Monday, February 28th, my roommate Julie [BFA 3 composer at CalArts] had an Undergraduate recital, and as the opening show, she had my other roommate, Christy Heyob and I paint on paper over a canvas that reflected our subconscious mood on the impromtu musical graphic noted piece titled Air Loom. A minute excerpt can be heard here [the full piece is around 12 minutes and is never exactly the same]. Awesome job guys~
Composer: Julie Assaf [Second Photo, Distant Left]
Marimba: Tony Gennaro [Center]
Flute: Christine Linza [Left]
Vocals: Amanda Adrian [Right]
Painters: Jessica A.M. Chen [aka JACONNI, unfeatured], and Christy Heyob [Second Photo, Right most]
This is sound check:
I painted on the left easel:
My interpretation. Air sounds like spinning wheels and spokes to me. I call this Abstract pinwheels:
This is Christy's complete 180 painting. Full color, swirly, and soft. I call it Beauty from Hatred. I told her: "We should decorate the walls of our place with these!" She replied, "You can; I'm going to decorate mine with the garbage." I now own the painting. :]
