TONIGHT: Federico Nessi of PSYCHIC YOUTH, INC. 7pm
Very excited to have multimedia artist Federico Nessi of Psychic Youth, Inc. selecting songs on MIAMI TIME, to the theme of what he says is ‘bands I’ve lived near or wish I’d live(d) near.’
Federico and the Psychic Youth, Inc. collective have manifested many performances / installations (among much more) in recent years, some of the more well known being TRIBUTE, a tribute performance to legendary recording artist Joe Meek, and TRI, a created performance environment within the De la Cruz Collection space.
“Psychic Youth, Inc. was founded in 2008 by Ricardo Guerrero, Ana Mendez and Federico Nessi. They are an interdisciplinary performance collective with a heavy emphasis on musical collaboration. Inspired by Throbbing Gristleʼs psychic rallies, PYI develops happenings that serve as ritualistic experiences where intuition and improvisation lead the usually task-driven acts. As a reaction to these times of global uncertainty and over-saturation of media, the collective focuses on obsessively analyzing human behavior and the power of the individual. A heavy dramatic intention and an appreciation for the occult are some of the components that form part of their ceremonies, during which they aim to engender empathy and attention in the viewer. “

Catch Freddy tonight on MIAMI TIME, from 7 - 9pm.
