cut: sound design in washington, dc

   
 
works
cut
 
this piece is the second in a series of video works by artists Bradley mccallum and Jacqueline tarry for which I have provided sound design/installation. The work is a non-narrative film that uses the artists themselves as subject material. it shows the couple cutting each other’s hair with a straight razor. I have included samples from minstrel songs and from the opera “samson and delilah” to accompany the stark ambient cutting sounds already present. It is being exhibited as part of mccallum and tarry’s solo show at the Conner Contemporary Art gallery in Washington, DC. (June 23-July 29, 2006)
