Between Dawn and Carl - Dawn Side
We are inclined toward a socially contingent way of making art.
Contingent describes what is possible but uncertain because of unforeseen or
uncontrollable factors. This piece was produced in a progression of
laps or sessions. Each of us worked on our own medley while listening to
the others mix. The shifts or sparks are what interests us; the unseen
influences or points between produced in each mix because it was infected
by the other persons choices. This has the fortunate difficulty of being
impossible, since each mix would have to be finished before the other
could be made. A figure eight of laps is a practical way of slipping
past this paradox. |
