Carly Ptak (along with Twig Harper, jointly AKA Nautical Almanac) is an inspired transplant to Baltimore from Chicago, homesteading in their performance space-cum-laboratory "Tarantula Hill" on a desolate stretch of West Pratt street. Dedicated to a snarling and seething aesthetic built up from broken parts of the discarded techno-culture, Ptak
is an expert at what has been called "circuit bending"--the practice of violently rewiring existing commercial hardware to turn it against its own philosophic basis (ie., a limited notion of what it means to "function.") Her improvisations tap directly into the heart of breaking equipment and frying circuits, with a huge appetites for directly lived situations and the sacred unrepeatable.www.heresee.com
