I’m thrilled to join composer, vocalist, and scholar Gelsey Bell for her guided listening experience of modern and contemporary music. Each of Bell’s four sessions highlights a particular section of MoMA’s Fluxus audio archive and the Steven Lieber collection, and connects these rarely heard works to music currently being made in New York City. The final listening session will feature a short performance of our collaborative work Skylighght.

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.
