If you're in New York, tonight, January 8.....

You could do far worse than go to the Fridman Gallery, 287 Spring St New York City for the opening event of their New Ear Festival, which goes from Jan 8-16.  Tonight is a "Tribute to Pauline Oliveros," and it includes a massive version of Pauline's "Applebox Orchestra" piece, to which I'm a contributor.

Here's a link to the whole festival:

And from 6PM on, New York time, or 10AM Monday Jan 9, Melbourne time, you can stream the whole event at
