I played a cell phone set in Philly this weekend. Zane from BNNDBKS set up the show at Dream Castle that was stocked with pretzels from a Phillies game. Everyone I met was great and totally willing to participate in the live text part of my cell show. Here’s some pics of some of the texts I received. I popped some of them into my text reader app and had it read them back to the audience. Then I moved on to jam on my John Cage Prepared Piano App, then my Sam Hilmer sample, then Tone Generator, Finger Beat…shit…these apps and the possibility of smart phones and micro technology is blowing my mind and taking my RAFT performances to a totally new and refreshing area where the audience is providing almost as much content as me! Thanks Philly peeps. Ya’all were superb…
ASSEMBLE X, 16 peformers playing A and E, drones and who knows what else….check the flyer, super excited about this one.!!!
RAFT and SNOECKHUNT played a cool show at the Spectrum in Manhattan last night, April 17. I was playing a variety of apps. IT was a stellar night with the LOXM gang from Brooklyn.

I miss my old friend Zebulon and especially PRACTICE, a series curated there by Sam Hilmer, it’s back at a new location called Public Assembly….tonight, Monday, March 11
I played a piece called #6 for this show at MC Gallery in Manhattan as part of a remote night of performances curated by Eli Lerhoof and Secret Project Robot art experiment. It is a drone piece derived from depressing the number 6 on my cell phone. As expected, I was asked to turn down:)….later in the night, Pat Spadine, Nick Lesley and myself did a collaborative piece that began with Mr. Spadine calling my cell phone and me looping his monologue. Nick was processing the sounds of his computer with a cell phone tap. Pat then came back to play these pitch pipes, which he made. Free wine and good cheese are always nice.
