David Linton entered the downtown NY experimental music scene through the art punk garage door at the tail end of the 1970’s. Initially on drums, he performed and recorded with Rhys Chatham, Glenn Branca, Lee Ranaldo, Elliott Sharp, as well as his own collaborative band Interference, among others. He then moved on to electro-acoustic improvisation and live solo performances on his own customized proto electronic drum kit, while producing dozens of works in sound score design for dance and theater, among these scores were for The Wooster Group and for choreographers Karole Armitage and Stephen Petronio. Most recently, Linton has performed solo audio-visual work with “The Bicameral Research Sound and Projection System,” drawing on his over 25 years of experience in the multimedia arts to mark the reaffirmation of the pre-eminent organic values embodied in real-time analog processes in the worlds of sound and visual media.
