The 2011 Occupy Wall Street movement featured a beautiful protest practice called "The People's Mic," an amplification method by which one person's voice would be repeated in short iterations by a gathered crowd, sounding like a human megaphone. In this interactive and participatory performance, the artist will ask gallery-goers to come together to form a similar kind of temporary DMZ (de-structured media zone) using our voices and mobile devices, but in a looped and fragmented acoustic space of repetition and overlay. Please come with your phones and ready to "connect".
