I’m finally back in New York after a month in my home state of Massachusetts, including two non-stop weeks in North Adams working for Nick Brooke as lead audio tech, sound designer and live mix engineer for his residency at Mass MoCA. I wish I could say I’ll have some time to relax, but I wont. While I do have some free time, though, I thought I’d share some thoughts of the last few weeks.

A Massive Study in Time, Motion and Preparedness.
John Cage at 95
In honor of John Cage’s 95th birthday, Avant Media Performance presents an evening of two multimedia realizations of works by John Cage on September 5, 2007. “Four6″ (for any way of producing sounds) will be performed in an electro-acoustic realization featuring Randy Gibson on electronics, Mike Rugnetta on guitar and video by Patrick Davison. The second half of the concert is a true musicircus with “Winter Music,” “Atlas Eclipticalis,” and an actors’ realization by Laine Rettmer of “Song Books” being performed simultaneously. The evening will also see the world premiere of Randy Gibson’s “One Wall – for John Cage” assisted by Mike Rugnetta and Guy Snover.
Bringing together musicians, filmmakers, actors, and technicians, this evening pays tribute to the collaborative and innovative legacy of John Cage.
