Atechnical Synthetic Futurist Theatre for 9 Voices, For Performance on MTV
(The Laguna Beach Remix)

 

INSTRUCTIONS FOR PERFORMANCE

The piece consists of nine sections, each notated on a separate
index card. An identical pile of the nine cards is presented to each
performer.
            Performances are simultaneous. The order in which the
cards are performed is entirely at the discretion of each individual
(shuffle, if necessary, for variety). 
            All cards must be used at least once.         
            Avoid moments of uniform silence amongst the nine
performers.
            Duration is indeterminate but should not exceed nine minutes.
For best results, select overly-effusive gay men; or, the most
sexually attractive female poets below the age of thirty in Canada;
or Coach House Books poets.
