MICHAEL SCHUMACHER / ANNA HOMLER + JEFF SCHWARTZ

WEST OAKLAND SOUND SERIES

MICHAEL J. SCHUMACHER presents various “immersive/dispersive” fixed media works, composed in New Your for his portable 8 channel system and adapted for Dresher Studio's multi-channel Meyer sound system. Utilizing a radically inclusive palette of sounds, the pieces wrap the audience in webs of potential associations, making listening as vital to the creation of meaning as the act of composing itself.

Performance and visual artist ANNA HOMLER and bassist JEFF SCHWARTZ have collaborated since 2016, working as a duo and in groups with Michael Intriere, David Javelosa, Carole Kim, Jorge Martin, Mason Moy, Charles Sharp, Breeze Smith, and Biliana Voutchkova, appearing at Beyond Baroque, Highways, Open Gate, SASSAS, Soundwaves, 2220 Arts & Archives, Vernacular, Villa Aurora, and in the Los Angeles Contemporary Exhibitions Endurance festival. Coming from diverse creative realms, they find a meeting point through their shared love of improvisation, exploring the evocative power of voice, contrabass, and unexpected sound sources.
