Guitar solo Epiphany at Greenwich House, Saturday night<br /><br /><a href="http://www.alansondheim.org/hardsolo.png">http://www.alansondheim.org/hardsolo.png</a><br /><a href="https://youtu.be/ig0Puufa7_Y">https://youtu.be/ig0Puufa7_Y</a> VIDEO (earphones if possible)<br /><br />This was a hard solo. I was nervous. I wore my 2600 hat shielding<br />the light. Stephen Dydo gave me a Tibetan shirt he brought back<br />from Ladakh which matched his own. I was thinking about Xinjiang,<br />Tibet, China. I wanted to play has fast as possible. I wanted<br />to see what I could do. I wanted to prove I could play as well now<br />as I did then. I wanted to honor the guitar I was playing which<br />has been with me for over half a century. I wanted to honor the<br />maker of the guitar, Di Giorgio, and the restorer from the early<br />1980s, Candelario Delgado, one of the great Los Angeles guitar<br />makers. I wanted to prove my athleticism in my fingers, my hands,<br />my arms, not muscular but quick. I wanted to play so fast my mind<br />couldn't wander. I wanted to think through the sound, not around<br />it. I wanted never to know what was coming next. I wanted the<br />sound to take control. I wanted nothing else but that sound. I<br />wanted time to stop. I didn't want to know where or when I was. I<br />wanted all this all at once. I wanted this perfection. I wanted<br />nothing else and everything and nothing. I played for hours in<br />little more than three minutes. I practiced for weeks. I forgot<br />literally how to slow down. I literally couldn't. I literally<br />could only go the way it went. I literally could stop only when<br />it stopped.<br /><br />Video by Azure Carter, thanks to Stephen Dydo, Robert, Withers.<br />More from this soon.

Arm and Hand Access Grid Worldwide Tour<br />
<br />
http://www.alansondheim.org/armandhand.png<br />
https://youtu.be/j9CPU9XP5ys video<br />
<br />
from nearly before or after 2007-2008, early experiment using<br />
the access grid which allows multiple cameras and microphones<br />
from a single location to connect to the same at another<br />
location. designed for invisible walls classroom use, the setup<br />
is complex. we used the access grid at the virtual environments<br />
lab at west virginia university in a number of ways; one of the<br />
main ones involved bouncing an audio/video signal around the<br />
world through other nodes, back to the lab in morgantown. by<br />
using video feedback, i.e. the camera and mics aimed at the<br />
receiving monitor, we were able to create closed circuits or<br />
loops from morgantown through various other sites, including one<br />
in new south wales, australia. in other words, the usual video<br />
feedback occurred, but with delay occasioned by each layer<br />
looping the entire globe. we used azure carter as subject for he<br />
most part, looping sound and site and motion; in this earlier<br />
experiment (which btw involved multiple computers in morgantown<br />
as well; the software was complex), we used my waving hand for<br />
proof of concept. the delays and color shifts were the result of<br />
the signal travel. the procedure reminded me of the even older<br />
email bangpaths that allowed one to send a file anywhere through<br />
specified nodes.<br />
<br />
in those days, not very long ago, i was also thinking about net<br />
weather, the conditions of the routers, interferences, bad<br />
connections, local gaps, and so forth; i remember being able to<br />
tell the 'state of the net' in a particular direction by the<br />
rate and interruptions of packets. michel serres' book on the<br />
parasite was in the back of my mind, as was the collection of<br />
texts on the very early net by peter salus. the only originality<br />
i could claim here is the use and present/presencing of the body<br />
itself, the somatic and almost punk register of the process or<br />
piece, something i continue to think about and work through.<br />
because we have our bodies have us and it's the appearance of<br />
this momentary thickening we call a lifespan that's dependent on<br />
the permeability of the world's fabric.<br />
<br />
this quote from a letter by dylan thomas to pamela hansford<br />
johnson, in october 1933, is relevant i think:<br />
<br />
"I fail to see how the emphasizing of the body can, in any way,<br />
be regarded as hideous. The body, its appearance, death, and<br />
diseases, is a fact, sure as the fact of a tree. It has roots in<br />
the same earth as the tree. The greatest description I know of<br />
our 'earthiness' is to be found in John Donne's _Devotions,_<br />
where he describes man as earth of the earth, his body earth,<br />
his hair a wild shrub growing out of the land. All thoughts and<br />
actions emanate from the body. Therefore the description of a<br />
thought or action - however abstruse it may be - can be beaten<br />
home by bringing it on to a physical level. Every idea,<br />
intuitive or intellectual, can be imaged and translated in terms<br />
of the body, its flesh, skin, blood, sinews, veins, glands,<br />
organs, cells, or senses."<br />
<br />
(p. 27 The Notebooks of Dylan Thomas, ed. Ralph Maud.)<br />
<br />
the gendering is a problem of course, but the thinking of earth,<br />
what i consider emanant, emanation or effluvia, avatar imaginary<br />
or dissipating rootedness, relates well to the body immersed<br />
within the access grid, or rather the imagine/imaginary of the<br />
body traversing the access grid, and i, we, they will stop here.<br />

So we went to rebook and I waited in line to<br />rebook and finally cut in saying look I was assaulted, I'm in<br />shock, we have to leave, the police were called. And was told to<br />wait my turn. At which point I screamed, kicked the elevator<br />door; it came, I went in, still kicking, out of my mind. Never<br />got to see the doctor. Came back shaky. Called some friends. Of<br />course then recorded with sindhi sarangi,<br /><a class="ot-anchor" href="http://espdisk.com/alansondheim/afterassault1.mp3" style="color: #3366cc; cursor: pointer; text-decoration: none;">http://espdisk.com/alansondheim/afterassault1.mp3</a> nice and calm<br />and beautiful with the new drone string, then a choppier version<br />with sarangi, <a class="ot-anchor" href="http://espdisk.com/alansondheim/afterassault2.mp3" style="color: #3366cc; cursor: pointer; text-decoration: none;">http://espdisk.com/alansondheim/afterassault2.mp3</a><br />and did I tell you healthcare sucks in the city, but I'll drone<br />my way out of it...</div>

Electronic Literature Organization Conference<br />

Morgantown, WV<br />

Some images - ranging from interesting to mundane. The last group<br />
is best looked at small. The panoramas work best at original size.<br />
This isn't a recording of anything except my carrying cameras;<br />
a few people; hiking around Cooper's Rock; walking around Morgan-<br />
town; the 123 club where I've played a few times; some buildings<br />
of interest including a few the conference was held in; a true<br />
bug (hemiptera) I need to identify; young rattlesnake; etc. The<br />
talks were great - our panels were terrific, and I met some good<br />
people and saw some friends, Tim and Helen and Frances and Rachel<br />
and Frank, wonderful!<br />

<br />American Museum of Natural History<br /><br />relatively unlabeled hodge-podge of biodiversity (which is rapidly<br />coming to an end as extinctions increase world-wide). the flora,<br />fauna, fungi, and so forth are indicated by shape and design, not<br />by biomes (although to be fair, the rest of the museum is based on<br />them) - the design exhausts the idea of natural history, which is<br />neither nature nor history, nor any combination of these troubled<br />terms. the museum itself is caught in a time-warp of a dying<br />planet: the bookstore features books about the crisis, and the<br />wild animal panoramas now seem sepulchers. the museum is a tomb of<br />life-forms, doing what it can against the onslaught. the life-<br />forms themselves are mythologies denuded of microbial and other<br />subtle environmental factors; what counts is display. there were<br />children everywhere, loving it; i hope at the very least that the<br />sense of wonder that was clearly awakened leads to commitment<br />before it's too late for all of us.<br /><br /><a class="ot-anchor" href="http://www.alansondheim.org/amnh3.jpg" style="color: #3366cc; cursor: pointer; text-decoration: none;">http://www.alansondheim.org/amnh3.jpg</a><br /><a class="ot-anchor" href="http://www.alansondheim.org/amnh4.jpg" style="color: #3366cc; cursor: pointer; text-decoration: none;">http://www.alansondheim.org/amnh4.jpg</a><br /><a class="ot-anchor" href="http://www.alansondheim.org/amnh5.jpg" style="color: #3366cc; cursor: pointer; text-decoration: none;">http://www.alansondheim.org/amnh5.jpg</a><br /><a class="ot-anchor" href="http://www.alansondheim.org/amnh6.jpg" style="color: #3366cc; cursor: pointer; text-decoration: none;">http://www.alansondheim.org/amnh6.jpg</a><br /><a class="ot-anchor" href="http://www.alansondheim.org/amnh7.jpg" style="color: #3366cc; cursor: pointer; text-decoration: none;">http://www.alansondheim.org/amnh7.jpg</a><br /><a class="ot-anchor" href="http://www.alansondheim.org/amnh8.jpg" style="color: #3366cc; cursor: pointer; text-decoration: none;">http://www.alansondheim.org/amnh8.jpg</a></div>

<br />
Looking Easier Than Reading<br />
<br />
The physicality of the anomaly always asserts itself, even down the<br />
hierarchy of protocol layers. Google is everywhere, tabulating these and<br />
others; sometimes the real takes over when processing slows and crashes; I<br />
had one such crash during the making of the image. But the obdurate is<br />
there, among the remnants of sex, which are not there, and death, which<br />
is: that is the only equation, and one that persists in existing until<br />
life is eradicated. We can't place our bets because there will be no one<br />
to collect. Many such images as these are on many such planets, however<br />
ephemeral; even Mars has its markings. If a tree falls, it falls, and it's<br />
gone, just as the sound is gone. These gasped at zero to forty miles an<br />
hour and the next time the configuration will be different, as it already<br />
is, fading, history is fading. The truth, Badiou, is that books don't live<br />
forever, and Google's privacy is a sham. Anyone can burrow the database<br />
from within; we all live in tunnels beneath the firewalls where there is<br />
nothing done, nothing to be done. A friend of mine constantly takes notes<br />
to use against people. Badiou takes notes to how how the world's held, but<br />
the world's held up by philosophy in both senses of the phrase, just not<br />
in the physical. It's on the way out. We're on the way out, we're already<br />
"that class," as my grade school teacher said, implying we'd live forever<br />
in infamy. She's dead now, everything in the world is different and<br />
sattered, shattering. If you're born in the middle of it, you die in the<br />
middle of it. We're just desperate to keep alive, we dream of sex and<br />
fantasy, in the imaginary, die, in the real, and grovel in surplus in the<br />
symbolic. These images are tombstone, graves, they're beneath the ground,<br />
on the bridge they're struggling. I do philosophy this way because it's<br />
easier to read.<br />

The Fire Museum and Cauldron record release event -
at the Highwire, Philadelphia, last night

(our full set)
Helena Espvall, cello, electronics
Azure Carter, songs, voice
Alan Sondheim, sarangi, oud, cura cumbus, viola (in that order)
Songs: Buried, Blood Tantra, Creatures
This is a rough recording, with the sarangi under-recorded,
and Helena and Azure under-recorded on and off; I used a small
Marshall amp (which unfortunately was directed towards the zoom);
Helena and Azure used a large stage amp/mixer system (which
unfortunately was pointed elsewhere). But you'll get the idea.
The bill also included Dan Joseph on hammered dulcimer, and
the Jesse Kudler/Barry Weisblat Duo on electronics. The evening
was a success! We had a full audience. Thanks to everyone
who helped put the event together.</span></span></h6>

I'm not sure<br />this is possible; I'm bringing a small amp, the MOTU which needs<br />tuning itself, and an instrument mic. Hopefully we can get this to<br />work out; otherwise voice and instruments might fall flat. In the<br />meantime, these three pieces give a good example of what I'm hoping<br />we can achieve; Azure's songs are beautiful, but the instruments<br />are of course difficult - at least here, they're within a range of<br />somewhat perfection?<br />Sondheim Archives: voice, sarangi, viola, oud<br /><a class="ot-anchor" href="http://lounge.espdisk.com/" style="color: #3366cc; cursor: pointer; text-decoration: none;">lounge.espdisk.com</a><br />Audio clip: Adobe Flash Player (version 9 or above) is required to play this audio clip.
