Metaphorical existentialism, or Existential metaphoricalism:

So, I’m applying to PhD programs–this is nothing new. I have two different prjects that I’m proposing, because I’m applying to two different programs. Both of my projects excite me, but both involve different kinds of work. The project that I am proposing for Performance Studies involves the way that bodies are formed and performed. The project for Musical programs involves phonography, its cultural feedback, and its interrelation with phenomenology.

My body project is the equivalent of moving a mountain.

My phonography project s the equivalent of travelling amidst the space outside of Earth.

These metaphors describe the ways that I interact with the work required for the projects.

  2. yesterday i found a presentation card for “Essay” (1985) sitting on a window pane across the women’s bathroom at Casa Encendida (Madrid). sadly, it had no performance date printed.

    quite random… i would say.
