REAGENT & REACTION
A slide show made with delicate harmonies, catchy melodies, intense brightness and simple stories. A comparable situation to the embrace of a friend.
That is precisely what Reactivo y Reacción do not offer.
It is a proposal that interact live four musicians and a visual artist, working laconic tales especially composed for this work where the arts are combined to generate a different experience.
I walk for streets with deplorable sidewalks. I stumble constantly. I avoid nasty holes. I dodge lewd remains. Irrepressible and fateful, that mouth sucking me no end.
It runs, it twist irrepressibly, it contorts. Shout plaintively.Its neurons collide, blood bubbling in his veins. Shout plaintively. Shaken panic, starts to fly. It exploded.
I hide in a wood. I go out to fly during the nights, but still haunted by the desire to escape. I do not know of wath, but escape. I think torture is no escape from something or some way, but just escape ... escape ... escape ...
Surrounded by passengers. Dirty, dilapidated, sheltered between black smoke bubbles. Violent changes are heard. Didn´not let anyone pass. He grew ramifications of plating and oxidized axes like claws.
PAULO POST
"At the corner of Bartolomé Mitre and Rodriguez Peña I shook a shower of sounds. I forgot the wrongs of the office and my own wrongs and I entered to wet myself at "Absinth". There was presenting the "Reagent & Reaction" play. I know the owner: he gave me a program and motioned to come down to the subfloor. And there, in a dark room, in shades I got into the frenzy of sounds, lights and colors.
Behind the curtain: drums, sax, bass and trumpet, wanted to shake the drowsiness. Lights and colors roamed the curtain and felt illuminated by the projection of the kinetic figures.
After months I laugh and tap on the table and whistle softly. Rain of sounds, polychrome that roamed my body. I wake up of the routine, the flatness and stability.
Echoing the rhythms in my head and I dream with other dimensions, curved triangles and spiral roadways. I go out. I fear that the rain ends. I'm electrified. Humming loudly. I go home, I cross paths zigzag. It is a reagent that goes from round to surprise us with it´s magic. "
