WHAT IS THE ARCHITECTURE OF A PARTY?
When I began to synthesize pop songs, the feeling of a heart like a subwoofer in my chest and the super-specific physicality I observed in my videoed improvisations, I landed on this notion that what I’m doing is the most essentialized form of social dance. How do I take these songs, this feeling, that physicality and use it as a method to create work? I landed on the idea of a party as Rosetta Stone. Thus, what is “The Architecture of a Party”?
