Drummer's Secret Handshake #2
In an action titled "Economimesis", tonight's performance is the newest iteration of Decolonizing the Imagination arts practicum from Music Research Strategies chief investigator Marshall Trammell. Featuring Bay Area percussionists Jacob Felix Heule, Jay Korber, Mark Small & Marshall Trammell, this project documents a mimetic relationship to nature in the production of art, applied technologies of empathetic and cooperative dynamics, and serves as source material for performance analysis and the development of a participatory observation tools.

John Krausbauer & David Kendall
Ritual endurance and trance psychedlia comes to Second Act as Krausbauer and Kendall performing a new composition, PDRM, constructed from a 'just' tuned 3 string electric guitar with real time and algorithmic delay/spatialization processing. Slow, spectral tonal movements and a deluge of polyrhythmic beats occur through (de)tunings and altered tempos.

Danishta Rivero
It's no longer a question of whether you're a brain in a jar, but what qualia is the jar made of and is the brain yours alone? Danishta Rivero pokes pitch dark fun at these questions probing an actual jar filled with CSF and surrounding lightforms. Using multivalent circuits and specialized contractions of the laryngopharynx, Rivero agitates rods of Corti, gypsum, superior temporal gyrus, glass, epidermis, and concrete in stochastic sympathy. If during her performance you remain unaware of any jar, continue to row row row, gently.
