LISTEN HERE

Auditorium is a loft party for lovers of ambient, experimental, downtempo and slow electroacoustic sounds. Expect an inspired soundtrack, immersive eight-channel sound, enchanting lighting, mountains of rugs and seas of pillows. All music is performed live.

HALLOWED HALLS

Our venue is the Bobby Redd Project space, formerly St. Marks Lutheran Church. Built in 1892, this Victorian Gothic hall of worship comes complete with stained glass windows, murals of the rapture and a working pipe organ.

AUDIOLOGISTS

DOK GREGORY (DOKTOR 23)
Dok has been composing, performing and recording experimental/electronic music since 1983. His current projects include Zero Gravity Thinkers (NYC), Silence Corporation (NYC/SPb, Russia). He has been a member of seminal NYC based audio visual group Amoeba Technology since 1997, toured and performed in festivals throughout the United States, Europe, Russia and South America.  Dok’s audio-visual works have been featured in programs at the Forum Des Images in Paris, Basel Art Fair in Switzerland, The Kitchen and Lincoln Center in NYC, to name a few. In 2007 he began work on the ISRS system (a shortwave radio synthesizer) and continues to research, develop and deploy the technology. Dok has also toured and collaborated extensively as a member of Incidence Transmission Network, Psychic TV, Akashic Currency Bureau, Trance Pop Loops and the Ransom Corps. http://zgt.me/

At Auditorium he will perform with a VTOL (vtol.tk) modular synthesizer system, Theremin and analog synthesizer.

FUTURE DREAM TRANSMISSIONS - a collaboration of Masha Gitin  (text, voice) and Dok Gregory  (live electronics). An exploration/contemplation/communication of dreams from the future through present time exercises in text and sound.

MASHA GITIN is a painter, muralist, and works with mixed media . Recently she began working with found text and phrase samples that explore a visual wall of pattern and information connected together through an exercise of selective association. Excerpts of these collages when read aloud, take on new aspects of meaning and form. www.mashagitin.com

HURHUR
Hur Hur is a solo music project by Helsinki's Timo Viialainen, featuring instruments such as hurdy gurdy, acoustic/electric guitar, trombone and different percussions & bells. The compositions combine looping and processing the sound of these instruments to form a backing material for improvised live performance. The result could be described as cinematic/cathartic ritual with the aim to create a powerful and psychedelic outcome. The influences of the project lie in the field of apocalyptic folk, primitive shamanistic music, electroacoustic experiments, drone & punk.

MILLIONS performin on synths, guitar, mics, CDs and effects.
David Suss is the sole party behind Millions, and his monstrously dense and overpoweringly gorgeous take on the peaks and valleys of drone is remarkable for a solo project. He has tuned into a truly cosmic channel since 2006, sculpting a brilliant body of work across labels like Tape Drift, Blackest Rainbow, Peasant Magik, 2:00AM Tapes, Stunned Records, Install, and more.

JEREMY WINTERS
Jeremy Winters composes music with shifting layers of delicate, electronic sounds.  He will be performing using his homemade controllers, the "tabletar", a drawing tablet based guitar like instrument, as well as an array of infrared sensors.  Jeremy has been working on electronic music and art for 15 years, self releasing his own CDs, building electronic thingies, performing live shows, and collaborating with artists such as The Perpetual Madness Machine, Lullabelle, and Left Sensory Bypass. http://www.themoodchannel.com/projects.html

ZEMI17, or the person known as Aaron "Taylor" Kuffner is Auditorium's music curator, resident artist and creator of the 8.4 surround sound system.  He creates very visceral live compositions, weaving found sounds and homemade samples into syncopated tapestries, occasionally performing on midi breath controllers, saxophone, voice and robotic instruments. http://zemi17.net

COMPUTER MUSIC / DAW opinions with a slant toward midi editing on a mac
« on: January 29, 2012, 01:49:12 am »
I have been using DP for years (still on DP5)... and I am quite happy with it for audio editing... but I have never been a huge fan of the midi editor, as I find it to be far too detailed for what I want to do.

I love the simplicity of the midi editor in reason... but of course reason doesn't allow for plug-ins or other advanced stuff.

so I'm considering moving to another daw which will allow for me to do the advanced stuff when needed... but in general has a clean and simple interface for midi editing.

I downloaded reaper and it is part way to what I'm looking for... but I'm not happy with the way it opens up a separate window for each track (maybe I didn't dive deep enough?).

I'm also looking at logic pro (which is actually cheaper than reaper) but it doesn't seem to support vst.

opinions?  other options I should consider?

COMPUTER MUSIC / homemade controllers
« on: June 02, 2010, 04:29:45 pm »
figured I would share a couple of controllers I recently built.

this one is a "tabletar"... a guitar form with a wacom tablet and other goodies...

http://youtube.com/watch?v=_uxtndtLO0E

and here is a relatively simple one... an array of 5 IR "theremin" controllers...

both control max patches on my laptop.

OTHER MUSIC / kyoto, tokyo, bangkok?
« on: April 04, 2010, 12:01:00 pm »
I just realized I'm a little late to the game since I'm leaving tomorrow... but I'm going to be in japan for a week and thailand the following week.

we'll be in kyoto from 6-10... tokyo from 10-13... and bangkok from 13-15.

I figure that many of you are either seasoned asia travelers or locals so please let me know anything that is unique and interesting with regards to music or anything else for that matter.

thanks in advance!
