Hamscholar
ACE [artist curated event]
Video presentation October 27th:
Up The Drone Suite
"Up The Drone Suite" deconstructs the concept of "drone music" to arrive at a sort of sound collage that is elastic in its associations and laser-like in its focus on achieving the state of a waking dream in the listener. Imagery is taken from life. Magic Realism is, in fact, Realism.
Sounds and images were captured at various times and places in Los Angeles County, 2020-2023, and collaged for this video project.

Performance On-site June 3rd:
Solid Boxes of Nothing
Hamscholar will spontaneously compose a work that engages the specific context of the Port of Los Angeles, shipping and trade generally, and global exchange of all kinds, employing strategies of dissonance, bifurcation, chance, and drone to clarify the audience's state of mind.
