I love (and increasingly so) Curt Cloninger’s work.
\nThe wonderful series of gif\/flash\/loop\/glitch\/kitchen sink audio visual poems on his site<\/a>, his forays into
\ndatamoshing and his series of live performative\/endurance pieces
\nwhich, sprouting like green shoots from a rather austere central
\nEuropean branch manage to be filled with light and nuance and a
\n -how shall I put it -… a joy which is earned, which is not trivial,
\nand to which we are invited and which arises out of a heightened sense
\nof ourselves and of others as embodied beings and of our necessary interconnections…<\/p>\n

Here’s Curt’s account of a recent piece, a collaboration with his wife Julie,
\nfor which we post two pieces of documentation. (I don’t know whether Curt sees
\nthem as simply that. I think they are quite lovely in themselves – certainly the video
\npiece derived from Curt and Annie Abraham’s telematic collab Double Blind<\/em>,
\nfeatured here previously<\/a> certainly has artistic legs of its own and perhaps should
\nbe taken as something of a precedent.)<\/p>\n

Anyway, over to you Curt:<\/p>\n

“A 3 Hour performance by Curt and Julie Cloninger. Julie is pre-recorded
\non video singing for ten minutes along with Curt playing Rhodes piano.
\nHer video and audio are then projected and looped in the performance space
\nwhile Curt sings and plays guitar live. Both are blindfolded.
\nA duet across time. The repeated excerpt is from the Richard and
\nLinda Thompson song “For Shame of Doing Wrong.
\nPerformed at the Black Mountain College campus during the 2012 “reHappening festival”.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
