High Mayhem Emerging Arts has been Santa Fe’s base for experimental and
emerging arts since 2001, and host to emerging arts festivals since 2002.
Our mission has always been to challenge the homogenizing effect of
pop-culture groupthink by providing opportunities for and fostering
collaborations with underrepresented “experimental” artists.

This November will be the final year for our annual festival/series at the
Siler Lane space, after which we will focus on going back underground with
pirate video show broadcasts, a weekly radio show on SomaFM in the Bay Area
(http://somafm.com/, which began Oct 9), pop-up shows at other locations,
and continuing to operate as a record label and produce cutting edge albums
(CDs and digital downloads).

Celebrate the new transition for High Mayhem at the final Fall Series at
the Siler Lane space, taking place Saturdays November 1, 8, 15, and 22.

<http://highmayhem.org/event-details/high-mayhem-fall-series-night-3/> - **A
Night of Solos and a Duo*

*Axle Contemporary* <http://www.axleart.com/index/Home.html>

Axle Contemporary returns for another night at High Mayhem. Housed in the
back of a custom retrofitted 1970 aluminum stepvan, Axle Contemporary is an
art gallery on wheels. Their 6' x 10' exhibition space features high wood
ceilings, exposed beams, track lighting and a magnetically based system for
displaying unframed works on paper.


Axle Contemporary was founded in 2010 by artists Matthew Chase-Daniel and
Jerry Wellman, as a collaborative work of art, and an innovative vehicle
for arts distribution.  It has since grown beyond the confines of the
mobile exhibition space, and also includes book publishing, and alternative
methods of creation and dissemination of contemporary arts in the public
sphere.



*The Proxemics* <http://highmayhem.org/artists/music/the-proxemics/>

Founded in early 2009, The Proxemics are an autonomous music project with a
revolving cast of musicians led by lynch pin and frontman Alex Neville (The
brilliant Dullards, A. Barnhouse, Audible Whispering 1/2 Quartet).


The Proxemics are a stripped down assembly, sometimes appearing as a
garage-based, dirty wall of sound, sometimes as deconstructed balladeers
offering you their hearts on their sleeves. Neville unites crunchy, angular
alt-rock with a singer-songwriter sensibility while never letting go of his
experimental roots. Mimicking the definition of their moniker, The
Proxemics are at times both distant and intimate, treating their audience
to an emotional tug-of-war. The songs appear effortless on the surface, but
upon deeper investigation they become a complex system of asymmetrical
forms with sonic threads and noise, weaving songs into a larger, continuous
theme.

*Steve Paxton*

Composer and conductor Dr. Steven Paxton came to the College of Santa Fe
(now Santa Fe University of Art andDesign) as chair of the Contemporary
Music program in 2003. His teaching specialties include composition, music
technology, theory, and choral music. Dr. Paxton is an experienced music
educator at both the college and high school levels and, before coming to
Santa Fe, was chair of the Music Theory/Composition division in the School
of Music at Texas Tech University. His former students are active as
composers, performers, sound designers, inter-arts collaborators, teachers,
and musical entrepreneurs throughout the United States and around the world.


Dr. Paxton was a 1988 recipient of a National Endowment for the Arts
Composers Fellowship and has also received fellowships and commissions from
The Helene Wurlitzer Foundation of New Mexico, the American College Theater
Festival, the Atlantic Center for the Arts, the Lubbock Youth Symphony
Orchestra, and 20th Century Unlimited of Santa Fe. He has worked
extensively in collaborative art forms, especially as a composer, sound
designer, and musical director for the stage. From 1988 to 1994, he was
composer-in-residence for the Nebraska Shakespeare Festival, and his opera,
Bellini’s War, was premiered at Texas Tech University in 2001.

*Angelo Harmsworth*

Angelo Harmsworth is a self-proclaimed sound artist.


“Elongated notes that bend and twist reflecting light and texture.
Occasional changes that remove and introduce elements almost
imperceptibly. Harmsworth
has this way about making complex worlds of melody that feel like one
singular note played indefinitely” – guide me little tape.
