for for two carousel slide projectors, alto saxophone with loop and harmonizer pedals, electric keyboard, and fixed media
Program Notes:
Do not disinter. What has passed is no longer ours.
Do not nictate. These slates cannot be cleared.
Do not remember. There is no such thing.
Do not resuscitate. We all stop breathing long before our time.
Featuring two vintage carousel slide projectors (circa 1960’s) displaying found film portraits, which I distorted via “film soup-ing”.
Electronics include cassette tape loop recordings physically distorted by engraving tapes with text found in letters nailed to a tree with a pocket knife in Baltimore, Maryland.
Premiered by Sarah Parker (sax, electronics, slide projector) and Patrick Flannery (keyboards, slide projector) on March 27th, 2026 at the Hargrove in Baltimore, MD
