DATs Saved ! And Experimental Intermedia NYC at Subtropics Miami FL this weekend
by Katherine Liberovskaya 22 Apr '25

22 Apr '25

Dear friends of Experimental Intermedia, We did it – well, actually YOU did it !!! We saved the DATs !!!. Thanks to your generous contributions, EIF raised enough money to transfer the DAT recordings from 20+ years of events to digital files. The process is in fact almost done (at this writing DATs 251 to 400 have been picked up by our amazing engineer Garry Rindfuss and are being transferred). So EIF greatly thanks all of you who helped and expressed their understanding of the need for this process to go forward ! We would especially like to recognize a major benefactor to our digitization process: Mr Les Shimmin from Sydney, Australia. Mr. Shimmin, who passed away in 2024 and his son, Nick Shimmin, who agreed to use a portion of his estate to promote experimental music and art. Indeed, after occasional meetings with Phill Niblock over the last 15 years, Nick understood the importance of the digitization of the EI DAT recordings. Many thanks on behalf of Experimental Intermedia, and all the musicians and composers who are assisted by this generous donation, we thank you for this show of support for our efforts. Nick has also asked that we mention his recently opened new experimental arts venue in Sydney, The Red House, and anyone visiting Australia who is interested in performing or exhibiting there should contact him at duxextra(a)gmail.com ******** As well, Experimental Intermedia is at Subtropics, Miami FL, this April 26th and 27th. It is a tribute to Phill Niblock, long time director of Experimental Intermedia, who passed away in 2024, to the centennial, which is this year, of Elaine Summers who founded Experimental Intermedia in 1968, and to the work of Experimental Intermedia over the years. https://subtropics.org/author/sfca-isawsubtropics/ Deering Estate + Subtropics + Cyland with support from Miami-Dade Department of Cultural Affairs present EI — Subtropics Tribute Mini-Festival of Experimental Music and Film Deering Estate Blackbox Theater Hosts Current Artist and Director of Experimental Intermedia, NYC, Katherine Liberovskaya in a Weekend of Events Celebrating the Iconic Legacy of Phill Niblock, Elaine Summers, and Experimental Intermedia Foundation NYC Saturday, April 26, 2025 | 4 PM — Elaine Summers Saturday, April 26, 2025 | 6 PM — Katherine Liberovskaya Sunday, April 27, 2025 | 4 PM — Phill Niblock Deering Estate Blackbox Theater Visitor's Center Parking Lot 7220 SW 168th Street Miami, FL 33157 Free and open to the public R.S.V.P. at: https://cts.vresp.com/c/?SFCAisawsubtropics/962d21274a/TEST/bfa946fed4 Eventbrite.com Palmetto Bay, FL — Join us for a weekend dedicated to the pioneering spirit of Phill Niblock, Elaine Summers and the Experimental Intermedia Foundation, presented by the Subtropics Organization under the artistic direction of Deering Estate’s artist in residence Gustavo Matamoros.

BIOGRAPHICAL INFORMATION Elaine Summers (1925 – 2014) was an American choreographer, experimental filmmaker, and intermedia pioneer. She was a founding member of the original workshop-group that would form the Judson Dance Theater and she significantly contributed to the interaction of film and dance, as well as the expansion of dance into other related disciplines, such as visual art, film, and theater. She fostered the expansion of performing dance in new, often outdoor locations. Her movement approach Kinetic Awareness offers a comprehensive perspective on human movement and dance. In 1968 Summers founded the non-profit Experimental Intermedia (The Elaine Summers Experimental Intermedia Foundation) to provide organizational support for artists working in intermedia forms.

Involved in experimental video since the 80’s, she has produced numerous single-channel video art pieces, video installations and video performances, as well as works in other media, that have been shown around the world. Since 2001 her work predominantly focuses on the intersection of moving image with sound/music in various both ephemeral and fixed forms (projections, installations, performances), notably through collaborations with many composers and sound artists in improvised live video+sound concert situations where her live visuals seek to create improvisatory “music” for the eyes. For over 22 years she collaborated with composer/intermedia artist Phill Niblock on various live, video and installation projects. Other frequent collaborators include: Dafna Naphtali, Keiko Uenishi, Shelley Hirsch, Barbara Held, Mia Zabelka, Al Margolis (IF,BWANA), David Watson, among many others. In addition to her art work she curates events in experimental video/film, sound/music and A/V performance, notably the yearly Screen Compositions evenings at EI NYC since 2005 and, since 2006 the OptoSonic Tea salons (co-curated with Ursula Scherrer) in NYC and various nomadic locations in North America and Europe as well as on-line during the Covid pandemic. In 2014 she completed a PhD in art practice entitled “Improvisatory Live Visuals: Playing Images Like a Musical Instrument” at the Université du Québec à Montréal (UQAM). She is currently the artistic director of Experimental Intermedia NYC. www.facebook.com/liberovskaya Phill Niblock (1933-2024) was an intermedia artist using music, film, photography, video and computers. He was born in Indiana in 1933. Since the mid-60’s he was making music and intermedia performances which have been shown at numerous venues around the world. He made thick, loud drones of music, filled with microtones of instrumental timbres generating many other tones in the performance space. He said: “What I am doing with my music is to produce something without rhythm or melody, by using many microtones that cause movements very, very slowly.” Simultaneously, he would present films / videos looking at the movement of people working. Since 1985, he was the director of the Experimental Intermedia Foundation in New York – www.experimentalintermedia.org – where he had been an artist/member since 1968. He was the producer of Music and Intermedia presentations at EI from 1973 to 2023 and the curator of EI’s XI Records label until 2023. Phill Niblock’s music is available on the XI, Moikai, Mode, Matiere Memoire, Room 40, and Touch labels. DVDs of films and music are available on the Extreme label and Von Archive. Until 1995 he was a professor of film, video and photography at The College of Staten Island, the City University of New York. In 2014, he was the recipient of the prestigious John Cage Award from the Foundation for Contemporary Arts. www.phillniblock.com Experimental Intermedia Foundation NYC is a non-profit 501(c)(3) organization was directed from1985 to 2023 by Phill Niblock. Its current artist director is Katherine Liberovskaya. It was founded in 1968 by Elaine Summers to provide organizational support for artists working in intermedia forms. It has been presenting experimental music concerts and other intermedia work at its SOHO location since 1973, featuring both American and international composers and artists. Experimental Intermedia remains one of the principal venues for the presentation of untried work in New York City. The Foundation also manages its own recording label, XI Records, that continues to garner extremely positive press and radio coverage, both nationally and internationally. To date, the label has released 50 recordings, a majority of which are by American composers.

Last days in 2024 to SAVE THE DAT(S) ! - (EI NYC audio recordings 1986-2009)
by Katherine Liberovskaya 30 Dec '24

30 Dec '24

To reply to this email, please use - info(a)experimentalintermedia.org <pniblock(a)compuserve.com> Dear Friends of Experimental Itermedia, Last 2024 chance to *SAVE THE *DAT*(S) !* Just a friendly reminder that these are the last days in 2024 for fully tax-deductible donations of any amount *specifically for help with the preservation of the portion of the Experimental Intermedia archive consisting of some 400 DATs, recorded between1986 and 2009, which could completely deteriorate if nothing is done soon.* EIF is around the corner from getting through its first full year of activities post-Phill Niblock, not without many difficulties, under the curation of new Artistic Director Katherine Liberovskaya and the help of a number of invaluable assistants. While we are looking ahead and contemplating various approaches to continue, and perhaps modify, EIF's programs into the future, we also face the important challenge of finding a worthy home for the extensive EIF archive. Experimental Intermedia Foundation, founded in 1968 by Elaine Summers, has been presenting performances as of 1973. Since that time, Phill Niblock has produced and curated over 1500 concerts at his NYC loft, opening his doors to hundreds of composers, providing them with a place to explore the use of new ideas and technologies in their music. His original plan had been to choose 20 composers whose work interested him and then present them every year, giving an audience a chance to observe how their careers evolved over time. But each year the numbers grew and soon Experimental Intermedia was producing 35 to 50 concerts a year. What has made the Experimental Intermedia series different from other concert series is that each evening was typically focused on only one artist's music, as opposed to a musician or ensemble playing the works of many different composers. Archiving these concerts has been a primary concern for Experimental Intermedia, and each concert since 1978 has been recorded on audio and, as of the 1980s, video. The goal was, on the one hand, to provide the performing artists with high quality recordings of their work, on the other to constitute a physical historical record of work presented at EIF that could eventually find a home in an institution that would make the material available to the general public and for archival research. From 1973 through the late 80s the recordings were analog, and after that, in digital formats. From the late 80s to the mid 2000s the audio format EIF used was DATs. Since 2017-18 there has been quite a bit of interest in EIF's archive from different institutions, even one informal agreement for it to be taken leading us to believe that it would be off our hands by 2020. But then the pandemic halted everything... to not ever come back to how anything was pre-Covid. And thus, here we are 8 years later with no concrete developments with any previous interested parties, no confirmation for the archive going anywhere... A stand-still. And the problem is that the entire audio archive from the late 80's to 2008-09 is all on DAT. Some 400 DATs. (See below the impressive list of all artists presented by EIF between 1986 and 2009, most recorded on DAT, except for screenings or other non-music). And DAT tapes are notoriously unstable. They degrade over time. That means you can't rely on them as a long-term preservation tool. In fact, DAT tapes can degrade completely in just 20 years. When you bear in mind that the earliest DAT tapes date back to 1986. And recordings made at that time are now nearly 40 years old. So, they may already have begun to deteriorate. Digitizing them as quickly as possible is vital and urgent to prevent their contents from being lost forever. Now EIF has been given a very generous estimate for their transfer to digital from a local sound engineer (who was one of Phill’s favorites), and we would like to move forward on this process as soon as possible. To this end we are hoping to raise $8,000.00 to cover the cost of this process. But whatever we can raise we will use to start the process of transferring little by little, and seek more funds to continue later. So, if you were inspired, challenged or moved by Experimental Intermedia Foundation's programming over the past 50 odd years, or if you performed yourself, or have come to see friends perform, or to see any of your experimental music heroes... we hope you will consider supporting this fundraising effort. Your fully tax-deductible donation of any amount can be crucial for SAVING THE DAT(S) or at least some of the DATs ! Donations can be made through the "Donate" button on the landing page of our website: https://experimentalintermedia.org (PayPal) or by sending a check by mail. Many thanks to all who have donated so far which has allowed us to already start transferring the first 50 DATs of the Experimental Intermedia NYC archive (the oldest DATs from the 80s and early 90s).

Season's Greetings! and year-end fundraiser from EI NYC
by Katherine Liberovskaya 27 Dec '24

27 Dec '24

To reply to this email, please use - info(a)experimentalintermedia.org <pniblock(a)compuserve.com> Dear Friends, Wishing you the happiest of holiday seasons and upcoming 2025 New Year! As 2024 comes to its end we once more turn to you for any change you might be able to spare to help us continue our activities, *this year specifically to continue Saving the DATs!* that risk deterioration if not dealt with quickly. Thanks to your generous support in response to our Giving Tuesday SAVE THE DATs! appeal at the beginning of this month, the first 50 DATs of the Experimental Intermedia archive of its concert recordings (the oldest DATs from the 80s and early 90s) are being transferred to digital files by a trusted sound engineer as you read this... thus preserving their invaluable cultural and historic content for posterity. *There are however some 350 more DATs to go and we still need to raise around $ 6,500.00 to be able to get them all transferred.* So again, we ask, if you were inspired, challenged or moved by Experimental Intermedia Foundation's programming over the past 50 odd years, or if you performed yourself, or have come to see friends perform, or to see any of your experimental music heroes... we hope you will consider supporting this fundraising effort. Your fully tax-deductible donation of any amount can be crucial for SAVING THE DAT(S) or at least some of the DATs ! You can do this now if you still want to for the 2024 year, or just get an early start for your 2025 donations if you prefer... Donations can be made through the "Donate" button on the landing page of our website: https://experimentalintermedia.org (PayPal) or by sending a check by mail. *An overview of our 2024 year:* In the very beginning of 2024 our beloved director and curator since the 1980s Phill Niblock passed away leaving a tremendous void for all of us. Nevertheless, Experimental Intermedia's programs have continued into their fifty-first year, under the new artistic directorship of long time curatorial collaborator Katherine Liberovskaya. This past year Experimental Intermedia Foundation was again able to present artists in several different contexts, bringing new and exciting works into the world. Our March 2024 Series presented eight in-person evenings of concerts or screenings held at five different New York City locations: Zürcher Gallery, Harvestworks, WhiteBox, Emily Harvey Foundation and ISSUE Project Room. Concerts were by Dave Seidel, Kaffe Matthews, Sarah Bernstein, Lary 7 and William Hooker, and screenings by Joan Jonas, a series of experimental portraits of Phill Niblock by Rina Sherman, Loré Lixenberg, Maurits Wouters and Gilles Paté, as well as the 20th annual Screen Compositions event curated by Katherine Liberovskaya. The recently completed December 2024 Series had eight concerts or screenings over seven evenings at four New York City venues: Emily Harvey Foundation, Harvestworks, WhiteBox and Zürcher Gallery. Artists presented included Reg Bloor, C. Spencer Yeh, Kevin Ramsay + Yuma Uesaka, Nina Sobell, Zoe Beloff, Jenn Grossman, Ian Douglas-Moore + Dominic Coles, Hans Tammen + Marcus Cummins + Shelley Hirsch. All events were in-person and simultaneously live-streamed from our website and audio-streamed via Wave Farm's web radio. Video recordings of all the events remain on our website and can be viewed by anyone near or far at any time. Experimental Intermedia Foundation also assisted in producing the first edition of Phill Niblock's annual winter Solstice concert without Phill at Roulette NYC on December 21st. In addition, Experimental Intermedia's label XI Records remains active. In 2024 it released a 2-CD set by Matt Rogalsky "Visitations and Revisitations". And we are currently working on a new release by Julian Knowles scheduled to be out in 2025. In gratitude, Experimental Intermedia Foundation 224 Centre Street, #3W New York, NY, 10013

Giving Tuesday: SAVE THE DAT(S) ! - (EI audio recordings 1986-2009)
by Katherine Liberovskaya 02 Dec '24

02 Dec '24

To reply, please use info(a)experimentalintermedia.org Dear Experimental Intermedia community, *SAVE THE DAT(S) !* On this Giving Tuesday we reach out to you with a fundraising appeal *specifically for help with the preservation of the portion of the Experimental Intermedia archive consisting of some 400 DATs, recorded between1986 and 2009, which could completely deteriorate if nothing is done soon.* EIF is around the corner from getting through its first full year of activities post-Phill Niblock, not without many difficulties, under the curation of new Artistic Director Katherine Liberovskaya and the help of a number of invaluable assistants. While we are looking ahead and contemplating various approaches to continue, and perhaps modify, EIF's programs into the future, we also face the important challenge of finding a worthy home for the extensive EIF archive. Experimental Intermedia Foundation, founded in 1968 by Elaine Summers, has been presenting performances as of 1973. Since that time, Phill Niblock has produced and curated over 1500 concerts at his NYC loft, opening his doors to hundreds of composers, providing them with a place to explore the use of new ideas and technologies in their music. His original plan had been to choose 20 composers whose work interested him and then present them every year, giving an audience a chance to observe how their careers evolved over time. But each year the numbers grew and soon Experimental Intermedia was producing 35 to 50 concerts a year. What has made the Experimental Intermedia series different from other concert series is that each evening was typically focused on only one artist's music, as opposed to a musician or ensemble playing the works of many different composers. Archiving these concerts has been a primary concern for Experimental Intermedia, and each concert since 1978 has been recorded on audio and, as of the 1980s, video. The goal was, on the one hand, to provide the performing artists with high quality recordings of their work, on the other to constitute a physical historical record of work presented at EIF that could eventually find a home in an institution that would make the material available to the general public and for archival research. From 1973 through the late 80s the recordings were analog, and after that, in digital formats. From the late 80s to the mid 2000s the audio format EIF used was DATs. Since 2017-18 there has been quite a bit of interest in EIF's archive from different institutions, even one informal agreement for it to be taken leading us to believe that it would be off our hands by 2020. But then the pandemic halted everything... to not ever come back to how anything was pre-Covid. And thus, here we are 8 years later with no concrete developments with any previous interested parties, no confirmation for the archive going anywhere... A stand-still. And the problem is that the entire audio archive from the late 80's to 2008-09 is all on DAT. Some 400 DATs. (See below the impressive list of all artists presented by EIF between 1986 and 2009, most recorded on DAT, except for screenings or other non-music). And DAT tapes are notoriously unstable. They degrade over time. That means you can't rely on them as a long-term preservation tool. In fact, DAT tapes can degrade completely in just 20 years. When you bear in mind that the earliest DAT tapes date back to 1986. And recordings made at that time are now nearly 40 years old. So, they may already have begun to deteriorate. Digitizing them as quickly as possible is vital and urgent to prevent their contents from being lost forever. Now EIF has been given a very generous estimate for their transfer to digital from a local sound engineer (who was one of Phill’s favorites), and we would like to move forward on this process as soon as possible. To this end we are hoping to raise $8,000.00 to cover the cost of this process. But whatever we can raise we will use to start the process of transferring little by little, and seek more funds to continue later. So, if you were inspired, challenged or moved by Experimental Intermedia Foundation's programming over the past 50 odd years, or if you performed yourself, or have come to see friends perform, or to see any of your experimental music heroes... we hope you will consider supporting this fundraising effort. Your fully tax-deductible donation of any amount can be crucial for SAVING THE DAT(S) or at least some of the DATs ! Donations can be made through the "Donate" button on the landing page of our website: https://experimentalintermedia.org (PayPal) or by sending a check by mail.
