FUTURE_DEATH_TOLL + Little Field presentz:

performance, as embodiment.
capturing the form,

a preserved : physical likeness
a process : remnantz
a performance : resonatez

grab the body.
night has fallen.

Last Thursday of June (6/24/10) 6-10 PM. Little Field is located in the alley between 28th and 29th on Alberta ST.

Mysterious, ubiquitous, and eminently destructive; The agentz of blaze orange known as FUTURE_DEATH_TOLL utilize vintage electronicz such as rotary pwnz, synthesizerz, and drum padz to perform back alley open-heart surgery on their most enthusiastic patientz. The process of rearranging, patching, and modifying audio and video induces intestinal oscillations that could easily jump-start Dr. Frankenstein’s creature.

FUTURE_DEATH_TOLL is, as you know, a throbbing mess of noise that eats technology and shits performance art.

and, this is also our 100th post!
