Initiation is the first in a series of performances seeking a psychonautic state of consciousness, paralleling the efforts of Brion Gysin’s Dreamachine. The centerpiece of the evening is a reading of Cut-Ups by Max G. Morton. These Cut-Ups of his writings will be accompanied by projected visual Cut-Ups, directed by Sebastian Mlynarski; and live programming, instrumentation, and a dueling audio track performed and composed by F. Sean Martin. The evening will open with a dance composition by Johanna Constantine, drawn from her repertoire of monolithic, often nearly stationary performances that include heavy use of makeup and body extensions. Following this dance will be the debut of Mlynarski’s latest work, Not Yet Titled (Waves) (2010), featuring a score by Andrew Blakemore Wyatt (Miike Snow). The three performances will bleed together as one being in three separate dimensions.
