Dear Friiends,
 
The very happiest of New Years to you! 
 
I believe that I have never sent a personal letter requesting a donation to Experimental Intermedia before.I never liked the idea. But times have become critical in our funding.Next year will be the fiftieth year of the EI concert series. Ye gods, 50 years next year.We have maintained a very low entrance fee to the concerts - $4.99, for many years, because we want people to come to the concerts. And we pay an actual fee to the artists and not door money. So, if you can spare a little change...You can do this now if you still want to for the 2022 year, or just get an early start for your 2023 donations if you prefer... We hope to be hosting the concerts at 224 Centre Street again by December 2023.Experimental Intermedia was founded by Elaine Summers in 1968. Our first concerts at 224 Centre Street were in December 1973. Phill Niblock,  director
This past year Experimental Intermedia Foundation was able to present artists in a number of substantial ways, ushering new and exciting works into the world. Our March 2022 Series, presented 10 evenings of concerts or screenings. Three of these events were held in-person at Fridman Gallery NYC and seven were virtual, live on-line due to lingering Covid concerns at the time. The in-person events featured Forbes Graham, Nicola Hein, Viola Yip, Liz Phillips. On-line presentations included works by Kit Fitzgerald, Davidson Gigliotti, Jen Morris, Warren Burt, Ulrich Krieger, Carl Stone, Peggy Ahwesh, as well as the 18th annual Screen Compositions event curated by Katherine Liberovskaya. The recently completed December 2022 Series had seven performances, all in-person and simultaneously live-streamed from our website and from Wave Farm's web radio, that were presented at three different New York City locations: Shift, WhiteBox and Fridman Gallery, and featured Tom Hamilton, Thessia Machado, Cleek Schrey, Lee Gilboa, Pauline Kim Harris, Gryphon Rue, Frédéric Acquaviva, Loré Lixenberg, Laurie Schwartz and more. EIF also produced on-line video interviews with XI record label composers Ellen Fullman and David Behrman in conversation with Phill Niblock and Katherine Liberovskaya. Video recordings of all the events and interviews produced in 2022 by EIF remain on our website and can be viewed by anyone near or far at any time.
If you were inspired, challenged or moved by Experimental Intermedia Foundation’s programming this last year, or over the past 50 odd years, we hope you will consider supporting us by donating to our year-end campaign. Your fully tax-deductible donation of any amount to this fundraising effort can provide important unrestricted support to our general operations, helping with everything that we do for you, for artists, for the broader public.  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.
In gratitude, Experimental Intermedia Foundation224 Centre Street, #3WNew York, NY, 10013
