Video Description: Color video of the stage with mic stand at Bistro 4 (Quatre) (4040 St. Laurent, Montréal, QC, H2W 1Y8, Canada). The stage, slightly below street level, is set against a full-wall window looking out onto the St. Laurent Blvd. traffic—with both pedestrians and vehicles often passing by. The windows from across the street are sometimes visible, including an outdoor sign with the word “JETHRO.” On the windows of Bistro 4, the word “said” (from “Enough Said”) becomes visible when the camera zooms out, as well as decals with words from the menu, such as “DEJEUNER,” “CAPPUCCINO,” and “TISANE.”

Thank you so much for coming out. Well, welcome to, I’m losing count, but the next and last, most recent, not last, most recent evening of Enough Said spoken word event series. Gee, you know, we’re in for a miracle, I’ve got a mouthful just introducing it all, maybe I’ll gloss it over a bit. We’re launching a cassette among other things, Broken Spoken features Neil Wiernik and Fortner Anderson, both of whom you’ll see up here before long. Before them, we have a couple of other treats, and I hope everyone is more or less comfortable, and if they’re not, that they take the initiative, wander up to the bar, pick what you’d like. Because of the crowds, of course, you won’t see a waiter with any regularity. And yeah so it’s a wonderful crowd, it’s nice to see everybody here, and let’s just kind of segue into the evening. There will be a brief pause, but don’t despair, everything will happen before very long. | Video Description: Black sweater, sunglasses with clear frames and black lenses atop head, with shoulder-length hair loose. Camera varies between loose closeups and medium shots as Gotham speaks into the mic.
Joelle Johanna and Monique
00:01:39
[Johanna performs a piece beginning with the line “Sometimes I just can’t stand the city. There’s too many people.” No microphone, so volume is low. Partway through, Johanna and Monique alternate who is delivering the piece. Laughter throughout. Applause.] | Video description: Johanna wears a black long-sleeved shirt with sleeves rolled up to the elbows, black gloves, grey denim jeans, a black belt with a large silver buckle, silver and black glasses, and short blonde hair. Monique wears a white t-shirt with thin black stripes, black pants, and medium brown hair with bangs. Medium shot as Johanna pours steaming hot liquid from brown pitcher into a cup and begins performing a piece. Monique enters and sits on a chair on the stage while Johanna wanders through the audience, passing out white bowls and filling them from the pitcher. Johanna stops at the stage to clean Monique’s hand with a white washcloth and trim their nails while delivering the piece. Closeup as Johanna begins biting Monique’s nails, periodically spitting out the pieces. Monique takes over delivering the piece. Johanna puts down Monique’s hand and resumes delivering the piece. The two performers go back and forth delivering the piece, with Johanna chewing Monique’s nails and sucking or licking Monique’s fingers when they are not speaking. Long shot to show (Johnathon Ascensio?) and (Angela Dora?) in fairy wings holding glowing lanterns approach the window outside, bite their nails, and attempt to fog up the window with breath. Closeup on the figures outside as the piece ends.

[Says he hopes the audience in the back “wasn’t completely disappointed,” assuming they were unable to hear. Mentions Johanna is a performance artist.

00:09:29
[Explains they will perform with two other Fluffy Pagan Echoes members, Scott Duncan and Vince Tinguely. Tinguely begins reading what seems to be a scientific journal article titled “Compatible Quirks: How Yeast (?) Cold Virus Replication.” Stanton and Duncan interrupt with a dialogue about sickness. All three performers repeat “too much vomiting.” Stanton and Duncan repeat “mucous and puke” quietly as Tinguely resumes reading the journal article. Applause.] | Video Description: Stanton wears a black button-up shirt with sleeves rolled up to elbows atop a black shirt, black pants, and a dark bob with bangs parted in the middle. Duncan wears a plaid button-up shirt with sleeves rolled up to the elbows, grey trousers, and short dark brown hair. Tinguely wears a white t-shirt, dark pants, and white wispy hair. Closeup as Stanton speaks into the mic zooms out to medium shot as Tinguely reads from a white paper. Duncan, on Tinguely’s right, and Stanton, on Tinguely’s left, alternate delivering a dialogue piece with no microphone. Tinguely gradually steps back from the mic. Stanton holds up a white sign that reads, “TOO MUCH VOMITING.” Tinguely resumes reading from the paper as Stanton and Duncan recede into the background.
Lee Gotham
00:13:10
[Cuts to Gotham mid-speech] wider applications of what we’re saying of spoken work performance, but some of its roots as well, I think I can safely say. So as first the widest applications of (poetry?) then the root, it feels I could take the opportunity to expound upon what I think happens here. Enough Said implies that the words that we’ve all been taking in perhaps aren’t enough, that they require some delivery, some engaging accompaniment or just the expression involved, so they’re accompanied with images. Now, that image is perhaps evocative at best, but like words, not the ideal vehicle or a good true representation. An image can represent a human being, inaccurately at best, and well, like a government can represent a people, inaccurately at best. Representations have been a problem it seems, so why can’t we just present ourselves more often? I suppose that there perhaps aren’t enough born anarchists and we’re too fond of our image, anyways, the representation. We aren’t looking at ourselves, we like looking at representations of ourselves. This is great, and a great problem simultaneously, I think. So it’s really nice when here, I find a whole lot of wonderful words accompanied by often just as many thought-provoking and engaging images, and yet there’s still space, although it may be hard to grasp the concept with the number of us all here in one room, but space between those images and those words nonetheless, and in that space I think there’s room for that presentation, there’s a community of sorts and that’s what I’m finding most magical about Enough Said.
