times, multiple selections will be playing simultaneously; curated by Jon
Abbey of Erstwhile Records and Michael Goodstein
of WFMU
 
 Myriam Gourfink and Kasper ToeplitzMonday 18
TOO GENERATE : we made choreography and music at the same time, considering
the body as an abstract volume, and sound as motion, or stillness - they
are equal and bring a new approach to the usual process of
such a project: the music is neither a support nor an accompaniment to the
movement, the dance is not "on"
the music; the technical apparatus - sound system, computer and musician -
stands front stage, blocking the audience's view; Gourfink,dance and
Toeplitz, music/computer
