Live Stage: {R} A K E [
Brooklyn, NY]

{R} A K E – A performance series of alternative and collaborative electro-acoustic music and video :: Set 1 – DJ Olive, Music; Dan Winckler, Video; Set 2 – Audrey Chen, Music; Richard Garet, Video; Set 3 – Charles Cohen and Hair Loss, Music; Josh Ott – Video :: January 30, 2008; 8 – 10:30 pm :: Monkey Town, 58 North 3rd Street (bet. Kent & Wythe), Williamsburg, Brooklyn.
For January, {R}ake stays close to its roots. We’ve paired-up musicians and video-artists who haven’t formally collaborated together to present a night of truly improvisational multimedia performances. Josh Ott brings his realtime 3D video-drawings to play against Charles Cohen’s and Hair Loss’ noisy analog electronics; Audrey Chen brings a her cello / vocals-based electro-acoustic music to play against Richard Garet’s sometimes ambient, sometimes electrically-charged video; and the estimable DJ Olive brings his prototypical vino-electronics to play against the often – interactive / often – something – new video of Dan Winckler.
{R}ake is a performance series of alternative and collaborative electro-acoustic music and video. Performances range from pure improvisation to more structured pieces, with video-artists and musicians working together in exploratory ways.
Monkey Town serves dinner during the show, so come hungry.
