Karla Grosch's performance of Metalltanz, or "Dance in Metal," exploited the reflective properties of polished metal. The avant-garde performances produced by Oskar Schlemmer's Stage Workshop at the Bauhaus School are seen today as significant forerunners of modern performance art and multimedia theater. | getty.edu

Hi. Um. So...
I've been quietly working on a really, really big, beautiful, maddening, PUNK AS FUCK collaborative DIY art project for about a year now with a whole bunch of people I've known for a loooonnng time and love a whoooole bunch.
I don't just believe in them as musicians. I believe in them as vibrant, brilliant, fiercely kindhearted human beings who make completely unclassifiable music and theatrics and wonderful community happen, and who deserve to be lifted up and celebrated and nurtured.
We FINALLY launched their Kickstarter today, after many months of collective work. Much to my delight, said Kickstarter has already made OVER FIFTY THOUSAND DOLLARS in less than five hours.
Hopefully we will double that amount by the end of the campaign (and THEN some) and my favorite live band of all time, Sleepytime Gorilla Museum, can feed themselves and keep roofs over their heads, their family's heads, their crew's heads, while the band woodsheds and the full team preps to finish and release a studio album and a short film and then (WE HOPE! 100K OR BUST!) pile back into their magical doomsday bus and tour the continental US once again for the first time in 13 years.
I wouldn't be doing this for any other band. Not even one of my own projects. That is how much I love Sleepytime Gorilla Museum, and how deeply I respect what they make and who they ARE.
Go check out the campaign! Pitch in if you're inspired! Share the link far and wide if you care about me EVEN A LITTLE BIT PLZ AND THANK YOU because this job'll earn me a substantial paycheck as well, but ONLY if we're fully funded.
AMBUGATON.

The Berezil theater on tour in Poltava, 1926
Berezil was an avant-garde theater troupe founded by the illustrious Ukrainian director Les Kurbas. The company lasted from 1922 to 1933 until Kurbas` imprisonment and execution. It was then reformed and renamed into the Taras Shevchenko Theater by the government.
