(Synthetic Erudition Assist Lattice), our AI counterparts that assist us in creating usable content with which to mold and shape our music and visuals; our music came about during the height of the Covid-19 lockdowns across the globe; our live performances online using various tech stacks are dependent upon the concert organizers preferences; during these performances we improvise on our respective music, audio and visual instruments; we regard telematic music technologies, not only as means by which our live online networked performances can be accessed but also, as a chance-agent providing a completely individualized temporal experience as the medium of the internet provides a multidimensional sensorium http://www.schedel.net/ George Moraitis (Athens, Greece) Wednesday 15 "Finis Terrae" - Sound performance using tape recorder, modular synths and field recordings; his new composition reflects upon the perception of the sonic environment of the Mediterranean basin, a sonorous cavity of multiple resonances, noises, history, rapid changes and memory; the basin seen as source and at the same time as effect of resonances; an echo chamber in which sound reverberates, generating multiple nuances of feedback, return, boundness and offering; like an interplay of mirrors in which every act or object is multiplied and even distorted www.georgemoraitis.gr Jacob Kirkegaard (Copenhagen, Denmark) Thursday 16 Opus Mors: Part 1: Opus Morturarium which is a part of a longer work Opus Mors in which he recorded four spaces and procedures related to death and its aftermath; Opus Morturarium is composed from recordings he made in different mortuaries in Denmark and Germany; the sound work is accompanied by video that he composed using microscopies that illustrate different causes of death provided to him by a forensic pathologist who collaborated with him on the Opus Mors project www.fonik.dk www.topos.media Neil Leonard (Boston) Friday 17 Home on the 4th - Audio/visual compositions for alto saxophone, electronic processing and video; the program features A/V recent collaboration with Pierce Warnecke, an electroacoustic duet with percussionist Michael Evans, and an A/V composition made with Cuban percussionists Román Diaz and Sandy Perez neilleonard.bandcamp.com neilleonard.com Nicolas Collins (Chicago, Berlin, West Falmouth) Sunday 19 A paleo-New Yorker presents something old, something new, something appropriated, something pneu: pieces for two generations of transformed brass instruments, Cusqueña music, woodpeckers, laptop marching band, a candle and the Electroacoustic Pollini Ensemble in Padova. http://www.NicolasCollins.com Our programs are supported by the Aaron Copland Fund for Music, the Phaedrus Foundation, and the New York State Council on the Arts with the support of Governor Andrew Cuomo and the New York State Legislature 224 Centre Street at Grand, Third Floor, N Y 10013 212 431 5127, 431 6430 www.experimentalintermedia.org and www.XIrecords.org We are now streaming the concerts live on the Wave Farm Website: https://wavefarm.org/radio/partner-streams/schedule/e7hkxy

We did the complete American Premiere in 1981 in Hartford as well as 25 NPR stations. WHAT'SIN MIND IS TO STAY UP ALL NIGHT READING Fromthe evening of April 30 into the morning of May 1, Stuart Wheeler will performJohn Cage's 12-hour overnight piece Empty Words. Cage composed this in the1970s by fragmenting and collaging language from Henry David Thoreau's 14volumes of journals. The piece is divided into four sections, each two and ahalf hours long with 30-minute intermissions. It begins with a variety of largeand small units of language (phrases, words, syllables and letters) andsteadily removes the larger units until the final section (timed to beginprecisely at dawn) where only single letters and silences remain. Cage thoughtof this as "a transition from language to music." Theperformance will take place over Zoom; all times are in Eastern StandardTime. It's a slumber party, so you're encouraged to put it on, stay up as lateas you want, take a nap, go to sleep, wake up. At dawn, open your windows anddoors to let in the sounds from the outside world.

In thisverison from 1425 BC, the sounds and music are clearly specified duringSun Ra’snightly travels on the underworld river to age, die, and be reborn to riseagain every morning. The ancient heiroglyphs are translated to Italian byEgyptologistRitat Lucarrelli (professor at UC Berkely) and the parts of the other gods anddemons are sung by mezzosoprano (Sahoko Sato TImpone from theMetropolitanOpera) and a choir and by additional improvisers (Dan Blacksberg, NickMillevoi, Michael Winograd, Rebecca Cherry) with a classical orchestra,. In thisvideo premiere of the opera, Soldier has animated the ancient book from 3500years ago. MarshallAllen plays the alto saxophone and EWI electronic wind instrument as Sun Ra,who doesn’t speak in the book but calls the other gods and demons,and this 96year old master musician, performing in a version of the world’s oldest musicaltext, sounds more Futuristic than anyone else ever has.  The Book of the Amduat is painted on wallsin the tombs of the Valley of the Kings and many papyri, using the version inTuthmose III's tomb, who ruled Egypt from 1485-1431 BC. He is widely thought tobe the Pharaoh of Exodus: if it wasn't him, it was a close relative. Heco-ruled at first with the female Pharaoh, Hatsepsut, and was great grandfatherto Akhenaten. He built the obelisks known as Cleopatra's Needle, one of whichis on the Thames in London, and the other is near East 81st street in Central Parkin New York City.  Each morning, Sun Ra emerges from a hole in the east andsails on a river through our sky. After he descends he continue from west toeast on the river through the underworld, the Amudat, to reemerge in themorning. Each night he dies, but is reborn in the 6th night hour when he uniteswith Osiris and defeats the serpent, Apep.   The piece takes place during the8th hour of the night, Mistress of deep night, in the city of the 8th hour,Sarcophagus of her gods. Sun Ra and his companions on the boat are being hauledby a choir on the underworld river. During the hour they are clothed andencounter other gods who live in ten caverns along the shore, along with livingknives who defeat their enemies and four sacred rams. By earliest sound score,Dave Soldier means that the specific sounds from each group of gods in eachcavern of the city are described quite literally during the trip.
