San Francisco-based composer, performer and media artist Pamela Z
performs as part of Electrogals 2011.
High Voltage
“Gals Gone Wired” at Disjecta for annual
celebration of women in digital arts
It’s a positively charged premise: a showcase of electronic music and digi
tal art created by women. They like to call it sound art. W ho are “they”? A
Pacific Northwest collective of “gals gone wired.”
That’s right, the Electrogals are back for a week of concerts, audio instal
lations, workshops and lectures.
The 2011 festival, hosted by Disjecta Interdisciplinary Arts Center, plugs
in with a rare Portland appearance by San Francisco- based composer, per
former and media artist Pamela Z, known for audio experiments that mix
live digital delay vocal processing with percussion objects, spoken word and
sampled sound. Also on the bill: Tender Forever, Lovers, Marisa Anderson,
Briana Marela and Natasha Kmeto.
As dynamic as the concerts themselves are the creative processes involved
in said sound art. At this year’s event, a Composer in Residence installation
will allow attendees the chance to see and hear a composer (Electrogals’
founder Heather Perkins, among them) as she works on an original piece of
music. Other gallery offerings will feature works from around the world,
including—how’s this for surround sound?— listening stations housed in
vintage hair dryers.
Lectures will spotlight “time-banking,” thanks to IJ.K. artist Stephanie
Rcarick, the history of electronic music with Bonnie Miksch and a demo on
making music with an iPad.
Now in their fifth year, the ladies of Electrogals arc set to prove they’re as
dynamic as ever. Electrifying, indeed.
Oct. 10-15; $20, D isjecta Interdisciplinary A rts Center, 8371 N . Interstate A ve.;
$20 general, $15 students/seniors fo r concerts, $5 suggested donation fo r each w ork
shop a n d lecture, $50fo r fe s tiv a l pass, gallery installations arefree; electrogals.com.
