HIJACK has taken up living in Red Eye. The skyline is our view. We shove the furniture aside to make room for a swirl, a twirl and some kind of kick-of-the-leg.

How do you live these days anyway? We are experimenting in animal husbandry. We are cosplaying Lady Liberty but she is melting and trashy in an 1980s way. We tumble and flow, we dig in our heels, accumulate, decay.

We are just trying to listen authentically to the walls. To each other. We are the walls. We will show you the secret doily, our secret guts spilled out across the floor. Actually. Who knows what will happen. Improvisation is our only hope for survival. We are trying to bring one thing into a sensible relationship with another (*).

While we made this dance in Minneapolis, in Berlin, Mary Ocher made the album
“Weimar”. We loved it and asked if it could come to the party. She said yes.

Liquid vertebral dance math: two people, three goats, eight songs played twice, three narratives, one album, two shoes, one dance, zero mustaches, and you. You are invited in, to two people alone and together and together with you and the imprints of our downtowns and the memories of old Red Eyes and the ghosts of a party.
