Performances will take place at The Chocolate Factory Theater, 38-33 24th Street, Long Island City.
Your Ghost Body is a memory palace in the form of a playable junkyard. It was built from the effort to index what remains, as psychic possession, of the landscape of childhood and adolescence, and the question of what to do in middle age with a vestigial homing instinct for a place no longer inhabited. What emerged was the visitation of three avatars who guide the player through three levels. Two are excursions into remnant memory landscapes (of age 9, of age 17). The third level is composed of micro compositions made from the pages of the morning book in which the memories were summoned (age 45, though six years have passed since that notebook was filled). Your Ghost Body is a video game with songs and dances, but on the 13th and 14th the game will unfold in the space of the Chocolate Factory and be playable live, filled with living, speaking, singing, dancing bodies.
