OMG, had such a blast playing a duo set with Wendy Eisenberg + Josiah McElheny's singing paintings (and his Serge-controlled glass-headed floor tom homage to Milford Graves) last night at The Kitchen. This is why you do what you do (or at least I do). https://t.co/xHW4z4Fw3g

Anthony McCall's exhibition "Solid Light, 1973, 2020, 2026" opens from 6-8pm tonight at the Sean Kelly Gallery in Manhattan. I'm excited to have contributed soundtracks to two of the three pieces in the exhibition, including the brand-new "Swarm," featuring Christopher McIntyre.

It contains essays by John Corbett and me and a poem by Gregg Bordowitz, and a CD of the same title bringing together my soundtracks for the artworks is coming in November from CvsD. The publication will be available during Josiah's exhibition at The Kitchen. 174 views · 0 likes · 0 reposts · 0 replies Open on X →
