Hi and welcome to J Lee Arts and Music: Dateline  9/08/26 It’s been a pretty busy summer so I hope I can remember what’s been happening. Did an interesting art/AV exhibit at the “Garage at 500 Capp St.” aka the garage of the David Ireland House. Had a great collab with Bill Fisher. Built some mobiles and an intereactive sound sculpture using two slinkies loaded with contact pickups, clangy bangy noise makers and motors (as sound source). Will post pics soon. Back east did a show with musician/media artist Jess Rowland in Harlem, NY at Mise En Place. I created a drip syncopated metronome with looper. I got the call when visiting my dad in Massachusetts and had no musical gear on me but did bring mobile making tools. I built an armature and used discarded coffee cups I got from the cafe hanging w dad and friends and one of my moms old cookie tins as the basin for the drip sounds which were amplified by a contact pickup and put  through the cathedral setting on a Boss Reverb pedal. Wrote 4 new songs so that’s what I’m up to now as well as building a few lamps for a David Ireland House fundraiser that’s happening in late October. Warm Spell plays the Make Out Room 9/26 and Medicine for Nightmares 10/16 and Keven Yserloo and I will be playing the Crows Nest (stairwell) at Project Artaud 10/3. I could probably flesh this out a little more but will stop. One more thing, I’m figuring out how to livestream on Sub America and plan on putting together a variety show soon. Will post details. Thanks for checking out the site!
