Long involved in experimental music scenes as both a musician and a filmmaker, Colburn has honed a live practice of multiprojector, manipulated film and music shows. As she recently told Time Out New York, "When I'm filming, I'm working at a rate of, like, one second of film per hour. When I finish, I want to create in real time, or even better: double real time, and be my animated 'self.' I call together my musician friends who work on my soundtracks, and we play together." Tonight, she gathers legendary Half-Japanese founder Fair, Deerhoof guitarist Dietrich, pianist McDonas, and a cohort of New York collaborators — vocalist Abghari, noise artist Evans, violist Ortman, and drummer Sawyer — for an evening of immersive, live cinema.
will probably try and see some of this tonight - which is conveniently happening the one night a month i work there.

You know what kind of cheese it was.
I'm off to eat dinner and be a real person and try to recuperate before doing homework.
