Found Objects Night Saturday, April 5th, 8:00 - approx. 10:30 pm 21 Grand Gallery 449B 23rd St near Broadway Oakland, California $6-10 Bring objects from home and they'll play 'em! Avant-garde, experimental and/or electronic musicians will spontaneously create music using only items submitted by the audience for sound sources. With: Gino Robair David Kendall (from LA) Andre Custodio Stephen Ruiz Please bring one or more objects (just about anything from around the house or outside) to be used as sound sources by the artists. You'll get them back at the end of each night. The musicians are allowed to bring equipment to sample, alter and manipulate sounds. NOTE: Please do NOT bring hazardous or radioactive materials, wild animals or firearms. For more information, contact Matt Davignon at 510-268-8213. Gino Robair "is an enormously talented percussionist, with a thorough-going musicality and an instinct for the unexpected," says The Penguin Guide to Jazz on CD. A core member of the Splatter Trio, Gino is well known for his fascination for resonating objects. He also holds two masters degrees from Mills College - in Composition and Electronic Music. David Kendall is an improviser and sound artist from the Los Angeles area, currently studying Composition/New Media at the California Institute of the Arts with David Rosenboom. Much of DK's work focuses on electronic and acoustic feedback systems, or seeks to develop a common improvisational language among traditional, non-traditional, and electronic instrumental performance practices. Andre Custodio is a San Francisco born Multi-Instrumentalist / Sound Designer / Percussionist with a ten year history as a sonic maverick. His performances and recordings range from the fragmentedly neurotic to the semi-calm and aurally ambient. Stephen Ruiz (aka Zygote) uses the mechanized process of electronic music production and combines the expression of complex human feelings to create sound art. The tools of his output are computers, tape recorders, wires and other conduits of noise. _________________________________________________________________ Protect your PC - get McAfee.com VirusScan Online http://clinic.mcafee.com/clinic/ibuy/campaign.asp?cid=3963
