about

Inspired by The Manual, a book by The Timelords (Drummond, Cauty 1988; better known as The KLF), Mattia Capelletti and myself established for seven months a conversational affair “between premeditation and self-sabotage”―in his own words―associated with a circle of friends and peers around smoking breaks, the Way of Tea, the intensity and potential of laziness, and possible alternatives to productivity. (How to Have a Number One the Easy Way) recites the subheading of the book, which is a step by step guide to achieving a No.1 single in one week with no money or musical skills, effective to the point it led their single Doctorin’ the Tardis to really reach number one of the UK Singles Chart in June 1988.

Outstretching each day to one month while escaping the success-oriented paradoxical purpose of our inspiration, we presented an abstract sound loop (I don’t feel unique <3 I feel tautological, 2015) to be listened individually through a bundle of borrowed earphones, in the format of a solo presentation by me curated by Mattia, set up in an environment loosely adorned as a Japanese chashitsu (茶室), the architectural space designed to be used for tea ceremony gatherings (chanoyu 茶の湯) . Wordplay here corresponds to worlds playing, smirking at Taylorism from a distance, while a poetic shift oozes from thick air suspended, engendering its ontological quality in being aesthetic, or rather non-rational, non-manageable, non-efficient.
