This section features the text to performances. Three of them, 'WURF', 'Mediador', and 'Rhizome', are 'Sonic Theatre' pieces; sound-driven multimedia events produced, written, performed by Nik.
A marionette is offered a pair of scissors and a head lamp to see with. Cutting himself free from his pre-tensile cocoon WURF falls. So begins WURF's journey; a journey from a kind of paradisial choiceless unity into the endless tensions and boundaries of the dualistic world.
Performed with High-Xposure, Nov. 22 - 25 at the Great Hall, Toronto, as part of the Theatre Centre's 'Body Geometry' series based on the theme of 'The Elastic Limit'.
A non-binary information system is released by a Poet/Theologian terrorist and a MIT/University of Ruder Finn Professor. A hyper-text excerpt from a novel-in-progress, MONA was performed at the Subtle Technology Conference in Toronto.
Mediador is the lyrics to the current version of the performance art piece Mediador, a political rant on the dominance of democracy by capital.
The poem 'Rhizome' was the core feature of the sonic theatre work by the same name. It has also been treated as a spoken word piece on the recording 'NOD'.
