rahrahree!

Kurt Gottschalk and Tamara Yadao create mid-air palindromes with guitars and speaking voices. Theirs is a geometry of oratory where words and meaning are of slippery significances only as important as the listener wants them to be.

IN/EX/D
"recordings from various places where i grew up and so on.
playing brings me to a sort of dreamland, which i keep exploring and landscaping, re-assessing and re-defining, more or less impulsively, more or less deliberately."

FOUND
"four of them are in the picture above. the first was found around the corner from where i live, the second was handed to me in the lower east side and has been mostly re-recorded in williamsburg's streets, the third was used to record the subway in milan, circa 1997, the last was found in my apartment when i moved in. people whom i know had lived here before us came from iran, portugal, switzerland and the u.s.a."
