Two Performances w/Nicholas Grider, Ryan Majestic, Aaron Drake, David Earle, Elana Mann, and Juliana Snapper
October 20, 2010 - October 21, 2010
Masculinity Cycle (Houdini)
Nicholas Grider with Ryan Majestic
Wed. Oct. 20th, 8pm
Human Resources, 510 Bernard in Chinatown
For this performance I’ll restage a famous Houdini rope challenge which goes like this: three audience volunteers tie me to a chair with 100 feet of rope. Then I escape (probably). Where Houdini would have moved on, though, we’ll go back to the beginning and do the whole thing over again and again with new volunteers each time until either I or the audience give up. I really need (male) audience volunteers for this so come prepared to get me secured to that chair.
Ocean of Noise
Aaron Drake, David P. Earle, Elana Mann with Juliana Snapper
Thurs. Oct. 21st, 8pm
Human Resources
Ocean of Noise is an evening of music, sound art, and performance by the above-named artists working at the intersections of these media and work with ideas of disconnection and miscommunication. Ranging from answering machine messages to muffled lectures to reconstructed opera, each work in the event speaks to something that can get lost, orally and aurally, during human communication.
