    Todd Pendu's Facebook profile

    I am Todd Brooks, better known as Todd Pendu. I am the creator of Pendu, Inc. + NY Eye & Ear Festival + Scorpio Cinema as well as a musician, writer, and visual artist. As musician, I play in chaos.CM.majik, Ghost Moth (with Daniel Carter), Abuse Report, Barkminer, and Feral Comb. I have published a book of collected poetic-texts entitled "Analekta: Semantic Texts" and am currently working on a non-fiction historical biography tentatively titled "Bouzingo Means Noise!" about a relatively obscure French literary collective from the 19th century that included some famous figures including Gerard de Nerval, Theophile Gautier, Petrus Borel, and others. I also write music reviews and features for the online magazine Foxy Digitalis.

About me:

THE PENDU ORGANIZATION
"The Aesthetic of the Ecstatic"
http://www.pendu.org

WE CREATE.
WE MAKE THINGS HAPPEN.

Action and Interaction.
Will and Imagination.
Eros and Thanatos.

Pendu, Inc. is a nonprofit arts and culture organization. Our mission is to increase public awareness of culturally-significant work from visual artists, performers, and writers that are often marginalized and overlooked. We create a dialogue with the public through our magazine, record label, and webstore as well as through creative productions, art shows, workshops, and music events in various spaces throughout NYC.

:::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::

We are a Nonprofit Organization that depends on generous individual support. Although it may appear looking at our website that we are doing very well, you may be surprised to discover that we are extremely underfunded and constantly under financial stress to continue. In order to be successful, Pendu Org needs your financial support to stay afloat. All proceeds go toward securing a future and funding future projects. We cannot survive without you. Everything we do comes out of pocket and out of love.

It is through support by individuals that we are able to maintain our mission. Artists who take risks often do so at their own expense which can be very limiting. The Pendu Organization raises funds to compensate artists to ensure that their vision can be fully realized. Please help out by donating whatever you feel is within your budget. Every contribution counts, large and small; even $5 can make a difference.

Donate $40 and to thank you, we'll send you a T-shirt plus a copy of the Getting Rid of the Glue Comp LP (Pendu Sound). Be sure to request shirt size in email. (add $10 for shipping if outside US)



This MySpace page is here so that you can show your support with your friendship... Follow the links below and go to our real site @ http://WWW.PENDU.ORG and join our Mailing List @ http://www.pendu.org/mailinglist.htm ... Thanks for your interest in P3NDV ... If you want to participate in our 'little' Cult with your art, music, or expertise, please write us: info(at)pendu.org.

Who I'd like to meet:

Artists, writers, musicians, contributors, participants... and now more than ever, I'd love to meet investors and patrons. Pendu needs financial help in order to stay alive. Hard work and Love will only take one so far... Money seals the deal.

    Hi, many thanks for your request. Your work is very interesting for us. We live far away from the central circuits of the music industry, and we're looking for some label/s for editing some of our work. More info of our activities in http://carbonoproyecto.wordpress.com (site under construction) or http://carbonoproyecto.googlepages.com/home

    Adviruz is the artist psedonym of Istanbul’s Pinar Gurcan, whose growing passion for sound is translated through her music. Since an early age, she has been listening and mimicking opera singers, writing melodies, songs and poems in which she spoke her mind and reflected her soul. All of which are evident on "Nightly Sounds", an 8 track album which is the equivilent of having a glimpse into a diary, learning of love lost, gained, a snapshot of the human condition from which we can all draw experience... All of these things are developed musically into minimalistic glitch, noise, idm, experimental music and microsounds, its influences reminiscent of work by artists like Tujiko Noriko, Mira Calix, Plaid and Björk.

    Adviruz and Section 27 present "Nightly Sounds", an intricately woven and rewarding musical tapestry. Available now for free download.

    [S27-027] Various Artists - SECTIONED


    (Click image to download)


    To celebrate our first 27 releases on Section 27 Netlabel, we proudly present to you "Sectioned", a compilation of 27 tracks, amounting to 2 hours across two discs of twisted electronic beats, discordant melodies, haunting passages, broken ambience, bending senses of time and space, microscopic glitches, pounding bass frequencies, sounds between sounds, the human voice and the audible sensation of music dissolving in acid. This is the sound of your mind's eye. This is the sound of the Sectioned... Strap yourself in and enjoy the experience.

    Also features a 75 minute bonus disc "Sectioned : Nonimxs", including 9 remixes of selected Section 27 artists by Nonima and 2 original tracks created by Silent Snow and Nina Kardec using existing Nonima tracks.
