Text of Light
CD STARLIGHT FURNITURE

"Text of Light was formed in 1999 to perform improvised music during screenings of films by Stan Brakhage and other American avant-garde filmmakers from the 1950s and '60s. These should not be considered soundtracks for Brakhage's works, which are intended to be screened 'silently'. Rather, the group uses the films as an element to stimulate improvisation, like an additional player, juxtaposing film and music in a real-time performance mixed-media collage.
On this CD the group, in various combinations, includes: Lee Ranaldo and Alan Licht on guitars and devices; Christian Marclay and DJ Olive on turntables; William Hooker on drums and percussion, and Ulrich Krieger of Zeitkratzer on sax and electronics."

Text of Light Group
052402 echo 4
12" /TABLE OF THE ELEMENTS

"The visionary ensemble Text of Light first gathered in 1999 to perform music to the films of Stan Brakhage and other members of the American Cinema avant garde of the 1950s-60s Brakhage's film Text of Light was the premiere performance and namesake of the group, whose original premise was to improvise to (rather than 'illustrate') works from this under-known era of personal expression and breathtaking visual poetry. The group features Lee Ranaldo and Alan Licht (guitars/devices), Christian Marclay and DJ Olive (turntables), William Hooker (drums/percussion), Ulrich Krieger (sax/electronics), and most recently Tim Barnes (drums/percussion). This beautifully packaged LP is the group's first commercial release, and features original artwork by the late, great Harry Smith."

Lee Ranaldo
Music for Stage and Screen

" Most of the material on this CD is based around recording sessions which included myself, Alan Licht and Christian Marclay. Later on some material was added from sessions with William Hooker and Gunter Muller. I am indebted to all of them for their help with this project. Most of what the final tracks came less from real-time playing but rather more from constructions created in the studio utilizing the various recorded material. During the progress of creating these cues some of these projects overlapped and certain cues were utilized in more than one setting; thematic material shows up in different variants as the projects demanded. My thanks to the directors involved for inviting my music into their works. "
