Following nearly a year of monthly installments at the Kava Lounge, Stay Strange presents their first night at East Village venue Space 4 Art (325 15th Street) on Saturday, January 26.
Sam Lopez, who curates the annual San Diego Experimental Guitar Show, bills Stay Strange as "A Night of Outsider Art & Music," but says that the name really applies to the audience.
“I'm suggesting that the audience stay strange, or keep their minds open.”
Which should be no problem with cranium crushing solo artists Bobby Bray (Innerds, The Locust, Holy Molar) and Scott Nielsen at the helm.
Bray’s set “is an effort to simultaneously convey, mystify and demystify a collection of sound phenomena and experimental approaches to sound art. Concepts include Cymatics, Shepard Tone, Gestalt principles, resonate frequencies, DIY electronics, and peak-shift theories.”
Meanwhile, Nielsen – a life-long sound junkie – is returning to San Diego after studying sound design and practicing the sonic arts in other parts of the country with a bag full of goodies.
“Using handmade electronics, electro-acoustic instruments, surplus electronics, outdated stereo gear, electric guitars and various forms of analog processing, Scott has created a sort of one-man improvisational electric orchestra to create spontaneous sonic lamentations for your enjoyment.”
8 p.m. – $5.00
