Just finished packing a new short-run disc release specially for tonight’s show:
Strange Electronics #2
@ enemy – 1550 N. Milwaukee Ave 3rd Fl. Chicago, IL 60622
9pm
A collection of Chicago based new media artists exploring realtime audio and video through disciplines of homemade instrument creation, hardware hacking, and the disruption/corruption of analog and digital systems.
I just got word that Fralix_01, the first track on Vaudeo Signal, will be shown at Dérapage in Montreal on April 21st, 8PM at UQAM Design Center. If you’re in the Montreal area, check it out!
Had a great time performing with Evan Kühl at TLVSN #1, the first in a series of monthly screenings and live shows at Maria’s organized by Theodore Darst. I recommend coming out next month to see James Connolly and Kyle Evans performing as Cracked Ray Tube.
Here’s video of our live set, thanks to Jackie, our one-armed digicinevidedocumentariographer.
Today is the official release of Infinite Glitch, a project that’s been milling around in my brain for almost two years now. You can read through the description below or jump straight to the project page: http://infiniteglitch.com
Every day an incomprehensible number of new digital media files are uploaded to hosting sites across the internet. Far too many for any one person to consume. Infinite Glitch is a stream-of-conciousness representation of this overwhelming flood of media, its fractured and degraded sounds and images reflecting how little we as an audience are able to retain from this daily barrage.
Infinite Glitch is an automated system that generates an ever-changing audio/video stream from the constantly increasing mass of media files freely available on the web. Source audio and video files are ripped from a variety of popular media hosting sites, torn apart, and recombined using collage and glitch techniques to create an organic, chaotic flood of sensory input.
I have been mailing a VHS tape back and forth with Max Capacity in an ongoing collaboration entitled USPSVHS. Max recently uploaded some stills and animated gifs from the project – check out the complete series here.
