On July 6th 2009, Janet Kuypers did a show called “One Acts.” She used a new projection screen and projector for showing off her artwork.
During the live performance at Waiting 4 the Bus, Kuypers had two computer screens and two photo image frames with rotating images in them. As The Key To Believing Bear, I was honored to sit up with the random art images below the screen, so I could watch the audience during this show.
Also included in the live show were backgrouns noises of buses running. Each piece also started with the sampling of the words “Get on to the bus” from “Bus to Beelzebub” by Soul Coughing (off thealbum Irresistable Bliss)... and during the second part of the last piece in the show (Hurry Up and Wait), meditation music ( “Sante Dei,” sampled from a Meditation Music CD) played. It was cool to listen to the music, since I was up on the stage, so close to where the speakers were where she was performing!
(I even appear in the picture they took of her in the show!)
And you know, since I was up on stage, I didn’t really check out the displayed images so much, like, in this photo, the small images left to right are of: (1) water going up stairs in Venice, (2) Gettysburg PA mass graves with unknown names, (3) the Hollywood sign in California, and (4) columns imbedded in a building side in Rome, all underneath the video playing of Kuypers talking (originally from the video Anything for the Liquor Fix) for the poem In the Projects.
Although lighting was dark for the performer to be well viewed on film, I think you can see in the videos below.
