New dance/music video

   I'm an electroacoustic music composer at Simon Fraser University in
Vancouver, BC, and I've recently finished a dance video version of one of
my pieces, for double bass and tape, called Androgyne, Mon Amour, based on
homoerotic poetry by Tennessee Williams (yes, he wrote poetry!).
   The music will be released next month on a new CD called "Twin Souls",
along with other text-based pieces of electroacoustic music, but the video
is available now and is summarized with text and stills on my website (see
below).
   In the past I've done the soundtrack for one of Thecla Schiphorst's
videos, called Threshing, and in general am quite interested in this
artform and its interplay with computer music.
   I invite you to have a look at the website version, and let me know if
you have any reactions, or opportunities for screening it (it's available
in DV and VHS).
