The aunt you wish you had | Jason Moran on Joan Jonas
We visited acclaimed jazz pianist and composer Jason Moran at his home in Harlem to talk with him about artist Joan Jonas’ earliest performance works, “Songdelay” (1973). Filmed with a cast of performers in downtown New York near the Hudson River, the work explores how sound travels and can be distorted. To Moran, it presents many ideas of what songs can be.
Moran and Jonas are almost like family, with close to twenty years of collaborative experience. While performing on his piano at home, he reflects on how their musical kinship has impacted his work’s purpose.
“Joan is like everything to me,” he says. “Joan listens to your stories and then she tells them back to you in another way. My role is to reflect the world that you don't get to see, and if I get a chance to show it to you through sound, then maybe you'll understand it a little better.”

    This is so fuckin cool man. I wrote as a kid and then went on to do slaps, clothes, a bunch of shit. This was crazy to watch man, like a lost history of graff. I had no clue this dude knew so many of the early NY writers. Cool as fuck. I have a book of shit that I collected from other writers. Slaps, sketches people sent me, I even have stuff people sent me in the mail from other countries. It's nuts.

    Steve has captured perfectly the appeal of abstract art for me. It is not about what the artist intended to convey. It is about the experience of the observer. Whereas representational art depicts something, abstract art only depicts itself. And, because of that, the observer is free to see whatever their mind reveals to their consciousness. Sublime is the best word for it because the experience is quintessentially subliminal.

    I don't really understand why he was making a film about other cultures like it is not cultural appropriation. It's cultural colonialism in a grounded sense of the way that film has accommodated to show us images that are not local neither about situated experiences, so finding attraction in exotic through identity difference is for me way more colonial than it seems. Also, the installation itself is way symptomatic for its context, like immersive and disparate images are the bases of the economy of experience or "spectacle". Like it's a Van Gogh immersive exhibition but also reminds of the fragmentation of the digital computers where you can see multiple screens at the same time. I don't know, this work seems very gimmicky or, at least, not self-critical...

She has an entire Verse (chapter) The Visual Frequency of Black Life, dedicated to Arthur Jafa’s works. It is a powerhorse of a book and this chapter takes my breath away, as delving into Jafa’s incredible works. Now looking for all of them and highly recommend reading Campt if you haven’t already.

    Peppiatt stated: "I didn't dare go and knock." But why not? Why couldn't Peppiatt just go and knock on Giacometti's door and talk to him? I was looking at my most recent sculptures and it was obvious thatt hey were far superior to the sculptures of Giacometti which are so embarrassingly bad, and no one really likes them, but art critics have to pretend to becuase they are obliged to just as they pretend to like de Kooning because they are obliged to. I am still waiting for Peppiatt to knock on my door but I don't think he dare knock: but it is his loss, not mine.
