Share – free audio & video jam – featured guest Bit-Tuner
What is share?
SHARE is first and foremost a platform to explore expression, in a variety of artforms. Through its weekly open jam sessions, SHARE.nyc engages its participants and spectators in a continually changing dialog on art and culture. As such, SHARE represents an ongoing exploration of collaborative performance as cultural exchange. It mines the relationship of artistic practice to cultural identity, remapping a multiplicity of cultural discourses. The act of creating artistic content in a multicultural collaborative context is a fascinating and natural extension of the SHARE concept.

The Landscape is the center of my artwork; it’s a mirror of our society, economy, politics. “Unattractive” landscapes attract me, so I decided to walk in industrial areas, close motorways where the pedestrian didn’t have his own place. Emotions during these walks are the starting point of my music.

Chicago Underground Duo
The Chicago Underground Duo formed in 1997 as an organic offshoot of the larger Chicago Underground Collective. The Duo consists of Rob Mazurek (cornet, electronics, piano) and Chad Taylor (percussion, electronics, vibes, mbira, guitar). Both stalwarts of the Chicago Jazz scene, their performances are dually based on notated compositions composed by both artists and on pure improvisation.
Mazurek and Taylor have released five CDs together, their most recent release being Boca Negra (Thrill Jockey, 2010). They have toured extensively in the U.S, Canada, Europe, Japan, and Brazil and are considered to be the most musically adventurous performers of the Chicago Underground incarnations.
Joe McPhee Trio X + Trio Caveat
Trio X consists of three like-minded improvisers Joe McPhee (Saxophone/trumpet), Dominic Duval (Bass), and Jay Rosen (Drums). The band was founded after its premier at the 1988 Vision Jazz Festival. Sharing an affinity for popular jazz standards, the trio’s musical repertoire is on one hand influenced by the likes of Thelonius Monk, Ornette Coleman, and Freddie Hubbard, and the other refined by the avant-garde sensibilities of their contemporary musical practice.
The three members have performed with a variety of musicians, McPhee with Evan Parker and William Parker, Duval with Cecil Taylor, Mark Whitecage, and Steve Swell, and Rosen with Sonny Simmons, Anthony Braxton, and Charles Gayle. They have released a number of recordings on the CIMP and Cadence Jazz Records labels and continue to receive critical acclaim for their live concerts and festival appearances.
Trio Caveat consists of bassist James Ilgenfritz, saxophonist Jonathan Moritz, and guitarist Chris Welcome. A parlour jazz trio, they have perfomred throughout the U.S. in art galleries, cafes, concert halls, parlors, and basements. Initially formed as a trio with Moritz, Ilgenfritz, and drummer John McLellan, the group’s discreet dynamics and attention to unlikely sonorities facilitate the deepest possible listening experience.

About Albert Ayler
(July 13, 1936 – November 25, 1970)
“Music is the Healing Force of the Universe,” the title of prolific free-jazz musician Ayler’s fierce work for the Verve label in 1969, sums up his musical vision and prowess behind the tenor-saxophone. Born July 13th, 1936, Ayler didn’t make his mark playing his way up the ranks in be-bop bands, yet he was exposed to the world of Little Walter inspired R&B and the gritty sounds of the New Orleans tradition. Ayler began making sparse, free arrangements of marching band tunes, brass band explorations, and alto-experimentation that led him to be a driving factor in the careers of everyone from John Coltrane to John Zorn.

Share – free audio & video jam – featured guests Jeff Carey & Myo
What is share?
SHARE is first and foremost a platform to explore expression, in a variety of artforms. Through its weekly open jam sessions, SHARE.nyc engages its participants and spectators in a continually changing dialog on art and culture. As such, SHARE represents an ongoing exploration of collaborative performance as cultural exchange. It mines the relationship of artistic practice to cultural identity, remapping a multiplicity of cultural discourses. The act of creating artistic content in a multicultural collaborative context is a fascinating and natural extension of the SHARE concept.
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.

Tonight’s featured guests are Jeff Carey & Myo. They will perform two mini-solo-sets as a part of their CD release tour.
Jeff Carey (b. 1972) is an electronic music composer and performer focussing on real-time multichannel electro-instrumental music. Since the early 90′s Carey has been working with electronic music in experimental, improvised and composed contexts, has performed and presented his music in clubs, art galleries, festivals, and squats in Europe, Scandinavia and the US, and has been involved in several critically acclaimed performance groups such as 87 Central (NoTV/Universal, Staalplaat, JDK Productions, ERS Records), Jeff Carey’s MoHa! (Rune Grammofon), Office-R(6) (Lampse, +3DB, Unsounds), SKIF++ (12k/LINE, Fridgesounds), Ultralyd w/ N-Ensemble (Rune Gramofon), Jeff Carey (Sonig), and N-Collective (X-OR).
http://jeffcarey.foundation-one.org <http://jeffcarey.foundation-one.org/>
“Jeff wrote a great piece for the Noiseroom, a 5.1 listening project. His piece uses the surround spatialization set up to the full extent and draws the listener into a fascinating world of microscopic yet blasting manipulation of sound. A master of granular synthesis, the idea of an intense listening space seemed to be just right for Jeff’s radical approach on sound.” — Jan St. Werner, ‘Noise Room’ Curator, Microstoria, Mouse on Mars
“The sounds produced are an extremist hybrid between free Improv, gutter electronics and darkwave scuzz. [...] like a beautifully evil cartoon score – fractured and malevolent and funny, all at the same time.” — Byron Coley, The Wire Magazine, on Jeff Carey’s MoHa!
“Using devices such as joysticks to exacerbate the chance, improvised nature of this music, this is musique concrete that has torn away from its formal, academic origins. […] Deconstruction and reassembly in nasty extremis.” — David Stubbs, The Wire, on SKIF++’s CD ‘SK++[01,02,03,04,00]‘
Myo is the solo project of Cory O’Brien, a self taught hacker, computer musician and electro-acoustic improviser. Contact mics on polycarbonate sheets and feedback networks programmed in Max/MSP are the preferred tools. His music has been described by Vital Weekly as “louder, dirtier, gritty and angular, but still with ingredients of microsound”. Other projects and collaborations include Never Work (with Kenneth Yates of Harm Stryker, Insects with Tits), Makioki Sisters (with Jeff Surak / Violet) and Clouds-Out (with video artist Jesse Hartgraves). He currently lives and works in Washington, DC.

Tonight’s featured guest is Jan Trutzschler von Falkenstein
Jan T. is a composer and media artist with an affinity to software design.
His work often focuses on one material or subject, which he sets in different contexts and perspectives. The sound material he uses can be described as having an organic character with a tendency of being noisy and crispy. And there are playful elements in his music, which explore the boundaries of synthetic and concrete sound, digital and mechanic approaches.
He performs solo with SuperCollider and Snyderphonics’ Manta interface, writes music for instruments and computer and creates sonic installations.
Since 2002 he has been an active SuperCollider (SC) developer, which resulted in many contributions to the software and the organization of the second international SuperCollider Symposium in The Hague in 2007.
In 2008 he founded TeaTracks for the creation of mobile applications, which released Gliss in 2009. Gliss is a tilt controlled and performance
oriented sequencer, which lets you draw music and sounds on the iPhone/iPad.

Share will take place in the Munch Room tonight. The Munch Room is located on the first floor of The (OA) Can Factory.
Tonight’s featured guests:
SKIF++
http://hardhatarea.com/SKIF++
The electronic audio-visual trio SKIF++ is a collaboration of Jeff Carey (laptop SuperCollider), Robert van Heumen (laptop LiSa) and Bas van Koolwijk (laptop Max/MSP/Jitter). Sound gets processed into video and back, ranging from sonic bursts to melodic melancholy, using joysticks and selfmade controllers to keep it all in line (most of the time). Every SKIF++ performance is improvised, but based on structures that give each set its distinct character.
This time SKIF++ will play as a duo, where Van Koolwijk is represented by an interactive Jitter patch.
The SKIF++ video is generated live with a digital application that was inspired by the workings of the 1972 Rutt/Etra scan. processor The Rutt/Etra scan processor was essentially an analog computer which allowed for electronic real-time manipulation of the deflection signals that generate the television raster. The SKIF++ digital application uses audio signals for input and scans the incoming data to produce its characteristic graphics, delivering a very tight connection between the three players. The SKIF++ audio is generated by SuperCollider3 and LiSa X – SC3 delivers highly complex synthesized audio blocks while LiSa takes care of magnifying sampled
material into territories unknown – all in a highly responsive environment. While the interaction from audio to video is digital, the counterpart is the musical response of the players to the green thing projected on the screen.

Jeff Carey
http://www.radiantslab.com/87central
Electronic music composer Jeff Carey, based in the US and in the Netherlands, has been working with experimental, improvised and composed electronic, electro-acoustic, and acousmatic music since the early 90′s. Originally from the suburbs of Washington DC, he has performed a handful of hardcore bands and has played electronic music or presented pieces and installations in the US and Europe at festivals and venues such as Boralis (NO), Gaudeamus Music Week (NL), Chelsea Museum of Art (US), Transmediale (DE), NuMusic(NO), Sonic Acts (NL), Ekko Festival (NO), Cave 12 (CH), DNK-Amsterdam (NL), Trondhiem Matchmaking (NO), MOCADC (US), The Network (BE), and Placard (UK). Having studied Audio Technology at American University (1994), and computer music composition at the Instituut voor Sonologie in the Koningklijk Conservatorium in Den Haag (2002), his work has evolved from an interest in no-input-mixer and field recordings to include a focus on non-standard synthesis, algorithmic composition and digital instrumentalism. Apart from purely acousmatic and electro-acoustic composition, he is focused on performative aspects of computer music and improvisation. He has played in the groups 87 Central, Office-R(6), SKIF++, USA/USB, N-Ensemble, and collaborated or performed with Francis Marie Uitti, Gert-Jan Prins, Cor Fuhler, Oren Ambarchi, Tobias Delius, Jaap Blonk and the numerous members of the N-Collective to name a famous few. Recent compositions include the acousmatic pieces ‘Blueshift’, ‘Music for Broken Flute and Stolen Computer’, and ‘Point Source 01′ for Double Bass and computer. Carey builds custom electronic instruments for musicians (most notably, MoHa!) and teaches courses in the synthesis programming language SuperCollider 3, recently at new media/arts institutions including NoTAM, BEK, TEKS (NO), STEIM (NL), and ITP (US). He is one of many founding members of the N-Collective, a pan-European music collective, and works to promote and present N-Events in the Americas.

Robert van Heumen
http://hardhatarea.com
Robert van Heumen works with electronic means to create soundworlds. As a musician Van Heumen uses
STEIM’s live sampling software LiSa and real-time audio-synthesis software SuperCollider, controlled by various physical devices. His soundworlds are a mixture of digital crackles, heavy distortion, melancholic melodies, environmental sounds, voices and sounds from kitchen appliances, some of the time smashed beyond repair. Live sampled source sounds are gesturally manipulated and reworked within open ended narratives, exploring cycles of repetition beyond episodic improvisation.
Recent fixed-media works include the compositions Stranger and Fury, which are performed in multichannel and semi-improvised environments. Fury was presented at ICMC08, and Stranger premiered as a diffused work at Culturelab in Newcastle (UK) and was performed live at the Sound and Music Computing Conference in Porto in 2009. Both compositions are available on Creative Sources Recordings. In the fall of 2008 Van Heumen constructed the radioplay No Man’s Land, commissioned by the CEM studio at WORM in Rotterdam, NL.
Van Heumen is performing regularly with the audio-visual trio SKIF++ (with Jeff Carey & Bas van Koolwijk), Shackle (working with electro-flutist Anne LaBerge on restriction), ABATTOIR (with cellist/vocalist Audrey Chen) and Whistle Pig Saloon (with guitarist John Ferguson deconstructing the guitar). He has shared the stage with dj sniff (Takuro Mizuta Lippit), Michel Waisvisz, Richard Barrett, Sakata Akira, Nicolas Collins, Oguz Buyukberber, Luc Houtkamp, Guy Harries, Tom Tlalim, Nicolas Field, Morten J. Olsen, Daniel Schorno, Roddy Schrock, Nate Wooley a.o.
Van Heumen is Managing Director of the STEIM foundation in Amsterdam, curator of the Local Stop concert series and member of STEIM’s Artistic Committee. In a previous life mathematician, trumpet player and software programmer. He still reads L.E.J. Brouwer.

Bruce Tovsky:
Multifaceted media artist Bruce Tovsky’s 30 year career cuts a broad swath across disciplines, from his skills as a recording engineer and producer of bands like Liquid Liquid, the seminal 80’s downtown NYC cult band, to his successful career editing and designing award-winning TV commercials, documentaries and music videos, to his evocative video/sound works that are extensions of his visual arts practice. His multimedia works have drawn acclaim in festivals, museums and galleries in the USA, Europe, Japan and around the world. Tovsky collaborated extensively with choreographers during the 80’s and 90’s, scoring and creating sound and video design for works by artists such as Muna Tseng, Cydney Wilkes and Charles Dennis at venues like The Kitchen, PS122, The Joyce Theater, Lincoln Center and elsewhere. Since the early 2000’s he has been associated with Issue Project Room, both as performer and curator, and he has recorded and produced many of the shows he was involved in, most recently recording and producing the amazing collaboration between Genesis P-Orridge and Tony Conrad that was recently released on vinyl by Dias Records and received a glowing review in the UK music magazine The Wire. His 30 year associtaion with Liquid Liquid continues to this day, with his 2009 production of Domino’s UK release of the definitive reissue of their entire output, including rare bonus tracks from his archive.

Richard Garet: Richard Garet’s video works investigates the possibilities found in today’s technology to create moving image. These works examine process, color, motion, digital glitches, RGB phenomena, afterimage, and the sensory gaps between the eye and the mind. The techniques employed to interact with the work intend to push the boundaries of digital moving image and emphasize the media, digital permutations, and software processing as a pure and fundamental artistic gesture. Additional methods utilized are image scanning, analog and digital processes to treat light and image, film degradation, film decay, and rigorous and repetitive systems of digital corruption.
Garet has collaborated with artists such as: Andy Graydon, Gill Arno, Ben Owen, Gil Sansón, and André Goncalves through the EA collective; and with: Asher, Brendan Murray, Bruce McClure, Bruce Tovsky, Shimpei Takeda, Sawako Kato, Chika Iijima, Wolfgang Von Stürmer, Zimoun, Zach Layton, and Bonnie Jones. His sound compositions have been published on the following labels: And-Oar, Non Visual Objects, Winds Measure Recordings, Unframed Recordings, Con-V, Leerraum, and White_Line Editions. Additionally Garet currently directs the independent media label Contour Editions publishing works that explore the various possibilities of sound and light. Garet also co-curates with Louky Keijsers Koning, the monthly performance event LMAKseries, which integrates film, video, sound art, and media performance into the gallery’s mission at LMAK Projects in the L.E.S, NYC.

Wally Shoup with Nate Wooley, Reuben Radding, Andrew Drury + Breakway
Wally Shoup
Wally Shoup plays unfettered, emotion-laden alto saxophone and has been involved in freely improvised music since the mid-70′s. His playing combines the grit of free jazz and blues with an ear toward lyrical abstraction, all at the service of creating coherent music in the moment. His early work in Colorado is documented on Scree-Run Waltz (1981), one of the first independently produced LP’s of American free-improvisation. From 1981 to 1985, he worked with the Trans Museq Duo – Davey Williams and La Donna Smith – in Birmingham, Alabama and wrote reviews and articles for The Improvisor magazine while there. Since 1985, he has been a central member of the Seattle improvised music. He has led many notable improvising Seattle groups and has been involved in organizing the Seattle Improvised Music Festival since 1987. His work is documented on numerous labels, among them:
Leo Records (London) have released four of his CD’s
Strange-Attractors (Portland) have released two documents of his work with guitarist Nels Cline -Immolation/Immersion (w/Nels Cline and Chris Corsano) in 2005 and Suite: Bittersweet (w/Nels Cline and Greg Campbell) in 2006
Clean Feed, (Portugal) released The Levitation Shuffle in 2007.
Tyffus (Finland) released Blank Check (w/Paul Flaherty and Chris Corsano) in 2006
He has worked with a wide array of musicians, including Thurston Moore, Nels Cline, Evan Parker, Davey Williams, La Donna Smith, Jack Wright, Paul Hession, Dylan Van der Schyff, Paul Flaherty, Chris Corsano, Reuben Radding, Toshi Makihara, Brent Arnold, Jeph Jerman and many others. His current Seattle projects include the Spider Trio (w/Jeffrey Taylor and Dave Abramson) and the Wally Shoup Quartet (w/Gust Burns, Bob Rees and Paul Kikuchi) Wally was named one of Seattle’s 50 Most Influential Musicians by Seattle Metropolitan Magazine in 2009. Additionally, he is a painter (represented by Vital 5 Productions) and writer, having published numerous articles about art, music & aesthetics.
Breakway
“…in the trio Breakway, Paul Giallorenzo focuses on purely improvised abstraction, processing his piano with contact mikes and electronics or abandoning it entirely in favor of an analog synth. The music on Get Down (Friends and Relatives) is sometimes hectic, sometimes slow and considered, but even the most spacious passages consist largely of tense, frenetic gestures. Drummer Marc Riordan scrabbles and scrapes at his kit, creating a blur of cymbal patter, stuttering beats, and texture-based racket. Giallorenzo and electronicist Brian Labycz create swells and bursts of processed tones—snaking, skittering lines, supernovas of white noise, bulbous bloops and high-frequency bleeps—that not only blend and contrast thoughtfully with each other but also dance atop Riordan’s playing with clear logic and easy grace…” – Chicago Reader

Tonight’s featured guests:
1) TreeSpeedMusic
Cologne-based musician and visual artist aka Andreas Hirsch, brings a peculiar instrument he has been developing: the Palmonica, an electrified palm tree leaf that produces sounds akin to the thumb piano’s.
Via live sampling procedures and effect pedals he is building up pieces that have both references to minimal music and electronics.
Influences reach from Fluxus Music, Moon Dog through to Southeast Asian Music.
In 1998, Hirsch performed Robin Page’s “Plant Piece” at The Roxy in New York, for the opening gala show of “Playing with Matches”, by Al & Beck Hansen; the piece found him intimidating a plastic plant for 45 minutes. Since then, Hirsch has been involved with TreeSpeedMusic.
During March 2010 TreeSpeedMusic has been creating his performance project “TreeSpeedIsland” at the Watermill Center on Long Island. His gig at the Project Issue Room will involve elements of this project.
Hirsch has been exhibiting and performing throughout Europe, involving concerts at “La Nuit Blanche” in Paris, Kunsthalle Fridericianum in Kassel, Germany and Danese, NYC.

Itta and Marqido are two previously solo experimental musicians who paired up in 2005 to create 10. Independently successful, together, they burst through art festivals throughout much of Asia and parts of Europe, gaining recognition as one of the most active and creative bands on the Asian indie scene.
They met in Seoul at an international experimental music gathering at Bulgasari and were impressed by each others performances. Itta suggested that they tour together and soon after they formed 10, a name that marks the date they met, October 10th, and also symbolizes their union; 1 represents Itta, or “to be”, and 0 represents the first part of Marqido’s name, Maru, or “cycle.”
The two make an artistically complete pair. Their dynamic compositions and improvisations conjugate an assortment of instruments and various art forms. Marqido is a Japanese noise artist with psychedelic and avant-garde influence. For him, the intrigue of using the laptop as an instrument is that the noise seems to mysteriously come about without the listener or viewer being able to definitively identify how. Itta is a Korean vocalist who plays the melodica, piano, accordion, mini synthesizer, key-tar, drum kit, and numerous toys. For her, noise is a poetic device. Itta is an extravagant performer while Marqido is antagonistically still. Together they render a sound and performance that is innocent and explosive, unexpected but not awkward. 10′s performance has provoked words from critics from: “bizarre,” “abrasive,” and “ironic,” to: “intriguing,” “alluring,” and “intricate.”
