Got an e-mail from Michael Ferrier of Electropolis today. He has a side project called Improvised Explosive Device, and they have a really fun show coming up this Saturday, April 29 at the Suburban World Theater.

“It’s a coming-together of both the musical and video realms in a truly innovative and improvisatory way,” says Ferrier. “The video artists are able to real-time improvise with imagery along with the musicians (and I must say they are getting better and better at it every day, they blow my mind frequently), and the fluidity of images and music has really inspired a tangibly excited response from the audience.”

I love this kind of collaborative experimentation, and it’s not every city that has artists looking to push the envelope like this. Unfortunately, we’re moving the porridge factory across town this weekend, but I highly encourage you to attend.

NYC experimental jazz/rock quartet Gutbucket will play an opening set as part of their nationwide tour. And opening up the triple bill are local favorites Jelloslave, who just released a new album in mid-Feb.
