EMA + TABITHA NIKOLAI: MEMORY AS A ROCK OUT OF REACH
WITH OPENING ACTS: PITY CAT | LION/NGUYEN DUO
Memory as a Rock Out of Reach is a new multimedia performance by Erika M. Anderson (EMA) and Tabitha Nikolai. Amidst a soundscape of modular synth, guitar, and spoken word, Anderson scrapes at the contours of what defined her femininity within 1980s material culture: bikini babes, Saturday morning cartoons, and the overlap between them. Using videogame technologies and commercial detritus, Nikolai creates a responsive virtual mindmap that is both humorous and disquieting. Playing their respective instruments, Anderson and Nikolai weave a novel audiovisual duet—a lush and surreal collage that seeks a path through ‘80s excess and away from American Individualism.
