Re: Intermedia Art at Roulette: IKUE MORI, DAVID FIRST & JIM STALEY

Hi Lee,

Sorry all those emails come at once. I post each concert to the Rhizome
calendar, and then an email automatically is sent to the list for each
day…each email is about a different show. It seems to be the best way to
get the info out and I have had some interest from many people on the
list…

Jess

>> Staley and First will stick to the acoustic and electroacoustic realm.

>> jazz. He has collaborated for many years with other highly experienced
>> improvisers, both dancers and musicians, including Sally Silvers, Pooh Kaye,

>> David First has had a pretty eclectic musical career. He has played guitar
>> with everyone from Cecil Taylor to Television�s Richard Lloyd, created
>> electronic music at Princeton University and led a Mummer�s String Band in
>> bicentennial parades. As a composer he has is known for his long, severely
>> minimalist soundscapes. The New York Times calls First "a fascinating artist
>> with a singular technique", and the Village Voice, "a bizarre cross between
>> Hendrix and La Monte Young."

>> Ikue Mori began her musical activity playing drums with the seminal DNA band
>> (with Arto Lindsay and Tim Wright) in the late 70s. She is a recipient of the
>> Prix Ars Electronics Digital Music Award of Distinction. She has worked with

>> Electric Masada. Current working groups include Mephista with Sylvie
>> Courvoisier and Susie Ibarra, a quartet with Kim Gordon, DJ Olive and Jim
>> O�Rourke and a duo project with Zeena Parkins.
