Paul D. Miller / DJ Spooky
New York, USA. 2009 25th of November, 6.00 PM
at Hermitage Theater, St.Petersburg Russia With his remix of “Kino-Glaz/Kino-Pravda” of Dziga Vertov, DJ Spooky wants to engage the 21st century fascination with realism and synthesis from archival resources and make a connection with some of the historical concepts that Vertov pioneered. DJ has re-scored and re-mixed the Vertov’s films with a contemporary soundtrack based on a combination of contemporary art’s dialectical relationship with video-montage and his work as a composer, artist, and writer. This project is just a first step along the path to understanding how cinema of the 20th century set the tone for the info-aesthetics of the 21st century.

The Phono tactics deals with the study of the groups of letters are allowable in a syllable or a word and the ones that are impossible by definition. Each place has a certain background sound whose characteristics, in fact, allow to identify the space, one way or another. Violations of these “rules of euphony” in the semantic, harmonic and tonal respects are what constitutes the object of the “exercises” in the phono tactics that are achieved through the Teremin and notebook computer.

Presentation of Russian Translation to Documentary Hosted by Sergey Teterin (Perm, Russia). 
This is one of the first films about the theremin filmed in the company of Bob Moog (the actual footage was made back in 1970s). The documentary contains many thoughts on the nature of the mysterious Russian electro-musical instrument – from the American point of view. Up front is Clara Rockmore, Theremin Prima. The presentation of the translation will be accompanied by the theremin story and the viewing of fragments from the film. |
Installation
ACT or a Symphony for 8 Slide ProjectorsAnna Frants: Concept
Sergey Komarov: Computer Programming
St.Petersburg - New York. 2009. Old slide projectors create visuals for the installation: high quality images of new art forms in St. Petersburg. In the same time projectors take part in creation of sound: rhythmical change of frames "sings along" with Brahms' music. This symphony is conducted by a Mac. Spectator selects pictures which he likes from the kaleidoscopic abundance of those, thereby taking part in creation of this world, where old and new technologies achieve ideal consonance and classical music accompanies a rather non-classical look at the city.

Third Eye OrchestraWorkshop and Performance by HANS TAMMEN
New York, USA. 2009
{ login: 'sergeyteterin', author: 'sergeyteterin', photo: '173293', offered: true, ticket: 'AADHp4w3BzU.9npfO 3tPFGcEcVI2.1yXoBRK1iAadApR69k', nodes: { confirm: 'photo-notes-confirm', text: 'photo-notes-text', add: 'photo-notes-add' }, areas: [ ] }
Following a workshop for electronic instrumentalists, the performance will see the conductor as a musician, using the orchestra as an instrument, while each laptop performer shapes the music through virtuosic improvisation and the individual stylization of musical performance. The piece employs the techniques of Hans Tammen's THIRD EYE ORCHESTRA concept, in which Tammen works with a score that is rearranged every time it is performed, and which is adaptable to any instrumentation. These open-form compositions for large ensembles are based on hundreds of “building blocks” that are constantly rearranged when performed.
