LITTORAL: Editions P.O.L & Dalkey Archive Press
France has always been the home to innovative writing, and the new wave of French writers is as shockingly unconventional as the Surrealists or New Novelists were in their day. Dalkey Archive’s Review of Contemporary Fiction has just published an issue dedicated to the French publishing house at the crest of this wave: Editions P.O.L.
A roundtable discussion of the new French writing will include John O’Brien (founder of Dalkey Archive Press), and Paul Otchakovsky-Laurens (founder of Editions P.O.L), as well as writers Mark Polizzotti and Brian Evenson and Brooklyn Academy of Music Humanities Manager Violaine Huisman.
ISSUE’s Littoral Series is made possible, in part, through generous support from The Casement Fund and the New York State Council on the Arts, celebrating 50 years of building strong, creative communities in New York’s 62 counties.

Alexander Hacke & Danielle de Picciotto present new album Hitman's Heel
Alexander Hacke & Danielle de Picciottocombine experimental film with music drawn from gypsy rolls, Italo-Western piano tunes, loops and Autoharp picking. They have worked in Berlin since the eighties, and tour the world regularly. This album, Hitman’s Heel, celebrates the restless life of a nomad, with a performance accompanied by de Picciotto’s visuals. Pete Simonelli will kick off the night by reading a few of his poems.
1.27 @ 8 pm
Tom Hamilton/Susan Alcorn/Steve Swell Trio + Gunn-Truscinski Duo
Trombonist Steve Swell brings together a new trio with pedal steel guitarist Susan Alcorn and electronic improviser Tom Hamilton. DrummerJohn Truscinski and guitarist Steve Gunn have played together over a span of years in various formations and projects, influenced by the blues, raga, and the New York underground scene.
1.29 @ 8 pm
No Mor Musik + The Rat Bastard Experience
The Rat Bastard Experience is led by free jazz drummer Marc Edwards (Cecil Taylor Unit), who appears here with a motley crew of free jazz “anti-fame nihilists.” NO MOR MUSIK’spunk jazz fuses the highest and lowest brows with no intermediary. Weasel Walter’s 6-string bass and Nondor Nevai’s drumming are “energy in the wild.”
1.30 @ 8 pm
Share: free audio & video jam
Sunday nights at ISSUE are host to a come-one-come-all group of musicians and video artists, collaborating in a jam called SHARE. Those who work with audio need only to bring an instrument or other sound-producing device and an XLR, RCA, or 1/4" cable (if amplified). The video jam is a multi-user live synthesis, in which participants are able to jointly compose the visual output. Bring your laptop/camera/Amiga and VGA, S-Video, or RCA cables.

Emerging Artist Commission: Michelle Nagai presents Tree Set
ISSUE is proud to present the first in a series of Emerging Artist Commissions. There will be eight of these free performances throughout the year, highlighting experimental artists in the early stages of their career. A Q&A for ISSUE Project Room Members will follow the concert, led by Anne Hege.
Michelle Nagai presents new work for the MARtLET, a handsome, wearable hunk of tree bark that’s been fitted with light-sensing circuitry, machine learning software and sound synthesis algorithms. Responding to the ambient light in spaces, and the slightest hand and body movements, the MARtLET looks, listens, and thinks before she speaks. Just as nature intended.
Michelle Nagai’s new work is commissioned as part of ISSUE Project Room’s Emerging Artists Commission and is made possible, in part, through generous support from: the Greenwall Foundation; the Suzanne Fiol Memorial Fund; with public funds from the New York State Council on the Arts, a state agency; and by public funds from the New York City Department of Cultural Affairs in partnership with the City Council.
