October 9 2022, Sunday - Montreal Canada - Espace Bleu | Édifice Wilder -Inside Your Ears, Productions Totem Contemporain - Representation(S)An unforgettable immersive experience, Inside your ears showcases the siren organ with its rich and powerful vibrations and tones! Jean-François Laporte's emblematic instrument composed of six truck sirens will be augmented for the occasion. An intrepid explorer of sound in all its originality and physicality, Totem Contemporain presents three works by Benjamin Thigpen, Phill Niblock, and Jean-François Laporte, respectively two world premieres and a Canadian premiere. Alone on stage, seated in the middle of the horns facing the audience, Jean-François Laporte modifies the volume, attack, and timbre of the sounds produced, in an entirely acoustic manner. The siren organ has a brilliance and presence that makes the body vibrate, reminiscent of the ship's horns in harbour symphonies.https://levivier.ca/en/concert/2022-23-season/inside-your-earsPN not resent but on Zoom October 12 - WEDNESDAY, 8pm, False Harmonics #12: TILT Brass & Zeena Parkins (Performing the music of Julius Eastman, Phill Niblock & Zeena Parkins) feat.

Plesase respond to this email to: pnibock(a)compuserve.com
This is an announcement about a live concert in NY, after these many months of lockdown and my injured back. And shared with these great other artists. And outdoors in the fresh, mid spring air.
So, it's a happy time.
This concert is not virtual, so you outside of NY will miss it, but you are now informed that it happens!!
We (KL & PN) are the last on the program, because we project video and have to wait until dark, so our start time is not knowable, it may be a wait after the acts before us.
There will be some drinks and even nearby food in the area.

Video is my instrument and my orchestra; my images are literal, poetic, performative, expressive, the work is grounded in the tactile, my approach is along the lines of wabi-sabi, influenced by European painting and by my experience with Asian approaches - from early collaborations with Nam June Paik, residencies in Korea and Tokyo, and yoga; I like to create beauty in a chaotic world; beauty is truth, but sometimes the truth is painful www.kitfitzgerald.com
Davidson Gigliotti (New York and Venice) A Video Event Tuesday 22
In the late 70s, better cameras and better cassette decks were making the move to television for single channel video art a real possibility, I was taping a lot of performance art in those days, I had a good studio, decent equipment, and some idea of how to go about it and my friend Jean Dupuy was at the heart of a distinctive style of New York performance art; the artists he championed, Joe Lewis, Tim Maul, Michael Smith, Julia Heyward, to name just a few, performed regularly in the Grommet shows staged in his Broadway loft, it was Jean’s wish that some of these performances should be recorded, it was my idea to try to put them on TV

Charlie Morrow announces
WHAT: immerse! an online event: celebration of vernal equinox and the work of Michael Gerzon
WHEN: Sunday, March 20th, 11am-12pm EST - equinox moment 11:33am EST (see www.worldclock.com for your timezone)
WHERE: Online
REGISTER: Eventbrite
https://www.eventbrite.com/e/immerse-a-celebration-of-the-equinox-and-the-w…
SYNOPSIS: Updates and presentations from the 3D audio community, a celebration of Michael Gerzon, live musical performances. Hosted by Charlie Morrow.
Event Details:
International Planetarium Society (IPS) Immersive Sound Committee, in association with IMERSA, and Audio Engineering Society (AES) invite you personally to
immerse! an online event
Featuring: Brian Katz, Anna Green, Pat Thomas, Phil Minton, Patty Seaton, Gilad Keren, Monica Bolles, Dan Neafus, Ian McLennan, William David Fastenow, Chris Plunkett, and Timo Bittner
Produced by: MorrowSound & Park Boulevard Productions
Mark your calendars! On March 20, 2022, we’re launching a new project. The first in a new series of streamed events--part music salon, part community platform--we’ll host presentations and performances from folks working in experimental audio, multidi- mensional sound, and extended listening.
The salon follows an annual tradition of its organizers in celebrating the equinoxes and solstices,1-2 events are pegged around these dates annually. This particular event launches Charlie Morrow’s “immerse!” podcast crafted with Bart Plantenga. The salon will feature a few pieces of music, including a world premiere by William David Fastenow, as well as academic updates and conversations related to immersive sound and will honor the ambisonic work of Michael Gerzon.
Vernal Periphony (world premiere) - Performance Notes
Several individuals and small groups throughout the world collaborate on this piece that pegs to both the ambisonic work of Michael Gerzon (particularly his incorporation of the Z/vertical axis, which he calls periphony) as well as the equinox (in which all of the inhabited world is aligned in near identical 12hr days / 12hr nights). The ensemble will play together in real time (despite disperate geography) via an online score and audio routed over the internet. A web streaming player/strategy will allow us to stream to the audience in multichannel audio, on 1-3 audience devices. The pieces will be mixed vertically, along the Z axis. The geographical latitude of each performer/small group is important to the piece, which correlates to both the vertical placement in the mix as well as how active the part is at specific times throughout the piece.
| Fastenow asks the audience to stream to three personal devices if possible, placing one on the floor, one up on a high shelf, and the other on their lap or a table in front of them.

Forty Years of Activity
Touch
In 2022 Touch (the UK-based imprint and publisher which has released 5 albums by Phill Niblock so far) will celebrate forty years of activity; so we thought we'd organize a few events to mark this achievement, not only to reflect on the long journey but also cast our eyes on what the future might hold for the creative arts.
Since the community we share is worldwide and multi-cultural, our activities will reflect diversity in various locations throughout the world. Do check back in from time to time, since new events will be added as the year unfolds.
The first event is a Touch.40 festival in Los Angeles from March 11th to 13th and you can buy tickets here:

And more information can be found on the Touch.40 website here:

And I would like to announce a new Touch release:Touch Works
With two films from the Movement of People Working series - China88 and Japan89, plus four hours of my music, recent pieces from 2013 to 2016, which will be on a USB memory stick housed in a CD sized box
Out soon and I will send a notice
