Vid Vida Vidajena is a collective sound poem performed in a circular pattern by eight volunteer participants. The underlying phonetic-alphabetical word sequences are revealed to the group as they are formed out loud in the circle with each connecting word. The poem evolves as participants connect each cycle to the next, and thematic content is gradually teased from the strictly phonetic order. As the participants become increasingly familiar and free with the material, the dominance of pure sound from the vocalization of repeating syllables gives way to an intuitive combination of phonetic and semantic logic, in a dynamic play between sound, logic, nonsense, and meaning. -Publisher
