IN 2010, THINGNY RELEASED OUR FIRST RECORDING, AN OPERA ABOUT EXCESS CALLED ADDDDDDDDD. AFTER A SLEW OF SHOW POSTPONEMENTS, INCLUDING THAT OPERA’S 10TH ANNIVERSARY REVIVAL THIS MONTH, THE BAND GOT TOGETHER ONLINE AND STARTED MAKING A SERIES OF ISOLATION ETUDES, SONGS, SCENES, AND SCENARIOS REFLECTING ON HOW A PROCESS OF SUBTRACTION IS REDEFINING OUR MUNDANE. EXPLORING THE STRENGTHS OF LIVE STREAMING AS A DISTINCT ART MEDIUM, SUBTRACTTTTTTTTT IS WRITTEN AND PERFORMED TO TOY WITH THE ABILITIES, SHORTFALLS, AND COMICAL INCONSISTENCIES OF BANDWIDTH BROADCAST.
