"Tune Contributors in this issue: Lee Pui Ming is one of the most compelling improvisors in N. America today. Oassically trained on piano, she blends jazz, • Chinese traditional music, new concert and experimental musics. In this issue, we have blended elements of her sketches towards a composition titled TheSongin Flamesto highlight their drawing quality. Conceptually, the central image in this work is the Phoenix. In Chinese mythology, she flies into the sun to bum herself to death every couple of hundred years so as to be reborn. It is said that the Phoenix had a song of five tones which is significant because the Chinese music scale is pentatonic. Lee Pui Ming's discography includes Nine FoldHeart(Pochee Records, 1994)and StrangeBeauty(Dorian Records, 1994).

During three events scheduled for late May, 100 singers carrying portable radios airing Kennedy's score will grace some prime Vancouver turf, including the new Vancouver Public Library (during its opening ceremonies), Granville Island Market and the yancouver Art Gallery. The singers' radios are tuned to a low-watt signal Kennedy transmits from a nearby building. The NumbersGamescore blends pre-recorded classical music and found sounds from the sites (birds, trucks). The choir's text is made up entirely of numbers sung in different languages. As the singers make their way across the site, with K~nnedy 'choreographing' the sound to take full advantage of the acoustic environment, the individual radios keep everyone on cue. "It's important to stimulate listening and to make people aware of space - particularly in our time," says Kennedy. Her interest in sonic environments and how sound is perceived draws this composer to public 6 Vancouver Art Gallery Monday, May 29, 1:00 pm places, where the line between performer and audience is less defined. Similar versions of Kennedy's sound installations occured in 1993 - unannounced and indoors - at Montreal's Hydro Quebec and Palais de Justice buildings and, in 1994, at the block-long Place des Arts, during which hundreds of people moved along with the choir to hear the sound. Called Never/Always, the work was recorded for the CD compilation Musicworks59 and appears along with Soundwalk,a concert hall version of found sound, orchestra and choir, recorded live at the Banff Centre. Kennedy is spending a month-long residency at the Western Front during May. She earned a Bachelor of Fine Arts in Studio Art and a Bachelor of Music, both at Concordia University, and a Master's of Music in Performance (voice) at the University of Western Ontario. As well as composing for film and choreography, she is the director of the innovative women's choir ChoeurMaha. For more information, please contact DB, 876-9343; or Nancy Lanthier, 685-0712.

The Third Annual Summer Workshop in the Rich Classical Percussion Music of Central Java, Known as Gamelan July 2-15 du Maurier International Jazz Festival June 23-30, All shows begin at 5:30pm, $10/8 except EDAM performances: June 23, 24 at 8pm $12 call: Jazz Hotline 682-0706 George Lewis - Media Residency June-July 1995 George E. Lewis: lmprovisors Forum Friday, June 23 George Lewis is a jazz musician from the U.S.A. As a well respected computer programmer and interactive artist, he has been teaching computer music at University of Southern California for several years. George visited Vancouver every July for the last five years as an instructor for the Simon Fraser University's Computer Intensive. He will once again be staying at the Western Front, but this time he will be here as the artist-in-residence. His work with computers normally includes the creation of interactive music systems for performance. For the residency he will be exploring the new area of multi-media publishing. He plans to combine audio and video clips of various musicians with his writing on the AACM to create a critical, aesthetic and informational hyperdocument. With George, though, anything is possible, so we'll see when he gets here. 10 Multi-talented George Lewis, an original member of Chicago's AACM, is a composer, trombone player and computer/installation artist. His work on trombone is featured on over 80 recordings, with Anthony Braxton, John Zorn, Sam Rivers and many more. Lewis' compositions are intertextual, blending sound, text and performance, and utilizing electronic, acoustic, vocal and percussive textures. His work deals with issues of real-time exchange of personal, social and cultural narrative, and the musical consequences of the exchange process, where the personalities of the musicians are welcomed into the structure of the compositions. George Lewis has recently composed new works for improvising ensembles in California. Lewis will set his new compositions on some of Vancouver's finest improvisors, who have joined forces to form this creative orchestra. The performers on this very special event include: Kate Hammett-Vaughan(voice), Ron Samworth(guitar), Paul Plimley (piano), Coat Cooke, BruceFreedman,Saul Berson, GrahamOrd (saxophones), John Korsrud(trumpet), Ralph Eppel (trombone), Peggy lee (cello), Dylan Van Der Schyff (drums), Paul Blaney, Clyde Reed (basses). George E. lewis, the composer, will conduct the ensemble and perform on trombone and electronics. FRONT pm----------- Events at the Western Front Gamelan(s)are ensembles of mostly percussion and are of varying size, made up of instruments like bronze gongs, kettles, thick keyed metal and wooden bars, drums, stringed instruments, voices, flutes, and zithers. This workshop will be focused on the traditional music of Central Java. A dominant feature of Javanese music is the complex layering of rhythmic patterns, fused with a highly evolved system of pitches, improvisation and performance rules for each instrument creating a music of infinite depth and shimmering beauty. This is a hands-on workshop and participants will be learning and playing the instruments of Kyai Madu Sari (The Venerable Essence of Honey), a complete court style gamelan from Central Java. This year .we are fortunate to have as master teacher A.l. Suwardi, from Solo Java. Suwardi is one of the most respected performers and creators of new and traditional Javanese gamelan music, and is an expert of all the instruments of the gamelan. He will be assisted by Sutrisno, a Javanese musician/dancer who is living and teaching in Vancouver. This workshop is open to all who are interested. Gasses will be held in the evenings from 4:30 to 10:00 pm with a 40-minute communal dinner break. The workshop also includes videos, private instruction, lecture demonstrations, source readings on social/ cultural history, theory and technique, a complete instructional listening archive, and musical notation. Fees for the course will be $250.00 (Can.) for the full two weeks, or $150.00 for one week, or special arrangement. Payment can be made by cheque, money order, or at the workshop.

AnnualArt Auction& Dinner CobaretVulgare 13 FRONT visual, I use a lot of visual examples of non-mainstream artists. I try to bring in mostly women as visiting lecturers. We focus on women who use their bodies in the work to construct identity, dealing with issues like SIM pornography, illness etc. We discuss, not too theoretically. We read Lacan and Kristeva and we look at videos. You'veused the term Auto Body which I had never heard of before.... Yes we see more women using their body. We've seen an artist like Carolee Schneeman using her body, but now we are seeing more artists doing very intimate, very private things, making very private moments of our bodies public. They raise this interesting question of what is public and private. Auto Bodymeans our own body. Our autonomous body. I think now we feel our bodies are more independent. It is a Greek word. Autonomous means independent. Is there a necessity to see it as a way of working that hasn'tbeen fully identified? Thereis body artfromthe seventies and now you aretalking about women's Auto Body ... I like that. Before, it was a different sensibility, of mainly heterosexual women. It was more about domesticity. But now we see more taboo issues as content. When Caroleewas here she didn't think anything could be taboo anymore. Well I'll tell you, there has been and there still are taboos. I had 30 students and most of them were very young. Half of the semester they were in resentment because they had difficulty looking at some of the works. They were telling me "that's pornography" - everything was pornography. So although we may say nothing is taboo, in a classroom you are surprised to find how many there are. I am very disappointed to find that I am much more liberal than my students. I think in Carolee'sstatement, she • might have meant that the shock that is createdby the issue doesn't reorganizethinking in the way it seemed to in the 60s and 70s. But also our issues are different. Women's issues are different, I hope they are. I respect the work of Nancy Shapiro and Judy Chicago but then their work was related to domesticity and the period. I believe women are definitely out of the house now and she needs equal treatment in the outside environment. There are some Iiiff~r~ncesin thT fe1,tl,P}~,Q}.Pf tly;~O , can exist simultaneously. Technically you can create a new reality from many realities using non-linear editing. If you ask me where I live I feel it is very difficult to say. I have an address but I have many addresses. I move and create work all over the place. I believe it is not so simple anymore. I tend to believe more and more that when we are looking into the mirror it's not our mirror image. I think I am the gap in-between the mirror image and myself and I am trying to put this gap together.

Although I agree gender is very important, I think the way science and genetics is moving, who knows what is going to happen in relation to gender. Why should our thinking be so strict and fanatic? In one of your statements,thinking aboutgender,identity and electronics,you used the phrase "my mobilewholeness",I thought that fnsteadof talking aboutthe fractured subjectyou were talking about a wholeness thatwasn'tessential. I'm not one woman I'm many women. I am not who I see in the mirror. I am the gap in between and I'll never probably discover who I am. The discovery is a series of fragments. Do you find video a useful tool in this regard? Yes. I work more and more with video because it allows me this fragmentation of different realities. I 26 FRONT authenticity, it has multiplicity. It plays between my originality and authenticity and my non-authenticity. And with some images you can feel the pressure of my body against the scanner, its surface. This is how the still images have been created. I have manipulated it through the computer but not by much. I increased the serpentine quality to go with the architecture. It is a feminizing architecture in opposition to the patriarchal phallic modern architecture. The feminizing architectureof the piece? Yes, it was very serpentine created by the fluidity of the body.
