– performance –

Screen Play (2005) premiered in the Performa biennial in New York, is inspired by the tradition of graphic scores – expanding it to include moving images and digital graphical elements that can function as signs suggesting emotions, energy, rhythm, pitch, volume and duration.
Three different musical groups are invited, one after the other, to produce a live performance and improvisation based on the “score” – the projected fi lm – enabling the general public to observe the musical process implied in each of the three soundtracks thereby created.

Group I
Nuno Rebelo – guitar
Marco Franco – drums
João Paulo Feliciano – organ
Rafael Toral – modular synthesizer and electronica

Group II
João Martins – saxophones and home-made electro-acustic instruments
Gustavo Costa – percussion and electronica
Jonathan Saldanha – electronica

Group III
Steve Beresford – electronica
Mark Sanders – percussion
Alan Tomlinson- trombones

Serpentine Gallery,

Organized in collaboration with the “Curating Contemporary Art MA” at the Royal College of Art.

“We are collecting doubts from key figures in the art world. The doubts will be displayed at a one-day event at the Serpentine Gallery on 20 June 2007, as well as being collated in a small publication. The event will coincide with the Paul Chan exhibition at the Serpentine and will include an afternoon ‘doubt surgery’ where visitors to the gallery can air their doubts and add them to the collection. The collection will also be available in a PDF format, and will be sent to all the participants after the event.” (taken from the curatorial briefing)
