SUMMARY:Anti-Twilight Dark Band
DESCRIPTION:An evening of ambient improvisation with Jimmy Crosthwait and Greg Faiers. \n\nAnti-Twilight Dark Band: The intersection of ambient music\, jazz and improvisation. \nThe Anti-Twilight Dark Band features Jimmy Crosthwait on zen chimes and Greg Faiers playing heavily processed guitar. The chimes are a byproduct of Crosthwait’s metal art work. He uses sticks (various metal and wooden implements) to create a musical percussive effect. Jimmy’s zen chimes have a sound all their own but do suggest southeast Asian and African influences. \nGreg’s guitar work / atmospherics is heavily influenced by the likes of Brian Eno\, Robert Fripp\, Daniel Lanois\, David Sylvian\, and others well known in the ambient music world. While some sequences are preconceived\, most of the performances are truly improvised on the fly.

SUMMARY:Up in Arms Collective presents Response 2

Even the nicest guy on late night TV\, Jimmy Fallon\, cannot escape it. So what now? \nResilience. We connect\, organize\, and keep going. Twenty-five artists converge at Crosstown Arts to create original works that explore today’s America.

Art has the power to change us all and transform the world. \nOur responses are candid\, personal\, and as diverse as the artists themselves and explore power\, fear\, truth\, boldness\, self-determination\, activism\, love\, support\, protection\, humor\, and revolution. \nUp in Arms Collective presents RESPONSE 2 on Friday-Sunday\, December 1-3\, 2017\, at Crosstown Arts\, 430 N.
