It's time for another newsletter, people. In April we returned to the ambient releases with two excellent albums, one by Michael Trommer from Montr?al - new at test tube - and another one from our friend Erik Svensson, signing as V?sgsk?l, who gave us his last work under that alias. We also had the debut release from spanish electronic-pop producer Penca Catalogue with an amazing EP blending catchy tunes with folk-style vocals and overall pop-feeling sensation. 'Half Slei' has become a classic around here. Don't forget to download all three releases, if you didn't already. In other news, Pitch Boys finally has his own web domain, test tube and DOPO got featured at Foxy Digitalis, which was really cool and we nearly sold out our first 100 copy bash of test tube DVDs. We still have a couple around here, so be quick. I don't know if we're going to press more anytime soon. We made sufficient profit margin to pay for another two years of hosting, so we did pretty well. Thanks everyone who bought one for supporting us, You are all really special friends! :) Oh yeah, and we are green now! Our webhost buys renewable energy credits to help the economy turn carbon neutral. By doing that we're paying money to companies and fundations that invest in green energy solutions and all that. We're helping planet earth, which just feels like doing the right thing. If you want to know more, check this. Well, that's about it. Keep coming for more. Peace, '| April 30, 2007 THE ALIAS DEMISE " tube'|073 - V?gsk?l - This could've been the beginning of something great ?Erik Svensson returns for his last incarnation as V?gsk?l. If you haven't listened to his other test tube release, the EP 'As Summer Comes Creeping', please try to do it before listening to this full album, because the previous one works something as a prologue to this last 'swan song'. 'This could've been...' picks up where the EP left: dark ambient moods, a couple of subtle beats here and there and some melancholic drones to boot. Although the artwork suggests a darker tone to this release, as opposed to the brighter, sunny cover of the EP, this new work is actually a lot lighter (as in 'light'). Take the first track, for instance. It's called 'We shine brighter now', and it truly deserves the name. A light (as in 'not heavy') white drone grows towards the morning sun. A beautiful opener. The title track samples some very nice IDM-ish beats, and resembles a lot 'A Song for a Girl', from the previous release. If this were to be a pop album, I'd choose this one as the single, hands down. But hey, 'New worlds ahead' could also be a really nice single too! This album features a truly dark and minimal ambient 'remix version' of 'Deep inside', by finnish musician Jari Pitk?nen, that comes as an excellent mood shift somewhere in the middle of the album. But there aren't that many 'dark' moods as one would assume from Erik, founder of Mirakelmusik, an excellent dark ambient swedish label. It's as if Erik was trying to detach this moniker from the genre where he feels mostly at home. Well, he did it, at least for good measure he did it. More than half of V?gsk?l's work - including stuff from other labels as well - clearly touches more sky than ground. There are plenty of uplifting beats throughout. 'The falling star' is yet another and obvious point of contact with last release's 'The fading star'. Shares the same dark moody theme, a similar waving and pulsating drone, same sort of mechanical samples. The two tracks were most probably made at the same time. One of my favorites and one that, in my opinion, best characterizes V?gsk?l's work. Time for a goodbye, as the suggestively titled 'Someday, somewhere', well... suggests. This wasn't actually the beginning of something great, but the end. Outstanding. Rest in peace, V?gsk?l.? - Pedro Leit?o '| April 25, 2007 WE'RE GREEN, YEAH! test tube is hosted in a carbon neutral hosting company, Dreamhost. Therefore, all its hosted websites are green too.

A couple of weeks after the DOPO feature at Foxy Digitalis' blog (April 06), contributor Brad Rose (yay!) wrote a few lines about our recent DVD compilation. It reads: ?(...) test tube, from portugal, has been going strong for almost 3 years now and has released almost 75 free, mp3 albums, eps, etc. to celebrate the 75th release, they're making an incredible offer. for about 9 euros ($13 for us yanks), you can order a DVDR with EVERY SINGLE RELEASE they've done. it's over 40 hours of music; 400 songs, and there are 10 different covers available (all of which look pretty great). seriously, it's one of the best deals around. the music ranges from dozens of different styles, and it's not all for everyone - but within those digital realms, there are some really solid releases and true gems. so head on over to test tube and pony up the 9 euros, or $13 - whatever. it's a great way to support a group of folks who have offered up so much for free.? Once again, big thanks to Brad for supporting test tube in more than one way. You're great, man! '| April 20, 2007 SPACE DREAMING " tube'|072 - Michael Trommer - Sleeping Satellites ?test tube kindly welcomes canadian Michael Trommer into the family with this amazing 'Sleeping Satellites', a sci-fi ambient masterpiece. On a side note, most of the pieces in this work remind me of film score composer Cliff Martinez, who has done a tremendously good job with the score for the 2002 remake 'Solaris', by Steven Soderbergh. Michael, a bit like Martinez, infuses his music with some untangible feeling of loss and we end up feeling emotionally connected with most of his tracks. Michael could well be doing great sci-fi scores too, if life was fair. Trackwise, 'Huygens 2' is my favorite track. Not because it is named after a famous satellite, but because it cumulates all those emotional/nostalgic feelings in its core. Because it is purely a time-machine, which transports us to some moment in our past, a moment where we would like to visit again, again and again in every possible way, and stay there. 'Air ( )' is also a personal favorite. It's one of the few tracks of this album with an underlying beat to its structure and a very minimal drone supporting it, placing it near the IDM concept. 'Sleeping Satellites' closes this release, and with appropriate minimal style. It builds up from a voice-based drone, has a low profile beat like 'Air ( )', too, and slowly fades away into silence. This is an album to listen to at a considerable high volume setting - or best yet, with your headphones -, because it has many subtle moments that need all the attention one could give. This is canadian ambient at its best.? - Pedro Leit?o '| April 10, 2007 THIS ISN'T A WELL-KNOWN BRITPOP OUTFIT " tube'|071 - Penca Catalogue - This is Hair Care ?'This is Hair Care' is not an homage to the 1998 album of a well-known britpop outfit (wink-wink, nudge-nudge, its name rhymes with "gulp"). No, it's an EP of pop songs recorded in a lo-fi electronic way. No, it's not an '80s revival group - who the fuck cares anyway? it's already 2007 -, it's just a guy, his songs and his MySpace friends playing guitar, ukelele or drums. An outdated robotic voice introduces the record, which often features lovely melodies, glitchy beats - even almost boom-bapy hip-hop beats one time -, organ instruments such as guitar and understated vocals. It's the work of Luis Sierra, a Spanish electronic producer who has been known as Penca Catalogue since 2002. He has released an EP on his own label, Sinclair-rrr Records, in 2004, but this is his first release out of his home since then, which will be followed by a couple more releases on other spanish netlabels. 'This is Hair Care' may be reminiscent of Khonnor's full length 2004 debut, 'Handwriting', but it's really more of a collaborative effort between Sierra and his friends, not the work of a 17 year old and his computer, and these are two different artists. Even so, before he was on Type, Khonnor released on netlabels, so maybe the future Khonnor is right here, right now.? - Rodrigo Nogueira '| April 09, 2007 DOPO FEATURED ON FOXY DIGITALIS! Foxy Digitalis' blog contributor Brad Rose (hi Brad!) wrote some very nice words (and totally deserved) about DOPO's so far two excellent releases here on test tube. Here's some snippets from the article: ?(...) The quintet has only been around for a little over 2 years, but in that time have produced a handful of wonderful releases. (...) You can't beat free, especially when it's this damn good. (...) "For the Entrance of the Sun" is a minor masterpiece, and one of the year's best so far. (...)? Read the full article here.

[fran?ais ci-dessous] A one day symposium on technology, art and society. Organised by the [CTRL] collective, the Technology, Art, Society Symposium features keynote speaker McKenzie Wark (New School, NYU), whom we are pleased to say will be presenting on the 'gamespace of everyday life in the rat race of free-market society'; a panel discussion with local artists and activists on democracy, art and media; and an evening cabaret of video-art, new media and electronic music performance presented by UpgradeMTL. All events are free & open to the public. Events at McGill are in English. Organised by Anna Feigenbaum, Horea Avram and tobias c. van Veen of [CTRL]. :: Mission :: When conducting research into media, ethics and communications, critical scholarship often takes as its object local communities and artistic practices as it studies the effects of technology upon society. It is rare, however, that representatives from community-based technology practices, curators and artists in the technology arts, and scholars in disciplines of communication, information and media have the opportunity to engage each other in dialogue and practice. In the spirit of opening dialogue brought about by the study and practices of media, ethics and communications, [CTRL] proposes to spark a dynamic encounter between these fields by bringing together artists, community members and scholars in a one-day symposium and art event dedicated to Technology, Art and Society. The TAS Symposium seeks to combine artistic, academic and community practices that undermine borders between genres and disciplines. We seek to foster a transdisciplinary, creative environment in which we can construct collective visions for democratizing technology within communities while cultivating the political and ethical potential of artistic practice. At the same time, and in recognition of Wark's introduction of 'Gamer Theory', the question is posed if our time is not the time of 'politics under fire': a time in which reactionary forces abound in worldwide gamespace with devastating consequence. // [fran?ais] :: la politique prise d'assaut :: Une journ?e de symposium sur la technologie, l?art et la soci?t?. Organis? par le collectif [CTRL], le Symposium Technologie, Art et Soci?t? (TAS) a le plaisir d?accueillir comme conf?rencier McKenzie Wark (New School, NYU), qui offrira une pr?sentation sur 'l?espace-jeu (gamespace) du quotidien dans la course effr?n?e de la soci?t? du libre-march??; un panel d?artistes locaux et d?activistes de la d?mocratie, des arts et des m?dias; et une soir?e cabaret de vid?o-art, de nouveaux m?dias et de performances de musique ?lectronique pr?sent?e par UpgradeMTL. Tous les ?v?nements sont gratuits et ouverts au public. Le symposium ayant lieu ? l?universit? McGill se d?roule en anglais. Le tout est organis? par Anna Feigenbaum, Horea Avram et tobias c. van Veen du collectif [CTRL]. :: Mandat :: La recherche acad?mique critique, lorsqu?elle porte sur les m?dias, l??thique et les communications, prend souvent comme objet d??tude les communaut?s locales et les pratiques artistique afin d??tudier les effets de la technologie sur le soci?t?. Il est pourtant rare que des repr?sentants issus des pratiques technologiques communautaires, des artistes et commissaires des arts technologiques et des chercheurs dans les domaines de la communication, de l?information et des m?dias aient l?occasion de s?interpeller dans le dialogue et dans la pratique. Afin d?ouvrir le dialogue ?mergeant de l??tude et de la pratique des m?dias, de l??thique et des communications, le collectif [CTRL] propose de provoquer une rencontre dynamique entre ces domaines en r?unissant des artistes, des membres de la communaut? et des chercheurs lors d?un symposium d?une journ?e et d?un ?v?nement artistique d?dies ? la Technologie, l?Art et la Soci?t?. Le Symposium TAS a pour but de combiner les pratiques artistique, acad?mique et communautaire qui rejettent les fronti?res entre les genres et les disciplines. Nous voulons b?tir un environnement transdisciplinaire et cr?atif dans lequel nous pouvons forger des visions collectives afin de d?mocratiser la technologie au sein des communaut?s tout en cultivant le potentiel politique et ?thique de la pratique artistique. Toutefois, inspir?s de l?introduction du livre ?Gamer Theory? de Wark, la question se pose quant ? la possibilit? que nous vivions une p?riode o? ?la politique est prise d?assaut?: une p?riode o? des forces r?actionnaires abondent dans un espace-jeu global menant ? des cons?quences d?vastatrices. ====================================== :: HORAIRE [CTRL]: TAS schedule :: 17 MAI 2007 :: ====================================== 14H ? 15:30 DEMOCRACY, ART & MEDIA: PANEL / DEMOCRATIE, ART ET MEDIAS: PANEL With members of / Avec des membres du the Levier Project, Oboro, Centre Canadien d?Architecture (CCA), Fair Trade Media & ?le Sans Fil.

MIX NYC promotes, produces, and preserves experimental media-from film and video to performance and music-that is rooted in the lives, politics, and experiences of lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender (LGBT) and otherwise queer-identified people. Founded in 1987, MIX has earned a reputation as a crucible for artist-driven innovation with an established international influence on the world of experimental media. MIX is unique among arts and community-building organizations for its work on behalf of queer experimental media artists, supporting their production of new work, and making that work accessible to the public. For almost two decades, we have worked to create a home for queer experimental media. MIX is also unique among New York City's cultural institutions. The annual New York Queer Experimental Film Festival, our most visible and longest-running program, showcases films and videos that literally go unseen in other venues. We define "experimental" broadly to mean not only films made using unorthodox techniques, but also those that deal with subject matter outside of the mainstream. In this respect, the MIX festival stands literally at the avant garde-the forefront of artistic innovation-and serves as a proving ground for new, socially conscious film. MIX NYC actively engages communities around the city and the nation through on-site local and touring screenings. We also preserve aging queer experimental films, such as the early 16mm work of Marguerite Paris, to guarantee its endurance for the future; and we operate a summer-long youth media training program to provide a new generation of queer filmmakers with the tools they need to make their voices heard.

It generates streams of MIDI data based on the pitch, rhythmic, and dynamic information the user puts into various columns. The program combines the information in these columns according to various simple algorithms, including random and sequential. Output may be exported as a standard MIDI file and then imported into a sequencing program (Logic, ProTools, etc.) and/or a music notation program (Finale, Sibelius, etc.). Advanced features include the possibility of multiple tracks, and the creation of sets (of pitches, rhythms, or dynamics) which may then be placed in the primary columns, or inside other sets. The software is available for both Mac and PC, and may be downloaded from the following site: www.universalmusicmachine.com I would be interested in hearing if any of you find the program useful, or if you have any suggestions for further development.

Artists are invited to submit a piece of ambience exactly 120 seconds long. Each piece will be threaded to the start or the end of the piece (alternatively) with a crossover/fade in and out of 30 seconds The idea is to let the piece organically grow and evolve over time..... Music should be submitted as an aiff/wav at 16 bit > that way the volume/impact of each segment can be mastered (maintaining quality) to a consistent level ================================================ Tracks can be sent to audiobulb AT NOSPAM gmail.com Include artist name, track name, and a permission for audiobulb to use the music in this way....

THANK YOU! -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- framework - phonography/field recording; contextual and decontextualized sound activity presented by patrick mcginley our latest regular edition, featuring more works from the 'nekton falls' compilations, and recent sounds from lawrence english, mystified, and joseph young. we also heard the first of several long tracks we'll be listening to by the project social interiors, whose work some of you may remember from the australian extreme label from the 80's/90's. this first release in several years (now on endgame records) features one solo track from each member of the collective, and a collaborative work, and instead of trying to feature a few short extracts, we thought, heck, we'll play them all, by spreading them out over several shows. ie, it's good. meanwhile, as promised, we gave a second chance for interested parties to participate on our listener participation segment, featuring the work of sebastiane hegarty. once again, the details: sometime last year i received an unsolicited heavy-pressed single-sided 7" vinyl record in the post. no package, letter, sleeve, nothing - just a record with a stamp and my address on it, and a small sticker in the center with a request. the request was that i play the record back in my home, record it ambiently, and return both record and recording to a specified address. months later, i finally got around to doing this, and in the process thought, what better way to support this project than to broadcast the record on framework and call to arms all it's loyal listeners? so that's what i've done: near the end of this edition (around minute 50, if you're downloading) you will find sebastiane hegarty's piece 'mo (nu) ment', which was recorded from his bedroom window during a 3 minute silence held for the victims of the asian tsunami disaster of 2005. play it back over whatever speakers you have, record it with whatever you have at hand, and, dear listener, send it back to us here at framework. if we get enough we'll broadcast a selection of them, and forward them on to sebastiane for his project. so there you go. to arms! one other (very small) announcement: i'm trying out a new feature to the playlist, in the form of specific time details for the tracks played. it is often pointed out to me that it's very hard, via the playlist, to tell what is what in the show, since rarely is a single piece broadcast on it's own, and all the playlist gives is track order. now that you can download the show it occurred to me it might be useful to have specific start/end points for each track, to help you if you fancy trying to decipher what's what. please let me know if this is at all useful to you - if no one's bothered, well then, it's less work for me not to bother either... again, we are always looking for material for the show, whether raw field recordings, field recording based composition or introduction submissions. we are also now accepting proposals for full editions of our guest-curated series. send proposals or material, released or not, on any format, to the address below. if you have any questions, please don't hesitate to get in touch! framework bp17 27910 perruel france framework at talk21.com -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 09.05.07 (this edition will be available online until 16.05.07) (time / artist / title / album / label) 00:00 - 04:00 / brett lischalk / framework intro ayevictus1 at aol.com 02:00 - 08:47 / mnortham / quelques metres du glacier d'orny / nekton falls [compilation] / celestial dragon http://preg.org/~mnortham, http://www.sonic-dragon.com/celestial_dragon.htm 06:01 - 13:27 / joseph young / 10 ways to live well / 10 ways to live well / field http://www.fieldrecording.org.uk/ 09:31 - 12:44 / mystified / muffled milk / fragment, compress / gruenrekorder http://www.mystifiedmusic.com, http://www.gruenrekorder.de 12:54 - 19:28 / lawrence english / swan / for varying degrees of winter / baskaru http://www.lawrenceenglish.com, http://www.baskaru.com 16:19 - 19:05 / mystified / man of iron / fragment, compress / gruenrekorder http://www.mystifiedmusic.com, http://www.gruenrekorder.de 19:00 - 32:52 / social interiors / mound of mounds / spatial circumference / endgame http://www.endgame.com.au 32:32 - 37:47 / franziska baumann / birsay / nekton falls [compilation] / celestial dragon http://www.franziskabaumann.ch, http://www.sonic-dragon.com/celestial_dragon.htm 35:32 - 41:30 / lawrence english / soft touch / for varying degrees of winter / baskaru http://www.lawrenceenglish.com, http://www.baskaru.com 41:05 - 44:37 / mystified / drop and bend / fragment, compress / gruenrekorder http://www.mystifiedmusic.com, http://www.gruenrekorder.de 42:18 - 48:54 / roel meelkop / thanatos springs / nekton falls [compilation] / celestial dragon http://www.sonic-dragon.com/celestial_dragon.htm 42:18 - 48:54 / sebastiane hegarty / mo (nu) ment ssv7_4:4 / - / - sebastiane73 at hotmail.com 53:17 - 59:30 / lawrence english / unsettled sleep / for varying degrees of winter / baskaru http://www.lawrenceenglish.com, http://www.baskaru.com -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- framework intro submissions: 1) take yourself and an audio recording device to a location of your choice 2) record for AT LEAST 1 minute before you - 3) read the following text: welcome to framework. framework is a show consecrated to field recording, and it's use in composition. field recording, phonography, the art of sound-hunting; open your ears and listen! 4) continue your recording for AT LEAST 2 minutes after you've finish speaking 5) send the recording on any format to the address above, or as an mp3 via email thanks! -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

It went really well and for those of you living in Athens we'll do it again in Benaki Museum for Synch festival. www.synch.gr www.myspace.com/synchfestival And in mid August in Poland during Off festival. www.myspace.com/offfestival Both will be done by yours truly and Markus from the label Staubgold http://www.myspace.com/thestaubgolds http://www.staubgold.com/ And for now we are very proud to share with you 2 new releases : Spaceheads & Max Eastley : a very long way from anywhere else [bleep 35] http://www.spaceheads.co.uk/page.php? section=biography&page=discography/longway Spaceheads are a unique duo of trumpet (Andy Diagram) played through electronics and looped with drums (Richard Harrison). Max Eastley is a sound sculptor, artist, and musician who plays an instrument he invented and made himself called The Arc. It is a monochord of wood and wire, which is scraped, bent and flexed into an orbit of amplified effects. This new CD was recorded live, improving at two very different locations, one an island of the south of France during Mimi festival, and the other a remote village on the North Yorkshire moors, both venues a very long way from anywhere else. SELECTED REVIEWS : "A fascinating meeting of surreal improv strategies and electronic abstraction, A Very Long Way From Anywhere Else, is, as the title suggests, a pretty unique piece of work. Recommended." BOOMKAT / UK Rothko : eleven stages of intervention [bleep 36] http://www.rothkomusic.co.uk/ Following releases on such visionary labels as Lo Recordings, Simon Raymonde?s Bella Union, Too Pure and Kraak, Bip_Hop is pleased to welcome the release of Rothko's new album. Mark Beazley (bass), Michael Donnelly (bass), Ben Page (keyboards/percussion) and Tom Page (drums) continue to create a warm and inviting sound, where solitary keyboard melodies transition from exploratory passages and fragile beauty intertwines effortlessly through somber basslines. The music of Rothko at equal turns challenges and comforts the listener. At first perhaps confrontational, yet ultimately nurturing, the band's eleventh fulllength release -- adds to Rothko's already innovative and impressive catalogue. SELECTED REVIEWS : "It?s like a more melancholy, more muted Godspeed You! Black Emperor, without the hint of post-rock clich?, or at times even like Southern Lord?s slow rockers Earth without the metallic subtext ? this is cinematic and evocative music in the best possible way... Quite hauntingly beautiful? recommended!" BOOMKAT / UK Each Digipack CD is 15 Euros (postpaid). Please make cheques in Euros and payable to Kinetic Vibes.

Friday, May 18 8:30pm OptoSonic Tea @ Diapason Live sets by: - Kurt Hentschlager (visuals and sound) - Shimpei Takeda (visuals) & Bruce Tovsky (sound) Invited artist: - Carl Skelton Suggested donation: $ 7 OptoSonic Tea is a new regular series of meetings dedicated to the convergence of live visuals with live sound which focuses on the visual component. These presentation-and-discussion meetings aim to explore different forms of live visuals (live video, live film, live slide projection and their variations and combinations) and the different ways they can come into interaction with live audio. Each evening features two different live visual artists or groups of artists who each perform a set with the live sound artists of their choice. The presentations are followed by an informal discussion about the artists' practices over a cup of green tea. A third artist, from previous generations of visualists or related fields, is invited specifically to participate in this discussion so as to create a dialogue between current and past practices and provide different perspectives on the present and the future. Organized by Katherine Liberovskaya and Ursula Scherrer About the artists: New York-based Austrian artist Kurt Hentschlager creates audiovisual compositions in which audio and video actuate one another. The immersive nature of his work reflects on the metaphor of the sublime. Trained as fine artist, in 1983 he began as a sculptor, building surreal machine objects, followed by works with video, computer animation and sound. Between 1992 and 2003 he worked collaboratively as a part of the duo Granular-Synthesis. Employing large scale projected images and drone like sound environments, his multi channel performances and installations triggered the viewer on both physical and emotional levels, overwhelming the audience with sensory information. His more recent solo work is more poetic and further researches the nature of human perception and the accelerated impact of new technologies on individual consciousness. Hentschlager is a recipient of numerous prizes and large-scale commissions. He has represented Austria at the 2001 Venice Biennial and has shown his work internationally for two decades. Selected presentations include the Milllenium Museum, Beijing, Staedelijk Museum Amsterdam, In the Anchorage - Creative Time, Inc., New York, MAC - Musee d`Art Contemporain Montreal, MAK - Museum of Applied Arts Vienna, National Museum for Contemporary Art Seoul, Ars Electronica Festival Linz, ICC Inter-Communication-Center Tokyo, Fondation Beyeler Basel, Palacio de Bella Artes, Mexico City. His recent solo performance "FEED" premiered at the 2005 Venice Theatre Biennial and is currently touring and the procedural installation "KARMA / cell" was commissioned in 2006 by Le Fresnois, Studio National des Arts Contemporains, France. Shimpei Takeda (b.1982), is an artist working with photography, video, and improvisational performance. Originally from Japan, Takeda currently lives and works in New York City. Primarily self-taught, Takeda began shooting pictures at the age of 18. Later on, he expanded his unique vision and sensitivity to the other mediums . He experiments with the aesthetic, optical and poetic possibilities between abstraction and concreteness. His work has been presented at the Essl Collection of Contemporary Art, Austin Museum of Art, Weisman Art Museum, Schenectady Museum & Suits-bueche Planetarium, and throughout New York City venues including: Issue Project Room, the Tank, and Experimental Intermedia. Bruce Tovsky is a visual/sound artist based in in Brooklyn, New York. After earning his MFA degree in Multimedia from Rutgers University in 1979, Tovsky began showing his video work across the USA, as well as Europe and Japan. His early 80's video/sound work INVADED was included in the Whitney Museum exhibition "Video/Music: New Correlations" and toured exten extensively in the USA as part of a Beard's Fund exhibition of new video art. INVADED was also shown at the 1984 World's Fair and is in the collections of The Kitchen and the New York Public Library Donnell Film Center. During the 90's Tovsky focused on collaborations with choreographers, scoring works for Muna Tseng, Charles Dennis and Bessie-winning choreographer Cydney Wilkes, among others. His dance scores have been presented at Lincoln Center, Joyce Theater, DTW, PS122 and The Kitchen. For the past several years he has been creating live video and sound improvisations, often in collaboration with artists such as John Hudak, David Linton, Kim Cascone and Michael Schumacher in a variety of spaces around New York City, including Diapason, Experimental Intermedia, Issue Project Room, Tonic, and his own installation space 106BLDG30 at the Brooklyn Navy Yard. In the summer of 2003 he performed the video/sound collaboration FOR THE TIME BEING with John Hudak at Roulette's "Festival of Mixology" at The Performing Garage. The audio portion of this performance was released in Octo October 2004 on the Swiss label CUT, and was reviewed in the February 2005 issue of The Wire. His video/sound piece ETHER premiered at 106BLDG30 in June 2005, and played in international festivals from Sao Paulo to Seoul to Paris. The audio from ETHER was featured in "Tracking The Lincolnshire Poacher," a BBC4 radio documentary on shortwave numbers stations. Tovsky was artist-in-residence at Diapason gallery during October 2006, where he presented his latest work UNDERPASS, a 50 minute silent video piece accompanied by some of New York City's most accomplished improvisors, including Kato Hideki, o.blaat, Bryan Eubanks, Richard Garet and Matthew Ostrowski. UNDERPASS will be touring the EU during spring 2007. Carl Skelton has been working professionally as an artist and designer, with a particular focus on the cultural aspects of Communications technologies new and old, since well before receiving his MVA in Canada in 1986. Skelton was an active member of Toronto's cultural community until 1998, when he moved to New York City. In his spare time, he is the founding director of the Integrated Digital Media Institute in the department of Humanities and Social Sciences at Polytechnic University, Brooklyn. The IDMI offers Bachelor and Master of Science programs, a more or less annual conference series (Hyperpolis), and conducts interdisciplinary research and media-making projects. In particular, the IDMI supports new approaches to media-making through close collaboration between artists, critical theorists, and engineers.

We visit Cairo and then leave for Luxor, over the bands of the Nile. From Egypt we go to another islamic country, another former empire, Turkey. We first visit the calm city of Eskisehir, in the middle of Anatolia, and then we go to Istanbul, the city of Mosques. From here only a jump is Greece, the center of another religion. We climb to the Acropole to listen to the sounds of Athens at 6PM, when bells can be heard instead of the muezzin of the islamic world. We are now back to our familiar Europe.' for more information on henrik's many projects, see: http://emc.elte.hu/~hargitai/ http://planetologia.elte.hu/ http://geogr.elte.hu/tef/ http://emc.elte.hu/ http://eper.elte.hu/ http://planet-veab.elte.hu/ http://web.archive.org/web/*/http://puskas.matav.hu http://www.demonium.hu/ again, we are always looking for material for the show, whether raw field recordings, field recording based composition or introduction submissions. we are also now accepting proposals for full editions of our guest-curated series. send proposals or material, released or not, on any format, to the address below. if you have any questions, please don't hesitate to get in touch! framework bp17 27910 perruel france framework at talk21.com -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 16.05.07 (this edition will be available online until 23.05.07) (numbers indicate approximate time in minutes) 2:- Departure from Budapest by MALEV aircraft to Cairo 3:- Egyptian people welcoming us (me and my wife) 4:- Visiting Giza Piramids by bus 5: - Busy town: Cairo soundscape from pedestrian street to city highway at evening muezzin pray time 7: - leaving to Luxor by train (Loudspeaker in Luxor train station) 8: - Loudspeaker in Luxor (Adverstisment?) 9: - Luxor, evening: music from tape as heard on the street 11: - Luxor,live music festivity on the streat 13: - Afternoon: calm street with muezzin 20: - Leaving Luxor by hitch-hiking 22: Next stop: Turkey, Eskisehir.

Joining me are three fantastic danish improvisors: Emil de Waal (percussion + laptop + devices) S?ren Kjaergaard (keyboards) and Gustaf Ljunggren (guitar) - all of whom I performed with last year as part of Emil's big band at Issue Project Room here in Brooklyn. Literaturhaus M?llegade 7 at N?rrebro. Time: 20:00 Entrance: not determined as yet Transport Bus: 5A (Elmegade/Solitudevej) and 350S (Elmegade/Stengade). S-train: to N?rreport and then bus 5A.

I will be performing as part of Steim's "Local Stop" series, and will be joined by Steim director Robert van Heumen (laptop + LiSa + Super Collider 3) Ivo Bol (laptop) and Hilary Jeffery (trombone).

"64" is run by composer/improvisor Jean Jacques Palix. Joining me will be Palix (electronics) and Olivier Pasquet (laptop). Olivier and I performed together last year, at my Navy Yard space. Thanks to David Linton, for introducing me to Palix (and saving the Paris show, which had gone off the tracks.) We may have a surprise guest sitting in, so stay tuned.

First and foremost, we are in the midst of preparing our issue on Sample Culture. It has been an interesting issue to curate, and we're quite excited about the work that we will be showcasing. We expect the issue to launch in late June as the MUTEK festival will be a bit of a speed bump in our usual production schedule. Our September issue will be dedicated to exploring lo-fi technology and art, so if you know of any work you'd think we'd be interested in please get in touch with us at submit at vagueterrain.net On the topic of MUTEK, Neil Wiernik's NAW project will once again be showcased at the festival as part of the Bande part / MUTEK Cafe Electronika. This concert series will bring together live streams from the studios of 33 musicians across Canada and broadcast live at the Hotel Godin, on http://www.bandeapart.fm, and on the Espace Musique channel on Sirius 93 satellite radio. Neil will be performing on Thursday May 31st at 2pm. Neil also just received a very positive review in the Wire for his recent City Saturate full-length where the project was praised for the fact that "Looped and reworked into different speeds and rhythms, it demonstrates how a conceptually minimalist approach doesn't automatically mean less." Another music update: Greg J. Smith will be DJing at the upcoming PUSHER event in Toronto on Saturday May 26th. The event features a multimedia collaboration between Monolake and Peter Mettler as well as a live performance from Granny'Ark, a DJ set from Task, and live video from Noir. This event takes place at the Deleon White gallery at College & Dufferin. More info available at http://www.pusher.cc Thanks for your continued support!

Tolosa & owner of the netlabel ?Con-v?) brings us his first full-length solo release. Spectra is a simply gorgeous work that begins with the aptly titled ?Premia Lucis? and sets the scene for a series of hazy, drifting tracks that seem to blow in on the breeze and evaporate again with languid ease. Snatches of melodies are weaved together amongst dreamlike drones that guide us to a brighter light, elevating us towards the promise of something greater. An enlightened, wonderfully composed album that Twenty Hertz are proud to bring you. http://www.twentyhertz.co.uk ____________________________________________________________________________________ The fish are biting.

Visitors will be able to manipulate images and sounds using a hand built Sandine Image Processor, Wobbulator, and Jitter inteactive system. On Wednesday evening June 6 th there will be solo and duo concerts by Stephen Vitiello, Andrew Deutsch, Sawako Kato (from Tokyo) Tammy Bracket and Peer Bode (via cellphone from China). The Institute for Electronic Arts is a high technological research studio facility within the New York State College of Ceramics at Alfred University, NY. The IEA encourages and supports projects that involve interactive multi-media systems, experimental sonic/video production, digital imaging, and publications. The IEA is committed to developing cultural interactions spurred by technological experimentation and artistic investigations. About the Performers: Stephen Vitiello is a sound and media artist. Originally from New York, he is now based in Richmond, Virginia. Vitiello's CD releases include Scratchy Monsters, Laughing Ghosts (New Albion Records), Buffalo Bass Delay (Hallwalls), Scanner/Vitiello (Audiosphere/Sub Rosa), Bright and Dusty Things (New Albion Records), Scratchy Marimba (Sulphur UK/Sulfur USA), Light of Falling Cars (JDK Productions) and Uitti/Vitiello (JDK Productions). Stephen's website: www.stephenvitiello.com Andrew Deutsch (b.1968) is a sound, video and graphic artist who lives in Hornell, NY and teaches Sound & Video Art in the Division of Expanded Media at Alfred University. He received his BFA in Video Art and Printmaking from Alfred University in 1990 and his MFA in Integrated Electronic Art from Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute in 1994. He is a member of the Institute for Electronic Art at Alfred University and the Pauline Oliveros Foundation Board of Advisors and is a former member of the Pauline Oliveros Foundation Board of Directors (1999 - 2001). Andrew's website: www.infoblvd.net/ andrewandjen/index.htm Sawako Kato is a Tokyo/NYC-based timeline based artist and sound sculptor who creates the digital nostalgic world using technologies. Once through the processor named Sawako, elements in everyday life float in space vividly with a digital yet organic texture. Her unique sonic world has been called "post romantic sound" by Boston's Weekly Dig. For these 5 years, Sawako did more than 80 live performances in Japan, USA, Paris and London, and last year her 2nd album "hum" was released from NY based minimal label, 12k. Sawako's website: www.troncolon.com Tammy Ren?e Brackett received a BA in fine arts from Alfred University in Alfred, N.Y. in 2003 and an MFA in Electronic Integrated Art from the School of Art and Design at Alfred University in 2006. Critiques of the impact of scientific "breakthroughs" on identity formation inform Brackett's work. Using new and traditional artistic media, she explores the factors that contribute to the invention of new identities and the overlapping fluid structures behind them. Brackett's recent work uses scientific data, such as the Map of the Human Genome, brainwave biofeedback, and DNA frequencies, as elements in her musical compositions and surround-sound installations. Brackett has exhibited in Japan, Croatia, Hungary, and the United States. She has been awarded the 2005 College Art Association Professional Development Fellowship for Visual Artists, funded by the NEA, and is currently a Visiting Assistant Professor in Expanded Media at Alfred University's School of Art and Design.

His work is produced at the IEA, Alfred NY; the Experimental Television Center, Owego, NY and Pep Studios, Hornell and Roc
