Gallery 1412 recently completed our 7th year as one of Seattle's great independent arts spaces.  We see this project as an expression of real grassroots creativity and a way of building, maintaining and sharing resources and infrastructure that are independent of state and commercial interests.  The gallery is currently seeking new members. If you have a need for space on a regular basis (or just for the short-term), please consider becoming part of the 1412 collective. Collective members contribute monthly on a sliding scale for use of the space, and are invited to participate in the decision-making and day-to-day management of the gallery (though none of that is mandatory).  Please check out the membership page for an overview of our rates, and let us know any questions you may have. We'd love to hear what you're working on and what your space and time needs are. Thanks, and take care! -wilson, for the gallery 1412 collective

On a Clear Day facebook CAT JOKES BIO: It all started when Christer rode his mountain bike to California. Tielure and Nik didn't hear from him for weeks, except a single garbled phone call where they heard screams, laughs, and a low voice asking to about Christer's belly button. Tielure and Nik got worried and decided to enlist the aid of Nik's dad, Kent, to drive out to California in a rental PT Cruiser to find Christer once and for all. Along the way, Nik invited a vietnam vet along to ride to the Casino , Tielure cracked thousands of non-sequiters and Kent came up with increasingly creative ways to curse all other drivers on the road. They found Christer playing his ukulele forlornly outside Centralia, WA, and Cat Jokes was born. Cat Jokes facebook JACKIE HELL about Ms. Hell... This sums it up... "I am what you would call "Clexy", that's classy and sexy! And you aint either one, Bitch!" MORE TBA!	facebook event
saturday, january 14 8 pm	Four acoustic/electric improvisors: Cody Yantis - Dan Tyler - Seth Chrisman - Norman Chambers	more info:
	Experiments in drone, imperfection, improv, noise, fragments, decay, texture, american primitive, threshold behavior, field recordings, and so forth. A Coloradan, c. yantis has lived in the Pacific Northwest, New York City, and Dublin. Primarily guitar and/or piano based, his sonic outpourings often employ various other noisemakers, ranging from the saxophone (alto and c melody) to sandpaper to field recordings. Most of these sound projects are instrumental and free-form, and they tend to reside in those grey-areas where tonal elements drift toward noise and/or atonality. c. yantis also writes and works in visual media. Shadowed in the mysteries of Eastern musics (Indian, Indonesian, etc.) while still clinging tightly to the specters of John Fahey and Robbie Basho, Early Atoms (Dan Tyler) continues to bemuse and  befuddle. "Raga Punk" indeed. Widesky is the moniker of Seth Chrisman, experimental musician and multimedia artist from New Mexico. Extended techniques, field recordings, found sound and radio static are employed as source material, woven together through improvisation with DSP chains and looping software to create subtly undulating and centrifugal compositions. Panabrite, the solo electronic project of Seattle-based Norm Chambers, blends the sounds of cosmic electronic music, ambient music, library music, and soundtracks. Haunted underwater VHS science documentaries meet queasy synth detritus amid blips of new age cult training videos; equal parts zoned-out drift and focused micro-melodies. Panabrite has released tapes and CDs on labels such as Digitalis, Hooker Vision, Gift Tapes and Hobo Cult, among others. Early 2012 will see the release of two LPs and a few collaborations long in the works.	codyyantis.com soundcloud.com/early-atoms effervescent-airwaves. blogspot.com panabritesounds.blogspot.com panabrite.bandcamp.com
