High Latency Communication

audio tape: the Chicago sessions

This performance aims to give an insight into the possibilities and limits of communication and its related technologies (inscriptive and transcriptive media, artificial intelligence). The double obstacle that water imposes on the discourse (temporal and physiological limits) is intended to shed light on the Word itself, which paradoxically finds in this effort its naked vibratory nature freed from its communicative function ordinarily imposed by the code; the very object of language. High Latency Communication offers a primer of a practice that is first musical and literary, documenting the relationship of body, sound and space. The cassette records two performances captured live in the basement of the Marquette Park Fieldhouse, Chicago, Illinois and features Matthew Riggen, Andy Klingensmith and Janna Lee respectively.

This release on House of Saturn © and XYÄ edition is accompanied by a compositional score of the performance. Printed on A2, hand-cut recycled paper.
