#Vernissage lyrics english series#
LOOSELY ASSEMBLED is a research site, a recursive library and a series of public presentations. LOOSELY ASSEMBLED is an assemblage of practices, possibilities and histories within the context of publishing. SBC would like to thank UdeM’s Publishing Sphere conference for their support of the performances and reception for Cycle 3 : J’ai Besoin d’a Of North 1986. Development of the web-based project has been with the support of the Rhizome Microgrant program. The reading apparatus for Shanzhai Lyric’s “The Incomplete Poem” was developed in collaboration with common room. Join us for a series of informal presentations by participants, followed by a reception for the conference. Following the vernissage, SBC is pleased to host the participants of UdeM’s Publishing Sphere conference. The performance will also be available on our Instagram as a livestream during the event and later archived on the LOOSELY ASSEMBLED INDEX. This first iteration of the reading apparatus recasts these garments as living documents within an embodied archive, open to collective interpretation and engagement.

Positioning the gallery as a site of publication, viewers will be invited into a guided reading of the Shanzhai Lyric archive using the apparatus, in a participatory performance led by the artists. Join us on Saturday from 6:30 PM - 8:00 PM for the launch of The Incomplete Poem, a custom display and reading apparatus built for J’ai Besoin d’a Of North 1986 that allows the Shanzhai Lyric archive to be collectively interpreted. Shanzhai lyrics also gesture towards collectivity- an open-source language that embraces poetry, play and exaggerated mimicry as modes of resistance. The bootleg and the original are commonly manufactured in the very same factory, using the same, but slightly altered blueprints. The Shanzhai Lyric imagines both the “illegible” and the “counterfeit” as tactics of sabotage, complicating the relentless force of branding. Often positioned as bootleg or counterfeit items, shanzhai materials use tactics such as copy-paste, humor and mutation to both revel in and reveal the hypocrisies of fashion and commodity hierarchies. The Shanzhai Lyric is the poetic research and archival unit of Display Distribute centered around the experimental English of shanzhai t-shirts made in China and found across the globe.
Her style and iconic black sunglasses also came from her accident.SBC is pleased to present Cycle 3 of Loosely Assembled : J’ai Besoin d’a Of North 1986, presented by The Shanzhai Lyric. Her wounds made her sensitive to light and sound, so she turned to gentle music, particularly bossa nova, jazz, chanson française, and folk music. She started taking piano lessons at the age of nine and, at sixteen, she was already taking to the stage at local night clubs, singing a mixture of jazz, pop, and rock covers.Īt nineteen, while she was studying fashion at the Community College of Philadelphia, she was riding her bike when she was hit by an SUV that had made an illegal turn. Her mother had trouble making ends meet and Gardot spent a large part of her youth in Philadelphia, with her Polish immigrant grandmother. Gardot was born in 1985 in New Jersey to a single mother who worked as a photographer. Her style and iconic black sunglasses also came from her accident. Renowned for her dark and sensitively nuanced vocal style, after a cycling accident, the perseverant Melody Gardot won acclaim for Worrisome Heart in 2007 and My One and Only Thrill in 2009.
