this instruction-based work relies on the performers’ curiosity and willingness to practice shifting attention from one place to another. this is mostly a space in which musicians can exercise different modes of listening and attention to relationality, and so is not necessarily required to be performed for an audience. my hope then, is that if an audience is present they might be able to watch those relationships come into presence sonically and physically.

how can we explore silence/sound in spatial relationships?

how does finding peace/stillness effect how we make noise?

can we learn to fully listen and create space for curiosity?

can we use music to bring others into presence?
