My band, Santa, will be performing alongside Ezekiel Honig, Joshue Ott and David Last at Gray Area Foundation for the Arts on October 8th. The event is part of Milieux Sonores, an ongoing interactive sound exhibit put together by the SwissNex, GAFFTA and the Institute for Computer Music and Sound Technology.

Join creative professionals from SFMOMA, the Oakland Museum and beyond for an interactive salon on the growth of user participation and sharing in museums and cultural institutions. This event will include a workshop component where you can experiment with redesigning an art exhibition for more social, collaborative engagement.

If you’re in the Bay Area Sept. 9th through 11th, you’ll definitely want to check out the 11th Annual San Francisco Electronic Music Festival. There’s quite a lineup of performers including Alessandro Cortini, Don Buchla and many other local heroes.

In our upcoming exhibition ‘Milieux Sonores’, we focus on artistic and musical designs of sound spaces, on working with sound and the visualization of imaginary space. Milieux Sonores presents five different artistic approaches, each of which either creates, in its own unique way, a world of sounds and a space for a framework of sounds or transforms and redefines space through sound.

Root Strata brings some of ambient’s finest musicians to Café DuNord / Swedish American Hall from September 2-5.

Syzygryd is an interactive musical sculpture. There are three distinct input stations for Syzygryd, each with a 10X16 grid sequencer. Participants interact with syzygryd by inputting different patterns into these sequencers. The Y axis of the grid sequencer is pitch — so you have 10 pitches (or samples) to work with. The X axis is time — so you have 16 notes, or steps, in every pattern. There are four tabs on each grid sequencer, so participants can switch between four different patterns.

My new electroacoustic septet Santa will be making their SF debut at the Motion Graphics Festival at the Gray Area this Friday, July 30th. I’ll be DJing the opening reception as well.

Project Soundwave comes to the Lab this Saturday featuring multimedia performances from Jim Haynes, Lissom, and Shores.

Join us for the 54th version of Dorkbot SF! We’re joined by A. Tobias Tenney, Mike Kuniavsky, Scott Kildall, k9d for lectures on Bio-Modified Photography, chiptune music and some live some MCing from Sasha Harris-Cronin.

Media technologies have become the last best hope for a dated modernist march into the future only because they are imagined to have no nature. Douglas Kahn and Chris Kubick join us for this month’s symposium on “A Natural History of Media” brought to you by RML and Gray Area.
