Buster Keaton
's Sherlock Junior stars himself as a film projectionist who becomes part of the film he is projecting. The film features classic Keaton slapstick, along with a headier surrealist analysis of the medium of film. The film will be set to a live improvisational score by local avant-garde musicians KG Price and T. Andrew Trump.

KG Price, a member of the Western and Southern Tier New York music scene for over ten years, received his BM in Composition from SUNY Fredonia in 2005. He became involved in The Reactionary Ensemble, with Brian Milbrand, a live, abstract, collage of sight and sound both improvised and composed. His solo work has been featured on PBS Thinkbright's Pocket Adventures and Classical WNED 94.5.  He has performed in Montreal, Toronto, Chicago, Minneapolis and Tokyo, as well as, local events like "Lecture on the Weather: John Cage in Buffalo". Currently, he is an engineer at Big Orbit Gallery's SOUNDLAB and a patron representative at the Buffalo Philharmonic Orchestra.

T. Andrew Trump is an electro-acoustic musician who incorporates improvisational strategies to experiment with ambience, layered time signatures and phasing. Current projects include the sonic arts collective w ((aa)) ou w, free improvisation duo Price/Trump, multi-media performance group The Reactionary Ensemble and solo under the moniker Poverty Hymns.  Past performances include Rhys Chatham’s “Guitar Trio”, Keir Neuringer’s  “Dodging Bullets”, and with the Buffalo Improvisers Orchestra.
