This weekend at LAND AND SEA
Friday 4/28 Short Film Screening AT LAND AND SEA 8:30 DOORS 9PM START
Rites/Rituals, Sacrament, Anointing of The Sick
A trilogy of short films which explore the parallels between the recognizable rituals of popular organized religions and the latent rites subliminally and repeatedly performed within the constructs of an intimate relationship. Created over the course of three years, the trilogy relays a non-linear narrative rooted in repetition, with original scores composed by HIDE member Seth Sher.

Saturday 4/29 Black Flame Exhibit AT LAND AND SEA 4-8PM
Black Flame is an audio and visual installation comprised of material (paper) and ethereal (breath) elements exploring the space created by invisibility or marginalization as an opportunity for personal transformation. A series of photographs of a fe**sh garment dance like fire, fanned by a desire for autonomy and a decided, determined
resistance.

ABOUT JOHN BENDER:
John Bender recorded voraciously between 1978 and 1980 at his home in Cincinnati, Ohio. While I Don't Remember Now / I Don't Want To Talk About It, his first album from 1980, is impossibly rare and the man behind the music remains shrouded in self-imposed mystery, the real surprise is that it has taken 35+ years for listeners to discover Bender's warm, art-damaged immediacy. https://www.superiorviaduct.com/collections/john-bender

John Bender is without any doubt, the protagonist, if not the inventor of a whole musical-genre known as Cold Minimal Wave/Synth. His synthesizer-sounds already carried elements of techno and acid-beats while techno was still to be invented a decade later. His voice and his partially sentimental and mourning lyrics made his music to something outstanding and extraordinary, unheard before in this mixture. His three self-released Lp’s „I don’t remember now (1980), Plaster Falling (1981) and Pop Surgery (1983) are a must-have for every serious collector and interested person in such cold-wave/minimal-synth/techno-sounds.(vinyl on demand)

THE FOLLOWING SATURDAY, JANUARY 28TH. 8PM
AN EVENING OF TWO SOLO PERFORMANCES BY:
DANISHTA RIVERO
ALEX VITTUM
$5-$10 SLIDING SCALE/PLEASE BRING CASH
Alex Vittum performs electroacoustic techno and ambient music as Intervales. He uses found objects combined with drum machines and field recordings to create polyrhythmic soundscapes.

Danishta Rivero is a musician and sound artist based in Oakland. She is a vocalist who performs on electronics and the Hydrophonium, a water-based electro-acoustic percussion instrument she created. Rivero performs solo as well as with her electro-acoustic duo Voicehandler with percussionist Jacob Felix Heule. She is also half of Las Sucias, a feminist noise reggeatón duo with Alexandra Buschman.

From Chris Duncan:

hello please join me next sunday, October 30th from 3-5pm at the Headlands Center for the Arts for the culmination of my project space residency.

​The show is called THESE ARE NOT FALL COLORS. it will be comprised of all new site specific sun exposure paintings, two large scale rubbings on fabric and a sound piece. The sound work and the rubbings on fabric were done in an ocean cave about a 30 minute hike north of Rodeo Beach. Just about everyday for the past three months I would hike to the cave, listen to the ocean, think and respond to what has become a very special place to me.
The Headlands has truly impacted me..hard to explain but totally real.
I invite you to see the physical and sonic repercussions of my time spent there.
Theres a dinner at 5:30 as well.
Come hang and eat. Theres a good chance I will perform as well.
Hope to see you.
