1. R, Adieu

   A harrowing alphabetical excursion into the world of the rolled r. Milutis tracks—and, through sounds and videos, shows—the primal violence and utopian trill of 'the most rrresilient of locutions' in sound poetry, regional dialects, and televisual affects, from Kurt Schwitters to Georges Perec to Rodgers and Hart to Charles Bernstein.

2. Substratum

   “Substratum” is an audiovisual artwork and the first in a series of collaborations by artist-composer duo, Alison Clifford and Graeme Truslove. This collaboration combines both of their artistic practices in an attempt to explore the space “between” abstract sound and image. Truslove’s work is typically concerned with exploring the space between acoustic and electro-acoustic sound, and between improvised and fixed forms. The audio in “Substratum” is devised from samples of bowed notes performed on a double bass, multiplied and arranged into rich, deeply layered textures by digital montage processes and computer algorithms. Clifford’s artistic practice is concerned with the process of translating between different forms of visual media, exploring what is lost or gained through such interpretation. For “Substratum”, she developed computer algorithms that “translate” samples from still photographic light paintings into animated fragments. She then sculpts the fragments into multi-layered moving image works that interpret the deep textures of the audio, creating an immersive audiovisual experience.

3. My Nervous Breakdown

   This piece takes us inside the brain and mind of a speaker in the midst of a nervous breakdown. Bigelow roughly maps the initial four parts of the poem on a superior view of a human brain: “My Brain Is” on the frontal lobes, “What My Therapist Said” on the parietal lobes, “The Metaphor Room” on the temporal lobes, and “How to Dream a Suicide” on the occipital lobes. The final section (verse? movement?) focuses on different types of treatment: religion, medication, therapy, and exercise. Overall, the work is richly layered with video clips, language, sound, and minimalist interactivity to examine the speaker’s mindset as a biological, psychological, and social subject. The combination of fact, dream imagery, and creative exploration of suicide all showcase Bigelow’s expert hand in crafting blended metaphors and balancing the tone with delicately understated humor.

5. A potential polyphony

   A potential polyphony is an interactive text compilation which results in an ever-changing polyphone word-image composition. The visitor can, at its discretion, turn on, play, and turn off the six sequences that make up the work. This video is part of the project Zelf worden See www.zelfworden.nl. (translation description Literatuur Op Het Scherm)

6. Come Together Now

   Come Together Now uses recorded sound and technology as an invitation rather than a mediation of entertainment. The aim of this work is to bring people together with a pre-recorded sound composition, remove the recorded sounds as they sit down, leaving them with their own space to create a musical experience.

   As a participant approaches the space they can hear a track being played that is composed of the instruments that they see in the installation. Pressure sensors placed between tree stump seats and cushions detect when a person has sat in front of an instrument. A computer program will then turn the volume down on the track being played, corresponding to the instrument that has been taken up by the participant, and a vocal track is proportionally turned up into the mix. As all seats are taken by the participants all pre-recorded sound of the instruments will have been replaced with the live performances and will now be accompanied by a pre-recorded vocal chant.
