Cultural Stimuli in NYC
Issue 273: well-mannered flavor
Though we might try to raise our sons and daughters to be auteurs and academics, schooling them in punctuation and documenting precious moments along the way, the mechanics of etiquette have a limited amount of efficacy in the real world. This point is underlined by a proliferation of Miss Manners outlaws, from the hooligans at How to Kick People to a master of ambiguity, a hacker, a pairing of confessional spazz rockers, and a comedy troupe of SNL-style goofballs. Of course, that doesn't mean we shouldn't be sociable — we just advise (in the spirit of Voltaire) that you tend your own garden, just in case. Smile at your neighbor, and spread it...

Ultramagnetic MCs feat. Kool Keith w/ Ice-T
|
|
De-funked since '93, the Ultramagnetic MCs were minor players in Bronx hip-hop's second wave (i.e., when white folks tuned in), the quirky younger brothers of legends Public Enemy and Run DMC, and creators of Critical Beatdown, one of the greatest hip-hop debuts ever — hyperbole this ain't. Unfortunately, the UMCs currently have more notoriety as the springboard for one Kool Keith (aka Doctor Octagon), an inconsistent but occasionally compelling rapper fetishized for his battles with mental illness (see also: Wesley Willis and, arguably, ODB). This comeback includes support from Ice-T, Keith's onetime Analog Brother. (YS)

The Constant Gardener
|
|
Teeming with life, color, and indignation, The Constant Gardener is a heady achievement. Ralph Fiennes stars as a doggedly uncontroversial British diplomat in Kenya, who struggles to unravel the mysterious murder of his pregnant wife (Rachel Weisz), a brash social activist. Through his search, Fiennes stumbles upon both the real nature of their relationship and the data his wife had been compiling against a pharmaceutical company testing a fatal tuberculosis remedy on Africans. Perhaps only Brazilian director Fernando Meirelles (City of God) could make such good use of Fiennes' diffidence and Weisz's humorless passion; certainly only he could tease a tale of wild postcolonial class-consciousness out of a script based on, of all things, a John le Carré novel.

Often called the "father of color photography," William Eggleston was also known for his Faulknerian ability to capture the photogenically tragic moments of the American South. Gifted with one-shot luck, Eggleston developed a body of work that depicted the everyday: piles of shoes under a bed, a shopping center, a housewife done up in Sunday finery. This documentary, directed by Michael Almereyda, showcases many of his best works, but also catches the artist during rare, unguarded moments, including footage from a visit to Eggleston's hometown of Memphis as part of a commission for Gus Van Sant, and selections from his family photo archive. Among the thousands of his exposures, this could possibly be the most revealing. (JK)
Note: Almereyda discusses the film at tonight's 6:30 and 8:20pm screenings.

Anna Craycroft and Felicia Ballos: The Mechanics of Etiquette
|
|
Anna Craycroft's busy summer has included P.S.1's Greater New York and LMCC's outdoor arts project Set and Drift on Governors Island. Now, she teams with choreographer Felicia Ballos to kick off the Swiss Institute's new series of dance and performance commissions. The Mechanics of Etiquette is a dance investigation of 18th- and 19th-century manners manuals. Taking inspiration from the physical and psychological inhibitions imposed by etiquette, the piece incorporates minimal, atmospheric stage design and Craycroft's fractured period costumes, with Ballos' dancers navigating four instructional scenarios. Noah Sheldon and David Griffin's live musical accompaniment spasms between processional melody and contemporary dissonance. (AM)

While his compatriots in Daft Punk first grabbed headlines with their neo-disco sensibilities, the Hacker (aka Michel Amato) remained in relative obscurity, voraciously soaking up his native Grenoble's rave scene and honing his production skills in both hardcore and classic Detroit styles. However, his collaboration with Miss Kittin on 1997's cheeky "Frank Sinatra" blew up in 2001 and went on to make Amato's name synonymous with the coming electroclash fad. That retro-obsessed sound's high profile may have been short-lived, but Amato's signature rubbery beats, new-wave handclaps, dark electro-pop, and saw-tooth techno have thankfully outlived the genre they helped spawn. Joining him tonight after a monthlong hiatus, Robots duo Nick AC and Dennis Rogers resume warm-up duties behind the decks. (JJ)

|
|
Though occasionally dismissed as mildly baroque and pretentious, the classic Nicholas Roeg art films of the '70s and '80s are actually thought-provoking gems that impale the viewer with cryptic depictions of a world out of sorts with itself. In Don't Look Now (1973), the British auteur plunges us into the fragile psyches of characters portrayed by Donald Sutherland and Julie Christie, the desolate sheen of a wintry-looking Venice, and the elusive transgressions of the supernatural. 1980's Bad Timing: A Sensual Obsession, meanwhile, ostensibly analyzes irrational desires, while never losing sight of the shadowy mazes of modern identity. Prepare for flashbacks, rapid intercutting, and that unsettling feeling that accompanies an experience that irrevocably alters your perceptions. (DI)

Joining the ranks of obscure theatre genres, "anime dance theater" is a cross-category, Japanimation-inspired hybrid that blends together dance and mime. Conceived by Kiyoko Kashiwagi, a New York-based dancer/choreographer with a soft spot for anime, X Kills Y and Vice Versa features video images by seasoned filmmaker Kazuhiro Soda, a man with multiple film-festival nominations in his bag. The plotline irreverently mingles elements of Romeo and Juliet and Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde, but it's the mishmash of choreographed live action sequences and cartoonish sensibility that make this spectacle stand out.

New Yorkers generally celebrate Brazil's Independence Day on the first Sunday in September, but the American Museum of the Moving Image gets the party started early this year with tonight's screening of Favela Rising — a new documentary about reggae revolutionary Anderson Sa — accompanied by a courtyard party with food and music from Brazilian locals. Elsewhere, the ALMA crew throws down at the Sullivan Room until the wee hours with DJs True, Miller Cruz, and Cyro Baptista, plus live percussion and capoeira; and Monkeytown (freshly reopened) launches a multi-week program of new video works exploring Brazil's current social fabric and tropical legacy, and screens the excellent, if harrowing, Bus 174, while Anthology Film Archives hosts the New York Brazilian Film Festival, which kicks off tomorrow.

When Jamie Stewart rocks the autoharp, he rocks the autoharp right: legs splayed, shifting back and forth on the balls of his feet, strumming/attacking the old-timey instrument as if he were raking the spine of the lover who wronged him. Stewart, the troubled soul behind Xiu Xiu, uses his electro-noise-gamelan compositions as a means of exorcizing his demons' demons, evoking an embarrassing, sloppy-drunk Morrissey as he yowls the skin-crawling one-liners from his new album, La Foret. Openers and Absolutely Kosher labelmates Frog Eyes can't quite contain themselves either — singer/songwriter Carey Mercer would make a fine carnival barker, if he weren't such a spazz. (TG)

It may not seem like the most politically correct way to alleviate poverty and support third-world economies, but author Ian Williams suggests that buying and consuming rum can get your dollars into the right hands. Way back when America waged war for its independence, tea was considered the commodity that tipped the proverbial boat; similarly, prohibition-era "pirates" had to sneak the contraband rum needed to restock New York City's speakeasies past the Coast Guard stationed on Governors Island. Williams discusses this and other schema-altering theories while signing his new book, Rum: A Social and Sociable History of the Real Spirit of 1776, on the historic island itself. (NR)

Mixtures of the effervescent and unexpected, Alexander Mackendrick's
comedies are like the best of summer cocktails — heady pleasures containing just a thimbleful of satan. Born in Boston, but
raised in Scotland, Mackendrick directed some of the darkly brilliant
best to come from Britain's famed Ealing Studios in the 1950s.
Classics such as The Man in the White Suit and The
Ladykillers (1955) feature the career pinnacles of Alec Guinness and Peter Sellers, while also serving as ominous warnings against willful
upstarts who deviate from accepted social custom. Ruled by the
persnickety and the naysaying, the realm of Mackendrick is one in
which the ambitious individual can survive — but just barely. (GL)

In the past, these readings have been transformed into unconventional performances — reading atop a ladder in the nude, or between the intervals of a flashing red light. Included in tonight's program is Dick Fontaine's 1967 film Sound, wherein Cage and David Tudor rehearse a piece for a musical bicycle, with interludes in echo and anechoic chambers so conducive to testing out silence that Cage claimed he could hear his "nervous system in operation" and his "blood in circulation."

Brian Belott archives the fragmented hyperreality of peachy sunsets, sandy beaches, and long-gone birthday cakes in found photographs, and Jean Baudrillard's shadow looms large over the cold, steel-grated geometry of shuttered stores in Walead Beshty's Dead Mall series. Finally, Michael Smith's photographic comic strip features his persona drifting through the WTC's underground shopping arcade, eerily hearkening to a day whose aftershocks rippled through "the homeland."

Tam Ochiai recently asked local children to cover the Team Gallery walls with delicate figures of female pop icons, random scribbles, and dainty flowers — all copied from his own original drawings. A remarkably clever commentary on notions of authorship and artistic determination, the installation reminds us that the creative process has no age limitations. Strewn over tables and in a back room, upon cursory inspection, Ochiai's drawings on paper are indistinguishable from those of the kids; a closer look, however, reveals sad, diaphanous figures and mysterious waifs reminiscent of French New Wave starlets, evoking with melancholy sophistication the distance between innocence and experience.

Less structured than a play and more glued together than sketch comedy, Sides: The Fear is Real... plays like a shrewdly written Saturday Night Live, or a sharply directed Upright Citizens Brigade — or, for that matter, a flawlessly acted Mad TV. The all-Asian-American cast drew from their own personal experiences in the ruthlessly competitive world of casting to create a script that finds humor in everything that can possibly go wrong in an audition. Stereotypical casting demands are turned into hilarious gags, stage fright is fodder for physical comedy, and success-hungry actors are developed into memorable characters — making the audition process seem more exhilarating than most of the plays out there.

Whether you follow the example of Jesus, Muhammad, Buddha, or none of the above, the worthiness of Mercy Ships' mission is undeniable. Since 1978, the Mercy Ships have been mooring in developing nations and performing essential surgeries that vastly improve quality of life for millions of people who couldn't otherwise afford them. For sustainability, the organization also trains healthcare workers and contributes to construction and agricultural projects, bringing to the people basics as simple as potable water. Photographer Scott Harrison has documented Mercy Ships' work with the impoverished in Liberia in a moving series of photographs and video installations that just opened at the Metropolitan Pavilion. Take a look and, if you're inspired, attend the gala fundraiser on Wed 9.7. (AV)

CD REVIEW: Black Rebel Motorcycle Club, Howl |
|
|
RCA
Released August 2005
$10.99 (Amazon)
|
Howl may be a quieter album than Black Rebel Motorcycle Club's previous two releases, but it's far from slight. Built around acoustic instrumentation, the disc swaps out the band's trademark guitar squall for piano and harmonica, gospel and Americana, with a minimal use of drums due to both the nature of the songs, and to the fact that drummer Nick Jago was temporarily kicked out of the band during the recording. Echoing everything from Bob Dylan to O Brother, Where Art Thou?, it's a suitably dark record where a barroom stomper ("Ain't No Easy Way") can sit side-by-side with a heartfelt ballad ("Promise"), a head-bobbing acoustic rocker ("Weight of the World"), and a looming, psychedelic slow-burner ("The Line"). It doesn't so much explore co-frontmen Peter Hayes and Robert Been's roots as tear them from the ground, squeezing out every precious drop of life they have to offer. (DL)

Sam Valenti founded Ann Arbor, Michigan-based Ghostly International to fill a void in American imprints releasing quality electronic music. Since its first release (a split Matthew Dear/Disco D 12-inch), Ghostly has expanded in scope, branching off with its more dance floor-minded spinoff label, Spectral. Sounds have ranged from the shoegaze-inspired pop of Dykehouse and the subtle headphone textures of Kiln to the full-on industrial bombast of Kill Memory Crash. The label also has a strong visual identity, employing several talented graphic designers and artists — including Michael Segal, who designed the artwork for the Idol Tryouts compilation and Midwest Product.
