HOLOCENE’S 22ND ANNIVERSARY NIGHT 1- Quadrophonic sound featuring: Byron Westbrook Marcus Fischer Sanae Yamada – 21+
This is a special seated show in our front lounge room, presented in quadrophonic sound. This event is co-presented with Megalith. First emerging from within New York’s experimental music scene over the last decade and a half and now based in LA, Byron Westbrook has woven intricate tapestries of sonority that bridge the worlds of sound art, installation, avant-garde electronic music and synthesis. Westbrook creates sculptural and immersive compositions, with highly acclaimed releases on imprints like Shelter Press, Important Records, Root Strata, Hands In The Dark, Umor Rex, and Ash International, presentations at the Walker Art Center, ICA London, MOCA Los Angeles, MoMA PS1, MaerzMusik, Akousma and Rewire Festivals, as well as residencies with Headlands Center, Civitella Ranieri Foundation, ISSUE Project Room, EMS Stockholm. For this evening at Holocene, Westbrook presents his work Translucents (Shelter Press, 2024), in an expanded, multi-channel audio configuration. Inspired by viewing the color panels of abstract painter Blinky Palermo, Translucents explores the concept of “audio after-image”. The piece presents a series of immersive ‘audio images’, where each consecutive scene is influenced by the residue of the previous one, in a perceptual play with memory, presence, and time. Marcus Fischer is an interdisciplinary artist and musician based in Portland, Or. A first-generation American artist who creates, collects, and transforms sound into immersive, layered compositions that accompany performances and exhibitions. Site-specific assemblages of exposed speakers, tape loops, and objects are characteristic of his installations, paired with melodies of restraint and tension. He has released numerous recordings—both solo and collaborative —on 12k, a label that has decisively defined and developed its own concept of minimalism in the realms of experimental and ambient music. Fischer contributed two sound works and two performances to the 2019 Whitney Biennial and has been selected for residencies at the Robert Rauschenberg Foundation, Rauschenberg Residency, the Bemis Center for Contemporary Art and MacDowell. In 2024 he was awarded The Ford Family Foundation’s Hallie Ford Fellowship in the Visual Arts as well as the International Music & Composition Fellowship from the Montalvo Arts Center’s Sally & Don Lucas Artists Program. Sanae Yamada is musician and composer currently based in Portland, OR. Since 2009 she has recorded & toured as half of the band Moon Duo (with Ripley Johnson) and solo under the name Vive la Void. She has also created a score and soundscape in collaboration with the theater company Half-Straddle for the play Is This A Room, which premiered at The Kitchen in 2019 and ran on Broadway in 2021. Her ambient work can be heard as part of the Longform Editions library & on the art podcast Line Time. Her work explores trance states, organic forms, & the nature of consciousness.

Matmos w/ Arch Cape – 21+
Based in Baltimore, Matmos is Drew Daniel and M.C. Schmidt. The two have been making music as Matmos since 1997, first in San Francisco, and then relocating to Baltimore in 2007 when Daniel began to teach at Johns Hopkins University. They are respected, innovative auteurs in the world of electronic music and sampling culture whose very first album was hailed as “entering electronics Valhalla” by the WIRE magazine for sampling highly unusual sound sources such as the amplified nerve tissue of crayfish. Ever since, they have made music out a wildly heterogeneous set of objects and sources, including the sound of the pages of bibles turning, water hitting copper plates, liposuction surgery, cameras and VCRs, chin implant surgery, contact microphones on human hair, rat cages, tanks of helium, a cow uterus, human skulls, snails, cigarettes, cards shuffling, laser eye surgery, whoopee cushions, balloons, latex fetish clothing, rhinestones, Polish trains, insects, life support systems, inflatable blankets, rock salt, solid gold coins, the sound of a frozen stream thawing in the sun, a five gallon bucket of oatmeal, snails interrupting the path of a laser and altering the pitch of a light sensitive theremin, a PVC police riot shield, silicon breast implants, and their own washing machine. These raw materials are manipulated into surprisingly accessible forms, and often supplemented by traditional musical instruments played by internationally celebrated guest musicians from their circle of friends and collaborators. The result is a model of electronic composition as a relational network that connects sources and outcomes together; information about the process of creation activates the listening experience, providing the listener with entry points into sometimes densely allusive, baroque recordings that have the direct sensory immediacy of pop music. — Arch Cape is the experimental percussion-based solo project of musician and artist Rachel Blumberg. Rachel first made a name for herself as the drummer in The Decemberists, and later went on to play, record, and tour with many bands such as M.Ward, Bright Eyes, Mirah, Califone, and many more. Her live performances are largely improvisational and set to her animated and collaged films.
