Rebroadcast of Jessie Cox's "Black as a Hack for Cyborgification," performed at Target Margin on October 7th. For this TUES@7, we'll start with a short portrait documentary about Jessie's process in creating this work. After the show, Jessie, as well as Simon Kanzler from PinkNoise Ensemble (who commissioned and premiered this work in 2020), will join us for a Zoom hang! Free RSVP to receive YouTube and Zoom links.
Jessie Cox’s "Black as a Hack for Cyborgification" (2020, commissioned by Pink Noise Ensemble) is an open instrumentation work bringing musicians and audience members on a sonic journey amongst planets. Each score represents a different environment – Jupiter, the sun, a star, etc. – where hand-calligraphy is intertwined with poetry and computer code, reflecting on identity, technology, and celestial bodies.
