Chicago Underground Film Festival afterparty
Friday June 3rd, 2016


'JEFF KOLAR is a sound artist, radio producer, and curator. He is the Founder and Artistic Director of Radius, an experimental radio broadcast platform established in 2010. His work, described as “speaker-shredding” (Half Letter Press), “wonderfully strange” (John Corbett), and “characteristically curious” (Marc Weidenbaum), activates sound in unconventional, temporary, and ephemeral ways using appropriation and remix as a critical practice. His solo and collaborative projects, installations, and public performances often investigate the mundane sonic nuances of everyday electronic devices.'

Live at Danny's Bar (Chicago) for H.o.t.h. [Hot on the heels] which has been going on 9 years now, the night specializes in music that relies heavily on synthesizers and drum machines of the past, without focusing on one specific genre.

DJ Alex — Live Set (1)

Live recording from the 23rd Annual Chicago Underground Film Festival afterparty: 'CREATURES OF THE LAGOON' hosted by GLAMHAG at some random bar north of the Chicago River called Celeste.

Where the whole slander comes together to watch some boys make noise, and watch moss hang on a wall.

'NYC FARM is a concerned-wishy-washy gentle argument between two people who live in the same room- separated by a cubicle wall- forced to hear one another's alarm clocks. consume lots of spinach, Italian bread, frozen veggies. Muting and un_muting grunts, whistles, slaps, curves and clams and strips of ooooooze. Hydrogen peroxide bubble on slow red, Nyc farm is sometimes "noisey" and sometimes "knot". Pressure cooking a cloud, a soft sculpture. It's raining, it's roasted.'

'The shadow figure of Body Boys emerged in late 2013. Creating sounds of a beat driven through the thin drape of these ghostly arrangements. Neither progression nor relapse, just another vane to this feather. With little information—and what’s available seems contradictory—there’s no indication if we’re dealing with a she or a he, a one or a many, a human or a non-localized cybernetic consciousness. That’s probably for the best. These transmissions from nowhere, sent from a body—but whose?—are better for being undisclosed.
Body Boys will not become a household name.'
