| Electronic Tattoo |
 |
Tattoos and physical mutilation are amongst
the oldest forms of personal expression and
identity. Subcultures have used tattoos as a
form of self representation; a visual
language communicating personality and
status. Philips Design examined the growing
trend of extreme body adornment like tattoos,
piercing, implants and scarring .
The Electronics Tattoo film expresses the
visual power of sensitive technology applied
to the human body. The film subtly leads the
viewer through the simultaneous emotional and
aesthetic transformations between two lovers.

Optimizing space and its acoustic
consequences, this project brought together
DJ Zash, jazz quartet Mosaic, choreographer
Tamara Roso, cook Henk Beekveld and a spatial
composition for brass orchestra. Several huge
churches in Groningen (almost freezing),
Tilburg and Amsterdam, were each filled with
about 100 musicians and warmed by dancing,
mulled wine and Dutch pancakes. In Tilburg
and Amsterdam a fashion show was added
featuring designs by David Vos, Maria
Driessen and Simon de Boer. In a seemingly
coincidental and self evident way, the parts
melted with each other. My intention was not
to create a night with different acts
succeeding each other to be watched by the
audience, but a landscape of sound inside
which wonderful things were happening. The
dancers were placed among the visitors, who
were free to walk around all the musicians.
There was also dancing to the music of the
DJ, erasing any border between stage and
hall. In this way the audience could really
enter the performance instead of watching it.

Canal Street Blues was composed by King
Oliver.
Joe "King" Oliver, (December 19, 1885 --
April 10, 1938) was a jazz cornet player and
bandleader. He was particularly noted for his
playing style, pioneering the use of mutes.
Also a notable composer, he wrote many tunes
still played regularly, including
"Dippermouth Blues", "Sweet Like This",
"Canal Street Blues", and "Doctor Jazz". Two
of Louis Armstrong's most famous recordings,
"West End Blues" and "Weather Bird," were
Oliver compositions. His influence was such
that Armstrong claimed [1], that 'if it had
not been for Joe Oliver, Jazz would not be
what it is today'.
Joseph Oliver was born in Aben, Louisiana
near Donaldsonville in Ascension Parish, and
moved to New Orleans in his youth. Oliver
played cornet in the New Orleans brass bands
and dance bands and also in the city's
red-light district, Storyville. The band he
co-led with trombonist Kid Ory was considered
New Orleans' hottest and best in the 1910s.
Oliver achieved great popularity in New
Orleans across economic and racial lines, and
was in demand for playing jobs from rough
working class black dance halls to white
society debutante parties.
According to an interview at the Tulane's
Hogan Jazz Archive with Oliver's widow Stella
Oliver, in 1919 a fight broke out at a dance
where Oliver was playing, and the police
arrested Oliver and the band along with the
fighters. This made Oliver decide to leave
the Jim Crow South.
By 1922, after travels in California, Oliver
was the jazz king in Chicago, with King
Oliver and his Creole Jazz Band performing at
the Royal Gardens (later renamed the Lincoln
Gardens). Virtually all the members of this
band went on to notable solo careers.
Personnel were Oliver on cornet, his protegé
Louis Armstrong, second cornet, Baby Dodds,
drums, Johnny Dodds, clarinet, Lil Hardin
(later Armstrong's wife), on piano, Honore
Dutrey on trombone, and Bill Johnson, bass
and banjo. Recordings made by this group in
1923 demonstrated the serious artistry of the
New Orleans style of collective improvisation
or Dixieland music to a wider audience.
In the mid and late 1920s Oliver's band
transformed into a hybrid of the old New
Orleans style jazz band and the nationally
popular larger dance band, and was christened
"King Oliver & His Dixie Syncopators".
Although he suffered from gum disease which
started to diminish his playing abilities,
Oliver remained a popular band leader through
the decade.
Unfortunately, Oliver's business acumen was
less than his musical ability. A succession
of managers stole money from him. He demanded
more money for his band than the Savoy
Ballroom was willing to pay, and lost the
gig. In similar fashion, he lost the chance
for an engagement at New York City's famous
Cotton Club when he held out for more money;
young Duke Ellington took the job and
subsequently catapulted to fame.
The Great Depression was harsh to Oliver; he
lost his life savings when a Chicago bank
collapsed, as he struggled to keep his band
together on a series of hand-to-mouth gigs
until the band broke up and Oliver was
stranded in Savannah, Georgia, where he
worked as a janitor at Wimberly's Recreation
Hall (526-528 West Broad Street) and died in
poverty at a rooming house (508 Montgomery
Street).
