Satuday, Dec 10th, at 3pm sharp at Team Gallery. I (along with Pierre Bismuth) will be premiering new compositions 4 contrabassoon. Hopefully that’s not something you hear everyday. If you are that type, you can download my score here, … ps – I have no idea what it will sound like as it’s up to the performer to figure it out / transcribe, etc, etc. I’m looking forward! They are short, so please come on the dot. C u there

Some new things in this show,…. a bunch of drawings (see above -> Clinton, 2011, pencil on paper, edition of three), a new kinetic sculpture (using a humidifier), some scans of LaCoste shirts, a room of Photoshop gradients, stuff using golf clubs, and a pair of purple Uggs. I am excited about this show aka it should be a mess (but in a good way)……see here for some pics of other stuff in the show and the press release.
Lisson Conversations
October 15th 2011 (Saturday)
12.30 – 1.30pm
RSVP@lissongallery.com
I’ll be sitting down for a hour or so talking to Mike Sperling and Greg Hilty about my work, and the show. Please RSVP.
About a year ago, I started collecting CD’s related (in my mind at least…) to Kelly Clarkson’s Since U Been Gone….so stuff like Ace of Base, Backstreet Boys, Arvil, Ramones, etc, etc. First thing I did was put these Cd’s in a Case Logic binder (see above) ………. Eventually, scans of these CD’s ended up as silkscreens in my recent show Pro Tools at the Whitney (c link 4 video of me talking about this). Anyway, the ORIGINAL CD binder will b in a show coming up called Collect the WWWorld in Italy. There is also a Disk man, for listening as well. Please check it out if u r near.

Contour Biennial
Mechelen, Belgium
August 27th – Oct 30th.
Showing: my guitar hero version of La Monte Young’s Composition #7. Pictured above. One of my favs actually.
See above 4 group show I’m in…. more info. Update, from the press release: Cory Arcangel has possibly the most allusive work in the show, choosing to scent the press release with Lynx body spray. The intervention is both confusing in its physical placement (without reading the press release the source of the scent would remain unknown) and in its context (its presence in an art exhibition being somewhat at odds with the popular nature of its usual distribution).
So here it is, … my version of Paganini’s 5th Caprice. Spliced together from a few hundred guitar instructional videos. Funny cause after I went though all the trouble to edit this together, I found out that Youtube has problems dealing with a steady 30 FPS frame rate, so some frames drop out now and again – my bad. (update: I just tried it on an ipad and it plays 100% good…so who knows). Anyway, it’s all OK, cause you can see the full force 30 FPS floor to ceiling mind bending flicker version right now at the Whitney Museum of American Art in my show Pro Tools, up till Sept 11th!!!
ps – This is the third – and last – in a series of extended form super cuts (ish) youtube music edits I’ve been trying to make the last few years all edited with my custom software Gould Pro, see the second in the series here (cats playing Schoenberg).
Doogle, my Neil Partick Harris only search engine from 2004 has been “canned”. Google depreciated the second API it ran on – which allowed it to pull live search results for Neil Patrick Harris – so I have decided to retire it from pulling LIVE search links. The results it posts now are cached from July, 20, 2011. The project in a way has been “frozen”, and no longer lives as a live web “performance” (if I may). Of course, it still functions, so check it out if you have never seen it.
ps – A note on the web design of the project, … YES, that IS what google used to look like in 2004!
Alright everybody, this is the big one. On August 10th at 7pm @ The Whitney will be: Title TK Meets Danny Goldberg. Here is the blurb:
Title TK is a band consisting of artist/musicians Cory Arcangel, Howie Chen, and Alan Licht. Danny Goldberg is a legendary music mogul. Join them this evening for “Title TK Meets Danny Goldberg,” an unscripted conversation about the twists and turns of music culture over the last fifty years. Goldberg has had a long and distinguished career since the late 1960s, ranging from personal manager, record company president, public relations man, and music journalist. Among other things, he served as Chairman and CEO of Mercury Records Group and of Warner Bros. Records, was Vice President of Led Zeppelin’s Swan Song Records, and managed The Allman Brothers, Sonic Youth, Nirvana, and the Beastie Boys. Title TK is a “banter prone” band which Arcangel, Chen, and Licht describe as “a cross between David Antin and Spinal Tap”.
Ok, in my words,…… Danny Goldberg is a legend and we are going to be chatting with him for an hour! A must see! Don’t miss this! Really, I am SUPER PUMPED about this!!!!!!!! DO NOT MISS THIS. Also, ITS FREEEEEEEEE! Again:
