PROGRAM Xenakis: Dmaathen, Psappha; Stockhausen: Xi; Carter: Changes; Cage: with video by Ross Karr; Lindberg: Linea d'Ombra; Cage: Imaginary Landscape #4 for 12 radios (with video) conducted by Ross Karre and performed by 24 students from Music 131
9:00 PM
Kate Dollenmayer (Visiting Lecturer, UCSD Visual Arts) in
collaboration with Ross Karre (DMA candidate, UCSD Music) presents
Walking in an Imaginary Landscape.
Dollenmayer will screen a short film inspired by Oskar Fischinger's
1927 journey on foot through Germany, during which his film Walking
From Munich to Berlin was shot. Karre will lead an ensemble of 24
performers in a realization of John Cage's piece for twelve radios,
Imaginary Landscape #4. Beginning at 7:00 pm and continuing through
the evening, Dollenmayer will also present a hand-cranked 35mm
filmstrip installation showcasing footage from her own walk through
Germany in 2005. Audience members will have the opportunity to create
momentary personal hand-powered cinema, as well as walk along the
length of the moving filmstrip.
Dollenmayer's film is part of an ongoing documentary project about the
changing landscape of eastern Germany, funded in part by a grant from
the University of California Institute for Research in the Arts.
