“All Caps No Space” is the concert version of a multimedia work-in-progress. This performance will showcase the culmination of a two-week collaboration and residency at The MilkBar among the talented and unique Addleds musicians Kyle Bruckmann, oboe/English horn; Tony Dryer, double bass; and Jacob Felix Heule, percussion and composer Linda Bouchard.

Using a graphic score, stock and prerecorded material, and live processing, “All Caps No Space” explores the amplified solitude we experience within the barrage of information that besieges us. The creation of the work is motivated by the desire to give a voice to our individual experiences as we witness the world’s tragedies, specifically captured in the written and still images of daily media, and the bias inherent in those choices.

For this performance, Addleds will play as a trio, their koto player, Kanoko Nishi is currently on maternity leave. They are known for their exploration of timbral and textural extremes of distended instrumental technique via improvisation and open-ended compositional strategies.

This concert is made possible in part by a grant from the Zellerbach Family Foundation.

Cost: $15 General, $10 Members
