Verse & Chorus is an exquisite corpse of an “I” played out in a multiplicity of voices, an experimental act of collaborative reworking, a quilt or collages that cuts excerpts from two percolating publications to form an imagined third object.

 

 


Verse & Chorus was first broadcast on Montez Press Radio (New York, 29.01.21), and—thereafter—was included in the online programme for the 2021 edition of the Rewire Festival (The Hague, The Netherlands). Verse & Chorus is archived via radia.fm; an international, informal network of community radio stations that have a common interest in producing and sharing art works for the radio. In 2024, the network gathers 22 radio stations from 21 cities across 15 countries, speaking 9 different languages.
