Brainstormers Published in Women's Studies Quarterly

A Brainstormers photo essay is featured in Women's Studies Quarterly's new edition on Activisms (Volume 35, Numbers 3&4). Women's Studies Quarterly is an Educational Project of the Feminist Press at CUNY and the Center for the Study of Women and Society at The Graduate Center, City University of New York.

Chris Forsyth and Nate Wooley's The Duchess of Oysterville CD is out now on the Creative Sources label from Portugal, and available from Evolving Ear. This, the first documentation of their 4-year old collaboration, is a fine bleak beauty, recorded nearly two years ago and happily seeing the light of day now. The piece's 25 minutes pass by like an afternoon nap on a high mountain top or in an abandoned lot, depending on your experience or inclination - take your pick. Intensity, unpredictability, and restraint meet in the hands of two intelligent and idiosyncratic players and categories such as lowercase, noise, electro-acoustic, improvisation and composition become irrelevant.

Both TINY MIX TAPES and THE WIRE reviews reference the artwork on The Duchess of Oysterville.
