NICO JAAR'S FIVE HOUR SET 'FROM SCRATCH'

Nicolas Jaar, whose 'Space Is Only Noise' was anointed Mixmag's top album of 2011, will perform a five hour experimental piece called 'From Scratch' at New York's MoMA PS1 on February 5.

The event is a collaboration between PS1, Pitchfork, and Jaar's own Clown & Sunset Aesthetics. The five hour performance piece will feature contributions from Jaar collaborators Will Epstein, Dave Harrington, and Sasha Spielberg.

Also included in 'From Scratch' will be a movement piece and video art by one of Clown & Sunset's filmmaker-in-residence, Ryan Staake.

Jarr has kept busy as of late with a series of shows for his Darkside side project with Dave Harrington. See pictures of Darkside's debut performance in New York here.
