Stuart Popejoy: “VOID” with Chris Dingman
Stuart Popejoy and Chris Dingman will perform “Void,” an extended
algorithmic composition by Stuart Popejoy for electric bass and
vibraphone. The piece begins with inversions of a single tetrad chord,
which are then polyphonically mutated through three generations of a
combinatorial process, before presenting the same tetrad and mutations
in melodic space. The performers are free to pace and texture the
evolving sounds improvisationally, creating a multi-dimensional
excursion through the motific procedure.

Sarah Bernstein – violin/voice/processing
Satoshi Takeishi – drums

Violinist/vocalist Sarah Bernstein is joined by percussionist Satoshi
Takeishi for a set of original music and spoken text. Bernstein’s
compositions deftly integrate form, improvisation, processing and
poetry, complemented by Takeishi’s expressive mastery on the drums.
The duo will perform pieces from their recent release “Unearthish.”

WordPress EventCalendar loop query

I’m using the EventCalendar plugin on this site for my shows, which works well and is really easy to use.

EC3 has a bunch of automatic query pages to display various kinds of event selections, but I wanted a dedicated calendar page for the nice URL. I needed to set up the loop query to select the EC event posts. After staring at the EC3 code for a while this is what worked:


$ec3->join_ec3_sch=true;
$ec3->order_by_start=true;
add_filter('posts_orderby','ec3_filter_posts_orderby',11);
query_posts("ec3_after=" . date('Y-m-d'));

I haven’t gotten comments going on the site yet cuz I’m terrified of comment spam, so for comments/questions/flames contact me at the email addy in the footer.

Trax from the upcoming Bassoon CD

Here’s some recently-mastered action from Bassoon’s long-awaited CD release. Yes it’s been sold via homemade CDRs before but it’s got a new song (Rope), I remixed the whole thing for greater awesomeness, and got it mastered with Colin Marston, so it’s even more roque-ing!!
