Yesterday there was a free concert given at the Chicago Cultural Center by Evan Parker and Ned Rothenberg. This was part of the New Millenium, New Music series. Here is a clip I found on YouTube of a similar performance of theirs. Listen around 2:30 for some really interesting percussive bass clarinet work.



Inspired by this, I have picked up the clarinet again. This may not last.

ha-ha

Here are some really bad scans of some portraits I did for the My Face In Your Space show at Nexus in Philadelphia.


(An homage to Mollie's permanent hair-do.)


(this one suffers from lack of time spent. There were originally lots of teeth in the background and I had painted on the backside of Jenna's face, which was somewhat luminescent through the tracing paper. That version I destroyed, and was left with this lesser one.)


(Laura Lewis as a haniwa statue.)
