visual component

A friend of a friend proposed some great ideas today - Anson Parker, a local artist who builds sculptures out of train and railroad parts wants to contribute to the evening by building a sculpture on-site during the performance. I would imagine that the sound of welding metal pieces would create interesting texture to the live improvisation.

Anson also mentioned that it would be cool to involve some graffiti artists. This reminds me of an older idea I had: I originally think that a performance in front of the graffiti wall under the Belmont Bridge would be a great site for the performance. Unfortunately, the sound of the train doesn't project well there. But this is not to say that live graffiti action can't happen while the improvisers make sounds. I need to find some clean walls and ask some graffiti experts to be on board. Any takers?


This is the graffiti wall under the Belmont Bridge close to the train station. Does anyone know who tagged it?
