Host of Coppice and Nestor.
Musical experimentation, postphenomenological investigations, auditory artifacts.
A continuous hollow book.
Coppice ↗
Coppice was founded by Noé Cuéllar & Joseph Kramer in Chicago in 2009 as an artistic research into the formation, development, and becoming of a musical experiment, which has been praised as “rich and highly abstract,” “volatile,” “bewildering,” “a universe unto itself,” “music that simply exists on its own terms.” Ranging between installations and performances, instruments and objects, Coppice works have been presented at museums, universities, and DIY spaces in the US, and published internationally on numerous artist-run labels.
Coppice’s studies include:
- Bellows & Electronics (2009–2014)
- Physical Modeling & Modular Syntheses (2024–2018)
- Phonography & Fiction (2018–2022)
- Custom Devices & Ritual Interfaces (2023–present)
Nestor ↗
Since 2018 Nestor has registered as documentary, photo essay, site-specific intervention, objects, audio papers, and music that has been described as “raising many questions about its nature and, as always with Cuéllar, its reality.”
Partial ↗
Partial is a collaboration between Noé Cuéllar & Joseph Clayton Mills since 2010, deadpan. About the 2022 work Previews Jack Davidson wrote, “Maybe it’s ironic that it takes a meeting of such conceptually minded artists to create something so thoroughly literal, or maybe the irony is that literality itself is rendered obsolete. […] I don’t fucking know. What use are questions that have answers?”
