“On Wednesday, June 30th Exit Points (the live-streaming electroacoustics extravaganza) is back to host its 16th ever installment! What a wonderfilled event this has been for the improvisational performance community, featuring musical, visual and movement artists for well over a year now, beaming all that real-time creative energy direct via satellite and into your very own device! The show begins at 8pm and runs thru until 11pm with two longform 40-min sets of group interaction followed by the always highly anticipated "Switchemups" where audience members can join in the excitement for shorter sets and improv along from their very own home! Organized and tech'd by Michael Palumbo (also performing in set #1 as thispatcher), we'd like to express our utmost gratitude to this outstanding human_person who bolsters our spirits thru these efforts of connectedness. Thank you from the depths of our ever-thanksfilled hearts! Also, plz do check in/out @thispatcher on Instagram to review profiles of the artists leading up to this particular performance!” Toys, Splendid Industries
“Another one of those unlikely combinations that Audiopollination is so good at facilitating, this set mixed saxophone and piano with modular synth in a surprisingly-simpatico way. Michael Palumbo is quite interested in using his modular setup as a less-intrusive background element when interacting with acoustic instruments and picks his moments carefully here. Meanwhile, Pentchev's piano work was pleasingly off-kilter — in this segment you can hear one of his ping pong balls bouncing off the piano's strings and tap-tap-tapping as it rolls across the floor.” Joe Strutt, MechanicalForestSound
"Palumbo considers the meditation as a point of opening and hopes attendees allow themselves to continue listening after the set, throughout the rest of their day and into the night. Palumbo’s set has a mysterious plan, which he refuses to divulge. He only reveals that it will take advantage of Never Apart’s beautiful two-story room." From Never Apart's May 2017 Magazine Interview
