8pm Illegal Art: Evolution Control Committee plus Spin-17 plus Christian Marclay and Mark Hosler $12 107 norfolk, nyc Admission includes a free, limited edition illegal art cd (eaturing "illegal" tracks from Public Enemy, Negativland, John Oswald, the Beastie Boys, and more). Evolution Control Committee: The Evolution Control Committee is a "band", but probably like none youve ever seen or heard. No drums. No guitar. No bass. The ECC deals with the budding field of "Media Ecology" -- recycling the sounds around you. Sound collage, media pranksterism, a cavalcade of sampling... in the world of The ECC, Public Enemy duke it out with Herb Alpert while Dan Rather is the new frontman for AC/DC. It is humorous without being comedy, sample-based without being techno, and brainy without being arty. Spin-17: Spin-17 is a duo project that mixes improvisation with experimental composition (with a little bit of punk thrown in for fun). Mix together the worst records from Salvation Army, the contents of a Toys 'R' Us electronics department, some down-home reed chawin' clarinet, the evil ghost of Betty Boop, and some Ante-diluvian anvil-guitar-plunking. Bake for 5 minutes and swallow quickly. Christian Marclay and Mark Hosler: Mark from pioneering sound collagists Negativland meets pioneering turntablist Christian Marclay. _________________________________________________________________ Add photos to your e-mail with MSN 8.
