Hello unto you.
Good news for those of you living in the greater metropolitan downtown Los Angeles area – Dan Wininger of Amok Books has unsealed his vast storehouse of unusual, arcane and obscure volumes and set up shop not far away from the new city centre:
“By the way, (FYI) I am putting together my third bookshop at the moment – this will be in the same location as my last book shop:
Unusual Books
1228 West 7th Street
Los Angeles CA 90017
Should be opening in a week or so…
Best regards,
Dan Wininger (Danger) at Unusual Books.”
Subject: Call for Location Recordings
From: “Roger Mills” <roger [at] furthernoise [dot] org>
Date: Fri Jan 23, 2009 2:35 pm ((PST))
“I am working on a series of compositions for a radio project entitled Idea of South. ith a healthy nod to the seminal Canadian composer and pianist Glenn Gould, I want to use the mediums of radio and audio file download to create the opportunity for multi-layered indeterminate listening based on what it is to live in the south.
I am requesting 2 minute audio snapshots of locations in the Southern Hemisphere which will be compiled and edited into a larger body of work for radio. also ask for your locations latitude, and longitude co-ordinates, which will form the contour of an indeterminate tonal composition. The work will be exhibited as part of a sound installation at Loop Gallery, Newcastle, Australia in March 2009 and the final radio program will be aired in July. The recording and accompanying downloads will also be released as a hard copy album later in the year.
If you live in the Southern Hemisphere and would like to participate, please record a segment (no longer than 2 minutes) of a location of your choice, detailing the latitude and longitude of the location. Please also include any other information such as day, time, season, emotional relation to location and contact details. All contributors will be credited and by submitting recordings I assume your permission to use the material in the manner outlined, under Creative Commons Attribution-Share Alike 3.0.
Please upload stereo wavs or high quality (320k) mps to roger AT eartrumpet [dot] org via ftp http://www.yousendit.com. For those with access to a server I am happy to download from them.”
Thanks

BEATRICE GIBSON – “A Necessary Music” (2008, UK/USA, Beta, 20 minutes) – screening
“A Project by artist Beatrice Gibson, developed in collaboration with composer Alex Waterman. Narration by Robert Ashley. A NECESSARY MUSIC
is a science fiction film about modernist social housing. A musically conceived piece, referencing the video operas of composer Robert Ashley, the film explores the social imaginary of a utopian landscape through directed attention to the voices that inhabit it. Roosevelt Island is situated between Manhattan and Queens. Formally known as Welfare Island and originally home to New York’s largest insane asylum, and a range of other 19th century municipal facilities for incarceration, it now houses one of the cities most visible, yet little-known modernist social housing projects designed by Philip Johnson. A NECESSARY MUSIC employs the islands residents as its authors and actors. Gathering together texts written by them to construct its script and casting 17 residents to enact these lines, the film is accompanied by a fictional narration take from Adolfo Bioy Casares’ 1941 science fiction novel “The Invention of Morel”. Gradually dissolving from attempted realism to imagined narrative, what begins as a process concerned with sociality becomes instead an ethnographic fiction about place and community, and an investigation into representation itself.”

ED KASHI – “Shadows and Light in the Niger Delta” (photographs)
“This series of compelling photographs by award-winning photojournalist Ed Kashi shines a light on the devastating effect of half a century of oil exploration and exploitation in the Niger Delta. The twenty-six images in this exhibition make up a powerful and vivid inventory of the reality of oil’s catastrophic environmental and social impact in the region. More than 500 billion dollars of oil have been pumped out of the Niger Delta. Paradoxically, while most of Nigeria’s wealth comes from this region, these communities are the poorest in the nation as the harvesting of petroleum has replaced fulfillment of basic needs. Traditional fishing and agriculture have disappeared and local people are unable to feed themselves. Incessant gas flaring and oil spillages have contributed to undeterred environmental degradation of the delta, while rampant abuse and corruption exist at all levels.”

D. JEAN HESTER: “Said Too Much But Not Enough”
“D. Jean Hester utilizes the mediums of installation, drawing, and video to continue her ongoing investigation into the everyday failures and breathtaking catastrophes of human interaction and experience. Negotiating the precarious line between chaos and beauty, Hester’s imagery is meant to invoke anxiety and unease – a hovering on the edge of the unknown – and also enable viewers to project themselves into the landscape of the work.”
