Copying without Copying is 3 evenings of events that are about what happens when we speak, or when we hear someone speak on our behalf, when we share a collective moment of hearing and maybe understanding.
No Wave, damaged garage jams and crazed instant vocal shrieks.
What might Carter and Parker’s collaboration tell us about our own performances of responsibility and liberty, whether individual, social or musical?
How do communities practice being one another’s means, addressing their material problems facing them replicating the state’s violent logic of who is disposable.
