Performance: Improvisation Summit of Portland

I'm performing with dancer Tracy Broyles tonight at the Sandbox Theater.  I've been working with TopShake dance company for a few seasons but this feels like the first time that I am truly improvising with a dancer.  I find myself already over-thinking it all, composing my actions for this massive industrial room as I choose my instruments for the event.   There were lots of drums last night so I've opted for three pitched glass plates for dragging across the concrete floors on long strings, a large cardboard cone with stylus, a roll of paper, a container of sand, 4 stones, and a small amp and mic. 

Here's a link to the event:

And now that it has come and gone...
