Paul McCarthy began collaborating with the LAFMS in the late 70\u2019s and has been an integral participating supporter since the mid 90\u2019s.<\/p>\n<div class=\"rl-gallery-container rl-loading\" id=\"rl-gallery-container-2\" data-gallery_id=\"5668\"> <div class=\"rl-gallery rl-basicgrid-gallery \" id=\"rl-gallery-2\" data-gallery_no=\"2\"> <div class=\"rl-gallery-item\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ronaldcornelissen.com\/rcblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/05\/Recchion_Nilsen.jpg\" title=\"Recchion_Nilsen\" data-rl_title=\"Recchion_Nilsen\" class=\"rl-gallery-link\" data-rl_caption=\"\" data-rel=\"lightbox-gallery-2\" data-magnific_type=\"gallery\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ronaldcornelissen.com\/rcblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/05\/Recchion_Nilsen-120x80.jpg\" width=\"120\" height=\"80\" alt=\"\" \/><\/a><\/div><div class=\"rl-gallery-item\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ronaldcornelissen.com\/rcblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/05\/Nilsen.jpg\" title=\"Nilsen\" data-rl_title=\"Nilsen\" class=\"rl-gallery-link\" data-rl_caption=\"\" data-rel=\"lightbox-gallery-2\" data-magnific_type=\"gallery\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ronaldcornelissen.com\/rcblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/05\/Nilsen-67x100.jpg\" width=\"67\" height=\"100\" alt=\"\" \/><\/a><\/div><div class=\"rl-gallery-item\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ronaldcornelissen.com\/rcblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/05\/McCarthy.jpg\" title=\"McCarthy\" data-rl_title=\"McCarthy\" class=\"rl-gallery-link\" data-rl_caption=\"\" data-rel=\"lightbox-gallery-2\" data-magnific_type=\"gallery\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ronaldcornelissen.com\/rcblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/05\/McCarthy-120x80.jpg\" width=\"120\" height=\"80\" alt=\"\" \/><\/a><\/div><div class=\"rl-gallery-item\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ronaldcornelissen.com\/rcblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/05\/Potts.jpg\" title=\"Potts\" data-rl_title=\"Potts\" class=\"rl-gallery-link\" data-rl_caption=\"\" data-rel=\"lightbox-gallery-2\" data-magnific_type=\"gallery\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ronaldcornelissen.com\/rcblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/05\/Potts-120x80.jpg\" width=\"120\" height=\"80\" alt=\"\" \/><\/a><\/div> <\/div> <\/div>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Formed in 1994, Extended Organ produce a dynamic otherworldly ambience that can be simultaneously hilarious and ominously frightening. Overlaying the carpet of sound produced by Joe Potts and his self-engineered drone instrument the \u201cChopped Optigan\u201d is Paul McCarthy\u2019s vocal and guitar improvisations channeled and processed by Alex Stevens. Tom Recchion, simultaneously renowned as an inventor of crude homemade instruments and as an innovative composer of electronic and tape music, performs an array of sounds blending lush beauty and horror sensibility into the matrix. An antique Rheem Mark 7 organ is layered in by Fredrik Nilsen along with electronic sound and the aforementioned recordings provided by Mike Kelley. Mike Kelley\u2019s varied array of sounds are unprocessed mouth generated tugs, gurgles and bubbling masterfully recorded in 2010 by Scott Benzel.<\/p>\n<div class=\"rl-gallery-container rl-loading\" id=\"rl-gallery-container-3\" data-gallery_id=\"5669\"> <div class=\"rl-gallery rl-basicgrid-gallery \" id=\"rl-gallery-3\" data-gallery_no=\"3\"> <div class=\"rl-gallery-item\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ronaldcornelissen.com\/rcblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/05\/Davin_Warn.jpg\" title=\"Davin_Warn\" data-rl_title=\"Davin_Warn\" class=\"rl-gallery-link\" data-rl_caption=\"\" data-rel=\"lightbox-gallery-3\" data-magnific_type=\"gallery\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ronaldcornelissen.com\/rcblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/05\/Davin_Warn-120x80.jpg\" width=\"120\" height=\"80\" alt=\"\" \/><\/a><\/div><div class=\"rl-gallery-item\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ronaldcornelissen.com\/rcblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/05\/Ron_1.jpg\" title=\"Ron_1\" data-rl_title=\"Ron_1\" class=\"rl-gallery-link\" data-rl_caption=\"\" data-rel=\"lightbox-gallery-3\" data-magnific_type=\"gallery\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ronaldcornelissen.com\/rcblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/05\/Ron_1-120x80.jpg\" width=\"120\" height=\"80\" alt=\"\" \/><\/a><\/div><div class=\"rl-gallery-item\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ronaldcornelissen.com\/rcblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/05\/Ron_2.jpg\" title=\"Ron_2\" data-rl_title=\"Ron_2\" class=\"rl-gallery-link\" data-rl_caption=\"\" data-rel=\"lightbox-gallery-3\" data-magnific_type=\"gallery\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ronaldcornelissen.com\/rcblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/05\/Ron_2-120x80.jpg\" width=\"120\" height=\"80\" alt=\"\" \/><\/a><\/div><div class=\"rl-gallery-item\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ronaldcornelissen.com\/rcblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/05\/Dion.jpg\" title=\"Dion\" data-rl_title=\"Dion\" class=\"rl-gallery-link\" data-rl_caption=\"\" data-rel=\"lightbox-gallery-3\" data-magnific_type=\"gallery\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ronaldcornelissen.com\/rcblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/05\/Dion-67x100.jpg\" width=\"67\" height=\"100\" alt=\"\" \/><\/a><\/div><div class=\"rl-gallery-item\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ronaldcornelissen.com\/rcblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/05\/legs.jpg\" title=\"legs\" data-rl_title=\"legs\" class=\"rl-gallery-link\" data-rl_caption=\"\" data-rel=\"lightbox-gallery-3\" data-magnific_type=\"gallery\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ronaldcornelissen.com\/rcblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/05\/legs-120x90.jpg\" width=\"120\" height=\"90\" alt=\"\" \/><\/a><\/div><div class=\"rl-gallery-item\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ronaldcornelissen.com\/rcblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/05\/Warn.jpg\" title=\"Warn\" data-rl_title=\"Warn\" class=\"rl-gallery-link\" data-rl_caption=\"\" data-rel=\"lightbox-gallery-3\" data-magnific_type=\"gallery\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ronaldcornelissen.com\/rcblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/05\/Warn-120x80.jpg\" width=\"120\" height=\"80\" alt=\"\" \/><\/a><\/div> <\/div> <\/div>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Opening is the Detroit collective <a href=\"http:\/\/princessdragonmom.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Princess Dragonmom<\/a> (Davin Brainard, Warren Defever, Dion Fischer, Claire D&#8217;Aoust and Ronald Cornelissen), celebrating their 20th year of noise-making and performance-staging.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n<p>Photo&#8217;s performance: Gregory Hallock.
