Bob Ostertag and Pierre Hébert

"Living Cinema" is the creation of Quebecois filmmaker Pierre Hébert and San Francisco composer Bob Ostertag . This innovative project brings the creation of cinema out of the movie and recording studios and on to the stage. Ostertag has created custom software that allows the two artists to actually perform an animated movie with soundtrack, live on stage. They will perform their newest work Special Forces , which premiered last May in Beirut and San Francisco. Like their earlier works, it incorporates events from the world news; in this case, it begins with the Israeli invasion of Lebanon in the summer of 2006. Sonodendron is a fully immersive work that explores the sonic potentials of cello and electronics on both the microscopic and macroscopic scale. With a 5.1 Surround Sound score by Mem1 ( Laura Thomas-Merino , cello & M. Cera , electronics) and video by media artist Liora Belford , Sonodendron is a visceral tour through the bowels and ephemera of the cello.

Peformance: Robert Madler/Ike Yard

Performing under his IDM/electronica moniker Plasticity , New York-based composer Robert Madler will perform a set of electronic works that explore experimental beats, static drones, loops, polyrhythms and noise. A 2006 Harvestworks Artist In Residence, Madler's music has been featured at many universities in the US, including the SEAMUS festival, as well as in Canada, Mexicao, Spain and France.
Ike Yard , the early '80s No Wave-associated outfit that pushed the idea of experimental electro as far as anyone at that time, has gained new life due to 1980-82 Collected , a compilation of tracks recently released by Acute Records. Tonight, original members Stuart Argabright , Kenneth Compton and Michael Diekmann are performing live, showing off material from an upcoming release
