CCI Sound system: a performance in which new material will be mixed and phased between two huge PA’s, one a precise Meyer system, the other a huge wall of Marshall amps
Paper Piece: Secrets is a performance for and with the whole audience, using paper, text, secrets, being in the crowd
Writing that shows us that, even in struggle, there is light to be let in.
