In connectioon with the topic of censorship, the research and question of the value of something that it's worth it to stay as it is because of what and how it is. So in a way something related to self censorship ?

There is a structure in the text used:

The basic structure that should be kept in the played piece have to contain:

  1. First line [the refrain]: if we censor art, what is left to discuss?

  2. Container of the text: 2 "but" [one after the first line & one as the final line]

  3. The text

input

collectively written text and audio recordings

tools

mini-microphone, Ableton, Audacity, Rack

process log

brainstorm

our usage of the notation system and the creation of the piece

1. pick verbs already divided in categories from the original text + the repetitive words

2. play around and create a rhythm out of them [see the fragments]

3. between the verbs, insert variations of what is right not to

4. add first line and containers [but]

5. done!
