Phill Niblock Events list for 2010

Concert in Bohemian National Hall, NYC, by Martin Janácek and Phill Niblock, with Byron Westbrook, guitar and Petr Kotik, flute.

The concert will take place in Club of the Bohemian National Hall, 321 East 73 street New York, U.S.A. on 4th March 2010, 7.30 pm.

These two artists met thanks to Milos Vojtechovsky, who organised nearly a decade of Hermit symposia in Plasy, Czech Republic, since 1992. Martin Janácek played together with Michael Northam and Michael Delia at Experimental Intermedia studio, New York, organised by Phill Niblock in 2002.

Thanks to Jim Staley of Roulette for making this possible on such short notice.

The World premier of Remo Osaka 1 and 2, was February 26 2010, at Remo in Osaka.

February 26-28 - Phill Niblock [The Movement of People Working] Live Performance + Exhibition
"After making three events for them since 2001, the people of Remo Osaka invited me to come to Osaka and make a new video of the Movement of People Working, a project which I stopped filming / videoing in 1991. And by golly, it is fun, and I am doing it."
Two videos, November 2009 and February 2010, with music by PN

In the end, I shot and edited and color corrected video for four days, then showed the new video (1:42) plus the one from November 2009 (1:13), in a double screen installation on the 5th, 6th, and 7th days. Plus there was a concert on the 5th day, with those videos and older film / video from 1988. Remo constructed a new, pure white, flat screen / wall, for the occasion.

This event is in memory of Jens Röhm of the Nelly Boyd Ensemble of Hamburg

While his own music is noted for its length and stillness (he does a 6-hour concert at his loft every December), Niblock is a huge fan of early jazz and bebop, and will be bringing some of his favorite high-speed saxophone music to play on the air." KG

The Sound Delta + performance in this festival will incorporate material from the Danube residency as well as other related

recordings and footage into a live mix.

Kristin Norderval with Katherine Liberovskaya. Matt Rogalsky is also on this program

Kristin Norderval will perform a multi-media work for voice, interactive audio processing and live video processing (Katherine Liberovskaya). Tattooed Ghosts is part of FLUDD - Virtual Polar Icecap Meltdown, a larger work that is inspired by, and uses excerpts from, Dina Von Zweck's monumental literary work of the same name. Here, melting icecaps are conceived of as a flood of waters releasing the Arctic's profound secrets. In the final three sections of this work, presented here as Tattooed Ghosts, myth, poetry and song trace the accumulation of ocean contaminants.
