Notes straight from Gen on the Dec 9th PTV3 New York show

Notes on the Upcoming PTV3 december 9th show Emailed to me by Gen Hi/rself! Let me know who will be attending!

PTV3 are rehearsing intensively this coming week, developing a whole new set that WILL include an expanded "Maggot Brain" and other surprises. Sam Zimmerman and Jeanne Angel will be developing a whole new video lightshow too. They have created amazing videos for PTV3 since it reactivated in 2003, for Thee Majesty's "CREATION RECREATED" at The Pompidou and for my "BACKWARDS SPIRAL" performance for the Serpentine Gallery as parts of Hans Ulrich Obrist's "MAPS Marathon" at The Royal Geographical Society as part of FREIZE Arts Fair in October. The line-up of PTV3 on December 9th 2010 at Club EUROPA in Williamsburg, New York will be the same as the last European Detour. That is:


ALICE GENESE on Bass Guitar and vocals.
MORRISON EDLEY on Drums, percussion and samplers.
JESS STEWART on Keyboards, flute and vocals.
JEFF "Bunsen" BERNER on Lead Guitars and vocals.
GENESIS BREYER P-ORRIDGE on Vocals and electric violin.

Bryin Dall and his crew will be there too, supporting as 4th SIGN OF THE APOCALYPSE. As to what our Thee Majesty buddy will be playing, we have no idea but we DO know they've been rehearsing and creating music for several weeks and they are a deeply pure expression of L-if-E and contemplation through sounds, music and words.

PTV3 will have a special merchandise table with rare posters, Psychick Bibles, art catalogs of "30 YEARS OF BEING CUT-UP", rosaries, Psychick Cross pins, Pandrogeny Dog Tags, Pandrogeny "rubrics" cubes, ONE TRUE TOPI TRIBE embroidered patches and lots of other rare recordings, memorabilia and accessories. So bring extra cash as you may never get a chance to aquire these items again!!!

Fresh off the press we have a very limited number of our latest 12” record “Alien Brain Vs. Maggot Brain” on pink and white ‘brain splatter’ vinyl!





Tremendous flyer for the show created by Edward “Edley” ODowd which will be available at the gig as a 24” x 18” concert poster. Limited edition of 46!

New One True Topi Tribe patches avalaible at the show!

Thanks! state of thee archive address!

A quick note just to state a thanks for the overwhelming support of this project...it has certainly surpassed all my expectations. I began this archive over a year ago with no real-expectations and I have been blown away by the amount of emails I receive on a daily basis and the interest in this blog from around the world.Thank you!

Gen's art certainly covers a wide span...for years online I saw many questions posted from many who had an interest, but no idea where to start, or were unaware of the different eras.There is a HUGE body of work to cover! I hope I have been able to bring answers to those seeking as well as attention to the entire body of work of an artist who has certainly changed my perceptions over the years and influenced me as well as many, many others!

AS WE CONTINUE ON...I would like even more contributions from you...I see a great many people checking out thee archive daily. If you happen to have a piece of ASTORY that i have missed, send it my way! Pictures or other info from recent events, as well as past, send it my way!   Jacurutu3@yahoo.com

Recently Bryin Dall (thee majesty) informed me that Genesis had been trying to reach me for some time. That Gen h/irself would ever become aware of this project was certainly unexpected when I began. To have Gen tell me how impressed s/he was with the archive was quite the experience indeed. Gen has sent along a few things I shall be adding to the archive here and there, and I hope is able to continue to do so, as I am truly dedicated to making this the most comprehensive archive of all things Genesis p-orridge!
Thank you..

GENESIS BREYER P-ORRIDGE – HAS NOT QUIT TG !

Statement from http://www.genesisbreyerporridge.com/

Dear Friends,


We have seen and heard various inaccurate, erroneous, even sometimes libelous speculations about why we felt compelled to drop out of the current Throbbing Gristle tour. As a result we intend to address these matters in full as soon as possible. We hope that what we state now, and later, will be clear, will not fan the flames of destructive gossip, will not seem negative and will reduce an somewhat dramatic situation into a simpler story. We want to make it clear right now that we did not, and have no wish to quit TG. Obviously there is more involved than just that simple statement. Personally, at this point of my life, my position is that the inner workings and dynamics of any band, but especially of TG, are as intimate, unique and most of all complex as they are within any family. Unfortunately, even at the level TG occupy in popular culture, band business becomes potentially everyone’s business. We all know the internet has amplified the speed of distribution of “information” almost as fast as it has accelerated the decline of accuracy worldwide. We have no interest in pointing fingers (or is it claws?) at various people or sites and accusing them of letting the cat out of the bag. Bickering is never attractive, not one on one nor within the realms of an ever expanding media fueled by smart phone technologies and laptops. As soon as we have composed a written version of what series of events we believe led to my feeling unable to remain part of THIS short tour by the re-grouped TG that feels acceptable we will post it here.

December 9th: WFMU co-presents Psychic TV at Europa -New York

Opening act will be Bryin Dall's (Thee Majesty,Boodle Boy) band 4th Sign of The Apocalypse and more!


With Genesis Breyer P-Orridge now out of Throbbing Gristle, the focus is back on Psychic TV/PTV3, and the only American show of 2010 happens on Thursday, December 9th at Europa (98-104 Meserole Ave., Greenpoint/Brooklyn).
 WFMU will be co-presenting the show along with Scenic and Edward O'Dowd. Tickets are on sale here (it is not, by the way, a benefit for WFMU). Psychic TV's direction in the last years has waded deeper into psychpunk realm, especially evidenced on their latest, Alien Brain Vs. Maggot Brain (Vanity Case label), and live shows have been a visual treat as well.
