Cultural Stimuli in NYC
Issue 282: well-aged flavor

This week we celebrate our fifth anniversary: Flavorpill has been spreading the word about the best in cultural stimuli since way back in 2000, with editions in five cities now. It would seem the stars are aligning because we're trainspotting our number all over this issue. Perhaps the biggest event abrew is the launch of the first annual PERFORMA05, a three-week biennial devoted solely to performance art. (Check our overview and highlight of off-the-wall performathon 24-Hour Incidental.) APT throws its own prime-number birthday party with Warp's Luke Vibert, and one-of-a-kind bookshop Printed Matter launches its annual fair at 5pm on Thursday. On November 5th, Luomo (five letters, natch) delivers austere yet sexy microhouse, and YBA upstart Tracey Emin launches a new exhibit. Come ring in a half-decade of flavor with us this First Friday as we team up with the Guggenheim for another night of DJ/art madness, this time featuring tech-house hero Matthew Dear. Count to five, then spread it...

 

flavorpill NYC is an email magazine covering a hand-picked selection of music, art, and cultural events — delivered each Tuesday afternoon.

THEATRE: Dance
The Invisible Man

when: Now through Sat 11.5 (Tue, Thur & Fri: 8pm / Wed & Sat: 3 & 8pm)
where: Baruch Performing Arts Center (55 Lexington Ave, 212.279.4200) map
price: $25-45
links: Event Info

You wouldn't necessarily expect a dance-theatre adaptation of H.G. Wells' sci-fi classic The Invisible Man to present a damning indictment of recent American history. Yet choreographer Doug Varone and the Aquila Theatre Company's darkly provocative exploration of our fears of the unknown chillingly calls to mind images of Abu Ghraib and masked terrorists. Daniel Charon's visceral performance as an invisible stranger, tortured by physical and psychological isolation, is initially counterbalanced by the regimented movements of the medical staff prohibited from entering his room. As, one by one, the nurses encounter the stranger's frighteningly cloaked form, the paranoia gradually escalates to a frenzy. In the context of today's war on invisible enemies, Varone and Aquila brilliantly turn Wells' psycho-thriller into an ominous metaphor for the times. (KI)



ART
Keith Tyson: Geno Pheno

when: Now through Sat 11.12 (Tue-Sat: 10am-6pm)
where: Pace Wildenstein at W 25th St (534 W 25th St, 212.929.7000) map

links: Event Info

Keith Tyson, winner of Britain's Turner Prize in 2002, brings a visually vibrant twist to rule-based conceptual art. In Geno Pheno, Tyson presents sculptures and paintings constructed around rules of genetic causation. The sculptures' bases and the paintings' left panels provide given "genotypes" from which Tyson produces one possible "phenotype" in the form of a completed artwork. In Geno Pheno Sculpture: "Globe of Shit," brown-painted tourist souvenirs pile around an illuminated blue globe, while three iPods in Geno Pheno Sculpture: "Synaesthetic Turbine" create an explosive column of colorful forms. Part critical, part philosophical, part scientific, this process-oriented work radically refuses formal or conceptual simplification. (LK)

The Go! Team w/ Airborn Audio and the Grates

where: Webster Hall (125 E 11th St, 212.353.1600) map
price: $18
links: Event Info | The Go! Team | Airborn Audio

When the Avalanches finally release their next masterpiece, they'll find they've been beaten to the punch by the sampladelic imps of the Go! Team. The Brighton, UK outfit captured a similarly madcap and care-free vibe with the playful pastiche of their debut, Thunder, Lightning, Strike. There's less disco in this kitchen sink, but ultimately more songcraft, which is sure to translate to broader appeal now that Thunder has finally seen an American release. What you want — be it peppy sing-alongs, spazz rapping, sweet-tooth harmonies, or chase-scene horn hooks — baby, they got it. (TW)

  Pep us up with a Flavorpill-related cheer. The most galvanizing response wins a pair of tickets to this show.

FESTIVAL
PERFORMA05: The First Biennial of New Visual Art Performance in New York City

when: Thur 11.3 - Mon 11.21 (schedule)
where: Various locations (212.533.5720)
price: Various
links: Event Info

New York's first performance art biennial comes to town with a wide range of events and commissions covering the whole city. Organizer RoseLee Goldberg has strung together an eclectic mix of venues, stretching from Chelsea performing arts center the Kitchen to LES non-profit Participant Inc, Chinatown's Art in General, Jack the Pelican in Williamsburg, and the Studio Museum in Harlem. Meanwhile, Albanian-Kosovan artist Sislej Xhafa takes to the streets with a truckload of lawyers, and art takes to the airwaves on PERFORMA RADIO. Tonight, Danish artist Jesper Just's sumptuous, music-driven vision gets things started, pitting a solo opera singer against the Finnish Screaming Men's Choir. Stay tuned for continuing Flavorpill coverage. (AM)

Note: Jesper Just's True Love is Yet to Come continues with nightly performances through Sun 11.6, and concludes with a final performance Tue 11.8 (8pm).

  What would you do (artistically, that is) with a truck full of lawyers? Our favorite response of 50 words or less wins a pair of tickets to a PERFORMA05 event.



FILM
Margaret Mead Film & Video Festival

when: Thur 11. 3 - Sun 11.6 / Sat 11.12 & Sun 11.13
where: American Museum of Natural History (Central Park W at 79th St, 212.769.5200) map
price: $9
links: Event Info

The annual Margaret Mead Film & Video Festival returns to present its 29th sampling of international short and feature-length ethnographic documentaries. Named for the pioneering cultural anthropologist who believed film was the best tool for studying other cultures, the festival offers a window into veiled worlds; this year's offerings examine women's reproductive rights in Romania, bride kidnapping in Kyrgyzstan, domestic violence in Cameroon, and the trials and tribulations associated with divorce in Israel. For those who dig post-screening dialogue, most showings have a filmmaker on hand to field questions. (MB)

  Mead's research of which tribe fueled the women's lib movement, and why? The fourth through sixth correct responses each win a pair of tickets to one of these screeenings.



FAIR
Printed Matter's Editions/Artists' Books Fair

when: Thur 11.3 - Sun 11.6 (Thur: 5-8pm / Fri & Sat: 11am-7pm / Sun: 11am-4pm)
where: Starrett-Lehigh Building (601 W 26th St, 14th Fl, 212.925.0325) map
price: Thur: $40 / Fri-Sun: Free
links: Event Info

A yearly carnival of art collectibles, the Editions/Artists' Books Fair pleases serious print connoisseurs, artistically minded pack rats, and curious bookworms alike, with participating printshops and galleries displaying everything from Kiki Smith bronze skull sculptures to Marcel Dzama action figures. John Bock's patterned knit underwear filled with bunny droppings reveals a playful side to Parkett Edition's constellation of contemporary superstars. Penny-pinchers can take home Guggenheim Fellow Joanne Greenbaum's signed and numbered silkscreen cards from the Lower East Side Printshop, or something from Specific Object's treasure chest of cult-status ephemera, including Art-Rite zines. As always, an opening night benefit for nonprofit Printed Matter promises limited-edition goodies for people with a little extra cash to spare. (CEK)

  Name at least four of the artists featured in the first edition of Printed Matter. The first correct response wins a pair of tickets to the reception.



THEATRE: Multimedia
...She Said

when: Thur 11.3 - Sun 11.13 (Wed-Fri: 8:30pm / Sat & Sun: 5:30 & 8:30pm)
where: Brooklyn Lyceum (227 4th Ave, Bklyn, 866.469.2687) map
price: $20
links: Event Info

The creative force of WaxFactory returns to New York to further bend the theatrical genre with another seductive production fusing performance, live-video projections, animation, electronic sound installations, and digitally enhanced costumes. Loosely based on Marguerite Duras' novel, Destroy, She Said, characters slip between reality and imagination as unconventionally as text and movement blend, all within the mesmerizing confines of a structure reminiscent of a scientific laboratory or storefront window. WaxFactory's latest experimental piece promises a dazzling array of visual and mental stimuli. (SR)

Note: ...She Said is part of the Act French festival. No performances on Mon 11.7 and Tue 11.8.

  What was the last thing "she" said to you, and why was it important? The four most intriguing responses of 50 words or less each win a pair of tickets to a performance of ...She Said.

The Guggenheim and Flavorpill present First Fridays feat. Matthew Dear w/ Ryan Elliott

when: Fri 11.4 (9pm-1am)
where: Guggenheim Museum (1071 5th Ave, 212.423.3500) map
price: $15
links: Event Info | Matthew Dear | Ryan Elliott

For round two of Flavorpill's monthly First Fridays at the Guggenheim, we beef up the beats with the one-two punch of Ghostly/Spectral's Matthew Dear and Ryan Elliott. Detroit denizen Dear sheds his current sex-crazed Audion moniker for a deft set of the teutonic-tinged, pixilated pop, and zig-zagging zipper-funk that dominated his accolade-garnering 2003 release Leave Luck to Heaven, while fellow south Michigan boyo Elliott — the mixmaster behind stunning label-sampler Spectral Sound, Vol. 1 — purveys a warm flow of Motor City's finest robo-soul bass lines. So, perk your ears while absorbing 800 breathtaking years of art in the Russia! exhibit, before uncoiling on the atrium's dance floor. (JJ)

PERFORMANCE
24-Hour Incidental

when: Sat 11.5 - Sun 11.6 (Continuously from Sat: 12pm - Sun: 12pm)
where: Swiss Institute (495 Broadway, 3rd Fl, 212.925.2035) map
price:
links: Event Info

If time could be reconfigured into the third dimension, the 24 hours unfolding at the Swiss Institute would resemble something like a steel cage deathmatch. Collaborating with PERFORMA05, multinational artist Jordan Wolfson curates a bold range of performances that coexist together — or face off. Carsten Höller's The Pinocchio Effect, which stretches the limits of believability, occupies the same space as Fluxus pioneer Yoko Ono's well-documented YES Painting and John Armleder's quiet Coffee Break. Audience participation fluctuates as well: Karl Holmqvist uses the Magnetic Fields to engage viewers with an intimate reading of their favorite from 69 Love Songs, while conceptual bad boy Piero Golia turns a cold shoulder, sleeping through the whole affair. (JG)



ART: Opening
Tracey Emin: I Can Feel Your Smile

when: Sat 11.5 (6-8pm)
where: Lehmann Maupin (540 W 26th St, 212.255.2923) map
price:
links: Event Info | Tracey Emin

Known for outlandish exposés of her sleeping habits — previously exhibiting both the bed of her steamy encounters and the names of all her partners embroidered on a camping tent — young British artist Tracey Emin is still taking inspiration from her nocturnal adventures, this time from an encouraging former professor appearing in a dream. She's constructed a 12-foot, towering tribute from salvaged wood and shafts of white neon surrounded in the gallery by neon text statements, short films, drawings, and paintings. Her colorless works signal a new direction, but it's not virgin naïveté that led the artist to bleach her palette — she simply likes the way things look in white. (JK)

Note: I Can Feel Your Smile continues through Sat 12.17 (Tue-Sat: 10am-6pm).



MUSIC: Microhouse
Luomo

when: Sat 11.5 (10pm)
where: Rothko (116 Suffolk St, 212.475.7088) map
price: $14
links: Event Info | Luomo/Vladislav Delay

Five years ago, as lifeless boutique hotel compilations threatened to suffocate lounge-oriented electronica, free-jazz drummer and IDM-experimentalist Sasu Ripatti reinstated techy dance music as the soundtrack to which the impossibly sexy pout their lips, sip their cocktails, and sway their hips. Under his Luomo guise, Ripatti's seminal Vocal City helped spawn the term microhouse, a sound whose clicks 'n cuts simultaneously trimmed the flab off house and polished techno's rough textures to a sleek, shimmering sheen. Following his sophomore effort, The Present Lover, the Finn even had indie rockers out under the disco ball. Tonight, Ripatti performs live, programming a skeletal set of airy vocals, lustful exhalations, and sensually saturated beats. (JJ)

Note: Ripatti performs his avant-leaning ambient dub material under his Vladislav Delay moniker at Rothko on Mon 11.7 (9pm).

  Vocal City was originally released as a series of EPs, under which of Ripatti's alter egos? The second and third correct responses each win a pair of tickets to the show.

price: $23 / $22.50 advance
links: Event Info | Spoon | American Music Club | Mary Timony

Known for crafting impeccable pop songs, Spoon have achieved impressive recognition outside the indie world, and while it stings the die-hard fan to hear them on an OC soundtrack, one can't fault newbies for taking notice. This year's Gimme Fiction may have less immediately compelling melodies, but it rewards listeners who enjoy peeling back an album's layers. A nicely varied lineup tonight includes the criminally underrated, decades-old American Music Club, who explore traditional folk music through reverb and melancholy, and ex-Helium guitarist Mary Timony, whose early twee efforts lacked the complexity of her current take on noisy ethereality.

With her blog moorishgirl.com and occasional contributions to publications like The Nation and the Los Angeles Times, Laila Lalami chronicles the literary scene, life in Portland, news from Morocco (her native country), and the Muslim experience with characteristic wit, awareness, and occasional vitriol. Currently, she's touring in support of her recently published debut novel, Hope and Other Dangerous Pursuits, which details the motivations and actions of four Moroccans who flee their country on an inflatable boat headed for Spain. Though they all share a common destination, the four companions have drastically different reasons for their dangerous emigration. (JK)

THEATRE
See What I Wanna See

when: Now through Sat 12.4 (schedule)
where: The Public Theater (425 Lafayette St, 212.539.8500) map
price: $60
links: Event Info

Whether it's evidence of the postmodern era of musical theatre, or a mere product of our ADD-minded pop culture, See What I Wanna See is a short format fan's answer to lengthy plays and stretched plots. Musical wunderkind Michael John LaChiusa's multifaceted saga of redemption, faith, and hope is partly inspired by the short stories of poet Ryunosuke Akutagawa (which also provided director Akira Kurosawa with fodder for his masterpiece Rashomon). The playlet involving a murder mystery set in Central Park provides most of the evening's catchy tunes, while a post-9/11 miracle hoax serves as the emotional anchor for the bunch. Wicked witch Idina Menzel lands back downtown to play against type. (SP)



ART
Raymond Pettibon

when: Now through Sun 2.19.06 (Wed-Thur: 11am-6pm / Fri: 1-9pm / Sat-Sun: 11am-6pm)
where: Whitney Museum of American Art (945 Madison Ave, 212.570.3676) map
price: $12
links: Event Info

Surfboard sage Raymond Pettibon continues his prodigious output of pen-and-ink drawings, still riding the wave of critical attention from his 2004 Whitney Biennial Bucksbaum Award. Resembling cells culled from existentialist comic books, Pettibon's drawings hang tacked-up in clusters of pulp characters and dreamlike landscapes. Feathery brushstrokes and bleeding washes in gemstone and mineral hues render floating signifiers of naked ladies, confused penguins, soaring cathedrals, and the Earth seen from above. With an eye towards the topical, pensive prose weaves throughout the drawings, elevating the meat-and-potatoes materiality of Pettibon's graphic practice, while an adventurous animation provides a savory visual treat. (CEK)

Note: Pettibon also has a new installation at MoMA as part of the year-long exhibition, Drawing from the MoMA: 1975-2005, running through Mon 1.9.06.

  Which early-20th-century surf pioneer was responsible for adding fins to surfboards? The sixth and seventh correct responses each win a pair of tickets to this exhibition.

  INSIDE MUSIC'S BLACK BOX: Pandora  

You're a textbook music maven. An expert at "spot the influence," you're constantly quipping, "if you like [semi-known band], you'd really like [obscure band]," and your blank CDs fly off the spindle during mix-making (read: dating) season. One problem: it's lonely at the top. Luckily for you, the Music Genome Project has designed Pandora, the music geek's best online friend. Plug a favorite artist or song title into the site's Flash interface, and Pandora combs through over 300,000 songs from 10,000 different artists of varying levels of popularity, and from several genres (better luck next time, world-beat and classical), to construct a startlingly consistent "station" based on your artist or song parameters. Submit Animal Collective, Pandora gives you Nedelle; enter Ui, and listen to tracks from the Octopus Project. And at $3 a month, with a ten-hour free trial, Pandora's cheaper — not to mention significantly less intimidating — than a subway round-trip to Other Music. (TG)




 


  CD REVIEW: Who Made Who, Who Made Who  

Gomma
Released October 2005
$14.99 (Amazon)

While recent takes on Benny Benassi's campy electro hit "Satisfaction" and Mr. Oizo's lovable/goofy "Flat Beat" approach novelty, Danish trio Who Made Who's debut proves their talent runs deeper than cheeky party covers. On their self-titled album, melodic punk-funk and disco are played live in the style of !!!, with the emphasis on tight pop arrangements rather than stoned-out jams. Given the AC/DC-inspired name, it seems fitting that musical points of reference are unabashedly deliberate: album opener "Roses" nods to Liquid Liquid with an oscillating bass line and intricate percussion, while "Johnny Lucky" appropriates the art-school swagger of the Talking Heads and stripped-down funk of ESG. "Space for Rent" breaks out of the traditional mold, mounting an Old-West style bass line over a modified schaffel beat with filtered, falsetto vocals, further solidifying Who Made Who as the thinking man's party band. (CJN)


 


  STREAMS: Futureboogie  

With every passing day, the web fills with more and more quality podcasts for all tastes. Bristol-based Futureboogie holds things down for the jazz, breaks, and hip-hop heads with fresh content, including live and archived sets, plus interviews with the likes of Domu, Recloose, Peter Kruder, and Jazzanova. Here, check out a cross-section of its streams (also available by podcast). Influential selector from those halcyon Hacienda days Greg Wilson spins a circa-1983 mix documenting the precursors to various forms of electronic dance music, while Bristol's own Tim Spencer drops jazz, R&B, and soul. Finally, Turntable Lab's own Gypsy Bogdan compiles a playlist including some Brazilian cuts plus new music from Scott Herren's Piano Overlord project and Quasimoto. (CJN)
