dos tres un / two three one (2022)

Printed Book and sound performance.

A book of poetry that travels from intelligibility towards unintelligibility, then silence and back. Its title is halfway between a musical instruction and a child’s game. It also comes from evoking and tapping the ¾ musical meter. Isn’t language, at its best, always on the verge of music, always just about to sing and play? May a book be structured like a musical composition? Can a poetry book be the score of an expanded poetic and sonorous performance? These are questions I considered while writing and performing two, three, one.

Link to the full sound performance:“With an arm of fire I enter the sea”. Performance based on the book dos, tres, un:
