Fine-tuning through the ultra-rich ether, we have discovered some, uh, “special” frequencies that ‘charm’, and re-animate concepts of contemporary A/V installation/performance, with jolts of juice both natural and ‘super’. Mission whiz Josh Ellingson marvels all with demos of his current works – thee eye-popping Pepper’s Ghost, as well as his re-wiring of cult director Sid Davis‘ Age 13. Anchoring the second half is a co-hit that threatens to crack through the ‘Quantum Consensus’: the US premiere of Riar Rizaldi‘s Tellurian Drama, a 20-min anomaly that asks way more that it answers, on the uses and possible abuses of an obscure Malabar Radio Antenna, on the island of Java in the Indonesian archipelago during the Dutch colonial period. Berlin skeptic Thorsten Fleisch contributes Astrogolem, his digital hypothesis on a time-traveling Nikolai Tesla, while Craig Baldwin shares his own revelations from his speculative history Spectres of the Spectrum (exc). PLUS Piercing the Unknown, Hippies High on Alpha, Clara Rockmore’s Theremin, and other inquiries into novel pop-music forms flowing from those magickal waves of electricity! $13
