Postcommodity

December 9, 2010 Events

• Postcommodity
Stan Herd’s Studio (512 E. 9th St. in Lawrence, KS)
Friday, December 10, 8-11pm

From the organizers:
The Lawrence Arts Center presents a performance by Postcommodity. Postcommodity will perform their new cycle of American Indian futurist hunting songs, “Your New Age Dream Contains More Blood Than You Imagined.” The trio, which features Raven Chacon (KILT, Mesa Ritual and numerous other ensembles), Nathan Young (Ajilvsga, Alms) and Kade Twist (Usga), utilizes antlers, hunting calls and amplifiers to achieve an electro-acoustic hybrid of drone and free-improvisation that transports audiences to that distant place in the woods your parents warned you about. The performance will be accompanied by multi-channel video projections created from feedback that continually shift, evolve and re-imagine the tribal geometries of the future. See LAC’s website for additional info: www.lawrenceartscenter.org
