> DESCRIPTION

Cordon Off the Contempt in a Word Compartment (and Other Whispering Moments)

By Joshua Kit Clayton

A video-directed group exercise/meditation/conversation by Joshua Kit Clayton, "Cordon Off the Contempt in a Word Compartment (and Other Whispering Moments)" investigates the uses and values of contempt, hygiene, language, and importantly, of whispering as a means of containment, paradoxically, through the process of propagation. The hour long video asks audience members to consider and/or discuss their own relationship to contempt and other topics within the space of the video itself.
