I’ll be performing from 7:30 to 8:30 but you can spend the day. Lovesphere happens on or around the vernal equinox, this is the 11th one and it is going back to it’s roots, improvisation.
This is an 11 hour compostion, where each artist takes a single note, around which they improvise and compose. I’m listed here under my old band’s name, Gametone (pronounced gamma tone). This was Gamelan based percussion, on instruments made from found objects.

A typical Gametones gig
But my performance this year will be primarily, sample based with live vocals, and some tuned percussion. If I had been paying attention when the poster was being created I would have just gone with my name.
