Jorge Boehringer/Core of the Coal Man (feedback driven
yodel triggers/carnastic arrays)


Kristin Miltner is a composer, videomaker and
installation artist living in Oakland, California. She
gleans harmonies from machine sounds, abandoned and
recovered instruments, and factory drones, and gathers
abstracted moving images of her environment -- from
the rough colors of the Oakland docks, to the fields
of windmills on the hills above Altamont Pass -- to
use as video scores to guide her in creating
improvised music with these materials. She uses
homebuilt circuits to map her own rhythmic samplers
developed in Max/MSP to living animals such as insects
and humans. Her duo with electronic musician and
composer Mark Bartscher is called miba and their
recently released album ³The Corplate Porblem²
features sampling and sequencing software built by the
composers, as well as voice, various toys, birds,
bells, and cats.

Lx began playing synth and singing in san francisco
punk groups as soon as he was able, way back when
there was No Future: 1979. After several close calls
with something resembling fame, he eventually noticed
that The Future was indeed happening and took this cue
to retire to a career in the videogame industry. He
performs actively in the San Francisco Bay Area, solo
and in ensemble. His current live performance system
is a CD based DJ rig augmented by various processors
and several 'gestural controllers'. Sets are built
from remixes of his own material, found-sound and
field recordings and occasionally, Other Peoples'
Music. Lx Rudis is resident artist and sometimes emcee
for San Francisco's Drum Machine Museum. His active
collaborative projects include: Live Feed, United
Satanic Apache Front, Chochota, Winston Tong.

Core of the Coal Man does whatever he wants to. This
Thursday, he'll be combining feedback-driven yodel
triggers, descending tympanic pressures implying
sexual interface, and (probably) extended upwardly
mobile Carnasitic arrays, with ornaments. Its like the
blurred fossil record of a biological crises during a
time of intense geological speed. Know what I mean,
man? its Ordovician noise. The invitations went out
like 648 million years ago, it was old school. You
still haven't showed up. I miss you now but I wasn't
there either. Now is a time for reconcilliations.
