Experimental/creative music percussionist, composer, sound installation artist, music strategist Marshall Trammell debuting his new graphic score project Pedagogy of the Surveilled with Peter Redgrave and the Move Move dancers. Developed with North African and Levantine residents living in Amsterdam, Pedagogy “focuses on working with personal histories as a way to resist surveillance.” Marshall will be playing solo percussion along with live improvising dancers from Peter Redgrave’s dance ensemble Move Move Collaborative.

The second act will feature Trammell in trio with local hero Jamal Moore and electronic musician Pat Cain from improvising hip hop duo, Model Home.

Marshall Trammell is an experimental archivist, percussionist, conductor, and composer. His aesthetics and activism are centered in social change interventions and generate new local and global ecologies that embrace improvisation as a collective, movement-building tool in the creation of post-capitalist imaginaries. Trammell’s work also uses political aesthetic theory, data creation, mapping, and collective music-and-artmaking in order to step out of the domain of traditional cultural institutions, relocating the act of co-production back in the community.
