Stand back and see, stand up and read; absorb a message, take in a thought and hum a song, speak the spoken, echo to the point of stepping back and getting what you need from each piece. "It's the distance in-between two objects which draws my focus" Dean Jones The performance relationship of the soundscape is controlled by the host-the narrator Dean Jones; the vessels (musicians) carrying the dialogue, are unknown to each other and introduced to the conversation; keeping the improvised sound absolute. The words are a sign; a command. To be seen to be heard; a tautology to the visual dialect; a brand name or title to the rhythm of existence; the cacophony of communication akin to driving down a highway full of neon billboards of suggestion. Searching for the message in the social forum; a collage of wants and needs; the musical personalities on a journey of an unknown entity with only a beginning and an end as surety bookends in this one night only meeting and discovery; a forum of sound to debate and collaborate and at times coexist with the host-words-identity, to discover without shackles of a predetermined sphere; allowing an environment of total piety toward discord to engage on a platform without prejudice to the character; pure freedom for space to find its place and develop a real time sense of community, staged within the governance of the visual artwork. The "One Night Only" performances represent communication in the local environment and the automatic dialogue of now! Music specifically Rock and Roll was the first global movement; uniting the world with one voice. The structure of the soundscape in "Boarded Up!" is based on these Rock N Roll roots with the formation of a gang of carefully selected; learned; and unknown to each other; alien musicians, usually associated with this genre and very accomplished in their given field. This sound genre is normally very structured and rehearsed. In "Boarded Up!" it is deconstructed through the improvised dialogue of the spoken word like a real time conversation; no one knows what will happen "fight or flight" The action is only what the local dialogue allows. Representing a real time conversation between all parties present and contributing to the discussion without the standpoint of preconceived ideals.
