Eugene, Oregon: electronic elsewhere

9pm, Jawbreaker Gallery, 415 Monroe Street @ 4th
HIDDEN ANIMALS OF THE CRYPTOZOO-ETROPICS
Of animals and animation the most fascinating remain the obscure and
unknown. This performance, a match up of the electro-folk sounds of
Brooklyn's Padna and the videographic collage of Eugene's C.Diehl,
promises a glimpse into the cryptozoologic and cryptozoetropic!
Approximating the audio-visual equivalents of sensations surrounding
close encounters with a U.F.O. or Bigfoot, this vidsonic menagerie lurks
and lunges in the shadows of 'cinema as usual'. This appropriately
outdoor cinema event includes additional vidsonic life-forms from Wago
Kreider, Mack McFarland, Joey Bargsten, and others, plus live music from
Eugene's Lusty Leaf! Cost: Sliding Scale $2 - 5

1,400 Cambodian-Americans are currently being forcibly deported back to

tortured, and murdered their families. Sentenced Home is their story.
This feature-length documentary tells the heart-breaking personal sagas

TRT: 1:29:00 The roof of 210 Cook Street, Bushwick, Brooklyn |
DIRECTIONS B.I.K.E. If you've been to underground noise rock shows,
dangerous loft parties in derelict areas, or unlawful bicycle events in
the streets, you might've noticed some of the members of the Black Label
Bicycle Club. They tend to be tattooed and pierced and wear
black-painted jeans-jackets. They seem to like to party and fight. And
they build their own bicycles. Tall-bikes, in particular: frames welded
on top of other frames so the seat rides six feet off the ground.
They're easy to spot cruising down a crowded avenue, or jousting under a
bridge, carrying a long plumbing pipe and trying to knock an opponent to
the tar. But if you've only ever gawked from afar at these pedal-powered
Hell's Angels, you don't know the whole story. THE MUSIC: Vaz are dark
and spooky but still manage to have an outstanding pop element. Visit
them online www.thevaz.com or on MySpace, myspace.com/thevaz Trapped
