Puha Muristus!
Performance by Anna-Liisa Rajamart & Nora Sarak
I saw a good performance today! - on the Polymer Culture Factory Festival. There was a lot of people - "strange" I thought, when we entered the room, it was so much people and it was a sunday - we entered an empty room. Before the lights went out we were all facing the center of the room. In the dark people began humming, which turned into a all surrounding chanting soundscape, interrupted by a violent argument - voices everywhere screaming out of the darkness. The feeling, the result of this aggression - despite the knowledge that this was performance - unseen but heard, crescendo, was so physical. I want to see, want to protect myself. The presence of the other people was very strong. There was an applause, and then a scream, and then the humming and lightbulbs crashing to the floor.
It made impact :-)
