \n\nSteve Adams\nDarren Johnston\nKevin CK Lo\nKjell Nordeson\nErika Oba\nDavid Slusser\nPolly Springhorn\nSelf\, on that bass drum as tabula rasa

SUMMARY:thingamajigs performance group
DESCRIPTION:Thingamajigs Performance Group convenes to contemplate group member Keith Evans‘s participation in the exhibition Loss and Gain: Text Isle also featuring work by \n\nStella Zhang\nRobin Dintiman\nSha Sha Higby\nChelsea Stewart\n\n\nAnd additional performances by \n\nZachary James Watkins\nRoco Cordova\n\nKeith and Rae write \n\nTurtle island. Text isle. We are marking our emotion\, arked on the coast of the ring of fire. Swollen with a haunting at a vista point in the mineral epoch of the Anthropocene\, we take off our shoes and cobble an active studio: everyday objects\, food\, tea\, the unheard hum of the ever-expanding universe\, and our attachments. All unmake-remake their places. In the swirl of landscape transformations\, catastrophic Fires-Floods-Earthquakes-Tsunamis\, how do we create beyond the apocalyptic?\n\nReconstruction-destruction of the geologic environment pushes on ancient frames\, describes our interdependence\, co-senses and inscribes our implications. If we look\, listen\, drink\, and breathe in the loss of the known\, what do we exhale? Anguish? Wonder? Ecstasy?\n\n\nThe presence of grief is woven in experience\, spooled by polarities. Here\, these artists are compelled to work in this dualism to transform emotions that bind into a boundless sky of empathy; into affirming arrays of address and inquiry. What can we do when the not-knowing of mystery looms? Spin and weave. \n\n\nIn poetic irony\, attempts along lines of different experiences create convergences while attempts along lines of similar experiences create divergences. The weave of these moments cleave off shadows of impressions—in our social lives\, family histories\, lost selves\, and friends grown away; stories of wounds and marks that stretch our bodies to the limits of muscle and movement; ovulation and the tissue of birth processes. \nWhat might we\, as participants\, drop? What might we yet hold? And what holds us? \n\n\nExpect Rae Diamond on voice\, gesture\, and objects\, Edward Schocker on glass and reeds\, and me and Keith on electronics and performative projection.

DESCRIPTION:Performing solo and duo improvisations at the 28th Annual Dionysian Festival at the Mary Sano Studio of Duncan Dancing. Mary brings a wide cross-section of movement and sound artists together each year to celebrate Isadora Duncan’s birth\, and I am grateful to be in their presence. Expect small percussion. \nHideo Sekino plays shakuhashi according to komusô\, a style enhancing breathings that Western traditions considered to be unpleasant to the ear\, but I consider to be transcendent\, as will you. \nCalling to reserve a spot is highly recommended. \n\n\n\n\nDancers \n\nMary Sano\nMegan Nicely\nCourtney Ramm\nNancy Perez\n\nMusicians    \n\nMutsuko Dohi\nTony Sano Chapman\nMerrill Collins\nScott Thompson\nHideo\nSelf\n\n  \n\n\n\n\n

SUMMARY:Moe!kestra! Piece No. 1: Death of a Piano
DESCRIPTION:Playing pitched percussion for Moe! Staiano’s Moe!kestra!\, comprised of 50 musicians. No lie. \nThis performance reprises Moe!’s first work for large ensemble: Piece No. 1: Death of a Piano. It’s everything you imagine it to be\, based on the title\, and an ecstatic individual performance by Moe! who simultaneously conducts the ensemble and murders the piano\, a sound one should hear before one can no longer hear anything at all. \nSpecial bonus: if you live to the end of the show (which is not hard if you’re wearing ear and eye protection) you can take home the xylophone I’m playing this piece on.

SUMMARY:do-over series: avec romus
DESCRIPTION:Convening (percussively\, chromatically) with Rent Romus (reedily) for the kind of inimitable scene of the monthly Do Over series at Shapeshifters Cinema. \nCurated by Lisa Mezzacappa and Jordan Glenn\, the series pairs ensembles (first half) with elevated hippie jams (second half) convening curators\, invited performers\, and Shapeshifterians Kathleen Quillian\, Gilbert Guerrero\, and Ellie Vanderlip (performative 16mm projection) exploring the mind’s powerful urge to connect sound and vision. \nRent and I play together so rarely that when we play together we always ask… why do we not play together more often? Over the years we have both grown as people and practitioners\, so that in each meeting we appear to be playing for the first time again. It’s kinda magical we think\, and then\, later\, we agree it was actually magical. \nSecond set with\nRob Ewing – trombone\nKevin Robinson – saxophones\nJordan Glenn – drums \nadvance tickets or at the door
