about

ELECTRIC RAGS III (Alvin Curran, 1993), for and with The Hub: I sit and play their stories. She sits and hubs it. We sit and talk; codes and pianos are barely mentioned – all on the verge of innuendo until she drops the bag of groceries. That triggers events parallel to those in Sarajevo but not unlike those in Fanny Mendelssohn’s Sunday salons a century ago. The forte pianoforte – sonic citadel of the WEST leads the way into the electric bush, where aboriginal cries are translated into Sea-Sound. Doe a deer, Re a rat. “B” a was. Fis an African fruit. Imitate, ignore, dominate, tacit, and be free – this is how we play and how we hub. –AC
