> epidemic in Bushnation. From Baltimore to Los Angeles to Pittsburgh,
> Ultra-red have staged conversations with AIDS activists and organizers
> on the ground. For this special performance, Ultra-red consider how
> the voice itself functions as an object. Dangerously wandering off
> script, liberated from the delusions of the ego, the voice becomes an

> integrating real-time sound-processing and spoken reflection. The
> object voice par excellence, is silence.

> Adam Overton
> Adam Overton is a performance artist, composer, sound artist, and
> curator currently based in Los Angeles. His work is an investigation
> of invisible performance as well as a look into the hidden or
> overlooked performative worlds of the body, the mind, and the medium.
> He has been busy developing two parallel streams of work - his recent
> Medi[t]ations series which uses biometric sensors and interactive
> sound software, and a series of body-based performance texts for
> instrumentalists or spectators in acoustic settings.
