Oscillating Operatics

Emily Cash - Pork Chop (2007)

Emily Cash's crude anatomical sections are tenuous reminders of physical existence dangling by a blood vessel. The pencil drawings echo nature in their obsessive detail and carnal emotionality. They're a fresh outsider perspective on familiar biological systems.

Wilhelmina Baker - Lasciatemi Morire (mp3): This is a quick headrush of a track by Nicole Gruter (of Madison) from her recently released avant-garde album "Pregnant". The echoing electronics and oscillating operatics surround like velvet draperies in rooms where candles flicker and antique dressers creak.
