Anaerobic Karaoke
2019–2023
Anaerobic Karaoke is an instructional piece with a program that automatically reharmonizes an instrumental to match the voice of a performer. They are instructed to read text filler words in any melody of their choosing but, CRUCIALLY, cannot hear the instrumental until the performance is complete. Instead, they must access their internalized creativity in a system devoid of reference or inspiration. At its core, the piece facilitates a brief, high intensity exercise in self-expression and vulnerability.
