Sweet Ruin



Photobucket



"I love you, without knowing how to do it." - Sweet Ruin, 2008 Elisabeth Subrin-----an experimental adaptation of Michelangelo Antonioni’s unrealized script, Technically Sweet, written in the late '60s, but never produced. Set in the Amazon and Sardinia, it was to star Jack Nicholson as T., a disillusioned journalist obsessed with guns, and Maria Schneider as "The Girl." In two screens paralleling the dual plots of his script, Sweet Ruin imagines the ruins of Antonioni's work, as if it somehow actually filmed, but then lost and forgotten.

Sights and Sounds of Fall and Winter 2009 into 2010

A few videos of my past adventures as I get ready for new ones ahead.


This series of short videos are from the beginning of my Eastern European tour and back to Berlin, where I hung out with a bunch of different sound and visual artists while waiting a week to perform for the International Turntablist Orchestra at the Akademie der Kunste.


Getting nervous, 6 hours to Gdansk:







The first man to speak english in on my way to Gdansk.





The rolling hills of Poland and the Czech Republic...







Here was a moment where everything stopped, became very still and the church bells from nearby began to ring.





Heading back to Berlin from Ostrava after a very successful show.








Back in Berlin. Had a few days to do nothing but meet with other artists and go see some performances. One of my favorites was this one with 8 upright bassists. Was good.


Hanging out with the boys of AIDS 3-D.







Stars Like Fleas packing up and walking down a ridiculous amount of stairs after a show in Berlin.





Returning to NYC from Berlin. I arrived and performed for the Merce Cunningham Memorial at the Park Avenue Armory.
