SUMMARY:June 2023 Frequency Fridays
DESCRIPTION:On the evening of Friday\, June 2nd\, we are delighted to present IOSIS\, the project of musician/composer/sound designer Alex Bissen (MN)\, artist/designer/composer Norman Long (ORD)\, experimental electronic music duo embral (IN/PA)\, and Jeff Chenault’s solo project Central Inhabitants. Doors 8:30pm\, show begins at 9:00pm sharp. $9.25 prepaid\, $10 at the door. \nCovid protocols: All attendees are strongly encouraged wear a mask regardless of vaccination status. We will provide masks at the door. We kindly request that audience members refrain from bringing food and drinks into the space. \nSupporters of our 2022-2023 season include the Greater Columbus Arts Council\, the Ohio Arts Council\, the National Endowment for the Arts\, New Music USA\, and the Columbus Foundation. \nAbout the artists:  \nIOSIS is the project of musician\, composer and sound designer Alex Bissen. IOSIS creates gnarled soundscapes\, lush atmospherics and fully enveloping visuals in the service of channeling ritualistic sonic experiences by primarily utilizing hardware synthesis means and electroacoustic techniques. The music of IOSIS welcomes elements of drone\, noise\, and ambient musical forms and textures alongside more traditional compositional structures and considerations\, employing instrumentation ranging from a vintage Roland Juno 6 to modern Eurorack modular systems to a contact-microphone-enabled Tibetan singing bowl. IOSIS is an emotionally transmutational artistic practice\, evolving as an entity of constant experimentation and redefinition of boundaries both within the studio and in the live performance space.  \nNorman W. Long is a sound artist/designer/composer born and raised on the south side of Chicago. His current work focuses on sound art production within the larger context of landscape. He has exhibited and/or performed in galleries Chicago\, Ithaca\, New York\, London\, and the San Francisco Bay Area. The processes involved in his practice lie within the area of field recording\, electro-acoustic composition and dub technique. His art/studio practice includes collecting\, performing and recording to create objects\, environments\, and situations in which the audience and himself are engaged in an open-ended dialogue about memory\, space\, value\, silence and the invisible.  \nembral is the duo of Adam Holquist (Erie\, PA) and Charles Shriner (Indianapolis\, IN). Beginning in 2012\, the pair have released three critically acclaimed studio albums\, eight live albums and given over 100 live performances\, first under their combined solo monikers of onewayness + dRachEmUsiK\, and continuing from 2017 as embral. Their music is often improvised and draws influence from a variety of musical and non-musical sources. \nJeff (Central) Chenault aka/ Central Inhabitants has been involved in the Columbus electronic music scene since 1983.Jeff’s current audio projects include Circuitry Room with former 10-Speed band mate Andy Izold along with longtime friend and collaborator Dan Rockwell. He is also working with French theremin player Jimmy Virani and percussionist extraordinaire Dave Cohen as The Escargonauts.

SUMMARY:Performance: TAK Ensemble + Versioning + Gerard Cox
DESCRIPTION:On Sunday\, June 11th\, we are excited to host contemporary chamber quintet TAK Ensemble\, Danielle Milam’s experimental electronic solo project Versioning\, and jazz improviser Gerard Cox. Doors 7:30pm\, show begins at 8:00pm. Performance will take place at the Old First Presbyterian Church (1101 Bryden Rd. 43205). $8.00 online\, $10 at the door. \nOur touring musician program is supported by New Music USA.  \nAbout the artists: \nRegarded as “one of the most prominent ensembles in the United States practicing truly experimental music” (I Care If You Listen)\, TAK delivers energetic performances “that combine crystalline clarity with the disorienting turbulence of a sonic vortex” (The WIRE)\, and “impresses with the organicity of their sound\, their dynamism and virtuosity” (New Sounds\, WQXR).   \nFounded on the principles of curiosity\, change\, and caring communication\, TAK is dedicated to the commissioning of new works and direct collaboration with composers and other artists and they have premiered hundreds of works to date. TAK is Laura Cocks\, flute; Madison Greenstone\, clarinet; Charlotte Mundy\, voice; Marina Kifferstein\, violin; Ellery Trafford\, percussion. \n2022-2023 marks TAK’s 10th anniversary season\, celebrating a decade of cultivating creative programming at the highest level. Upcoming projects include a new commission from Tyshawn Sorey to be premiered at Lincoln Center in fall 2022\, commissions from Michelle Lou and DM R with Joy Guidry to be premiered at TAK’s 10th anniversary celebration in May 2023\, and new works from Eric Wubbels\, Seth Cluett\, Natacha Diels\, Bryan Jacobs\, Elaine Mitchener\, Ann Cleare\, Weston Olencki\, and Jessie Cox. This season will also see the release of TAK’s first collaboratively composed work on dinzu artefacts. \nVersioning is Danielle Milam\, previously known as Sea Tone. Her sounds can be described as experimental electronic that flirts between ambient and noise soundscapes. \nGerard Cox is a pianist and drummer from Columbus with a keen interest in musical surrealism and the percussive nature of the piano. Born to a piano teacher Mom and a jazz saxophone hobbyist father\, clear “rockstar” inclinations were shown at age 8 in an appearance as J.S. Bach at an OMTA music festival and at 10 as Billy Idol in a look-a-like contest for the national pop/rock magazine Star Hits. Cox developed a love for jazz in high school on through college\, studying both jazz piano and B3 organ. While initially taken with the straight-ahead jazz of Art Blakey and Clifford Brown\, he followed John Coltrane’s discography into his later period music and this proved to be the gateway for a fascination with free jazz and all kinds of other outsider/experimental music.

SUMMARY:Performance: Sawt Out + Here Here + Eden Grey
DESCRIPTION:On Wednesday\, June 14th\, we are excited to host Berlin-based experimental trio Sawt Out\, improvisational trio Here Here\, and modular synthesist Eden Grey. Doors 7:30pm\, show begins at 8:00pm. Performance will take place at the Old First Presbyterian Church (1101 Bryden Rd. 43205). $8.00 online\, $10 at the door. \nOur touring musician program is supported by New Music USA. This performance is funded by the Berlin Senate Department for Culture and Europe. \nAbout the artists: \nSince its foundation in 2015 the Berlin-based trio Sawt Out has shaped and refined its profile as a prominent improvisational unit. With their unusual acoustic instrumentation of trumpet and two sets of percussion these three gentlemen create bewildering sound worlds rich in detail and of tight musical interaction. Sawt Out has played numerous concerts throughout Europe\, Asia and beyond. This current tour is their first live appearance in the US. \n“Here Here” is an intentionally rotating project of people/styles/music/improvisers lead by Caleb Miller. The ensemble exists as a way to explore “for the sake it”. Since 2017 the group has worked with a dizzying\, often non-repeating # of musicians across communities and genres around the midwest. This includes (but is not limited to) free jazz\, noise\, electronic music\, the music of the British 5tet “Polar Bear”\, rock-ish and classical-adjacent works. The group’s flagship 8tet recording “I Was Wrong About Most Things to Do With Other People” was released in 2021 under the Columbus label Very Much Recordings. \nEden Grey (aka Dr. Chelsea Bruno) is a music composer\, producer\, artist\, and founder of. @cv_freqs. modular synthesis events.
