“If fascism, as “the mimesis of mimesis,” appropriates the apparatus of magic, this performance attempts at a mimesis of this mimesis of mimesis: stealing these ritualistic techniques back for magic again.”

Moments from @anhqvo’s “a sign, a signal, a delivery, a deliverance” which can be seen 10.8 - 10.10 at @danspaceproject.

I can’t even begin to put into words how beautiful, intimate, powerful, and important this work is and how honored I am to have been able to create these images. Thank you for your trust over the years, Anh 🌸

And do yourself a favor, NYC… DON’T MISS THIS!!!

Possessed by Capital (2025), a worship dance for the Apple Store in downtown Brooklyn, a contemporary temple of capitalism. Performed by @reallygoodatmath @justincabrillos @jjjessicapppavone @toserbwithlove and me.

It’s very weird to now develop a worship dance at an actual place of worship lol

What we’re working on at Danspace is very much a continuation of this, with the same team and several more musicians!! @jjjessicapppavone @flukemogul @toserbwithlove

“The purpose of the Fascist formula, the ritual discipline, the uniform, and the whole apparatus, which is at first sight irrational, is to allow mimetic behavior. The carefully thought out symbols (which are proper to every counterrevolutionary movement), the skulls and disguises, the barbaric drum beats, the monotonous repetition of words and gestures, are simply the organized imitation of magic practices, the mimesis of mimesis”

–Horkheimer & Adorno, Dialectic of Enlightenment

If fascism, as “the mimesis of mimesis,” appropriates the apparatus of magic, this performance attempts at a mimesis of this mimesis of mimesis: stealing these ritualistic techniques back for magic again. a sign, a signal, a delivery, a deliverance revisits Anh Vo’s upbringing in Vietnam to channel the strange poetics of living under the spell of authoritarianism. There will be fabulous and sexy uniforms. There will be drum beats, though they might or might not sound barbaric. There will be words and gestures repeated monotonously, looping and looping at the edge of the voice’s breaking point. What happens when mechanisms designed to manufacture submission are pushed past their intended function and toward another kind of surrender: to the immanent unknowability of the body and the transcendent omnipotence of God?

Supported by three improvisational exercises in channeling, each performance begins with an opening act by a different interdisciplinary artist: C. Spencer Yeh @cspenceryeh (Oct. 8), yuchen chang @yuchenyuchen (Oct. 9), and Alex Tatarsky @tartar.biz (Oct. 10).

Performance by @reallygoodatmath and yours truly

Live music accompaniment by @jjjessicapppavone @isilberis @flukemogul @toserbwithlove and special guests from Vietnam

Excited to participate in the reimagining of Rauschenberg’s Spring Training (1965) many thanks to @baddgalmomo for casting me 💫 Proto performance work from the 60’s and 70’s many performed at Judson Church have informed my practice since my arrival in New York in 1975.
