Walking Dove / Pink Dolphins. Christy's Keys

LIBRARY

For one evening at the Philosophical Research Society, Christina Marie Karr assembles Sonic Decreations -- three collaborative projects exploring sound as presence, exchange, and a practice of tender erasure.
Invoking Simone Weil’s notion of decreation -- the consensual undoing of the self, not as a form of destruction, but as a loving act of making space for what is real to enter -- this program gathers a triptych of distinct musical constellations into a single, continuous field.
Walking Dove (with Daniela Gesundheit), Pink Dolphins (with Lillian Doyle), and Christy’s Keys (with Dakota Blue) each inhabit distinct sonic pastures, yet are united in a devotion to awareness over control, reciprocity over assertion, and equanimity over attachment. Voice, breath, keys, guitar, and electronics move through attentive relational space, where individual gesture dissolves and listening becomes central.Improvised yet intentional, spacious yet embodied, the works invite a gentle relinquishing of center.
The evening unfolds as an atmospheric contemplation : What emerges when a performance melts into a practice of attunement?What arrives when we allow ourselves to recede, thin, and diffuse?Sonic Decreations is an immersive rehearsal in attention: a study in softness, transparency, and the delicate deliberations of surrender among collaborators.
