Since January 11th we've been here:
on a residency program sponsored by the Cite of Paris Dept. of International Affaires....
http://www.centre-les-recollets.com/After living in a windowless cube on the Northside of Williamsburg Brooklyn for the last 4 months of '07 this has certainly been an upbeat alternative for kicking 2008 off to a better start...
We get to stay here till the end of March and time is already flying by...
Anyone coming through Paris shouldn't hesitate to get in touch:
Either at : linton5.0@gmail.com
or landline: 01 53 26 21 48
There is already a lot going on during the period of our stay:
First:
there is a collaborative projection installation with the recently relocated (NY to Paris) Angie Eng...
this will be opening around Feb 20th at a place called Maison Populaire in the Parisian 'suburb' of Montreuil:
http://www.maisonpop.net/spip.php?article740 and will run through March 21st....
Next:
we will be throwing a self produced concert in a little hall called 'Campus' in the center of Paris (near Bastille) with a first time ever Bicameral Research Collaborative Trio comprised of myself doing the 'usual' analog Audio-Video Feedback System, David Watson on Bagpipe, and Angie Eng reprocessing and augmenting the live video chain... etc...
This trio will appear on a shared evening with Rhys Chatham's G3 group accompanied by the (in)famous Robert Longo slideshow 'Pictures for Music'. And also possibly a group lead by French godfather of abstract guitar JF Pauvros...
AND:
the first weekend of April - Saturday the 5th - we will bring UNITYGAIN to Paris!
(well another 'suburb' - actually Pont de Sevres) for a daylong into evening affaire at 'la General' an Artist's squat relocated recently from their former home in Belleville in the 20th arrondissement...
So if you know of audio visual performers in Paris or nearby who might enjoy participating please send them our way...
Likewise any UG regulars who feel like taking a little vacation in France should consider themselves invited to drop in and perform... etc...
So that's the high points so far... we will update these events with more specific information as each approaches via the "Events" section of the
