Rambling blog post about museums and shit

Jeanne Dielman? The New York City financier?

These are songs about the Corn Belt and some of the people in it... or on it. Come see Robert Ashley's classic television opera Perfect Lives on 1/16/2026 at @whammyanalog.bsky.social, presented by T.A.P.E. Analog. Doors at 7:30, screening at 8:00. Long live the avant-garde!

I spent 50$ on this beta band ticket and all I got were no friends who would join me when the tickets went down to 6$

I look like a cryptid in this photo

I’m the guy they hired to write all the archival Arthur Russell material. They actually ran out of Arthur Russell songs in 2011 and ever since it’s been me. I’m sorry you had to find out this way.

los angeles residents near and far: come watch Terror Toons at @whammyanalog.bsky.social on 9/14, when I'll be moderating a Q&A with the great Joe Castro after the movie - a movie which truly benefits from sharing the proverbial couch with 30-40 strangers. see you there!

People keep enthusiastically telling me that NYC theaters are quoting my Letterboxd reviews in their Instagram promo material like I’m supposed to care or be happy about it. I’m not a clout chaser and I’m not from NYC, I don’t care that Anthology Film Archives knows who I am as a poster.

Bought a copy of Whistlejacket, the late period John Hawkes novel inspired by The Draughtsman’s Contract, which will probably not be as good as it sounds because how could it be

@ everyone Louis is at the beach

Come watch me play quiet music for walking by and shopping for books to at Sideshow, the best bookstore in the world, tonight!

It’s cool that ITAOTS is good enough that they let Jeff get away with all the Anne Frank weirdness. If he’d written a third Two Headed Boy he’d have probably been able to commit a murder or two.

This map will show you ICE sightings and abductions from *today*. A lot of activity in Cypress Park/Eagle Rock, including a mass abduction at Home Depot. padlet.com/PeopleoverPa...

I’m losing my edge. I’m losing my edge. The boys are coming back to the town.

I need a 16mm projector specifically so I can find out if the one reel I have from John Boorman’s Hell in the Pacific is the one where Lee Marvin pisses on Toshiro Mifune

In honor of Brian Wilson someone should write a really good song called Steven Page about being arrested for cocaine possession at an airport as a metaphor for the singer’s emotional landscape.

new music it's free enjoy evanpincus.bandcamp.com/album/ive-go...

what the hell why not i'm gonna put the song that sounds like steve roden right before the fake guided by voices song on the record

Went to an “Arthur Russell Day” event a friend was playing at. Saw my friend & then immediately left when the next act was noisy performance art where a dude kept hitting a floor tom with ears of corn (I guess cus AR was midwestern & wrote about corn?). Felt like the shitty Graham Lambkin show I saw

In better news the first single from Kiss Hello’s upcoming album SUMMERDATA is trickling onto streaming services as we speak. Listen now on Spotify (or wait a few hours until it hits Apple Music)! open.spotify.com/album/3hJEuv...

I’m reading David Toop’s Haunted Weather and, unsurprisingly, Toop is *so weird* about Japanese art and artists. We need a book that discusses American sound art like this - fuck it, explain how John Cage’s innovations date back to the revolutionary atmosphere of the colonial era, why not?

New blog post. Playful engagement with art as a critical act, explored through music, poetry & film. Stories about reading Tender Buttons, watching James Benning bootlegs, shows I saw last week, galleries I went to today & asking ridiculous Qs w/ possibly boring As. www.evanpinc.us/2025/06/01/m...

Went to an art gallery to see some works by Channa Horwitz, but their main room was dedicated to a Carolee Schneemann show. I signed into the gallery’s guest book and the name above mine was Paris Hilton. Choosing to believe it was really her. I hope she’s a Schneeman/Horwitz fan too.

At the noise show and when I introduced myself to the venue owner they were like “oh yeah I’ve heard your name around,” year of the Pincus 2025

Often torn between thinking "Tortoise are so lucky to have Jeff Parker, a canonical modern jazz guitarist, in their band" & generally preferring the stuff they made before he joined up. Inside me two wolves. Two wolves, a tortoise and a guy named Jeff is a river crossing puzzle…

Reading more Dhalgren. All the sex is so obnoxiously written that I assume Hogg is more offensive from a prose standpoint than a transgression standpoint

Discourse on X about how Andor might be Zionist because it made a reference to “Next year in Jerusalem.” Do these people even know there’s a genocide happening right now? Does it affect them at all? “I like Star Wars but it might be (((Zionist)))” - people are fucking dying, get serious! Good grief!

new music on bandcamp - collection of tenor guitar impromptus from january and february - with art by the incomparable @russoworm.bsky.social evanpincus.bandcamp.com/album/scenes...

Made the mistake of mentioning my mental health in an FB post I intended to be funny and now everyone is care reacting instead of haha reacting, this is a disaster! Nobody understands me…

Blimp weather.

Samuel Delany themed pizzeria called Doughgren where you can get such themed slices as Pineapple-17 and Hogg (pork sausage)

I feel like there should be more gender parity in new media studies where is lev womanovich when you need her

I’m gutted about David Thomas, a true canonical American artist - I’d even go so far as to compare him to Miles Davis considering just how far into the future he looked and how willing he was to push past his own boundaries into places unknown. The radio will set you free… RIP!

Starting tomorrow night I will be spending 3 days immersed in the music and culture of Phish. Pray phor me.

I can’t believe Dave Allen dying is how I found out that Ted Leo has replaced David Pajo in Gang of Four. That’s even more confusing than Pajo joining Gang of Four in the first place, which was already very confusing!

i blog now apparently www.evanpinc.us/2025/04/05/b... learn about the weird music i'm working on, the early generative art techniques i've been messing with, my infamous 9/11 anecdote, my stint with an educational therapist, and my thoughts on art i guess. the stuff that's too niche for facebook!

autechit: gotechre

They’re calling it the best little free library haul of all time

This is such an elementally perfect Twitter baitpost, I’m in awe. “Odd that otherwise progressive artists are so hawkish about a system that largely fails to protect their work, especially in the age of AI” becomes “erm, has anyone noticed artists are a reactionary class? 10/10, no notes. Love it.

Started reading Agustín Fernández Mallo’s Nocilla Dream last night - opening epigraph has to be the most unbearable thing I’ve ever seen (which I promise I at least somewhat mean as a compliment - good grief!)

gotta say that hydroplaning off the edge of the world is the best destroyer single in ages, some real big emotions in that thing i didn't know dan could boogie about so directly. we are gathered here today to have a real nice time...

finally mark frost is free to make the s4 of his dreams

making a new we didn’t start the fire every time the cicadas are reborn

RIP Gregory Markopoulos you would have loved granular synthesis

damn steve roden was really ahead of his time huh

Insane that the American Cinematheque is pulling out 4 DCPs to memorialize David Lynch when their posthumous Pyun retrospective was like 7 movies and multiple 35mm prints. I get that that was months in the making and this is a week in the making but still, hilarious, kinda awesome

STEVE GETS IT

considering an angriest dog in the world tattoo. why is there no complete reprinting of the angriest dog in the world, we need it now more than ever. some weeks nothing is funny. people are dying living here. it doesn't get any better than this. he was a poet, man
