***Inactive Parts (as a release) follows a recent series of self-issued long-format CDs and cassette on Torn Light, but was originally a December 2014 installation at The Trunk Space in Phoenix, AZ consisting of paintings, screen printed Xerox pieces, lathe cut 7" records and two sets of two single-sided acetate LPs which used for a sound installation that could also function has "instruments" for a live performance. Two performances occurred: 12/05/14 (the opening reception, duration: 4 hours), 12/20/14 (for the Gilgongo Records 10 year anniversary event with Sissy Spacek, Stephen Steinbrink, Cherie Cherie and Maniac Cop (Mallevs), duration: approx. 30 minutes). Inactive Parts originally appeared as “New Material," an hour long piece which aired on Ricardo Wang’s “What’s This Called?” on KPSU in Portland, OR in August 2014. The content of that program, the acetate version and this final edition are all slightly different from one another. RIYL: Nurse With Wound, John Cage, Total, Xenakis. LP (edition of 450) includes three prints and two postcards from the installation, CD/digital edition includes "Inactive Portion," a 7" lathe which was part of the installation as well.
