3 sets of music

7:30 Friendship Cemetery (Parham Daghini and Steve Janssen)

(John Dikeman, Onno Govaert, Ava Mendoza

9pm Henry Kaiser Quartet (HK, Damon Smith, Steve Parker, Chris Cogburn)

Cactus Truck

John Dikeman - sax / Ava Mendoza - guitar / Onno Govaert - drums

Amsterdam’s Cactus Truck creates startlingly intense music, not merely in terms of volume or velocity but through complete physical/psychological surrender. One can find hints of delta blues, early free jazz, Japanese noise, and no wave in the music. Cactus Truck will be joined by Brooklyn guitarist Ava Mendoza who was recently named one of Guitar World‘s “10 Female Guitarists You Should Know”

Henry Kaiser Quartet

Steve Parker - trombone / Henry Kaiser - guitar / Damon Smith - double bass / Chris Cogburn - percussion

Guitar innovator and master improviser Henry Kaiser will be joined by some of the finest improvising musicians from Houston and Austin.

Grammy winner Henry Kaiser is widely recognized as one of the most creative and innovative guitarists, improvisers, and producers in the fields of rock, jazz, world, and contemporary experimental musics. The California-based musician is one of the most extensively recorded as well, having appeared on more than 250 different albums and contributed to countless television and film soundtracks. A restless collaborator who constantly seeks the most diverse and personally challenging contexts for his music, Mr. Kaiser not only produces and contributes to a staggering number of recorded projects, he performs frequently throughout the USA, Canada, Europe and Japan, with several regular groupings as well as solo guitar concerts and concerts of freely improvised music with a host of diverse instrumentalists. Mr. Kaiser was, perhaps, the first recording artist to employ digital looping, on his 1978 albums ALOHA and OUTSIDE PLEASURE. "

-Traveling along the path of a labyrinth, the viewer passes through a series of extremely diverse landscapes, which are created through lush animation, evocative orchestral music, and rich dialog, in which words are used as much for rhythm and texture as they are for meaning. A man and woman guide us on this trip, taking us past gently falling Mondrian paintings, violent car crashes and bombing raids, and a pair of dancing, multicolored boxes, among many other settings. Based on an improvised performance, SUGGESTIVE GESTURES leads us gradually and indirectly towards a mysterious animal, hiding in the center of the maze.
