I’ve only been back in NYC for a couple of days, yet somehow there’s already another packed stretch coming up:
First, I’ll be making my TV Eye debut opening for Christian Stadsgaard’s Vanity Productions project on the 10th as part of a stellar bill with Jackson-Pratt, Imminent Death, & DJ Broken Pillar in the mix; very excited to finally get to play a more aggressive set on the venue’s d&b Audiotechnik system, which I rate as one of the city’s best. Christian’s an old friend (I played a concert in his apartment in København in 2003!); looking forward to catching up.
Then, on the 19th I’ll return to the now-legendary Sunday-night Stereo Mandrax series for a reprise of my duo w/ Chuck Bettis on a, frankly, incredible program pairing David Watson & Bill Nace, the father-daughter project of Borbetomagus‘ Don & Camille Dietrich, & a bonus closing DJ set by Iggor Cavalera (full disclosure: I all but cornered Iggor backstage at a 1993 Sepultura/Biohazard show at The Academy & had that awkward megafan conversation; hope he doesn’t remember!) Chuck & I have a drum-heavy concept that we’ll debut that night; not to be missed!
Finally, the Alpha State residency returns to The Lot on the 20th for a 2-hour B2B session with C. Lavender; expect a mix of obscure synth, film music, and related fields – looking forward to this one! Make sure to book a ticket for Lavender’s hosted screening of all-time favorite Phase IV as part of Alamo Drafthouse’s “Weird Wednesdays” at their DTBK/City Point/Albee Square location.
After all of this I’ll be taking a break to regroup, rebuild, & record for most of May, although there’s plenty more confirmed & on the books/horizon during the summer, including a first-ever duo performance with Chris Goudreau for the just-announced No Fun New Perspectives festival at Roulette, a further appearance w/ Chuck at the Abasement series at Artists Space, a trip to Chicago for the Sound & Gravity festival & another West-Coast jaunt in the Fall including a stop at Indexical – I’m also in the process of hashing out trips to Portland, ME & Newark, DE for performances over the summer; will share details when its all confirmed!
Thanks to everyone that came out last month; amazing to see so many familiar faces both in NYC & in SF & LA! The shows all went super well & recordings are now live on Bandcamp to sate all of the Subscription-Holders there (above).

PS. Just noticed this on YouTube™; back in July 2016 I was approached by New Zealand -based writer, visual artist, musician, and filmmaker Paul Amlehn about contributing to an ongoing cycle of collaborations featuring pretty much a who’s who of contemporary sound-people (Dean Hurley, Christoph De Babalon, BJ Nilsen, Leo Abrahams, Mark Spybey, Ulrich Krieger, etc.) This piece features Pauline Kim Harris & Conrad Harris (aka String Noise) over a deep-bed sub-bass Make Noise tELHARMONIC improvisation around Paul’s “Compositional system, catalyst texts and vocals for music creation, editing, mixing, production” involving Franz Kafka’s Die Verwandlung (The Metamorphosis); enjoy!
