Nora Keyes Performs live score to short film she made "Crystal Flame" at solo Art Exhibit "Luminosities of the Inner Eye" Joining is & on tour are :
Rubber (0) Cement (Grux of Caroliner Rainbow) , Sigtyggur Berg Sigmarsson(Iceland)
Rubber O Cement is led by Bay Area avant-gardists Caroliner (aka Caroliner Rainbow), whose severely warped Americana bore a faint resemblance to the severely warped electronic noise of its offspring. Normally a trio led by enigmatic Caroliner frontman Grux (who founded the group during Caroliner's late-'90s hiatus), Rubber O Cement was most noted for its surreal stage shows, in which the bandmembers used cardboard, foam, and tin foil to dress up as robots and monsters, and cavorted around the stage in front of a large cardboard computer. Set against this backdrop, their equally oddball music relied chiefly on vintage analog synths, low-budget effects, and skronky noise guitar. Rubber O Cement shared Caroliner's penchant for found-object packaging; their debut album, 2002's High Speed Electronic Cardboard, was released in a limited edition by the Toyo label and packaged in an envelope stuffed inside different individual issues of Clive Barker's Hellraiser comic book. The group also cut a split release with Panicsville, and issued several CD-ROM recordings (again in tandem with comic books), among them Thylakoid Hubcaps N' Chloroblast! and Heated Expression of the Crawlycule.

Working on whatever spectrum has dada situation-ey performance
