# Nicolas Jaar works From Scratch in New York **[Nicolas Jarr][1]{: target="_blank"}** will be taking part in a five hour live, multi-discipline performance at New York's MoMA PS1 next month. **From Scratch** is presented in collaboration with **Clown & Sunset Aesthetics**, which is the "interdisciplinary culture house" Jarr runs with filmmaker **Noah Kraft**. The five hour show will see **Will Epstein, Sasha Spielberg** and **Dave Harrington** all collaborate with Jaar musically on stage, although exactly how is not clear. The show also features a dance piece by **Lizzie Feidelson** and sound & video art from CSA's resident filmmaker **Ryan Staake**. Check out this video from the CSA website. Either Jaar has a supreme sense of irony, or he has not been paying attention to **[Richie Hawtin][2]{: target="_blank"}**'s more bombastic projects. [Untitled][3] from [NICO JAAR][4] on [Vimeo][5]. Pitchfork will present From Scratch On Sunday, February 5 from 1-6 p.m. [1]: http://www.electronicbeats.net/features/insight/nicolas-jaar-playing-with-tempo [2]: http://www.electronicbeats.net/features/news/richie-hawtin-s-questionable-ventures [3]: http://vimeo.com/31415611 [4]: http://vimeo.com/user2502140 [5]: http://vimeo.com
