" i am today's lesson plan " 9:00/stereo/color/2007
by Torsten Zenas Burns & Darrin Martin
I am today’s lesson plan is a unique edit of Burn’s and
Martin’s epic LearningStalls: Lesson Plans, which utilizes
video as a trans-disciplinary curriculum exploring
diverse speculative fictions and reimagined educational
practices. Psychic surgery meets physical therapy as matter
and anti-matter merge under the choreographed supervision
of other worldly beings. In the search for new mind/body
experiences, Burns, Martin and other workshop participants
enact paranormal interactions, intersexual dynamics,
pseudo-testing methods, and staged quasi-therapy sessions.

GONZOQUEST - FINAL FRIDAY'S #5 @ PAPER CITY STUDIOS VIDEO:UNDERNEATH THE WORKSHOP-WAYS

Time: May 29, 2009 from 8pm to 11pm
Location: GonzoQuest @ Paper City Studios Holyoke,MA -- 3rd Floor
Organized By: Andy Laties / Info: GonzoQuest. com or 413-230-4913; alaties@aol.com

Event Description:
Dada artist Kurt Schwitters’s classic “Sonata In Primeval Sounds,” also called “Ursonate,” is performed by Ursonate Urchestra, with Lead Parachute and special guest Mitch Ahern, as part of GonzoQuest’s Final Fridays Open Mike Night, on Friday, May 29th at 8pm, Paper City Studios, 80 Race Street, in Holyoke. The open mike, interspersed with “Ursonata” movements, features performance poets, artists with slideshows, and musicians: sign up at 7:30pm.

Published in 1932, Kurt Schwitters’ “Sonata In Primeval Sounds”–also called “Ursonate”–is the granddaddy of sound-art poems: a 45-minute nonsense opus that develops 26 abstract themes in sonata form. Ursonate Urchestra co-founder Andy Laties’ rousing participatory interpretations were honored in Chicago Museum of Contemporary Art’s “Chicago Artists 1945-1995″ retrospective. His partners in Ursonate Urchestra are vocalist Rebecca Migdal and percussionist Eric Blitz; they are joined tonight by experimental sound ensemble Lead Parachute, featuring John Landino on trombone, Glove on guitar and tape measure, and Denis Luzuriaga on synthesizers. Invented-instrument maker Mitch Ahern rounds out the show with his electroluxo-pipophone.
