Additional Info:
In the heady days of the early 1990s, a wave of intrepid young bands made some unexpected connections between their post-punk approach to music, the exultant electronic reverberations from the early days of Acid House and the sonic sculptures crafted by classic producers like Phil Spector. As these sounds coalesced, Spector's vaunted "Wall Of Sound" would be a handy touchstone for the immersive latticework of distortion and melody that would be off-handedly labeled later as "Shoegaze".Even amongst a quasi-movement as loosely defined and musically divergent as this, Seefeel emerged as the black sheep. Conceived by Mark Clifford and Sarah Peacock, Seefeel immediately amalgamated electronics in ways most of their peers in traditional bands would never dream of, these sounds fused deeply with guitar, drums and bass into urgent melodic waves that on early releases like Quique and Succour oscillated between hopefulness, introspection and downright menace. As Warp co-founder Steve Beckett says, "Seefeel were the first band that Warp signed who had guitars - they were brave to sign to us because they became the 'older siblings' in the family and took all the flak by breaking the unwritten rules of an (up until then) purely dance label. After 1995's 'Succour' they stopped performing live, but we always kept in touch and then for the first Warp20 show in Paris we asked if they would play."The immediate result of their live reformation in Paris was the single "Faults", the band's ranks now including bassist Shigeru Ishihara and former Boredoms drummer Iida Kazuhisa (aka E-Da). Their first release since 1996's (CH-VOX), "Faults" proved to be a clear and welcome progression for a group that had never been predictable. Drawing on everything from gamelan and krautrock to the fringes of underground bass music, Seefeel's new material has been met with a resounding "welcome back" and an instant affinity with new peers such as Gang Gang Dance, HEALTH, Battles and Salem.

The Numberz Live Broadcast

THE CORPORATE COUP D’ÉTAT
(A Q&A will follow the screening with the movie’s coproducer Jeff Cohen.)
Hollywood Reporter calls it: “A horror film of the most realistic kind."
The movie examines how we “arrived at Trump.” It travels to the “sacrifice zones” of Camden NJ and Youngstown OH to reveal how corporations have hijacked US democracy to the detriment of most citizens. Featured analysts include Chris Hedges, Cornel West, Sarah Jaffe and John Ralston Saul. The film depicts Trump as a horrific symptom of the disease called “corporatism” and features interviews with former union workers in Ohio who’d voted for Obama and Bernie Sanders . . . and then flipped to Trump.
From The Hollywood Reporter review: "Among the more powerful segments are an interview with a homeless woman who's pitched a tent near a scrapyard and shares what little she has with others in her predicament, and a worker wandering through a foreclosed house still filled with the possessions of its former occupants, including its owner who left a suicide note and hung himself in the garage. It's those human faces of income inequality that give ‘The Corporate Coup d’État’ its greatest emotional heft."
JEFF COHEN founded the media watch group FAIR in 1986, and cofounded the online activist group RootsAction.org in 2011. He has coproduced several documentaries, including “All Governments Lie” and “The Brainwashing of My Dad.” Cohen is a former TV commentator and author of “Cable News Confidential: My Misadventures in Corporate Media.”

About the Exhibition
Throughout his career, artist Hank Willis Thomas (American, born 1976) has addressed the visual systems that perpetuate inequality and bias in bold, skillfully crafted works. Through photographs, sculpture, video, and collaborative public art projects, he invites us to consider the role of popular culture in instituting discrimination and how art can raise critical awareness in the ongoing struggle for social justice and civil rights.
Following its presentation in Portland, the exhibition will travel to Crystal Bridges Museum of American Art in Bentonville, Arkansas (February 8 – April 20, 2020), and to the Cincinnati Art Museum in Cincinnati, Ohio (July 10 – October 11, 2020).
As Fall is upon us, we are shifting locations to a place that few people have seen, but trust us, you should. It is one of the most amazing creative spaces in the city. Bodecker has hosted musical performances in the bottom of a skate bowl, taught young performers how to manufacture merch and needs to be seen to be believed. We will only be here for this month and be somewhere new in November.
Our topic is suited to the space as we present a panel to explore the promise and challenges of house shows and pop-up musical events. Can these (often well-paying) alternative performance options work cooperatively with traditional venues and with the city to expand the earning potential of local and touring musicians? Expect a vibrant conversation.
These First Monday gatherings have become the place where we remind ourselves that we are a huge and potent professional music community. Come. Connect. Engage. See the incredible Bodecker space - play some mini golf (seriously!!!)
All-ages. Entrance (and the drinks) are free, but require that you have completed the 2-min MusicPortland Profile. (http://bit.ly/MuPoProfile ). We'll check you in at the door and help you complete a profile on the spot, if you need help, but faster if you do it before you come.
