SUMMARY:Nat Evans: Flyover Country
DESCRIPTION:Join us for an evening of immersive storytelling\, soundscapes\, and imagery from gifted composer\, Nat Evans. \nThe Grocery 3001 21st Ave S\, Seattle 98144\nTwo evenings: Saturday May 19 and Sunday May 20\nShow: 8:00pm / Doors 7:30 \nTickets are sliding scale $5 – $20\, all proceeds go to the artist\nhttps://www.eventbrite.com/e/nat-evans-flyover-country-tickets-45507219318 \nFrom the artist:\nFlyover Country is a multi-layered composition picking apart stories and mythologies of Nat Evans’ family accompanied by music\, visuals and electronics.  \nIn the summer of 2017\, I discovered a huge wealth of family history – family trees extending back to the 1600s\, stories that had been written down\, and an archive of hundreds of photographs dating back to the 1870s. As I began to assemble a history of my family and our westward expansion\, I concurrently took a deep look at indigenous cultures of North America\, and traveled to different places that had similar ecological features to places my family settled\, such as the oceanic tallgrass prairie in the Flint Hills of Kansas.  \nThe deeper I looked at the wider history of things\, the more the holes in the mythology of my family manifested themselves. Timelines of movement matched up with historical genocide at the hands of white citizen militias\, treaties with the Lakota broken as millions of bison were slaughtered for the market hunt and white settlers flooded the sacred Black Hills of South Dakota to mine for gold\, and unsustainable farming practices led to tilled under grasslands from Illinois to New Mexico\, precipitating the Dust Bowl.  \nIn Flyover Country\, a series of stories about my family\, the United States\, and strange dreams had while traveling are woven together in this performance with music\, archival family images\, drawings\, and short films from site visits. \n \nflyover country trailer from Nat Evans on Vimeo. \nAbout the artist \nNat Evans is a composer and artist based in Seattle\, Washington. His interdisciplinary works range from site-specific events and installations to chamber music\, scores for dance and film\, conceptual works based in ecology and social practice\, to meditations on everyday life. \nHis work is regularly presented across the United States\, and has also been presented in Europe\, South America\, Australia and China. Evans has received numerous commissions including The Henry\, Odeon Quartet\, San Francisco MOMA\, Seattle Art Museum\, The City of Tomorrow\, Portland Cello Project\, ALL RISE\, The Box Is Empty\, and the Indianapolis Museum of Art\, among others. \nWorks and events by Evans have been featured on WNYC’s New Sounds and BBC3\, as well as in LA Weekly\, WIRED\, The New York Times\, Tiny Mix Tapes\, The Believer and numerous other publications. His work has appeared at galleries such as Interstitial\, SOIL\, The Frye Art Museum\, Greg Kucera\, as well as Mediate Art Soundwave Biennial\, Aqua Art Miami\, NEPO 5k\, and other festivals. \nHe studied music at Butler University with Michael Schelle\, Craig Hetrick and Frank Felice. \nhttp://natevansmusic.com

SUMMARY:The Academy of Reason & Wonder Inquiry No. 4: Exploring Other Minds
DESCRIPTION:This evening is a rare treat\, and will be our last instance of The Academy of Reason & Wonder in 2018\, since we will close for renovations June through December. \nJoin us for lectures from scholars who are exploring the intelligence of other creatures–from the simplest hydra to our neighborhood crows. \nThe Grocery 3001 21st Ave S Seattle 98144\nSunday May 6\nProgram at 8:00pm / Doors at 7:30pm \nTwo thirty-minute lectures followed by Q&A\, and mingling with refreshments to discuss the ideas. \nTickets are sliding scale\, proceeds go to the speakers and supporting the series:\nhttps://www.eventbrite.com/e/the-academy-of-reason-wonder-inquiry-no-4-exploring-other-minds-tickets-45168306621 \nDecoding crow vocal communication\nDr. Doug Wacker\, Andrea Bilotta\, and Jeremy Granville Newton\nAmerican crows (Corvus brachyrhynchos) can recognize faces\, solve multifaceted puzzles\, and form strong social bonds.  As such\, many consider them to be a highly intelligent and interesting species.  They make a multitude of vocalizations\, the function of which are not all well understood.  Our research group is trying to decode the meaning of crow calls using remote recording techniques and the audio playback of constructed calls to free-living crows. \nEmbodied intelligence: how biology computes\nDr. Adrienne Fairhall\nWhile we are still far from understanding the complexities of human thought\, a number of the “primitives” of our mental processes are present in even very simple creatures. We will explore how even primitive organisms process and store information and use it to make apparently purposeful decisions. When do these abilities lead to a sense of self? \nAbout the speakers \nDr. Adrienne Fairhall\, Fairhall Computational Neuroscience Lab UW\nAdrienne’s background is in theoretical physics\, with degrees from the Australian National University and the Weizmann Institute in Israel. Since graduating\, her research program has focused on applying physics and mathematical ideas to understand neural function. As a faculty member in UW’s Department of Physiology and Biophysics since 2004\, she has collaborated on the neuroscience of animal sensation and behavior including the rules of motion detection\, insect foraging and flight control\, birdsong\, and navigation in virtual reality environments.\nhttps://fairhalllab.com/ \nDr. Doug Wacker\, Assistant Professor of Animal Behavior\, UW Bothell\nDr. Wacker is interested in the social behavior and communication of wild birds.  He received his PhD in Neurobiology and Behavior from the University of Washington in Seattle.  He now works at UW Bothell\, home to a vibrant undergraduate community and a large communal crow roost numbering\, at its height\, about 16000 birds each night.\nhttps://www.uwb.edu/biological-sciences/faculty/biology/dwacker \nAndrea Bilotta\, undergraduate researcher\, Community Psychology\, UW Bothell\nAndrea is interested in studying the social behaviors of wildlife through non-invasive research practices. She is currently working with the large communal roost of crows on the University of Washington Bothell’s wetlands\, and will be furthering her experience this summer as an intern for the Sarvey Wildlife Care Center. \nJeremy Granville Newton\, undergraduate researcher\, Applied Computing\, UW Bothell\nJeremy is interested in the intersections of computing\, behavior\, and philosophy. \n  \nThe Academy of Reason & Wonder seeks to fan the flames of inspiration to generate positive energy in ourselves\, our communities\, and\, by extension\, our world. It brings people together to educate\, inspire\, and encourage the pursuit of reason. Ignite your own curiosity and wonder through personal perspectives on topics such as history\, science\, language\, philosophy\, music theory\, or wonders of the natural world. \nThe Academy of Reason & Wonder is a lecture series that occurs on a nearly monthly basis at The Grocery\, a creative space on North Beacon Hill.

SUMMARY:Kristina Dillard's work in progress: The Literary Dances
DESCRIPTION:March 24 and 25th at The Grocery!\nWe are proud to present two evenings of dance by Kristina Dillard\, all works in progress centered on pieces of literature. \nPlease note: seating is on the floor\, with some seating in chairs. Let us know if you need to reserve a chair. \nThe Literary Dances are a study into creating painterly movement portraits. Choreographer Kristina Dillard uses spoken word paired with movement to create audio-visual vignettes of texts excerpted from literature. As the dancers experience dynamic changes in movement\, their voices respond sympathetically\, enhancing the reality of their body’s experience. Ever looking for ways to create layers of richly visual impact\, Dillard explores sequential movement\, highly crafted choreographic phrasing\, rich costuming\, and additional luscious ways to embellish the dancers and performance space. Dillard often takes note of the literature’s composition\, mirroring the structure of the text in the construct of the dance. In this rendition\, we are excited to collaborate with Janet Galore to create additional visual impact with video projection. \n(photo by Tim Summers) \nWith performers Kristina Dillard\, Tesee George\, Wendy Samuels\, Lis Swihart\, and special guests Michelle Rauschenberg and Annette LeFevbre who will do a reading of text intended for a new section. \nDoors at 7:30p \n8:00p – 9:00p literary dances and spoken word\n9:00p – 9:30p discussion with the artist\, Q & A\n9:30p – 10:00p conversation and refreshments \nAll ticket sales go to the artists – sliding scale $5 – $30\nAt eventbrite: https://www.eventbrite.com/e/kristina-dillards-work-in-progress-the-literary-dances-tickets-43533607191 \nWorks featured include: \nRuby\nIn Ruby\, Dillard reflects on Flannery O’Connor’s formalism\, and the choreographic crafting is in direct response to the structure of the short story. Images of gruesome farm equipment accidents and unborn children floating in space\, combined with uncomfortable movement\, heavy breathing\, and Wendy Samuels’ authentic drawl\, come together in a creepy performance heavily steeped in southern irony. \nDiebenkorn\nText by Tom Robbins describes a woman in the throes of creative process. The text describes the colors she uses\, and free association in response to each one. Tesee George’s body becomes the paint and the painting “the choreography here plays with the balance between large\, space-eating phrases and calligraphic details.” (Sandra Kurtz the Weekly 2004) \nBud\nThis languorous solo responds to Gabriel Garcia Marquez’s magical realism in an excerpt from Love in the Time of Cholera. Describing the ecstasy\, intense feeling\, pain\, and even sickness of two young people falling in love. Everything is rose petal pink\, Dillard’s body\, her gown\, her thoughts. She rolls and undulates\, leaps briefly in excitement\, as her body explores the fine line between passion and illness. \nAdditional spoken word text will be presented with very short studies\, their possibilities\, and discussion with the audience. \nAbout the artist\nKristina Dillard has been performing\, creating\, and producing work in Seattle since 1993. She is the artistic director of the Big Red Dance Company\, receiving grants from the Seattle Arts Commission\, the Washington State Arts Commission\, and the Allied Arts Foundation. Her choreography for Big Red Dance has been presented by Velocity\, On the Boards\, Seattle Center\, and 10 Tiny Dances in Seattle and Portland. Kristina currently performs with Lucia Neare’s Theatrical Wonders\, and is working on several dance films with long time collaborator David Beckley. She will be presenting an evening length work about cake\, with courses of cake\, at Cafe Nordo in August. Dillard has spent the last eighteen years trying to find ways to make her work more “painterly”. She holds a BFA in Dance from Cornish College of the Arts\, and an MFA in Choreography from Sarah Lawrence College.\nhttps://www.instagram.com/kissmecakekristina/

SUMMARY:Kristina Dillard's work in progress: The Literary Dances
DESCRIPTION:March 24 and 25th at The Grocery!\nWe are proud to present two evenings of dance by Kristina Dillard\, all works in progress centered on pieces of literature. \nPlease note: seating is on the floor\, with some seating in chairs. Let us know if you need to reserve a chair. \nThe Literary Dances are a study into creating painterly movement portraits. Choreographer Kristina Dillard uses spoken word paired with movement to create audio-visual vignettes of texts excerpted from literature. As the dancers experience dynamic changes in movement\, their voices respond sympathetically\, enhancing the reality of their body’s experience. Ever looking for ways to create layers of richly visual impact\, Dillard explores sequential movement\, highly crafted choreographic phrasing\, rich costuming\, and additional luscious ways to embellish the dancers and performance space. Dillard often takes note of the literature’s composition\, mirroring the structure of the text in the construct of the dance. In this rendition\, we are excited to collaborate with Janet Galore to create additional visual impact with video projection. \n(photo by Tim Summers) \nWith performers Kristina Dillard\, Tesee George\, Wendy Samuels\, Lis Swihart\, and special guests Michelle Rauschenberg and Annette LeFevbre who will do a reading of text intended for a new section. \nDoors at 7:30p \n8:00p – 9:00p literary dances and spoken word\n9:00p – 9:30p discussion with the artist\, Q & A\n9:30p – 10:00p conversation and refreshments \nAll ticket sales go to the artists – sliding scale $5 – $30\nAt eventbrite: https://www.eventbrite.com/e/kristina-dillards-work-in-progress-the-literary-dances-tickets-43533607191 \nWorks featured include: \nRuby\nIn Ruby\, Dillard reflects on Flannery O’Connor’s formalism\, and the choreographic crafting is in direct response to the structure of the short story. Images of gruesome farm equipment accidents and unborn children floating in space\, combined with uncomfortable movement\, heavy breathing\, and Wendy Samuels’ authentic drawl\, come together in a creepy performance heavily steeped in southern irony. \nDiebenkorn\nText by Tom Robbins describes a woman in the throes of creative process. The text describes the colors she uses\, and free association in response to each one. Tesee George’s body becomes the paint and the painting “the choreography here plays with the balance between large\, space-eating phrases and calligraphic details.” (Sandra Kurtz the Weekly 2004) \nBud\nThis languorous solo responds to Gabriel Garcia Marquez’s magical realism in an excerpt from Love in the Time of Cholera. Describing the ecstasy\, intense feeling\, pain\, and even sickness of two young people falling in love. Everything is rose petal pink\, Dillard’s body\, her gown\, her thoughts. She rolls and undulates\, leaps briefly in excitement\, as her body explores the fine line between passion and illness. \nAdditional spoken word text will be presented with very short studies\, their possibilities\, and discussion with the audience. \nAbout the artist\nKristina Dillard has been performing\, creating\, and producing work in Seattle since 1993. She is the artistic director of the Big Red Dance Company\, receiving grants from the Seattle Arts Commission\, the Washington State Arts Commission\, and the Allied Arts Foundation. Her choreography for Big Red Dance has been presented by Velocity\, On the Boards\, Seattle Center\, and 10 Tiny Dances in Seattle and Portland. Kristina currently performs with Lucia Neare’s Theatrical Wonders\, and is working on several dance films with long time collaborator David Beckley. She will be presenting an evening length work about cake\, with courses of cake\, at Cafe Nordo in August. Dillard has spent the last eighteen years trying to find ways to make her work more “painterly”. She holds a BFA in Dance from Cornish College of the Arts\, and an MFA in Choreography from Sarah Lawrence College.\nhttps://www.instagram.com/kissmecakekristina/

SUMMARY:Academy of Reason & Wonder Inquiry No. 2 - Story:History:Herstory
DESCRIPTION:Please join us for the second in our lecture series\, The Academy of Reason & Wonder\, designed to ignite your curiosity and pursuit of understanding. \nStory : History : Herstory features lectures by Tessa Hulls and Johan Liedgren\, who will explore the anatomy of storytelling\, stories as tricksters that serve in our evolution and survival\, stories of strong and independent women in the early 1900’s who made their own ways and refused to play the roles they were given. \nSunday March 4\, 7:30 – 10:30PM\nThe Grocery\, 3001 21st Ave S\, Seattle WA 98144 \nDoors at 7:00p\nSliding scale donation $5 – $20\nProceeds go to speakers\, artists\, and supporting this series. \n7:30pm Johan Liedgren\nWhat Stories Want From Us\nUsing the story of “The Garden of Eden” as an example\, Johan explores the elements that are required to make a story a story\, to be worth telling and being heard. We will look at why they have earned the part they play; what they want and from us and what they offer in return. With that we can look to create narratives for ourselves\, create meaning and direction without rigidity. Story serves us as a trickster\, always looking to push us to re-contextualize\, question\, play and imagine the new\, so we can look at the world not as static\, but as the beginning of another story—a story that is both surprising and an eternal source of hope. \n8:00pm Tessa Hulls\nFucking the Patriarchy at the Turn of the Century: Strong Women in the Early 1900’s\nWomen have been refusing to play nice with society’s rules since the dawn of human history\, but it was only in the early 1900’s that photographic technology started providing visual evidence of these strong women and their exploits. Through a series of historical photographs and illustrations\, this talk will showcase the extraordinary lives of little-known female survivalists\, circus performers\, prospectors\, mountaineers\, cyclists\, and general badasses who adamantly refused to do what was expected of ladies of their era. \n8:30 – 10:30pm\nPlease stay for formal Q & A with Johan and Tessa\, as well as informal discussion\, conversation\, and refreshments. \nAbout the presenters \nJohan Liedgren is a Swedish writer\, filmmaker\, and business consultant based in Seattle. His creative work includes lead writer for Europe’s political drama-series “The Commission” (akin to West-Wing)\, a long and respectful list of commercials\, music videos and feature films. He recently completed a “Feliniesque” rap-video and the feature film: “The Very Private Work of Sister K”\, and is currently developing three new feature films and an original drama series for television\, in production by BBC One in the UK. His work has been recognized with awards from Sundance\, Slamdance\, the Museum of Television and Film as well as a long list of festivals from around the world. www.liedgren.com \nTessa Hulls is a multidisciplinary artist/writer/adventurer who is fascinated by the concept of home. As the daughter of two first-generation immigrants who landed in a tiny town of 350 people\, she spent her formative years reading her way through the public library and roaming alone through the hills\, and this love of solitude\, research\, and forward motion informs much of her creative practice. Her restlessness has joyously dragged her across all seven continents\, and she lives a semi-nomadic seasonal lifestyle that allows her to conduct creative field research in exceedingly remote places. She is currently working on a nonfiction graphic novel exploring loss of language\, cultural divides\, immigration\, mental illness\, mixed race identity\, mother-daughter relationships\, and the American fascination with the frontier as told through the life story of her maternal grandmother\, Sun Yi.

SUMMARY:Degenerate Art Ensemble with Mizu Desierto
DESCRIPTION:Tickets:\nhttps://www.eventbrite.com/e/degenerate-art-ensemble-and-mizu-desierto-at-the-grocery-tickets-37014905579  \nThe Grocery is proud to host two evenings of performance by Degenerate Art Ensemble and Mizu Desierto. \nThis is an intimate event where the audience is immersed in movement\, live music and dance. \nWhen: Sat Sept 23 and Sun Sept 24. (Show at 8:00pm\, doors at 7:00pm)\nWhere: The Grocery\, 3001 21st Ave S\, Seattle 98144\nTickets: Sliding scale\, $5 – $30. \nAll proceeds go to the artists and to support the performance costs. \nPlease note that we have limited space\, and tickets are required to reserve a spot. There will be some chair seating\, and some floor seating. \nProgram for both evenings: \nMizu Desiertopresents Matriarch\, a dance and film meditation on death and dying\, forgotten and future lineages\, the andro-gene and bees. Sometimes only through the loss of the matriarch\, can we realize that we must become our own queen. \nDegenerate Art Ensemble presents Diphylleia Grayi (Skeleton Flower)\, a fantastical\, semi-autobiographical exploration of a creative person’s struggle with depression\, identity and and the awakening of feminine power where healing and transformation are fuelled by the secret medicine of fairy tales. The work is an immersive stage performance weaving together live music and song\, visceral solo dance and storytelling ritual. Haruko Crow Nishimura and Joshua Kohl will perform the live music\, dance and song elements in this rare\, raw and intimate performance setting. \nABOUT THE ARTISTS \nHaruko Crow Nishimura is a choreographer\, dancer and vocalist and is artistic-director of Seattle’s Degenerate Art Ensemble (DAE). She strives to discover how art can create deeper connections and awakenings. The company creates performance work infused with the energy of live music and driven by her own style of visceral movement theater and dance drawing on her background in butoh and physical theater. Her vocal style ranges from emotive melodic crooning to searing punk. Her work with the ensemble has been featured in 10 countries presenting large scale experimental dance and theater projects\, concerts\, site-transforming spectacles and ongoing public experimentations. She was commissioned along with DAE by director Robert Wilson to interpret his work Einstein on the Beach and undertook a massive site specific collaboration for NEXT50 World’s Fair Anniversary with Olson Kundig Architects in 2012. She danced as a soloist with the Kronos Quartet in 2013 and again as part of the 95 rituals – Anna Halprin’s 95th birthday anniversary at the Yerba Buena Center for the Arts in 2015. She was the recipient of a 2012 Guggenheim Fellowship. In addition to her work with DAE\, Nishimura is constantly collaborating with both local and international artists to push the boundaries of her medium dancing in the street\, creating rituals for strangers in public spaces and hosting artist salons in her home cultivating a community space for artists to share their work. \nJoshua Kohl is a composer and conductor and is the co-director of the Seattle based multi­art group Degenerate Art Ensemble (DAE). He has performed with the group throughout the United States\, and ten countries of Western and Eastern Europe. He was commissioned in 2016 to compose an orchestral work by the legendary Czech rock band Uz Jsme Doma and conducted the work in Prague with the South Czech Philharmonic Orchestra. The work will tour the US in 2018. His score for filmmaker Wes Hurley’s Potato Dreams is currently screening at film festivals internationally. His and DAE’s work Red Shoes was awarded a Music Theatre Now Award from the International Theatre Institute awarded at the Swedish Biennale of Performing Arts in 2013.

SUMMARY:Degenerate Art Ensemble with Mizu Desierto
DESCRIPTION:Tickets:\nhttps://www.eventbrite.com/e/degenerate-art-ensemble-and-mizu-desierto-at-the-grocery-tickets-37014905579  \nThe Grocery is proud to host two evenings of performance by Degenerate Art Ensemble and Mizu Desierto. \nThis is an intimate event where the audience is immersed in movement\, live music and dance. \nWhen: Sat Sept 23 and Sun Sept 24. (Show at 8:00pm\, doors at 7:00pm)\nWhere: The Grocery\, 3001 21st Ave S\, Seattle 98144\nTickets: Sliding scale\, $5 – $30. \nAll proceeds go to the artists and to support the performance costs. \nPlease note that we have limited space\, and tickets are required to reserve a spot. There will be some chair seating\, and some floor seating. \nProgram for both evenings: \nMizu Desiertopresents Matriarch\, a dance and film meditation on death and dying\, forgotten and future lineages\, the andro-gene and bees. Sometimes only through the loss of the matriarch\, can we realize that we must become our own queen. \nDegenerate Art Ensemble presents Diphylleia Grayi (Skeleton Flower)\, a fantastical\, semi-autobiographical exploration of a creative person’s struggle with depression\, identity and and the awakening of feminine power where healing and transformation are fuelled by the secret medicine of fairy tales. The work is an immersive stage performance weaving together live music and song\, visceral solo dance and storytelling ritual. Haruko Crow Nishimura and Joshua Kohl will perform the live music\, dance and song elements in this rare\, raw and intimate performance setting. \nABOUT THE ARTISTS \nHaruko Crow Nishimura is a choreographer\, dancer and vocalist and is artistic-director of Seattle’s Degenerate Art Ensemble (DAE). She strives to discover how art can create deeper connections and awakenings. The company creates performance work infused with the energy of live music and driven by her own style of visceral movement theater and dance drawing on her background in butoh and physical theater. Her vocal style ranges from emotive melodic crooning to searing punk. Her work with the ensemble has been featured in 10 countries presenting large scale experimental dance and theater projects\, concerts\, site-transforming spectacles and ongoing public experimentations. She was commissioned along with DAE by director Robert Wilson to interpret his work Einstein on the Beach and undertook a massive site specific collaboration for NEXT50 World’s Fair Anniversary with Olson Kundig Architects in 2012. She danced as a soloist with the Kronos Quartet in 2013 and again as part of the 95 rituals – Anna Halprin’s 95th birthday anniversary at the Yerba Buena Center for the Arts in 2015. She was the recipient of a 2012 Guggenheim Fellowship. In addition to her work with DAE\, Nishimura is constantly collaborating with both local and international artists to push the boundaries of her medium dancing in the street\, creating rituals for strangers in public spaces and hosting artist salons in her home cultivating a community space for artists to share their work. \nJoshua Kohl is a composer and conductor and is the co-director of the Seattle based multi­art group Degenerate Art Ensemble (DAE). He has performed with the group throughout the United States\, and ten countries of Western and Eastern Europe. He was commissioned in 2016 to compose an orchestral work by the legendary Czech rock band Uz Jsme Doma and conducted the work in Prague with the South Czech Philharmonic Orchestra. The work will tour the US in 2018. His score for filmmaker Wes Hurley’s Potato Dreams is currently screening at film festivals internationally. His and DAE’s work Red Shoes was awarded a Music Theatre Now Award from the International Theatre Institute awarded at the Swedish Biennale of Performing Arts in 2013. His original composition was performed by the Kronos Quartet in 2012 and 2015. In 2012 he conducted the music of fellow DAE composer Jherek Bischoff at the Lincoln Center with vocalist David Byrne. \nhttp://www.degenerateartensemble.com/press/ \nMizu Desierto is a dance-theatre artist\, artistic director and farmer whose life=art explores themes of feminism\, queerness\, playful social deviance and regenerative land/culture.
