Dear Friend of CNMAT,

For over 20 years CNMAT has been more than a widely respected site for research, training and public events focused on the creative interaction between music and science. It has also been a meeting place for artists, scholars, professionals and novices from many backgrounds and interests - a place to share ideas, become inspired and engage with visionaries from around the world.

Now, we need generous folks like you - people who share our passion for new music, new ideas, new approaches to artistic creation - to make a gift. Your donation helps us develop and deliver CNMAT's unique contributions to the community: from vital, transformative software for music creation to our extraordinary live concerts, lectures, workshops and demonstrations.

Your support helps make what we do possible. UC Berkeley covers only a fraction of our budget. To provide you with all that CNMAT has to offer, we rely on you - friends of CNMAT - to keep us active on the frontiers of new music. Please make a gift today, and thank you in advance for your support.

Sincerely,

David Wessel
Edmund Campion
Adrian Freed
Richard Andrews

OpenSound West presents an evening of improvised music:
Archer Spade meets Ueno/Ingalls
Sunday, January 8, 2012
8 pm
CNMAT
$10 general/$5 students and seniors
http://cnmat.berkeley.edu/event/2012/01/08/opensound_west_presents_evening_improvised_music_archer_spade_mee

Archer Spade is a collaboration between composer/performers Dan Blacksberg and Nick Millevoi that seeks to broaden the repertoire of new music and re-imagine the possibilities for their respective instruments of trombone and electric guitar. Together they have established a wide-ranging duo vocabulary from a decade of collaborations across genres that include experimental music, jazz, punk rock, and Jewish music. Archer, Spade strives to perform music that reflects the world that the members live in, which absorbs influences beyond the classical tradition and cultivates their personal sounds and techniques to create a singular body of work. In addition to their own works, Archer Spade has performed music by Roscoe Mitchell, David Soldier, and John DeBlase, and has upcoming performances of music by Gene Coleman.

The duo of Ken Ueno (vocals) and Matt Ingalls (clarinet) bring together an arsenal of extended techniques for an experience that defies classical expectations of sounds that can be made on voice and clarinet. Ueno sings overtones, multi-band multiphonics, sub-tones, and throat sings. Ingalls' clarinet technique includes circular-breathing, multiphonics, and various breath effects, as well as an unique hybrid-timbre polyphonic effect.
