Performances at Anthology Film Archives by by Loren Mazzacane Connors, Alan Licht & Jandek.
Each organ is unique. The project is to find out what makes it unique.
In Ramayya’s visionary poetry, the body assumes as many forms as love produces states: attraction and repulsion, excitement and exhaustion, selfishness and the dissolution of self.
