Video of the performances should be up soon. I will update accordingly.

We had a full house for each performance – it was really, really amazing. If you missed it, check out the Peirogi Gallery website to see when the installation version of this piece (video and six channel playback of the sound) goes up.

I’m participating in both performances of the piece as a “head carpenter” which means I’ll be directing a team of carpenters alongside five other “head carpenters” and their crews. I will write something about the experience and hopefully how it goes over with our audiences.

We actually did this piece awhile ago at Makor in NYC – a 7 minute version with 50 people. This time around the piece is 30 minutes and requires 100 participants. I’m really looking forward to it.

Happy Halloween. Time to turn into a bat…

Be sure to post something about the audiences reaction to such a thing! If I closer to NY than I would love to be apart of something like that.
