Apr 8, 2012. Just saw the title and made me aware of how it sounded. Perhaps not as sexy a post given the title…. Move the drawings to three dimensional space. Do it with movement and sound. Possibly by diffusing the sound. Eliminate the canvas/flat surface [any surface]. Eliminate the physical mark. Use concat synthesis to create the sounds using gesture. The natural gesture that would create them on the canvas surface I’m used to (as a starting point from which to build). Keep breath to light. Play bac...

ICMC | Takahashis Shellfish Concern
http://www.takahashisshellfishconcern.com/2012/06/icmc
Jun 9, 2012. Update June 9, 2012:. We’ve just gotten the video footage of our performance at the ICMC. I had originally felt bad about this performance (even though I thought, and still think, the painting turned out great) but after watching it back, I think even the performance was good. I barely remember any specifics from the performance itself. Watching this back is like watching someone else. Originally post below – from August 3, 2011:. The painting is now owned by P.A. Tremblay. Want to build tha...

Takahashi's Shellfish Concern - Part 4
http://www.takahashisshellfishconcern.com/page/4
Jul 8, 2011. Cara B = Side B. This July we were invited to be a part of an exhibition event put together by the Blank Media Collective. Fun Fact: Blank Media put on the first Takahashi show ever. The way this event came together was a really great experience. From the beginning, Mark Devereux (blank media’s director) really drove the point home that he wanted it to be artist-centric. It was an exhibition showcasing our work, as well as that of Naomi Kendrick. Which is run by Anton and Rod. Jun 30, 2011.

Spotlight – Art of Festivals
https://artoffestivals.com/category/spotlight
Should I talk about the cost and length of training? Artist fees not quite a given. Short-term and freelance contracts replacing secure jobs in organisations of all sizes. Not to mention the bullying. Socio-economic and ethnic discrimination. Maybe I should just stick to the brief: what I do, how I got there, what I like about it and what kind of skills I need to do my job, a few simple points to be covered in 5-10 minutes. So, to answer the questions:. What does a Festival and Arts Coordinator do? Some ...

Interview: Anton Hunter - M Magazine
http://www.m-magazine.co.uk/interviews/interview-anton-hunter
Posted 22 July 2014. Photo credit – Jon Tipler. Young guitarist musician Anton Hunter is inspired as much by artrock noisniks Mogwai and MyBloodyValentine as experimental jazz artists such as Graham Collier. It’s no surprise then that he won the 2014 Irwin Mitchell mjf originals commission for this year’s Manchester Jazz Festival. How did you begin making music? How did you get involved with the Manchester Jazz Festival? I’ve lived in Manchester for 12 years and have been aware of the festival for most o...
