jazzy_daveTime for some divergent sounds -
Yatta - Blues
T-Bone Walker - Super Black Blues
SUNN O))) - Frost (C)
Jennifer Walshe - ALL THE MANY PEOPLS (excerts)
"All the Many Peopls", was a live event with the Irish artist and composer Jennifer Walshe.
All the Many Peopls combines a variety of musical genres through the use of visual and audio references and instruments, creating a fragmentary universe consisting of audio taken from recordings of interstellar noise made by space agencies, video games, sound from YouTube videos shot by soldiers on their phones in war zones and many more. These sounds are juxtaposed with archival footage from safety films and home movies, shot mostly in America in the mid-20th-century. As Jennifer Walshe herself says, the work consists of “a sort of debris we are living in every day”, in the form of random pieces of images and sounds from everyday life.
There are many areas of contact between the works of Jennifer Walshe and those of Joan Jonas: the investigation of the presence of the performative body; the use of a variety of artistic languages and technological media; the transactions between reality and scenic fiction; and the use of disguises and alter egos. In the work of both artists, one can observe the deconstruction of the physical identity and liberation of the personality of the artist, including gender-bound perceived images of women.
ENJOY
