| Burned Fried Set Aside The Meat Show, Dogmatic (1998) |
These sound pieces were developed from an earlier audio piece that was constructed for, Burned Fried Set Aside: The Meat Show at Dogmatic in 1997. The work was conceived as an audio piece that would mimic the drone of house flies moving through space. After many weeks of poking at wave forms and layering tracks on top of each other I finally abandoned the piece altogether.
Then later on, many of these same tracks were reassembled as a series of interchangeable pieces being paired with short animations that I was making. These were becoming, The 36 Shorts none of which survive in that form. Two of these tracks, Beat Time, and Critique of Track No.03 were rescued and paired with some text from Joseph Grigely and a series of still night time images shot in 2010. The funny little scab that this turned into is intended to reference the films of Maya Deren. But the images are still just mechanical contrivances, they don't mean meat and they aren't nearly intentional enough. So the sound pieces themselves still haven't found their final rest. Even after compiling them as Soup Danger, My Name is Bobby Too they're still restless little sacks of offal generated from a brisk collection of fly drones that were amended to imitate pop standards. Still, here it is that they are the most sleepy.
