This Saturday, April 13th, I’ll be showing some photographs at The Den Theatre in Wicker Park. The gallery show is part of a multimedia event being put on by Digital Gnosis, a duo of electronic musicians who will be doing a live audio/video performance of music from their latest release, 7.

The other visual artists participating are Nick Liberatore, Daniel Warlop, Tamie Yost, and Lauren Zens.

Admission to the event is $7 and includes a free flash drive of media, including images of art from myself and the other visual artists, as well as Digital Gnosis’s album. Tickets can be purchased here.

My photography will be on view this Friday, November 16th at the Co-Prosperity Sphere in Chicago’s Bridgeport neighborhood.

The exhibit, called Triangulation, uses the geometric concept to connect similar works by different artists and displays them in groups of threes. My work will be on display with pieces by Ryan Peter Miller and Marco Rosichelli.

Below are details for Friday’s opening reception, including all participating artists. For more background on the show’s concept, head to the Co-Prosperity Sphere’s website.

My track “Ultraviolet“ is featured in the short film Atlantis, written and directed by Matthew Ornstein. The film “dramatizes the final space shuttle launch and its significance in the history of space exploration for all mankind.”

Atlantis will be screening at the Santa Barbara International Film Festival today, January 30th, and this Friday, February 3rd. Screening details are available here.

Experimental filmmaker Robert Nelson died earlier this week. His films, which displayed a remarkable combination of humor, wit, playfulness, and accessibility - all rare things in the avant-garde - have had an enormous impact on me and countless other artists. With the assistance of film preservationist Mark Toscano, I screened his film Bleu Shut at Northwestern University’s Block Cinema in 2006. It’s truly one of the best and most revolutionary films I’ve ever seen.

Mark has posted a poignant tribute on his blog. Rest in peace, Robert.

“Ultraviolet” named a Top Track of 2011

Music blog haonowshaokao, run by a Briton currently living in Beijing, has listed my song “Ultraviolet” as #80 on his 200 top tracks of 2011. It falls even higher on the list than some of the best tracks of the year from Oneohtrix Point Never, Real Estate, M83, and Peaking Lights, which is quite flattering.

Citing a lack of information about me on the internet, he quoted a lyrical excerpt from the track review written by 20 Jazz Funk Greats.

If you don’t already have a copy of “Ultraviolet,” grab one for free from Bandcamp.
