SF WEEKLY - Best of San Francisco ® 2005: People & Places
Best Audio and Visual Collagist






San Francisco has one of the highest DJ-per-square-inch ratios in the country: We're famous for it. Many DJs are insincere victims of a trend (we may be famous for this as well). But Rob Cole, aka KrOB, is a man following his vision so tenaciously that San Francisco ought to be famous for housing him. In fact, it may not be accurate to call him a DJ; he runs two, sometimes three radio shows and provides mixed sounds for a variety of events (the best known is the Odeon's weekly"Ask Dr. Hal" show). His talent even extends to video manipulation and other entertainments. Cole himself uses purposely vague language to describe his work: "I'm doing a multithingy after the St. Stupid's Day Parade," he'll say, or, "I'm going to play noise and shit in a band and do video DJing, too." Then there's his video work with Loop!Station, a tech-heavy act fronted by Robin Coomer, aka Ruby Iron. Cole's making videos and working on a DVD for the duo, and sometimes does projections during performances. Heavily influenced by the oddball pseudo-religion the Church of the SubGenius, Cole reflects, through his incessant antics, the group's love of free-form creativity; as for the sacred imperative to "slack," however, he's not exactly with the program. He's too busy.

The show was definitley a first...and it was great. "obey your signal", set to a variety of choices.
testing the lame fm transmitter and trying to find a compatible signal: taylor mead from "coffee and cigarettes", used as test audio... mahler in the armory, nicola tesla and "the earth as a conductor of acoustical resonance" and finally "did you hear that?...oh it's gone now", served as an interesting narrative for our radio tests. scrapping the fm transmitter 20 minutes after showtime, we defaulted to the use of car stereos to blast the record manually. cueing up every song, many times, in some cases, for the huge wall projections. for "lucky me" we had 2 stereos going. that was cool, but we should've had more cars doing the music. the continued interruptions in the power and music actually served the show well. finding the show's capacity and the combination of efforts made everything fuse and swing. robin brought her merch box of cds. nate helped with the sound. pete supplied the car that the inverter could generate from and doug supplied me with the ride to get everything there. treat and mistral, a location never thought of, until only a few days before the show, when the plans changed from pirate cat, was great. as bright as the streetlights were (we had a constant shadow of a telephone pole on the projection wall, not unlike an image burn on a plasma screen...a nice thematic bonus), the video still looked really good. and there were pigeons. a cloe moment. no popcorn and no taco truck, however. a small but generous audience of freinds and music-loving loiterers had to make do with beer and brownies. as far as unauthorized art installations go, this is one that won't be in the suckipedia. "lucky me" looked great, and "towering" got some applesauce. left them wanting more. mongo-lloyd showed up late and freinds were made. all in all, a smoker's patch for my cloe jones of burning man.
