ROURKE’s BEEN IN THE WIND + PICKARD/MONTERO + TRAINOR +
This season’s celebration of single-frame cinema boasts none Other than local hero Jeremy Rourke, with four new and enhanced works, most of which presented in his “live-music mode”–adjacent, almost ’embedded’ stand-up strumming (with occasional added screens). Opening the program is an eye-popping line-up of pixilated premieres, with three more animator/performers in person! Leo Pickard proffers his live-tracked birds nest, then brings on Camila Montero to introduce their collaboration El Raton Perez. East Bay-based Anna Firth is also here with her delightful Air. AND the evening’s repertoire is enriched by the inclusion of somewhat earlier works–Kingdom of Not‘s Why Do Doggie Eat the Tinsel, Jim Trainor‘s The Moschops, James Head‘s Fangula, Kelly Gallagher‘s Dance, and the crafty creations of Chileans Cristobal Leon & Joaquin Cocina. PLUS Philip Stapp‘s epic Picture in your Mind, and our beloved custom of toast-n-jam! $12
