(San Francicso)
“Crossing Disciplines”
The Seminar is followed by a Masterclass and Performance in the Music Studio
Pamela Z will discuss her working process, the blurring of lines across
disciplines, and the wide range of ideas and techniques that go into forming
and mounting the performance work. And she will address how how rapid changes
in available technology have effected the art. She plans to show video and
audio documentation of many works, and in the master-class do a certain amount
of live performance and demonstration of her tools and process. She also will
conduct some participatory activity involving voice and sound.
Pamela Z is a composer/performer and media artist who makes solo works
combining a wide range of vocal techniques with electronic processing, samples,
gesture activated MIDI controllers, and video. She has toured extensively
throughout the US, Europe, and Japan. Her work has been presented at venues and
exhibitions including Bang on a Can (NY), the Japan Interlink Festival, Other
Minds (SF), the Venice Biennale, and the Dakar Biennale. She's created
installation works and has composed scores for dance, film, and new music
chamber ensembles. Her numerous awards include a Guggenheim Fellowship, the
Creative Capital Fund, the CalArts Alpert Award, The MAP Fund, the ASCAP Award,
an Ars Electronica honorable mention, the NEA/JUSFC Fellowship, and a Djerrassi
Resident Artist Program residency. www.pamelaz.com
