New Text On John Cage: Latest

Ken Hollings: ‘Ideas Are One Thing, And What Happens Is Another’  

In this performance lecture, the author, broadcaster and scholar of trash culture and weird science will trace the connections between each of the words in this statement by John Cage to reveal aspects of the composer’s approach to language and the body, poetry and personal narrative. 

Please note that by mutual agreement with the event organizers at The Wire, I will not be participating in ‘Cage Rattling’ #2: The Echo of Nothing at Kings Place on Monday November 5.  ‘Ideas Are One Thing, And What Happens Is Another’ will now have its first performance at some later date.
