*
This live music, narration and projection performance
is based on a chapter, about a promotional race
between a 5-man bike team and an express train
across Siberia, from Alfred Jarry's outrageous
1906 Novel THE SUPERMALE, known on Wikipedia as
the "first cyborg sex novel."
The text is interpreted simultaneously in three ways:
On FILM by local celluloid celebrities
Bill BASQUIN, Paul CLIPSON, Jerome HILER, Kerry LAITALA
In MUSIC composed by Graham CONNAH
played live by his crack 8-piece pickup ensemble
By SPEECH through the dulcet and sinister tones
of poet and master orator Brent CUNNINGHAM
*
Commissioned and produced by kino21
for Bay Area Now 5
a triennial art and performance exhibition
