davidly
plays something called a Handsonic,
which is similar to an electronic hand-drum/synthetic keyboard,
but with rubber pads in lieu of keys. He used to play in a
band called MiLkBabY in Chicago, where his background was in theatre
as both an actor and musician. He often recounts the honor
of being able to study with director Del Close in
a shameless attempt to connect his own history with that of
a legend.
His
credits as an actor include the starring role in Vincent Bruckert's "Here's
Buford" directed by Ann Filmer. He was a member of the National Pastime Theater company in Chicago, scoring plays live
and dead, with and without his primary collaborator Barry Bennett, who, along with davidly, is the only Handsonic player left in the
world.
davidly
still intermittently makes an appearance with MiLkbabY's Tracee
Westmoreland in the Euro-duo eBabY and is not completely incapable of the
occasional brush with "law and order".
Based
in Berlin, he has often played with the Ohmnoise-led
collective, CD Kreisverband Friedrichshain.
Currently his endeavors involve the jazz-trash trio Froggy Burger, originally the brainchild of French
bassist extraordinaire, Nico Petitdan aka Kobah.
As
a current member of the artist-collective Salon Bruit, davidly has curated regular events
and occasionally hosted various radio projects, including
Radio Einheit on Pi-Radio. Along with Kate Donovan, he co-hosted the radio show "Kate Donovan &
davidly Play with Words & Music" for five years on
88vier as part of a project with CoLaboRadio.
He
sometimes rants about culture and politics in his e-diary and collaborates with animators, photographers,
and video artists. 'Devastations Kino' with ethnologist/photographer Robert Lorenz, described by Sorbian-German author
and poet Kito Lorenc as "gruseligÒ, has been performed
from Wuischke to Schwerte. The short-animation "Einheit oder Vielfalt" by davidly and iconic artist and
film animator Michael Schmacke - based on davidly's poem "zum nicht verbindlichen BŸrgerentscheid" - took second prize at the Megaspree Film Festival 2009.
