TSC at the NUStival
Takahashi’s Shellfish Concern at the NUStival. Manchester. November 25, 2010
The Innie and the Outie I was performed at NUStival in Manchester on Nov. 14, 2010. It was the first time I strung a wire onto the canvas as part of the performance.
The night also included a performance from Domestic Violence, who are some very awesome and talented people. We went out for drinks afterward where we learned this fact, and had them crash at our house since they had to get back in the morning. Tikul had this to say about our performance on her blog. I’m really glad she liked it!
“thanks to those guys who invited us we could perform on their noise event and see their project performance – Takahashi’s Shellfish Concern.. which i truly loved… while Rodrigo and Anton were creating amazing sound scapes on guitar pedal effects and iPad with various audio applications, Angela was harshly and sensually painting the canvas with water paint her hands and brushes.. and random objects [nails, string].. contact mikes were placed under the canvas so every motion she made was translated into sound.. all streams altogether changed into very clean and energetic clangour sonic journey… this act is ideally reflecting my idea of having sound/vision combined with physical movement..”
Deep Digging
Archeology has never been so DIRTY! Finally a delightful little gem that merges archeology and pornography in 21 vibrant black and white A6 pages! Sexy! I co-wrote it with Rodrigo Constanzo, originally as a concept for film on a road trip back from Tallahassee.
Here. Have a look at it! I’ve made a pdf you of it that you can access for free.
