At @2220arts, artists Holiday Harmony, Nikita Gale and Arthur Jafa played a recording of Sun Ra casting a curse on L.A. Nikita pierced the cadence of Sun Ra’s rant with a roving spotlight while AJ filmed. Nikita then created three images by layering all the filmed footage in a time-lapse spanning the duration of the spoken recording, and collapsed it into static kinesis. “Even as a ghost, Sun Ra has an inherent disdain for arbitrariness and idleness,” Holiday observes. “His acoustic gleam hinges on boundaries, Saturn’s rings hula-hooping Earth as Sun Ra’s tone-science, distributed as sidle, cackle, ballad and soul.”⁠ ⁠ Read more about lifting Sun Ra's curse on Los Angeles at the link in bio.⁠ ⁠ 📸: @nikitagale @anamibia @2220arts
