what is share?

Share is an open jam, not just for digirati, but for all new culture lovers. Participants bring their portable equipment, plug into our system, improvise on each others’ signal and perform live audio and video. We furnish the amplification and projection. Share happens every Sunday in New York City at the Issue Project Room (through December), from 8 to Midnight.

open jams and walk-in sets

audio jam: Prepared and spontaneous music from eight plus simultaneous performers. This is the time and place to perform a piece of music you’ve written and hear it on a large sound system, improvise spontaneously with other participants, get feedback on your latest project or try out that new max patch/software setup. Bring your noise maker of choice and an XLR, quarter-inch or RCA cable to join.

video jam: multi-user live video synthesis. Generating an immersive visual environment, in the SHARE tradition, in which multiple participants are able to jointly compose the video output. Try out and learn about new VJ wetware. As with the audio, walk-in sets are encouraged. Bring your clips or camera or laptop/amiga and VGA, S-Video, or RCA cables to join

8pm, free — featured guest set will start at around 10:30P

OORUTAICHI

OORUTAICHI began recording and performing in 1999, inspired by The Residents, The Doors, Tyrannosaurus Rex, Aphex Twin and Dancehall Reggae.

Initial recordings were multi-tracked improvisations using “real” instruments, toys and voice, evolving to composed songs using midi triggerd instrumentation.

His first album, “YORI YOYO”, was received airplay on BBC Radio.
He has been profiled in a number of Japanese magazines, and is very active in Japanese underground music, including improvisation with many musicians and three appearances at Kazuhisa Uchihashi “Beyond Innocence” festival. He has also provided music for contemporary dance. In 2007 he completed a U.K tour, part of his continuing efforts to raise his profile abroad.

His music is the strong melodies, wide-ranging beats & free style chorus work create an original sound that could almost be traditonal music from a fictitous country called “OORUTAICHI.” This progressive style will be appreciated by dance music listeners, free folk fans etc.
