Higher Higher Higher!
A part of Your Reality is Broken Festival
http://www.mas-productions.org/your-reality-is-broken/
An ecstatic transformation ritual. Six hours of the same song played by a house band of 21 experimental musicians: When the Going is Smooth and Good by 70s Electro synth pioneer William Onyeabor. A dance to destruction or a dance to transcendence.
The performance draws on a range of historically dispersed attempts to extend and circulate simple musical structures, across the boundaries of high art and ritualistic, communal experience.
From Erik Satie’s Vexations (1893) and the deceptively shallow musical treatments of Ragnar Kjartansson to the all night Bumba Boi rituals of North East Brazil and the Coming of Age ceremonies of Nsu in Igboland.
An absurdist experiment in durational performance which will feature performance art directed by MAS productions’ Jonathan Grieve.
