I've started playing with Jim McAuley a bit recently, when we can find time. It's a real blast and I hope we'll get some gigs and maybe do some recording later this year.
I put a small clip up from our first play together on the sounds page

Cryptonight and the Museum of Neon Art present an evening of electric and acoustic improvisation featuring violinist Jeff Gauthier, bassist Joel Hamilton, saxophonist Andrew Pask, and pianist David Witham. These musicians have collaborated in a variety of contexts over the years, but on Friday night they will create musical soundscapes on the spot, drawing inspiration from each other and MONA's unique collection of neon art. Cryptonights are curated by Cryptogramophone Records voted #4 Jazz Label in the 2007 Downbeat Critics Poll. The concert will take place at the Museum of Neon Art, 136 W. 4th St., in Downtown LA's burgeoning arts district. Parking is available on the street, and in adjacent parking lots. Tickets are $10 at the door. Free parking is available on the street, or in two paid lots 1/2 block away.
gigs Thursday, May 21, 2009 at 8:09AM I'm giving a big talk next week at the LA Ableton Live user group monthly meeting about Max for Live. Here's the blurb from Ableton
**May 28: Los Angeles Ableton Live User Group welcomes Andrew Pask and Max for Live**
On May 28, Cycling '74's Andrew Pask, a content developer for Max for Live (Cycling '74's soon-to-be-released collaboration with Ableton) will visit the L.A. Ableton Live User Group. Andrew will present Max for Live and demonstrate some of its capabilities. For Live users with little or no Max experience, the presentation will provide some insight into the structure and use of Max, demonstrating how quickly and painlessly Max patches can be integrated into Live's workflow. Experienced Max users will have a chance to see how Live can enhance the Max experience. And, of course, there will be plenty of time for questions.
Andrew Pask is a Los Angeles-based saxophone player, clarinetist, and programmer. He has performed extensively in the U.S. and around the world and has recorded albums for West Coast Labels pfmentum and Ninewinds as both leader and sideman. His recent audio and video projects include a performance at the AK09 festival in Auckland, New Zealand, and video programming for Keri Bruno's "The God Project."
