Interminacy
Tom Djll presents INTERMINACY, a collection of stories with musical accompaniment by Tim Perkis and Gino Robair. The texts and readings are allegedly by John Cage, and they reveal a side of that monumental composer/theorist/trickster seldom heard. The musical accompaniment may originate from performance scores prepared by following Cage's instructions for some unidentifiable compositions, or it may be entirely improvised; it's hard to tell. Djll's recently published collection of these stories, SHADDAP, will be on sale at the event.
