Notes:
Eve Nixen, author of “Day Dreams of a Dull Girl” (self-published 2016), began the November 2016 Words and Music Show at Casa Del Popolo by premiering a poem entitled “Encounters With Oblivion.” Tanya Evanson and Zenship, described by host Ian Ferrier as “a phenomenon,” performed a groovy mix of sounds, music, and spoken word in a set that included “Apocalypsiata” and “Temple Exercises” from their self-titled CD, and which featured Inuit throat singer Nina Segalowitz. The second set opened with Kaie Kellough’s presentation of narratives about his adolescence in 1980s Alberta. As Kellough described his work live, an overlay of a pre-recorded voice grew in volume as the introduction and the performance melted into each other. Before Stefan Christoff ended the evening with an original piano instrumental, Paul Dutton performed a set including a sound sonnet entitled “Little Sound 1,” sound art pieces from a series called “The Antilryics,” poems such as “The Book of Uncertain Values Chapter 1: Several Times Table” and “Thought,” and an incredibly short story, aptly named “Short Story.”
