“What Work Is, Text-Sound Texts, Close Listening, Wireless Imagination, Cooking Bold And Fearless, Geographies of the Mind, Improvisation, The Imperfect Art, Better Together”

She is Ourselves: Woolly Mammoth and Everyone You Know
Begin at the end, when everyone you know comes on stage. Stop, one hand on hip, turn. This is the Big Finish. It is odd and deadpan and very Woolly Mammoth Comes To Dinner. Recall the herd of extras on chairs who earlier in “She is Ourselves,” Woolly’s performance at PICA’s TBA:10 Festival, hopped lurchingly across the stage. Say something about The Slaves’ score and how brilliantly it laid a sonic ground, created tension, and when necessary, let the rhythm hit ‘em.
