Ostertag is well known for adapting, for live improvisation, techniques formerly used only in electronic music studios. A central figure in New York City's "downtown" music scene, he has played frequently with Fred Frith, John Zorn, Eugene Chadbourne and others. He has performed on various electronic instruments throughout the United States, Western Europe and the Soviet Union, and toured with Anthony Braxton's Creative Music Orchestra. His music has been described in the New York Times as "a shifting, dappled patchwork of sounds that combine in clusters, circle each other in a kind of wary counterpoint...indescribable overlays that each seem to carry a specific emotional weight." Award-winning animator Pierre Hébert, of Montreal, experimented in the sixties with the phenomenon of retinal persistance in such films as Op Hop (1965); but he may be best known to PFA audiences for more recent films including Memories of War (1982) and Etienne and Sara (1984). Since the late seventies Hébert has incorporated into his style the technique of animation by scratching directly on film stock, and in 1987 he began performing "live" animation-- scratching directly on 16mm film while the projector is rolling--to the musical accompaniment of Jean Derome and others. In 1989 he performed a live animation/music duet with Fred Frith in Montreal."--BAMPFA program note, http:/ /archive.bampfa.berkeley.edu/film/FN8074 538 VHS NTSC 690 U.S. films. 700 1 Hébert, Pierre. 700 1 Ostertag, Bob. 710 2 Pacific Film Archive. 935 GLADN50869840 941 0 PFA 0500-01-6553.
