PLEASE NOTE THAT THESE PERFORMANCES TAKE PLACE AT PICA!

In Preparation for Disappearances to Come is a music/dance collaboration.
It is a machine to practice remembering and forgetting.
It is an occasion for us to slyly, if futilely, enact strategies to sidestep the inevitability of our own future dissolution and the ephemerality of performance.
It is a prompt to consider how our lives and works will dissolve, replenishing the cultural compost that nourishes the growth of the future, even as we ourselves are forgotten.

Choreography and performance by Linda Austin in collaboration with dancers Allie Hankins and Danielle Ross.
Music composed and performed live by Chris Cochrane (guitar) and Kevin Bud Jones (electronics).
