Discontinued Space: The Cinema of Maya Deren 
An Expanded Cinema Event

Maya Deren (1917 - 1961) is considered one of true pioneers of experimental film yet unlike many of the film makers she influenced ( Jean-Luc Godard, Stanley Kubrick, David Lynch) her work is rarely experienced outside of academic and film school environments. As part of Kirby and Ward’s continuing investigation into the important (and often overlooked) role of women in the history of Contemporary Art  Discontinued Space: The Cinema of Maya Deren will present several of Deren’s short movies with original live scores written by Kirby, Ward and Banks.

Deren employed a vast array of cinematic devices (looping, reversing, overlaying and time manipulation) to create vignettes that focused on graphic and kinetic form rather than straightforward narrative. Conceptually the work examines rhythm, isolation, social constructs, movement and ritual, all of which is underpinned by the notion of the inner world and its disconnection from the space of everyday life. 

It is the conceptual framework of Deren’s cinema that informs the scores produced for this project. Rather than compositions that ‘soundtrack’ the  action and the visual imagery the music reflects and explores Deren’s philosophical beliefs and her desire to immerse her audience in a world that is barely hinted at in everyday life yet sits just under the skin of reality. 

The performance by Kirby, Ward and Banks showcases the 7 major short films Deren produced from 1943 to 1958.

くりかえしくりかえされる歌のふし
眠りにおちておわりをしらず
A song that is repeated many times.
I fell asleep, never know the end of the song.

As the creation of my upcoming album was coming to a close I felt something was missing. For me to release a world percussion album and not have a Japanese inspired track would have been a regretful missed opportunity.
I love Japanese culture, people, and art at a level that is hard to explain in words.

“Shintō” is now 1 of 2 tracks with Japanese instrumentation on my upcoming album “Vibrations Empowered Within”, which is now complete and will be available early October.
This journey to Japan is the closing track, and quite possibly my favorite.
I hope you all enjoy.

Against the sky

I am an amateur musician.
I make music with "Magix Music Maker", because I can play the piano very little.
The singer in my tracks is not a human being. She is a synthesizer software named "Vocaloid Yukari".
