CEAIT Festival: TwoTwenty/OneTen
"An important contender in the international network of multimedia
experimental festivals." Los Angeles Times

The genre-defying festival, TwoTwenty/OneTen, curated by the CalArts Center
for Experiments in Art, Information and Technology, offers three evenings of
new improvised music and multimedia. Opening the festival is Miya Masaoka,
the Alpert Award-winning composer, sound artist and koto player. Masaoka's
work incorporates field recordings and sounds generated by insects, the
physiological processes of plants, and the human brain. This year¹s fest
also brings programs from the Sicilian composer and improviser Domenico
Sciajno, whose practice focuses on generating or modifying sounds through
visual parameters and processes; and Tokyo-based sound artist Toshi
Nakamura, who uses his signature ³no-input mixing board² to develop
controlled improvisations despite the "accidental" nature of his feedback
system. Each artist will perform a solo set, and then a second set with Los
Angeles-based improvisors Hans W. Koch (25 Jan.), David Rothbaum (26 Jan.)
and Lewis Keller and Carole Kim (27 Jan.).

Miya Masaoka/Hans W. Koch
"Even within the wide-open esthetic of West Coast improv, Miya Masaoka is a
maverick." The Vancouver Sun
"Šthose who take the time will marvel at how ingeniously Masaoka can
challenge and change perceptions of what is, and isn't, musicŠ" San Diego
Union Tribune

Domenico Sciajno/David Rothbaum
"It's a good listen because Sciajno knows how to seduce the ear, not
clobbering the listener but welcoming us into his viscous, oozing
soundscapes." Clive Bell, The Wire
