Samuel Brzeski: Tips of the Sung

Tips of the Sung is a collection of interdisciplinary texts from artist and writer Samuel Brzeski composed over the past five years whilst he has been Associate Artist at Lydgalleriet. The collection brings together performance scripts for voice and video with newly composed texts for the page.

Centering on the vibrations of the voice, the texts exist somewhere between signification and delirium, at times making more sound than sense. The texts are full of bumbling mumbles, meandering hums, homophones, inner voices, affirmations, motivations, subvocalisations, resolutions, errors in speech production, peach seduction, car maintenance manuals, self-help fallacies, roomy echo chambers, overheard language lessons, morning meditations, and other forms of verbal rehearsal at the limits of language.
