Mondays at Resonance FM

Resonance 104.4 fm hosts Monday afternoon Shadow Walking from 1:30p-2p in London. The show is hosted and created by Viv Corringham through a process of going on "other people's "special" walks, repeated and sung by [Corringham]. Someone takes me on a walk that is in some way significant to them, and I record us walking together. Later I walk it alone, improvising vocally as I go. The two walks are edited together to make these programmes. "

The sound invades the scene of art and the artists' practice, triggering original, fascinating and, sometimes unforeseen, combinations. A new collective and international sensitiveness is seeking to gather and convey the reasons of these harmonies and these dissonances.

el topo does your laundry

This is just so great we have to post it:

"Doesn't going to the laundromat suck? It's a Wednesday night, you're burned out from work and the weekend before, and you're sitting underneath a sputtering fluorescent light, pawing through a two-and-a-half year old issue of Redbook, while a crying toddler kicks the leg of your chair. You're wearing sweatpants, and you're paying for the privilege of using someone else's washing machine.

Isn't that the single worst moment of the week? Don't you wish some kind of angel would descend and save you from the tedium? That you could be whisked away from your misery and suddenly transported to -- oh, say, a rock show?

Well, El Topo is that angel. Thanks to us, doing the laundry can actually be something you look forward to, at least this one time. For we will be invading Wash 'N Clean on 14. We pledge the following: 1) We will perform original rock and roll music, to the best of our ability. 2) Your laundry will be free. That's right, free laundry. It's on us."

Wednesday, November 10
Wash N Clean
14th Street between Avenues A and B, Manhattan
8p; $free

The Center for Land Use Interpretation

The latest CLUI - Newsletter has just been published.

"The Summer 2004 edition of the "Lay of the Land" newsletter is now online!

It's our largest to date at 40MB of data with 19 online pages (equivalent to the 28 print pages), including just under 100 photographs."

This is a great program looking at land from artistic, research, theorists and anyone else interested in land use. I recommend wandering around their website. Its huge, but every page is informative and well put together.
