[Nettime-bold] Nerve Theory/Syr & Mtl




Le Moyne College's Coyne Performing Arts Center and the LeMoyne
Student Programing Board present:

the American premiere of "THE DISCONNECTION MACHINE"
by Nerve Theory (Tom Sherman and Bernhard Loibner)

Jesuit Theater, Thursday, November 8, 2001, 9:00pm*
Le Moyne College, Syracuse, New York


     Nerve Theory creates VidSonic environments that are
immersive, intense and challenging.  THE DISCONNECTION MACHINE is
a 45-minute performance that fingers global telecommunications as
the trigger of human disconnection.  Disembodied voices, free-
floating images, asynchronous messaging, addiction to amplitude
and data-density, the fragmenting effects of the multi-syndrome,
are distancing people from their sense of place and peace of
mind.

     Tom Sherman (U.S./Canada) and Bernhard Loibner (Austria)
have been recording and performing together since 1993.  As Nerve
Theory they have performed in Paris, Vienna, Linz, Stuttgart and
New York.  Their recordings, video and texts are available at:

     Following this Syracuse appearance, Nerve Theory will
perform THE DISCONNECTION MACHINE at ELEKTRA 2001 in Montreal,
Quebec, November 10, 2001.  The ELEKTRA 2001 festival also
features performances by Oval, Monty Cantsin, Louis-Philippe
Demers, Jean Piche, Yves Daoust, Louis Dufort, and Purform:
