Cultural Stimuli in NYC
Issue 320: priceless flavor
Summer in the city can be rough for the budget-conscious — what with AC-amped energy bills and the inevitable cost of indulging in daytrips to less vertical environs. Fortunately, it won't be hard to keep your wallet safely in your pocket this week with all the high-quality, free culture on tap. Witness conscious hip-hop from North Cacalaca's Little Brother; brazen British 'tude from little Lady Sovereign; blistering rawk from the Hold Steady; and a new film and music series, SummerScreen, at McCarren Park Pool. And if you can make it out of the city, Spectral Garden brings futurism to the woods of Acra, NY, for nary a penny. Free-ness makes the good times twice as nice, so choose your own adventure and spread it.

Built for the tight, speedy streets of Europe, the original 1975 Volkswagen Rabbit looked, well, a little foreign on American roads. It didn't take long though for city-dwellers to discover the advantages of driving a smaller, more nimble, more fuel-efficient, more versatile car. Like the original, the all-new VW Rabbit is designed with metropolitan motorways in mind. Meet the reborn Rabbit. |

Avant music and classic flicks might seem an odd pairing, but that's just part of what makes summer's new favorite venue, McCarren Park Pool, so appealing. L magazine kicks off their weekly film night — scheduled through August — with Spike Lee's ode to the concrete jungle, Do the Right Thing (1989), preceded by live hip-hop from the Cold Hands Collective and a koto/laser show from sound artist Miya Masaoka. Subsequent SummerScreen parties pair screenings of Frank and Eleanor Perry's 1968 adaptation of John Cheever's The Swimmer with guitar slapper Kaki King, and a special Saturday screening of the quintessential NYC graf-scene doc Style Wars (1983) with "an aquatic multimedia happening" curated by DJ Spooky.

The New York Video Fest celebrates its 15th year showcasing the usual eclectic assortment of videos and related media, navigating between the narrative, technical, performative, and just plain weird. There's plenty to turn on the media nerd in you (the Please Turn on Your Cell Phone performance) and tickle your inner art snob (the Magic Bus). You can even invite your stuffy roommate, the Cinema Studies major at that certain downtown school, to come and see the Mind/Body program for proof that some well-established avant-gardists, who grew up strictly on celluloid no less, have come to embrace the new media.

Tonight, three genre-busting musical friends perform a benefit concert for
the Ali Forney Center, which has provided shelter, medical and mental
health care, HIV testing, and other emergency services to homeless LGBT
youth since 2002. Cabaret/lounge balladeer Antony headlines, with support

When Danish art-rockers Mew played the Mercury Lounge in 2003,
Michael Stipe watched intently from the back of the room. Two
years later, the band was opening for R.E.M. on a European tour.
You can't blame the man for being impressed: equal parts melody,
bombast, and ethereality, the quartet's music is supplemented
onstage by the surreal animations created by its mad genius of a
frontman, Jonas Bjerre. That Mew's epic 2003 album
Frengers never saw a US release was criminal; this
month's offering of its follow-up, And the Glass Handed
Kites, is the retribution. Tonight's headlining show at Hiro announces the group's return to the States, before an upcoming tour with Bloc Party. (DL)

Robots presents Dominik Eulberg w/ Ada
|
|
According to Teutonic wunderkind Dominik Eulberg, minimal
techno's for the birds. While many of his compatriots derive
influence for their austere productions from the post-war
architecture of Berlin and Cologne, Eulberg, an avid
ornithologist and part-time park ranger, prefers combing the
verdant forests of his native Westerwald, Germany, in search of
aural inspiration. Samples of flora and fauna — the
namesake of his lauded full-length debut — chirp and
crackle through the melodic canopies of his layered tracks,
while his DJ sets suggest a deep-wooded wildness not often
associated with techno's distinctly urban image. (JJ)
Note: Dark-pop princess Ada opens with a dance-inducing live set of baroque keys and synth-saturated hooks.

did he live? The first correct response wins a pair of tickets

Brothers of the Head
|
|
Clever directors Keith Fulton and Lou Pepe redeemed the flagging
categories of documentaries and metamovies by launching perhaps
the first metamovie documentary ever, Lost in La Mancha
(2002). Their latest, a mockumentary music biopic, again
sidesteps the pitfalls associated with each respective genre
(glibness and self-indulgence) by mining a hot-breathed,
damp-browed melancholy. A whirling dervish of a film,
Brothers of the Head lays out a Ripley's Believe It or
Not premise — the ill-fated love affairs of incestuous
conjoined British twins who front a punk-rock band — and
then whittles it down to the two most basic, and conflicting, of
human hungers: the desire for intimacy and the desire for
privacy. (LR)
Lost in La Mancha documents the "un-making" of a Don Quixote adaptation that was halted after how much
time in production? The second and third correct

Even if you saw BAM's recent production of Oscar Wilde's The
Importance of Being Earnest, there are two good reasons to
see it again: a) Michael Gardner's adaptation brings a
side-splitting zaniness to the play via the strangely fitting
incorporation of martial arts interludes, and b) because it's
one of the best theatrical comedies ever written, still fresh as
a dandy over 100 years later. Set in the 1890s, this ensemble
piece revolves around two Englishmen with alter egos that are employed to
conduct covert business and/or excuse themselves from unwanted
affairs. But here, Gardner pumps up the comedy of manners with
high-kicking hijinks as conflicts bubble over. The final selling point? One
character is played by a weeble-wobble. (JKG)
Note: There are five additional performances through Sat 8.26. See Event Info link for a full schedule.

Night Time feat. the Long Blondes
|
|
Although categorized as new-wave/post-punk revivalists, the Sheffield, UK-based
Long Blondes' differ their delivery from song to song — sometimes
mimicking the uninhibited punk exuberance of the Slits, and other times
sounding as sweet as anything Phil Spector ever produced. Sexpot lead singer Kate Jackson has arguably one of the best voices in rock, though most of her unapologetically girly, femme fatale lyrics actually come from male bandmate Dorian Cox. The Blondes light up Night Time tonight with residents Dave
P and Tim Sweeney. (RBD)

free103point9 presents Spectral Garden feat. Matthew Burtner, Nicolas Collins, and Scanner
|

The free103point9 Wave Farm is a touchy-feely place, but it can
be a damn good break to take from NYC's pavement-boiling summer
malaise (and even the saltiest city crank would be hard-pressed
to resist their well-strung hammocks). As a part of their summer
event series, the nonprofit arts organization invites three
sound artists to put their grant money where their MIDI
controllers are for an afternoon in the meadow, testing out big
words and vague phrases like "ecoacoustics" and "the
experimental terrain between sound, space, image, and form."
Matthew Burtner's noise-based Studies for Radio
Transceiver explores the nature of radio, while Nicolas
Collins and the British sound artist Scanner work with cell
phone conversations and broken broadcasts — appropriately,

If New York is foaming at the mouth for disco, we largely have Darshan
Jesrani and Citizen Kane to thank. Jesrani is half of revivalists Metro

as A1 Records' disco buyer years before the recent obsession with the Italo
sound hit our shores. These experts team up tonight, connecting the dots
from Larry Levan to modern-day, nu-disco pioneers like Jesse Rose and In
Flagranti, and schooling all the late-comers who've been rushing to add
DeLite and Salsoul records to their crates. (JC)

JellyNYC presents Pool Parties feat. Of Montreal w/ Enon, Irving, and Asobi Seksu
|
|
Most nugazer acts take one of two approaches: they either go aggressive, piling
tons of noisy layers à la Serena Maneesh, or strip down the guitars and
momentum for a stab at Sigur Rós' dreamy atmosphere. Succeeding by avoiding
such narrow conceits, the songs on Asobi Seksu's latest, Citrus, are
first and foremost grounded in melody. There's lots of intoxicating
pummel-and-drift, but the well-balanced songwriting and endearing
English/Japanese vocals from frontwoman Tuki keep things interesting
throughout. Despite the wide recent acclaim, the New York band is just
opening today's free show, which hits you with four flavors of indie rock:
LA's summery collective Irving, the slightly spastic local unit Enon, and
art-pop eccentrics Of Montreal, headlining. (JPC)

SummerStage presents Lady Sovereign w/ Pete Rock, Jean Grae, and DJ Rekha
|

To say that Lady Sovereign has ridden the coattails of recent UK rap
invaders Dizzee Rascal, the Streets, and M.I.A. doesn't do her justice. While
she, too, display their amped-up energy, nimble wordplay, and pop
charisma, the fearless rude-girl has a unique, playfully combative
style all her own. The pint-sized 20-year-old prepares to stage her own
attack on America in October with her first full-length, Public
Warning — on Def Jam, after suitably impressing Jay-Z — but
tonight Sov headlines a powerful female lineup with MC Jean Grae and
Bollywood 'n bhangra-banging DJ Rekha, while legendary producer/DJ Pete
Rock plays odd man out. (JRC)

Jessica Ciocci's awkwardly titled P.E.A.C.E. exhibits
products of the recklessly jubilant creative energy expected of
her Paper Rad affiliation: large and small paintings on paper
and found materials (obsessively representing a flattened
teenage Miss Piggy type), yarn and thread work, collage,
photography, two stuttering video loops, and even a small tent
(or is it a fort?) fill the gallery's walls and floors. Of
particular interest, however, is how Ciocci
articulates, with perhaps even more precision than previous
Paper Rad efforts, her own points of social engagement in the
language of accelerating cultural and technological
obsolescence. Are 35mm point-and-shoot photos and low-res
Internet video enough to make you miss the '90s? (BB)

It wouldn't be totally fallacious to say that Tomas Saraceno's
head is in the clouds. The Argentinean artist's early summer
installation at London's Barbican featured reflections of the
sky in a Bolivian lake. He expands upon these ideas at Tanya
Bonakdar with Air-Port-City, an installation in which he
considers life in the stratosphere. Deceptively simple
sculptures, made of office supplies and cardboard, illustrate
the physics of off-Earth living, while Flying Garden, an
ethereal floating web, proves not only that plants can grow in
open air, but that they can imitate a chandelier's shape while
doing so. Projections from the Barbican exhibition are also
included, so that Americans get their own chance to walk among

Projected Realities presents videos by six contemporary

videos are riveting absurdist studies. In one selection from his
Eighteen Copper Guardians series, Tsui has objects hurled

— while he guesses what they are, and in his Shortcut
to the Systematic Life, he dons one slip-on outfit after
another to blend seamlessly into different social situations.
Projected onto the floor, Junebum Park's bird's-eye view I
Parking shows the artist's hands appearing to control the
movement of cars and pedestrians through carefully rehearsed
gestures, while Kazuhiro Goshima's existential black-and-white
animation FADE into WHITE #4 explores an architect's
studio, tools, and model. (GKH)

A Rabbit as King of the Ghosts, curated by photographers
Justine Kurland and Dan Torop, positions itself as an exhibition
about magic. Interspersing the work of contemporary artists with
historical prints, the exhibition presents photography as
transformative alchemy. David Benjamin Sherry distorts a man's
profile as he reclines in the sun, resurrecting the beatific
look of vintage album covers, and a contribution from Kenneth
Anger glows with occult energy. But the historical prints, such
as a Shriners' group portrait or romantic studies of ancient
ruins, prove the curators' point, turning the very
contemporaneity that photographs promise into a temporal lure
drawing viewers deep into the fantasy of bygone ceremony and
weathered sensibilities. (AM)

In Frank Borzage's films, love could never conquer all, but it
could provide the only solace in otherwise unrelentingly
harsh worlds. Always one heaving bosom shy of being unforgivably
maudlin, the director's melodramas worked not only because of
his undying commitment to beauty — from his stars to his
innovative cinematography — but because of the big,
boiling emotions that enabled audiences to channel their own. Of
most importance: the unusually witty caper Desire (1936),
starring Marlene Dietrich and Gary Cooper, and the monumental
adaptation of the Hemingway novel, A Farewell to Arms
(1932), with Cooper, Helen Hayes, and of course, nary a dry eye.

Continuing the tradition of New York-based artists drawing

Ten Eyck have created Yurt City, an installation mounted

yurts — the portable and self-supporting circular dwellings used
primarily by Central Asian nomads — Ross and Ten Eyck invited
artists Todd Knopka, Ted McGurn, and Derrick Wilson to add their
own modifications. The exhibition is not only a metaphor for the
malleability of urban life, but also a specific response to the
displacement of over 50 artists from nearby live/work spaces who

The latest of the genre is Shout! The Mod Musical, a
tongue-in-cheek musical review of the '60s, starring five women
representing expected stereotypes of the era: the floozy! the
alcoholic! and the mousy one! Their vinyl go-go boots are

CD REVIEW: Marsen Jules, Les Fleurs |
|
|
City Centre Offices
Released July 2006
$16.98 (Amazon)
|
Les Fleurs finds Dortmund-based Marsen Jules making only minor
adjustments to the winning formula employed on his 2005 City Centre Offices debut,
Herbstlaub. Orchestral swells are toned down in favor of more plucking, and sounds are
given more space to reverberate endlessly in summer caves; vibraphones,
harps, and all manner of other instrumentation congeal nicely together under
the half-submerged sun. Some mechanical textures come into play around the
halfway mark: the insect feet that try to gain footing in the waters of
"Anemone" and the dubby percussion that manages to anchor "Gueule de Loup"
ever so slightly. The disc's motifs are looped with the calm self-assurance
that if it doesn't drown you on the first wave, it's only a matter of time. (NC)

STREAMS: James Murphy and $mall ¢hange at The Long Tail Launch |
|
|
WIRED magazine editor-in-chief Chris Anderson plots the course of 21st-century culture and commerce in his new book, The Long Tail. First stop: Tribeca Cinemas, where Flavorpill helped launch Anderson's book this month with DFA honcho/LCD Soundsystem frontman James Murphy and eminent NYC cratedigger $mall ¢hange. As revelers drained the open bar, $mall ¢hange spun connective tissue between Steely Dan and James Brown, the Ramones and Beenie Man, and Chick Corea and the Dead Kennedys. Not one to keep his freak flag furled, Murphy followed with disco rarities, Krautrock, electro, boogaloo, and yes, Hot Chocolate. If the future, as Anderson claims, is about "selling less of more," then ¢hange and Murphy are positively clairvoyant. Stream their entire sets exclusively on AOL Music. (JAS)
