GREAT NEWS! The EMA “TAPE” tape is available now from Night People Records. This is my take on improvised music, but it ends up sounding kind of like a sweet girl version of Niandra Lades and Usually Just a T-shirt, which is probably one of my favorite albums EVER. It’s intimate and I think really beautiful. In conjunction with the actual tape release, I am doing an interweb collaborative visual art project, which you can find out about here, along with a short essay about the idea of TAPE. Please Contribute!

CEZANNO

In other news, while we are sad about our East Coast sister school ParisLondonWestNile closing its doors, productions over in West Oakland’s EAST NILE have been kickin, and our focus has been on video. Scroll up to see a quick clip from a video I’m making for a new solo song called “California (Boys)”. It involves UFOs, skaters, reptilians and hula-hooping, (naturally.) I’m still collecting footage, so if you’ve got some good UFO footage, real or fake, send it on over to me: myrobobedroom AT gmail DOT com.
Also, our resident metaphysic Severiano Martinez has been working on the upcoming Sejayno Opera : “Cezzano“, that will be performed this month at the Baltimore Art Museum. Sejayno is a bi-coastal art collective featuring Severiano Martinez, analog synth-master Peter B. and C18 wanderer Carson Garhart. More information can be found here and here.

I don’t want to give away too much behind-the-scenes magic, but here are some shots of me filming Seve in character…

AND I DON’T PRACTICE SANTERIA

I know this is last minute but I am performing tomorrow in the city at VIRACOCHA, for the debut of the NEW SENSATIONALISTS poetry movement. The party takes place in the basement which apparently used to be used for Santeria rituals. Which probably means animal sacrifice, at least. Spooky shit! For the occasion I’m working on a group exorcism involving paper airplanes. We’ll see how that flies (wink).
NEW SENSATIONALISTS : FRIDAY MAY 7th
Artists in order of appearance:
Sara Beckley
Nora Toomey
Mark Matos
Wax Sax
Erika M. Anderson
James Marchetti
Alexander Friend/ David Petrelli
@ VIRACOCHA — 21st and Valencia 8pm — donation based bar!
