the University show

We are continuing with our new format of creating material for the show in a collaborative environment.

Everyone is welcome at anytime. You can participate in all aspects of the show, but you must be present at the specified times to contribute as a writer and/or performer.

Want to write for the show? Come at 7PM.
Want to perform in the show? Come at 8PM.
Want to watch the creation? Come at 9PM.

In honor of the start of Purdue’s 2011 Fall Semester, we are asking people to draw upon this event for their inspiration. Think of Purdue, students, university, classes, the Hello Walk, campus, the Village, coffee shops, house parties, the Union, clubs, grad students, dissertations, grants, loans.

Can’t make it? Call our voicemail art project, 312-DRY-TOFU (312-379-8638), to contribute via the phone. To be considered for this month’s show, you must call before August 28th.

Think! Found Magazine meets J&C Letters to the Editor. Their relationship grows stale and they put an ad on Craigslist. After a few days they meet Daniil Kharms. All is interesting and fresh again. As they grow old, the three of them enjoy reading Viola Spolin, William S. Burroughs, Keith Johnstone, and Albert Camus before they go to bed. Soundtracking their life’s journey are the works of Laurie Anderson, Jeffry Lewis, and Cecil Taylor.

312-DRY-TOFU - Free-form Question, Comment, Improvisation Voicemail Line

Here is another installment of the free-form question, comment and improvisational voicemail art project, 312-DRY-TOFU (312-379-8638). In this episode, we hear tales of desk cleaning, some language we don’t understand, feeling comfort and satisfaction in life, and a request to Mr. Lugar to call in the troops.

Kankakee, Mississippi, Wabash: the Other Side of the River (a journey)

Several weeks ago my sister, Nichole, came down for a weekend visit and we decided to make some musique concrète.

We walked around West Lafayette and Lafayette, recorded sounds, talked, and then went into the studio to sample our discoveries.

The result was our collaborative album: Kankakee, Mississippi, Wabash: the Other Side of the River (a journey).

Kankakee

01 – Motherland (within means)

02 – tread on air
03 – abrupt injunction
04 – set the teeth on edge
05 – Valkyrie (an interlude)
06 – invulnerable (a demonstration)
07 – …and the rest

Mississippi

01 – Shells, Shillings, and Spacecraft

02 – Murmured Performance
03 – A Builder’s Toil
04 – Joyous Parted Mastheads
05 – Bus Stop Scandal
06 – Observed Provisions
07 – The Fallow Rink

You can also listen to and download the full albums below.

312-DRY-TOFU – Just Standing There

312-DRY-TOFU - Free-form Question, Comment, Improvisation Voicemail Line

In an effort to revive the ol’ voicemail line, 312-DRY-TOFU (312-379-8638), we decided to dig through some old recordings and post the open ended comments and stories that have
been left on the voicemail line.

Here’s one about a man just standing there and vehicular transportation. The caller gets a bit loud in the end.
