This is a Nikki S. Lee-esque image for the brochure promoting the silence show this summer. We've settled on the haunting one woman piece by Kroetz, "Request Programme', which focuses for an entire hour on the series of silent rituals performed by a working class single woman in her home in between work and bed. While the woman never speaks or interacts with anyone during the entire show, she listens to a popular radio program which combines various styles of music and interviews for much of her evening. This is where we'll be using many of the interviews and letters collected so far, in addition to putting out a call for original music from all genres that somehow deal with the theme of silence, breaking silence, etc. Interested in contributing? Got a band? A guitar? Some lyrics or a poem? An image you'd like us to consider for the limited visual elements of the piece? Stay tuned here for more information on how to contribute. Of course, you can always write about the effect and purpose that silence has in your life at any time. Simply hit the comments button below and start typing. We've all been silent for a while in this tiny blogosphere, but it only takes one voice to get things started again.
Looking forward to hearing from everyone,
Gina
