about

A Beautiful Song About Incontinence Neglect
digital recording of solo choral work, 37:65 min

Not sexy. Not young. Not photogenic. Shameful — only because the for-profit eldercare industrial complex refuses to afford this basic human dignity.

"A Beautiful Song About Incontinence Neglect" is a digital recording, written and performed by the artist as a full-length choral work. The text is a meditation about what happens to the skin of a body denied adequate diaper care. The work attaches a mix of tender vocals and abrasive instrumentation to a social condition rarely addressed in contemporary art.

Notes about the sound: the ‘chorus’ is a single vocalist, occasionally augmented by digital pitch-shift to create a nominally masculine tenor voice. All the instrumental sounds were made with a homemade, amplified broomstick bass played with a bass bow.
