ch ch check it out. this may be the last zeal gig for the year plus i’ll be vjing for the black chords so you get some extra zealiness for your dollar. dig the facebook event. there’s more to report – new music video, newcastle, tassie, stereosonic. but that will be in the next post. adios for now. Yo Melbournite. Monday 13th of June, 1:30PM @ The Workers Club. Be there! much is happening. earlier this week i released an update to VIZZable, my set of video plugins for ableton live. it’s a big update with fancy new features like GL optimisation and autoconnection(!) the auto connection code is thanks to chris gough from the jitter in live google group. if you’re into video and ableton live and maybe even max/msp, you should join us to help us test and make various awesome things.
if you’re in melbourne, you can see these plugins in action along with some button pressing, singing and jumping around when i play live at plugnplay next thursday the 28th of april at the kent st cafe, 201 smith st, fitzroy. i think i’m playing with vdmokstati, jean poole and others… bit short on details at the moment… but it’ll be awesome, i’m sure. the day after that (friday 29th) i’m playing at the builders arms with time shield, the leafs and sun blindness. i’ll also supplying visuals for the leafs and sun blindess. check the fb event! and the poster:
in other news, the dudes at projuice have thrown up a little write up about me which makes me feel a little warm and fuzzy. projuice is a media creation showing airing on abc at the moment – it’s really great seeing tutorial style programming making the airways especially since it’s pretty much favorite sort of thing to watch on the interwebs. that and videos of baby sloths. in other, other news, i’ve been inspired by this, this and this and have decided to build a midi controller (i’ve undertaken a similar project in the past). i’ll be using the guts from two korg nanokontrols and a usb qwerty keyboard and it should end up looking a bit like this:

Another gig! I’ll be playing the first official zeal gig of the year next wednesday Thursday the 24th at 303 supporting Sydney’s Karoshi. The new audio visual set’s really coming together after last weeks trial run and it should be even better by next wednesday. I’m also scheming some evil live streaming schemes so all of you in internet land can check out the shiny new moving pictures and sounds… more gigs coming. and videos and things. oh, the unbearable intrigue. dig the facebook event P.S. I’ve revamped my facebook page! go like it, eh?
i’m playing this saturday night at the empress with JUNK! and the time shield – and this time not as zeal but as my VJing alter ego lazy laser. i’ll be trailing some new AV material (using VIZZable) and it will be under rehearsed but hopefully interesting. it should be a taste of the future zeal live show. the inimitable junk will be doing some stripped down acoustic or ambient or jazzy versions of their songs and time shield will be there to shield us from the horrors of time (and also make pretty pictures and sounds). back to getting my shit together! go dig the facebook event. Leave a comment gigs, music, video, vj gigs, JUNK!, lazy laser, melbourne, music, space-time, the future, time, VJing, zeal i’ve been wanting to run video plugins since before Max for Live came into existence and Max/MSPs VIZZIE VJ modules seemed perfect as Ableton plugins. so i swapped out all the non-MIDI automatable parts and shoehorned some plugins together. Download: VIZZable Modular VJ plugins for Ableton Live UPDATE! These plugins are completely compatible with the amazing V-module suite by Fabrizio Poce. These two projects have now merged to provide a comprehensive suite of video, effects and real-time graphics tools for Live. If you’d like to become involved in testing and developing these plugins please join us in this google group. Change list

there goes 2010. zeal relocated to melbourne and good things happened! starting with what’s happening right now and working back… i’m currently in adelaide where i’m set up in a bunker, recording new songs for some sort of ep early in the new year.
My album is ranked third on a whothehell.net ”list”. It’s the second time i’ve ever been on a list and it’s still fun. Last week my song “clouds” made a top songs of 2010 podcast on polaroids of androids. it was the first time i’d ever been on a list and it was fun. i played alot of shows this year, all of which had secret words, many of which i can’t remember. some were:
the best gigs of the year were hobart + music = yeah and the gate.
i also had a great time at this is not art where i sat on a panel and talked about axis. i got to make a mixtape sorta thing for a polaroids of androids podcast and inflict my taste in music on the masses. i put out an animated film clip for vigilante with midi and lights: i released my debut album and it landed album of the week on FBi.
it was also uploaded to a russian file-sharing website. it’s been a good year. onwards into a happy and productive twenty-eleven! bob. two or three more zeal shows before the year is out! 1.) Thursday 9th of December at the toff with rush in attack and 8-bit love
2.) Thursday 16th of December @ Pony with Junk, Uncle Chunk and Keith Party
it’s the first time i’ve played either of these venues. also, i might whip out a VJ set at the toff gig… there’ll be one more show in Radelaide before the year is up but i’ll post about that later. until then, enjoy a preview of colourful things in the works… Leave a comment animation, excitement, gigs, music, video, vj gigs, melbourne, music, space-time, VJing, zeal
I’m supporting Parallel Lions next Thursday, November 18 at the Builders Arms. This is a really exciting gig for me, Parallel Lions features Ollie from Art of Fighting who are high on my list of favourite bands ever. And actually, I stole some AoF lyrics and used them as a reoccurring theme in my last album. If you can figure out what that lyrical snippet is email me or leave a comment you’ll win a CD copy of my album. And I’ll be very impressed. Also, go listen to the Parallel Lions record ’cause it’s really great. Working on some new visual material at the moment too, hopefully will have the Zeal live A/V set up and running for next year. see you next thursday! :D :D :D |
