SUMMARY:BERNHARD GAL / JESSE KUDLER / SCOTT ALLISON / PHILL SHELDON
DESCRIPTION:The Austrian artist\, composer and musicologist Bernhard Gal has become\ninternationally known as one of the most prolific sound artists of a\nyounger generation. During the past ten years Gal has created around\n50 sound installations and media art projects\, combining sound\, light\,\nobjects\, spatial concepts and video projections into intense and often\nsite-specific interdisciplinary art works. He also composes music for\nacoustic instruments and electro-acoustic music\, as well as performing\nlive as a (laptop) musician. \nBorn in Vienna\, Austria in 1971\, Gal began to nurture his interest in\nmusic and (sound) art around 1985. After studies at Vienna’s\nUniversity of Music (Sound Engineering) and the University of Vienna\n(Musicology)\, and a year-long residency in New York City in 1997ñ98\,\nhe has focused on his compositional and artistic activities. He runs\nthe record label Gromoga Records and is director of the Austrian art\norganization ‘sp ce’. Together with Ernst Reitermaier\, he curates the\nViennese Festival ‘Shut up and Listen!’. Currently\, Gal lives as a\nfreelance composer and artist in Vienna and Berlin where he also\nteaches sound art at the University of Arts. \nAn important aspect of his work is the combination of music with other\nart forms\, in solo projects as well as in collaborations\, e.g. since\n1997 with the Japanese architect Yumi Kori (‘audio-architectural\ninstallations’). As a (laptop) musician\, Gal performs in solo concerts\nand has worked together with musicians such as Tung Chao-Ming\, Kai\nFagaschinski and Jennifer Walshe. \nGal’s work has been presented in concerts\, sound installations\,\nexhibitions\, and radio portraits in Europe\, Asia\, and the Americas and\nperformed by ensembles worldwide. He has been invited to numerous\ninternational music and art festivals (including Wien Modern Vienna;\nICMC Berlin; MaerzMusik Berlin; Nuova Consonanza Rome; MATA Festival\nNew York; Soundfield Chicago; Mutek Montreal) and frequently gives\nlectures and workshops. \nFor his music and art projects Gal has received numerous awards\,\nincluding the Karl Hofer Prize Berlin 2001\, an Annual Grant from\nSKE-Fonds Vienna 2002\, a composer fellowship from the DAAD Artists in\nBerlin Programme 2003\, and the Austrian State Scholarship for\nComposition 2004. Bernhard Gal’s music has been made available on more\nthan 25 audio publications. In 2005\, the German publishing house\nKehrer Verlag Heidelberg published the comprehensive catalogue book\n‘Installations’\, documenting Gal’s intermedia installations since\n1999. \nJESSE KUDLER guitar\, electronics\, radio\, tapes\nSCOTT ALLISON laptop\, electronics \nJesse Kudler\, born 1979\, improvises on guitar\, synthesizer\, tapes\,\nradios and electronics\, and he makes music on the computer. He\nattended public school until Wesleyan University\, where he studied\nmusic with Ron Kuivila\, Alvin Lucier\, and a little bit with Anthony\nBraxton\, among others. He eventually became active as an organizer\nand performer in improvised\, experimental\, and electronic music\,\nforming a regular duo with fellow student Jonathan Zorn and leading\nthe large electronic improvising ensemble Phil Collins. Kudler has\nalso worked as a recording engineer for various projects. \nIn his various travels\, Kudler has performed with Matt Bauder\, Kyle\nBruckmann\, Gene Coleman\, James Coleman\, Tim Feeney\, Marcos Fernandes\,\nBrent Gutzeit\, Horse Sinister\, Bonnie Jones\, Jason Kahn\, Mazen\nKerbaj\, Pauline Oliveros\, Bhob Rainey\, Vic Rawlings\, Christine\nSehnaoui\, Mike Shiflet\, Jason Soliday\, Howard Stelzer\, Matt Weston\,\nJason Zeh\, Jack Wright\, and many others.

He is a guitarist in the rock bands Burrs and also\nDog On The Loose. He also began a small cassette and CDR label called\nDHW with his friend Caitlin Cunningham. Some of his favorite\ninfluences are Armand Schaubroeck\, Brainbombs\, Matthew Bowers\, and\nTakehisa Kosugi. Phill Sheldon endeavors to play a sort of geriatric\nrock that is diffuse and plodding enough to be appropriate to a mood\nof excessive alcohol ingestion\, isolation\, and hand wringing. During\nthis evening Phill Sheldon and a small group will enact monotonous\nhomage to Phill Sheldon’s favorite rock albums and alcohol drinks.\nPhill Sheldon will contribute any profits from audience donations or\nsale of merchandise recordings toward the Pennsylvania Department Of\nAging’s emergency fund\, a tax-exempt reserve that allots money to\nimpoverished Pennsylvania seniors at imminent risk of death or severe\ninjury.
