Re: [microsound] open source/ open ear

[David Powers <cyborgk@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Timothy,

I'm really interested in doing a one-night performance - I haven't 
finalized the proposal as I'm still working out details and contacting 
potential collaborators.

However, the main event would be an experimental opera called 
"Hypocenter" - consisting primarily of improvised open form music, 
stretching across genres (jazz, classical, pop, tango) but primarily 
dwelling in the abstract/atonal/noise/texture side of things. There 
would also be some spoken text and dancers or silent actors.

I might follow this with some more beat oriented improvisations for the 
second half of the evening - if something people can dance to is also 
acceptable! :)

I intend to complete a full proposal very shortly.

Thanks,
David


I'd like to present a major work
